"Jess was did a fantastic job installing a sewer clean out for us. We had a major backup, sewage had backed up into the tubs and he came out on a Sunday to address our emergency. He was very communicative and explained the whole process. I will definitely hire him for all our future plumbing needs!"

"Michael was very easy to work with. He came out on a Saturday and diagnosed the issue with our sewer line quickly and did not charge for the camera (snake) which was very nice. The work was scheduled and completed within two days which was very efficient. The price was right and we were very satisfied with Major League Plumbing’s service. Would highly recommend!"

"We hired Fantastic Rooter to re-pipe my mother-in-law's house. They did a fantastic job - even the city inspector was praising Gerardo and his crew for their work. She also needed a new water heater and sink, and those were reasonable priced. The guy that replaced the sheetrock did a great job. You can't even tell the walls were ever cut into, he made them so smooth again. And they cleaned up well, too. I highly recommend them!"

"My husband and I tried to locate the source of a foul smell coming from the sink in a guest bathroom on a Saturday morning and got ourselves in trouble and ended up with a leak. We were in a panic, as we had guests arriving Monday morning. We contacted Alvco Plumbing on the recommendation from our cousin who had given us their ad in the Villages newsletter. Tim, Jr. told us he could come by early Monday morning and assess our situation. He graciously called us later on Saturday afternoon and said he could swing by and help us out. He was AMAZING and did a thorough assessment of our plumbing issue, fixed our mistake and saved us a lot of headache. Throughout the process, he explained everything, gave us options, respected our home, was extremely clean, and thoroughly cleaned the work area when done. We are grateful to now have Alvco Plumbing listed in our contact list as our plumber and are working to have them to return to do additional work. There is a peace of mind when you can trust and rely on a contractor. Believe me - we just had a different plumber in our home two weeks prior who never returned to finish the job they started (unfortunately, we had already paid him for the job - lesson learned!)"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

As a preventative measure, hydro jetting should be done every one to two years. However, the best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age and condition of your pipes, how prone they are to clogging, how often the sewer line is used, and the type of waste disposed of in the system. If you frequently experience clogs or are unsure, it's best to ask a licensed plumber for a recommendation specific to your plumbing system.

A professional drain cleaner is a plumber or specialized drain cleaner with the necessary tools to unclog drains and tiles to keep waste water flowing out to the septic tank or city sewer for processing. Keeping wastewater from backing up into your home helps keep you and your family safe from potential contamination and sickness. These pros can help resolve nearly any drain situation in a safe and efficient manner.

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.

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.

The type of clog in your sewer main determines the required cleaning method. Different types or methods of sewer main cleaning require various tools like chemicals, mechanical removal, or a combination of both. Some of the most common types of sewer main line cleaning include:

  • Minor debris removal: $100–$600

  • Tree root removal: $100–$1,000

  • Trenchless pipe repair: $60–$250 per linear foot

  • General line repairs: $1,000–$4,000

  • Full pipe replacement: $3,000–$25,000
