Types of Drain Cleaning Services We Provide
At Pendergrass & Holder Plumbing, we handle every kind of drain issue for both homes and businesses across Winston-Salem. No matter where the clog is, our team has the tools and expertise to clear it quickly and thoroughly. Our drain cleaning services include:
Kitchen Drains – Remove grease, food particles, and soap buildup that slow down your sink.

Sewer Cameras
One piece of equipment we can rely on is our sewer camera. These cameras allow us to pinpoint the location of your waste piping issues. For example, do you have plant roots blocking your pipes? This is a common issue and these cameras allow us to find out if that is the case and where the problem exists.

Garbage Disposals
This seemingly forgotten feature of homes is often overlooked until it causes problems. Garbage disposals are an efficient way to break down organic material so it can flow down your drain. But, like anything with a drain, it can get clocked. Once it does it’s a huge headache. Let our team fix it for you and take away that headache!

Highly recommend!!Posted on Jamie SpoonerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Knowledgeable ,fast and friendly service. Thank y’all for helping me with my plumbing problem. I would recommend this company over and over again!!Posted on Jennifer ArellanoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service! The first company we called tried to pressure us into costly replacements that we weren't ready to make. They wouldn't even give me a quote for the repair I actually wanted. The quote from Devin was quick and accurate, and it was for the work I actually wanted. Our service was prompt, and professional, and they even swept the floor when they finished.Posted on Kyle PageTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Perfect service every time. Thank you Jonathan, Marshall and Billy !!!Posted on Kyle DenlingerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Everyone wants the same things from a plumbing company: timely service, quality work, and reasonable prices. With most companies it seems like you only get to pick two of those. My experience is that with Pendergrass, you get all three. I've used Pendergrass over the last 10 years for a number of smaller jobs: fixing an old shower drain, rescuing my frozen pipes, among other things. Most recently, Devin installed a new hose bibb on one side of my house, doing the work on the very same day he came out to give me a very reasonable estimate. Devin was on time, polite, efficient, and neat, and when I discovered a small problem (the result of an honest mistake that I attribute more to my builder than anyone else), he called me first thing the next morning, came out later that afternoon, and had the problem fixed in under 20 minutes. I can't recommend these folks highly enough.Posted on Austin DeckerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Billy came out to assess a potential issue at my house. He was honest and said he didn’t see a problem yet. I really appreciate that and will use them again when I have an issue. Great company and how they work.
Signs You Need Professional Drain Cleaning
Keeping your drains healthy starts with knowing the warning signs and making smart choices about care. Here’s what every homeowner in Winston-Salem should know:
Don’t wait for a total backup before calling a plumber. Common signs your drains need attention include:
- Slow drains in sinks, tubs, or showers
- Recurring clogs that come back after plunging or snaking
- Gurgling sounds coming from your pipes
- Unpleasant odors rising from drains
- Multiple fixtures backing up at the same time
If you notice one or more of these, it’s time for professional service before the problem worsens.
DIY vs. Professional Drain Cleaning
While it’s tempting to grab a bottle of chemical drain cleaner when you’re facing a drain clog, these products often do more harm than good. Harsh chemicals can corrode your pipes, harm the environment, and only provide temporary relief. Our team uses professional-grade tools like sewer cameras and hydro-jetting to clear clogs safely and thoroughly—giving you a long-lasting solution (and peace of mind) instead of a quick fix.
Preventative Drain Maintenance Tips
A little prevention goes a long way in keeping your plumbing system running smoothly:
- Routine drain cleaning helps more drainage system issues than most people realize. Use drain strainers to catch hair and debris.
- Never pour grease, oils, or coffee grounds down the sink.
- Run cold water when using your garbage disposal to help flush food particles.
- Call today and schedule regular maintenance inspections if you have older pipes or large trees near your sewer line.
By following these simple habits and trusting professionals when clogs arise, you’ll protect your home’s plumbing system and avoid costly repairs.
