What’s Wrong With Your Drain?
Drain issues don’t always announce themselves with a flood. Sometimes they whisper before they scream.
Here are some of the signs we take seriously — and you should too:
Slow-draining sinks, tubs, or showers
Water backing up into other fixtures
Gurgling or bubbling sounds in toilets or drains
Unpleasant smells or sewage odors
Fruit flies hovering around your sinks
Water stains or mold near drain lines
Recurring blockages that don’t stay fixed
These aren’t minor inconveniences — they’re warnings.
Warnings that something deeper might be going wrong beneath the surface.

Signs of a Clogged Drain
Your Drains Are Talking — Don’t Ignore Them
It usually starts small.
A slow sink. A gurgling toilet. A faint, unpleasant smell rising from somewhere you can’t quite see.
Most people brush it off. “It’s just a little slow.”
But drains don’t clog overnight — they send warnings first. And if you know how to listen, you can stop a small issue before it becomes a soaked floor and a costly mess.
At UPR, we’ve spent decades reading these signs. And we can tell you this: when water stops moving the way it should, it’s your home asking for help.
Slow drainage is the first red flag. Whether it’s a tub holding water too long or a washing machine refusing to empty, sluggish drains are almost always a sign of buildup — grease, hair, soap, food scraps, you name it — slowly narrowing the pipe until water has nowhere to go.
Then comes the smell.
It might hit after you use the sink, or linger near the shower.
That stale, sewer-like odor isn’t just unpleasant — it means organic waste is sitting somewhere it shouldn’t be. And where there’s waste, there are flies.
Fruit flies and drain flies love stagnant drains. If they’re circling your sink, they’re not just a nuisance — they’re a sign that your drain is turning into a breeding ground. Left alone, it only gets worse.
Sometimes, your pipes will speak even louder — through sound.
A gurgling toilet after a flush. A strange bubbling in the kitchen drain.
These noises usually mean that air and water are being forced through tight or blocked passages — a system under stress.
The truth is, most drain problems are easy to fix if you act early.
But when left alone, a minor clog can lead to major damage — from backup flooding to pipe corrosion.
That’s why we don’t just clear the line.
At UPR, we inspect, we diagnose, and we solve it fully — the first time.
We know every sound, smell, and symptom a drain can give off. We’ve solved them all — quietly, cleanly, and professionally — without ever turning your home into a construction site or your call into a sales pitch.
So if your drains are starting to act up — don’t wait.
Let’s solve it now, while it’s still a whisper — not a shout.
UPR. We don’t fix — we solve.
Common Pipe Repair Problems
Your home’s plumbing system works hard every day, and over time, wear and tear can lead to a range of issues. Here are the most common pipe repairs we handle — and what they mean for your home:
1. Leaky Pipes
Leaks are one of the most common plumbing problems. They may start small, but if left untreated, they can lead to water damage, mold, and rising water bills. Leaks often occur at joints or where pipes are aging, corroded, or under pressure.
2. Clogged Pipes
Grease, hair, food waste, and debris can build up inside your pipes, restricting water flow. This can cause backups, slow drainage, and even burst pipes in extreme cases. Professional snaking or hydro jetting can clear things out safely.
3. Pipe Corrosion
Older pipes — especially those made from galvanized steel or cast iron — can rust and corrode over time. Corrosion weakens the pipe structure and can lead to discolored water, low pressure, and frequent leaks.
4. Burst or Cracked Pipes
Extreme temperatures, shifting soil, or too much internal pressure can cause pipes to burst or crack. This can result in major flooding and expensive repairs if not caught early. Quick response is key to minimizing damage.
5. Root Intrusion
Tree roots are naturally drawn to moisture, and they often find their way into underground pipes through small cracks or joints. This can block or break pipes and cause major sewer line issues that require excavation or pipe replacement.
6. Pipe Joint Failures
The joints where two pipes meet are often the most vulnerable parts of your plumbing system. Over time, these joints can deteriorate, shift, or loosen, resulting in leaks or pressure loss.

We Offer Trenchless Drain Repair Services
Skip the Digging: Trenchless Sewer Line Replacement Made Easy
When your sewer lines need repair or replacement, the traditional solution involves digging up your yard — damaging lawns, gardens, driveways, and more. The result? A costly and time-consuming landscaping headache.
Trenchless drain repair gives you a cleaner, more efficient solution.
While it may cost slightly more than conventional digging, it saves you the hassle, disruption, and expense of restoring your property afterward.
How Trenchless Pipe Bursting Works:
Camera Inspection
We begin by inserting a specialized camera into your sewer line. This gives us a live view inside the pipe, allowing us to accurately locate the issue and assess the damage.Pipe Bursting Technique
Using powerful, trenchless equipment, we break apart the damaged pipe while simultaneously pulling a brand-new, durable pipe into place. This eliminates the need for full excavation — only small access points are required.Permanent, Mess-Free Solution
Once the new pipe is in place, you’re left with a strong, seamless system that’s built to last — and best of all, your yard stays intact.
Why Choose Trenchless?
No major digging or property damage
Faster and less disruptive process
Long-lasting, high-quality replacement pipe
Ideal for residential and commercial properties
Saves time, stress, and landscaping costs
