When your drains stop working like they should, life gets frustrating fast. Whether it’s a kitchen sink that won’t empty, a shower that fills like a tub, or a toilet that gurgles after every flush—clogged drains disrupt your home or business and can even lead to costly water damage if ignored.
Turner Plumbing provides professional electric drain cleaning services across Jacksonville and Northeast Florida. Our trained, licensed plumbers don’t just bring a plunger—they bring decades of experience and professional-grade equipment to clear the clog completely and restore your peace of mind.
Electric drain cleaning uses a motorized machine that spins a specialized cable through your plumbing system. At the end of that cable is a cutting or scraping attachment designed to break up stubborn debris and completely clear your pipe.
More thorough – It reaches deeper into the system
Safer – No risk of damaging pipes with corrosive chemicals
Faster – Clears even long-standing blockages in a single visit
Cleaner – Prevents mess and backups from worsening
It’s the go-to solution for professional plumbers because it works—and because it gives you lasting results.
We’ve seen it all in 75+ years of drain cleaning. Some of the most common culprits include:
Cooking grease buildup
Food debris, especially starchy items like rice or pasta
Eggshell fragments
Coffee grounds
Soap and detergent scum
Long hair and pet fur
Soap residue
Toothpaste buildup
Shaving cream and gel
Excess toilet paper
Flushable wipes (which often don’t disintegrate)
Sanitary products
Cotton balls or swabs
Small toys or dropped items
Leaves, twigs, and sediment
Mud and runoff from landscaping
Dirt tracked in from garages or laundry rooms
Grease from commercial kitchen floors
These items may start small, but once they collect inside your pipe, they can form a stubborn barrier that slows or blocks water flow entirely. Electric drain cleaning removes the problem at its source—so it doesn’t come back a few weeks later.
Single-family homes

If you have a drain, we can clear it—no matter how old, complex, or buried it is.
DIY methods like plungers or store-bought drain cleaners can offer short-term relief. But if the problem comes back, or if your system shows these warning signs, it’s time to call Turner Plumbing:
Water pools in your tub or shower during use
Gurgling noises when flushing or draining
Foul odors near drains, especially in kitchens or laundry rooms
Backups in other areas when one fixture is used (e.g., water in the tub when you flush the toilet)
Slow drainage despite attempts to clear it
