Apartment Drain Cleaning Bremerton WA: What Is Included
- Unit sink, tub and toilet clogs: A tech clears the fixture and the branch behind it, then tests flow with the tenant present.
- Shared stack jetting: Water scours the vertical line that serves several units, so a clog does not spread down to the lowest one.
- Main line clearing: Cable and jetter work from the cleanout to the city connection.
- Camera reports: Video and photos show the cause for the manager and the owner.
- Tenant notices: The crew can call tenants or leave notices to set a time.
- Billing to the manager: One invoice goes to the office, not each unit.
- Preventive schedules: Yearly or quarterly visits keep stacks open, with timing set by what the camera shows.
Why Rental Buildings Back Up in Bremerton
Bremerton has a high share of renters, and Navy and shipyard moves mean lots of tenant turnover. Older duplexes and fourplexes in Charleston and West Bremerton often have shared lines where one tenant's grease or wipes backs up the unit below.
- High turnover: New tenants do not know the pipes or what belongs in them, and habits change with each move.
- Shared lines: A single pipe may serve two to eight units, so one clog shows up as many calls.
- Wipes and grease: Both are common in rentals and build up in older cast iron stacks.
- Wet months: About 55 inches of rain fall a year (NOAA 1991 to 2020), and older building lines with cracks take in storm water that adds load to the stack.
- Aging buildings: Older pipe is rough and narrow, and small clogs return fast.

Rental Drain Problems We Handle

Turnover Inspections

- Ask your attorney or the state: Washington landlord rules vary by case, and a lawyer can advise on a particular lease.
