Gretna sits on the West Bank in Jefferson Parish with a population of 41,650 and a stock of older homes concentrated in Downtown Gretna and McDonoghville. These properties often feature aging pipes that collect grease, roots, and sediment carried by the humid subtropical climate and periodic flooding from the Mississippi River Levee.
Residents along US-90 and LA-23 frequently request drain cleaning after heavy rains or hurricane season backups. Our teams based at 184 Glenwood Dr in Monroe schedule service calls to cover Gretna, Marrero, and New Orleans with the same equipment and methods used across the rest of Louisiana.
We focus on clearing main lines and lateral drains without unnecessary excavation, matching the access realities of narrow historic streets and the permit expectations of Jefferson Parish.
