Drain Cleaning Marina, California | The Older Neighborhoods, the Dunes and the Former Fort Ord Lands
Marina sits on the sand dunes of northern Monterey Bay and incorporated in 1975. Its older neighborhoods grew alongside Fort Ord, the Army base that closed in the 1990s, and much of the former base has since become CSU Monterey Bay, new housing developments like The Dunes and Sea Haven, and open space. About 22,000 people live here, with steady ocean wind and sandy soil everywhere.
California Drain Experts serves all of Marina (93933), from the older neighborhoods west of Del Monte Boulevard to the new developments on the former Fort Ord lands and the CSUMB area. We find the cause first and answer 24/7.

Why Marina Homeowners Call California Drain Experts
Marina is built on sand, and sand gets into everything: showers, laundry lines, yard drains and cleanouts. Settled sand needs jetting to clear.
Sandy soil also shifts under older laterals over time, leaving low spots that catch waste.
The older neighborhoods date from the 1950s through the 1970s, with laterals that are now fifty to seventy years old.
Newer homes on the former Fort Ord lands have plastic pipe with newer-home issues, and some sit on ground that was reworked during base cleanup and redevelopment.
Student housing near CSUMB and military families nearby mean frequent move-ins and heavy use on shared lines.
Renting near CSUMB? Ask about jetting shared lines before the semester.
