Types of Exterior Drains We Service in Portland and Surrounds

At Zoom Drain, we help keep all types of outdoor drains clear and working properly, protecting your property from water damage, flooding, and yard erosion. These systems are important for managing runoff from rain, melting snow, and landscaping irrigation.

Our outdoor drain cleaning services include:

  • French Drains: Gravel-filled trenches with perforated pipes designed to redirect groundwater away from your foundation or yard. We keep them clear and functioning properly.
  • Catch Basins: Underground boxes with grates that collect water in low-lying areas before channeling it away. Our team cleans and inspects them to prevent clogs.
  • Downspout Drains: Drains connected to your gutters that direct rainwater safely away from your home, preventing basement flooding and erosion.
  • Landscape Drains: Any drainage system in your yard or garden, including smaller trench or channel drains, designed to protect landscaping and prevent waterlogging.
  • Storm Drains: Large drains that handle heavy rainfall and runoff from streets or large paved areas, helping prevent flooding in your yard or property.

No matter what type of outdoor drain you have, our team can help make sure it stays clear, functional, and ready to handle any runoff!

What a great young man. He was very polite, professional, and articulate. For such a young man, he handled himself well above his age. You have a good one there.
John McClung
Problem was resolved. They were both very nice and efficient. We feel like it was overpriced for the 15 minutes spent, but that could also be the going rate for your bathroom sink to be snaked. It was $379.
JD Sanders
Mark and Phil came to look at our urgent yard drainage issue immediately. They are both professional and extremely knowledgeable. We truly appreciate their service and expertise. I need to add that they are empathetic to our (intentionally caused by a bad neighbor) situation. At this point we are waiting for one more proposal before we decide. Zoom comes in #1 of 2...

Pete Hardee
We had a very tough situation with tubs clogged and they went out of their way to make sure it was taken care of and both tubs were completely unclogged by the time they left. Highly recommended!
Ruben Gamez
Caiden from Zoom Drain came to repair my laundry room drain clog. He was upfront about the cost and gave a couple of options. When I tried to clear the clog myself, it backed up the shower, so when Caiden finished I wanted to double-check the shower drain. He had no problems doing that and showed me the best way to check the other drains in the house. Every drain flowed better than they have in years. Caiden was friendly and professional and I would recommend Zoom Drain to anyone I know with plumbing issues.
Luci Barbosa
Outstanding customer service! We had a clogged drain in our utility room and the service Adam gave was extremely helpful. Even though we didn't spend a lot of money with his company, he took our problem seriously and gave us great advice for taking care of it. If we have problems with our drains in the future, we'll know who to call for getting it fixed. Thanks so much!
Jeff Dunford
Dan and Mark were WONDERFUL. Very knowledgeable and helped fix our problem while giving good advice moving forward! Also, it was so awesome how fast they came out!

Alfonso did an excellent job! It was late at night, and he showed up within an hour of my request. He was professional, quick, and got the job done right. Highly recommend!
An Nguyen
Amazing service from Zoom Drain. We had a horribly clogged kitchen sink and the backwater was flowing out of our washing machine drain pipe. A nightmare to wake up to. We called a few places and Zoom Drain had immediate availability and sent Dan, who is an expert in his trade! He was knowledgeable and efficient, and gave us tips on how to properly use a garbage disposal and how to check water flow outside of our house. We will absolutely be calling them again for future drain and sewer issues. Highly recommend Zoom Drain!
Itzel Chavez
Great communication skills and clean work. He would communicate everything he did. Opened the drains and cleaned up afterwards.
