Drain Cleaning Rooted in Portland, Serving All of Maine
We run Maine Drain Cleaning from our location at 48 Exchange St in Portland, sending crews to jobs across the state every week. Our team knows how cold snowy winters freeze lines and pack debris into drains, while mild summers bring heavy rains that test systems in places like Cumberland County and the towns around South Portland and Westbrook.
We keep hours that match real demand: open Monday through Friday 8am to 6pm and Saturday 9am to 2pm so homeowners and businesses statewide can reach us without waiting. Every job starts with a clear quote and ends only after the customer inspects the work, because we are a locally owned crew that values repeat calls over one-time fixes.

Testimonials
What ME Customers Say
“Kitchen sink on Grant Street kept backing up from grease buildup in the old pipes. Maine Drain Cleaning snaked the line and flushed it out. Water drains quickly now with no standing water after meals.”
“Shower on Pine Street clogged with hair and soap. They used hydro jetting to clear the pipe. Shower drains fully again though it took longer than expected to finish the job.”
“Toilet on Stevens Avenue wouldn't flush due to roots in the main line. The crew ran a camera to find the spot then cleared the roots. No more backups and the yard stayed intact.”
