Reliable drain cleaning and sewer services for Lakewood's diverse mix of residential neighborhoods and commercial properties.
Lakewood is a city of contrasts — established residential neighborhoods built around its namesake lakes, newer commercial corridors along Steilacoom and 100th Street SW, and a high concentration of multi-family and military-adjacent housing near Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Each of these environments brings its own drain challenges, and D Street Drains has the experience to handle all of them.
Many of Lakewood's residential areas developed in the post-WWII era, when standard practice was to install terra cotta or orangeburg sewer laterals. Orangeburg pipe — made from pressed wood pulp and pitch — was widely used through the 1970s and has a known tendency to deform, collapse, and fail as it ages. If your home was built before 1980 and has never had a sewer inspection, this is worth knowing about before you're dealing with a sewage backup instead of a slow drain.
The area's numerous lakes, wetlands, and high soil moisture also accelerate root intrusion into lateral lines. Our combination of hydro-jetting and camera inspection gives Lakewood homeowners a clear picture of what's happening underground — and a realistic plan to address it. We also serve Lakewood's commercial corridors, including restaurants needing grease trap service and multi-tenant buildings with complex drain systems.
"My main sewer line was backed up from an ongoing root issue. Denero came out the same day and hydro jetted my sewer line. Great pricing compared to what I've paid before — and he left me a video showing the line was clear. Amazing service."
"Denero was prompt, professional, and fairly priced. I called him early on a Monday morning and he had our disposal replaced before noon. I will call D Street again for any future plumbing needs."
"He was extremely helpful fixing our issue and did so generously and with good humor. After recognizing Denero from a past service at another company, I absolutely know who to call from now on!"
Our Fircrest base is under 10 minutes from most of Lakewood. Same-day service is standard, and we can often arrive within a few hours of your call. Weekend and evening emergency service is available at no extra dispatch fee. Call (206) 948-0851 and we'll give you a realistic ETA right away.
Orangeburg pipe — made from pressed wood pulp and pitch — was installed through the 1970s and is known to deform and collapse with age. If your home was built before 1980 and you've never had a sewer camera inspection, we'd recommend scheduling one. Knowing the condition of your lateral before you have a sewage backup is far better than finding out during one. We run the camera and give you an honest, documented assessment.
