Our Gateway technician evaluates your drain problem — slow flow, backup, or complete blockage — and selects the most effective cleaning approach for your pipe type and clog condition.
Scranton Sewer Authority clears your Gateway drains using commercial-grade equipment that goes far beyond what a household plunger or chemical cleaner can do. We remove the entire blockage, not just punch a hole through it.
After clearing, we run a camera to verify the drain is fully open and check for any pipe damage or conditions that could cause future clogs.
Our Gateway technician leaves your home clean and provides advice on preventing future clogs based on what we found in your drains. Simple habits make a big difference in drain health.

Honest reviews from property owners who chose Scranton Sewer Authority for their sewer and drain needs.
"Emergency call at 11pm for a sewer backup. They answered the phone on the second ring and had a crew at our house before midnight. The backup was cleared and the mess was cleaned up by 2am. Absolutely saved us."
"Our kitchen drain had been slow for weeks. The technician used a camera to find a grease buildup about 30 feet down the line, then hydro jetted the whole thing. Drains faster than it has in years. Great service."
"This company installed a cleanout for us after we had repeated backup issues. Now maintenance is easy and we have not had a backup since. Should have done this years ago."
