Kitchen Drain Cleaning in Katy — Grease, Buildup & Slow Drains Cleared Right
A slow or backed-up kitchen drain usually means grease, soap film, and food particles have built up inside the line — a gradual process that gets worse with every use.

We clear kitchen drains thoroughly using the right method for your situation, and we tell you what we found before doing anything.

📞 (281) 829-9828Why Kitchen Drains Clog
Cooking grease is the primary culprit. It flows down the drain as liquid but solidifies on cool pipe walls and catches food particles with every use. Over months, this narrows the line until flow slows to a trickle — or stops completely.
Older Katy Homes & Cast Iron Pipes
Many homes built in Katy before the 1990s have cast iron drain lines under the slab. These corrode over time and develop rough interior walls that hold grease and scale far more than modern PVC. We account for this during inspection and clear the line safely.
Garbage Disposal Drain Issues
Disposal units don’t clean the drain — they just break up food. If your disposal line is slow or backing up, the clog is usually in the P-trap or further down the drain. We inspect and clear the full kitchen drain line, not just the section under the sink.
Camera Inspection for Recurring Clogs
If your kitchen drain keeps clogging every few months, a camera inspection shows us exactly what’s happening inside the pipe — heavy grease buildup, a partial collapse, or a belly in the line that traps debris. This prevents unnecessary repeat service calls.
Hydro-Jetting for Heavy Grease
Standard cable snaking punches a hole through a clog but leaves grease coating the pipe walls. Hydro-jetting scours the interior of the line with high-pressure water, fully restoring flow. We recommend it when grease buildup is heavy or the clog keeps returning.
Light Commercial Kitchen Drains
We serve restaurants and food-service businesses in Katy and West Houston. Grease trap line maintenance, floor drain clearing, and commercial kitchen drain cleaning are within our scope. We work around your schedule to minimize disruption.

Kitchen Drain FAQs — Katy, TX
Can I pour boiling water down my kitchen drain to dissolve grease?
Hot water can temporarily loosen grease, but it usually just moves the blockage further down the line rather than clearing it. If your drain is slow, it’s better to have the line inspected so the buildup is actually removed rather than relocated.
How often should kitchen drains be professionally cleaned?
For most Katy households, a professional cleaning every one to two years keeps kitchen lines clear. Households that cook frequently or have older cast iron pipes may benefit from more regular service.
Is my garbage disposal causing my slow drain?
The disposal itself is rarely the problem — it’s the drain line behind it. If the drain is slow regardless of the disposal being on or off, the blockage is in the pipe, not the unit. We inspect the full line, not just the drain opening.
Will hydro-jetting damage my kitchen pipes?
Not when done properly after a camera inspection. We confirm pipe condition before recommending high-pressure cleaning. For pipes that show signs of deterioration, we use cable snaking instead and discuss your options with you.
Do you clean floor drains in commercial kitchens?
Yes. We serve restaurants and food-service businesses in Katy and West Houston. Floor drains, grease lines, and main kitchen drain lines are all within scope. Call us to schedule around your operating hours.
A slow kitchen drain is easy to ignore until it’s completely blocked. Ory’s will inspect the line, give you a clear estimate, and clean it the right way — thoroughly, not just temporarily. No pressure, no surprises.
