"Jared responded very quickly, was very professional, and let me know that while he had other calls in front of me, I was a priority and that he would make sure he came out to fix my problem. He was up front about the process and the pricing every step of the way. My situation turned out to be much more involved than originally expected. He explained the diagnostic process so that I could understand what he was doing and why he was doing it. His work was thorough, careful, and he even insisted on cleaning up the floors throughout the house before he left. He went above and beyond and I appreciate everything he did and how exceptionally professional he was throughout! Very much worth the very reasonable cost and I will always use him for any other plumbing issue I encounter. Highly recommend!!!"

"Very responsive and professional. Explained issue and solution in detail. Uses quality Rigid equipment. Unclogged our sewer pipe, scoped with a camera and cut roots with a water cutter for a fair price on any day, but even better for a Sunday morning."

"In March 2020, Clean Team Plumbing repiped our home and installed a tankless water heater. Brad was professional and honest. Our service technicians Artis and Lazurus were great and their workmanship was beyond reproach. All my questions and concerns were answered timely and professionally. The drywall team was top notch. Thank you Clean Team Plumbing for the great job."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

A sewer cleanout typically looks like a white or gray PVC pipe with a removable cap. It's often located either in your yard or basement, depending on your home's plumbing configuration. The cleanout pipe is designed to provide easy access to your sewer system for maintenance and inspections. It may be flush with the ground or slightly elevated, making it distinguishable from other pipes. When you remove the cap, you can access the sewer line directly or determine its direction, which can be helpful when you need to locate your sewer line from your house to the street.

Simple blockages can be cleared using household plungers or manual snakes, provided no severe plumbing issues exist.

There are a few things that can happen to your sewer system if you don’t fix it. These include rainwater entering it and causing rust and corrosion, dirt and debris leading to blockages, small animals getting stuck inside and clogging your sewer line or entering your home, and shortening the sewer system’s life span. 

Without a cap, nothing prevents toxic and non-toxic gasses like methane and hydrogen sulfide from slowly escaping your sewer system and entering your home and the surrounding atmosphere, resulting in a foul sewer odor throughout your house.

The cost to unclog a drain varies based on the location and severity of the clog. For simple clogs within your home, such as in a sink, toilet, or shower, hiring a plumber typically costs between $110 and $350, with an average of around $200. Snaking a toilet or sink usually costs between $110 and $275, while a bathtub or shower clog costs about $225.

For a more serious clog in the main sewer line, the cost is higher. Clearing a main line clog generally costs between $200 and $600, with an average of about $380. However, prices can range from as low as $100 for snaking a minor clog to over $1,600, particularly if advanced methods like video inspection and hydrojetting are needed for a large or hard-to-reach blockage. Some severe main line clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear depending on factors like the cause of the clog, its distance from an accessible cleanout, and whether the pipe is located beneath an occupied space (e.g., in an apartment building). You may be able to save money on minor clogs by using a drain snake or bladder yourself.

Bleach isn’t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn’t useful in this situation because it won’t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda.
