Motorized Rooting and Drain Snaking

Using powerful drain augers to grind and extract intrusive tree roots or other obstructions

I found another top-notch article on drain maintenance over at uncloggingdrains101.com. This time they explain how drain service professionals use motorized drain rooters to maintain drains clear of build up.
