If you’re struggling to keep water flowing in your home or have noticed a serious symptom of clogging, Five Star Home Services has your back. Call us today for same-day drain cleaning in Dayton, OH, and our team will defeat your toughest clogged drains. Here’s a rundown of some of our many services to get your home functioning normally.
-
Hydro Jetting
If you’ve ever used a power washer or seen one at work, then you have a basic understanding of hydro jetting. Pressurized water is fired into the clog to break it up and allow water passage. This is some seriously powerful water; it can even cut through small clusters of invasive roots.
-
Main Drain Line and Sewer Line Cleaning
Vital pipes connect your home to the surrounding sewer system, and when clogs form, serious damage can occur. Our plumbers will inspect your main lines, diagnose the strength of the clog, and use appropriate force to get it fully flushed out of the way.
-
Drain Camera Inspection
Our bag of tricks to solve clogging is deep, and a drain camera inspection is a go-to tactic to assess how bad a clog really is. A camera attached to a thin cable is inserted into your drain and shows your plumber exactly what they’re dealing with. Then a plan of attack is put together to counter the clog and remove it completely.
-
Trenchless Sewer Line Repair and Replacement
If a clog goes along with other serious pipe damage, it’s possible that you’ll need sections of pipes fully removed or repaired. Instead of tearing up your yard, your plumber can gain access through smaller insertions to remove damaged pipes or repair them.

Steve Monbeck, Plumbing Service Call
“I had a clogged main drain that kept the whole house from draining, James the drain specialist was absolutely amazing. He explained everything perfectly, he showed me what he was seeing and what I should be seeing. He gave me tips on how to prevent this in the future, he gave me tips so that I wont require further work, and he a great attitude the whole time. Highly recommending James/Five Star to family and friends. Couldn’t be happier with the service!”
James Ashley, Drain Diagnostic
“Chris Carr was absolutely amazing! My pipes had roots in them built up real bad and I was hoping we wouldn’t have to replace anything and him and his assistant and supervisor kicked ass and got my clean out taken care of and even gave us great tips to keep up on preventative care as well. He was very informative, fun to talk with and extremely personable, and even took care to clean up after the job super well! We’ll definitely be using them in the future!”
Chris Carr, Drain Diagnostic
“This was our second time using Five Star Home Care in Xenia, and they were just as great as the first. We had a clogged shower drain on a Sunday and were surprised to book an appointment that same morning! James Ashley, our technician, was professional, polite, and efficient. He cleared the drain, checked our pipes, and left the area spotless. Big thanks to Alexis for her help setting everything up. Highly recommend James and the Five Star team!”
James Ashley, Drain Diagnostic
“Chris did an amazing job! Our system was badly backed up just days after our home warranty expired. He and two other techs worked nearly 10 hours yesterday and Chris returned today for two more. What should’ve cost nearly $1,000 was cut in half thanks to the team’s generosity—and Chris’s hard work likely saved us from an $8,000 repair. Reminder: stay on top of roots in your lines—they can get out of control fast!”
Chris Carr, Drain Diagnostic
“Very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. Unlike another company that showed up unprepared, they came within 24 hours, completed the camera inspection, found the break in 20 minutes, provided photos, and gave helpful repair recommendations. I’ll definitely use them again.”
James Ashley, Drain Diagnostic

Habits That Cause Drain Problems
Coffee grounds and grease: Scooping your coffee grounds out by hand into the trash isn’t the most fun, and while simply rinsing them down your drain is more time-efficient, you’re feeding a growing clog in your kitchen. If you pour grease down your sink drain as well, you’re setting up a perfect storm for a truly tough clog. Take a few seconds to empty these two offenders into the trash instead.
Overestimating your disposal: A lot of people think their disposal can handle anything and everything they throw at it. However, it’s not perfect, and some foods can cause problems. Watch out for foods like pasta and bread that expand when subjected to water. Egg shells, as fragile as they seem, have membranes that can wrap around your disposal blades. Larger pieces of food also put you in danger of starting a clog.
Soap overuse: You want things to be clean, but too much soap is another repeat clog offender. Whether you’re in the bath or the kitchen, if you dump too much soap into your drain, soap scum can slowly build up in your pipes and contribute to clogging.
Excess hair: Hair can cause powerful clogs if too much of it flows into your drain and mixes with other substances. A simple drain filter can catch hair and stop it from forming the building blocks of your next annoying clog.
Dayton-specific tips: Many of Dayton’s homes were built around the 1970’s, and older pipes usually carry baggage with them that can contribute to clogging. Get an idea of how old the piping is in your home and pay attention to what you’re dumping into your drains. Tree roots common to this area can also invade your pipes and muck up the works.
If you’ve pushed your sink or bathroom drains to the brink, call Five Star Home Services for expert drain cleaning in Dayton, OH.
Frequently Asked Questions About Drain Cleaning
Your plumbing questions answered.
Severe storms in Dayton are pretty common, and when it pours, it can reveal issues with your pipes that go unnoticed on a normal day. A massive influx of water can push your outdoor drains and sewer line to the limit, and if there are small clogs or other issues present, they’ll make themselves known through backed-up drains and standing water.
No, a normal clog in your home usually only affects one fixture or appliance. If you’ve got one bathroom shower that’s draining slower than normal, then you’re most likely looking at a run-of-the-mill clog. If there are multiple clogs happening simultaneously in your home, then that may be a problem with your main drain line. Main drain line clogs often affect your entire plumbing ecosystem at once when they happen.
Absolutely. Whole-home backups often point to a main line or sewer issue. We can perform camera inspections, main line cleaning, hydro jetting, and targeted repairs to address the root cause—not just the symptoms.
There are several symptoms you should notice that indicate it’s time to reach out for professional drain cleaning in Dayton, OH. If your drains are consistently slow to drain, or if a foul smell is coming from them, that’s usually a sign. If water fully backs up into your bathtub, shower, sink, or toilet, you need to call for an expert. The appearance of rodents or insects in or around your drain is also a sign of a major problem.
Older homes need more care than a newer build, but common wisdom states that a professional cleaning every year or two is a solid choice. If you’re experiencing frequent clogs, more treatments are a better idea than waiting.
