Sewer and Drain Services in Oregon City
Oregon City’s sewer and drain infrastructure includes over 138 miles of gravity pipelines and 14 pump stations that serve a community of nearly 33,000 residents and a variety of local businesses. Much of this system was built after 1980, using PVC piping that requires specialized maintenance to handle common issues like root intrusion, pipe separation, and sediment buildup. The city is also actively investing in improvements, such as the recent Molalla Avenue sanitary sewer rehab project, to address inflow and infiltration problems that affect sewer capacity and performance.
Zoom Drain of Portland focuses exclusively on the challenges unique to Oregon City’s sewer and drain systems. Our technicians specialize in identifying and resolving issues typical in this environment, including clogged lines caused by tree roots, sediment accumulation, and the impacts of the area’s soil conditions on underground pipes. Unlike general plumbers, our team uses advanced technology such as CCTV inspections and high-pressure hydro jetting to offer targeted, effective solutions.
This specialization allows Zoom Drain to diagnose problems accurately and provide repairs that minimize disruption to your property while maximizing the longevity of your sewer and drain systems. Whether for residential homes or commercial properties in Oregon City, our technicians bring focused expertise to keep your systems running smoothly and efficiently.

Our FAQs
-
To prevent clogs, avoid putting the following down your kitchen sink:
- Grease, oil, or fat (FOG).
- Coffee grounds.
- Eggshells or food scraps.
- Fibrous vegetables (like celery or corn husks).
- Pasta, rice, or other starchy foods.
-

-
A cleanout is a pipe fitting that provides easy access for drain cleaning. If your plumbing system doesn't already have one, Zoom Drain can install a cleanout, which can save you time and money when clearing future blockages.
-
Sewer lining is a trenchless method of repairing damaged pipes by inserting a liner into the existing pipe. The liner hardens into a new pipe, sealing any cracks or leaks. It’s less invasive and often more cost-effective than traditional sewer replacement.
-
Signs that your sewer line may need repair or replacement include:
- Persistent slow drains or backups.
- Unpleasant odors coming from your drains.
- Wet spots or patches of lush greenery in your yard (indicating leaks).
- Gurgling sounds in your toilet or sinks. Zoom Drain provides comprehensive sewer repair, lining, and replacement services.
-
A malfunctioning sewage pump may show signs like:
- Sewage backup or slow draining.
- Foul odors or gurgling noises.
- Inconsistent or no pump operation. Regular inspections and maintenance can prevent costly failures.
-
Signs of sump pump issues include:
- Water pooling around the sump pump area.
- Strange noises when the pump operates.
- Pump not turning on or off properly.
- Water not being pumped out effectively. Zoom Drain can inspect and provide repair or replacement services.
-
Jetting from the roof vent involves sending high-pressure water through your drain lines starting from the roof vent, which clears out blockages from the top of the pipes. This technique can reach clogs that are deep within the system, particularly for stubborn, hard-to-reach blockages.
-
Hydrojetting is a technique where high-pressure water is used to clean drains. It’s especially effective for removing grease, debris, and tree roots. This method is ideal for tougher clogs that can't be easily cleared with standard tools.
-
Zoom Drain uses advanced tools like:
- Hydrojetting machines for powerful, high-pressure water cleaning.
- Sewer cameras to inspect and locate blockages deep within your pipes.
- Locators to precisely find and identify issues underground or behind walls.
- Traditional augers for mechanical drain clearing when necessary.
