Customers say: Quick response

"First we had a backup of our sewer into the kitchen sink. When they came out to clear the blockage, we found out that there was a break in our sewer line - an offset allowed the sewer to back up. Using a camera and other technology, they were able to locate the break - precisely - it was 9 feet below the surface. Working around the rain, the following people put their heart and sole into getting it fixed. Gabriel was in charge of the group - Frank ran the camera crew, Raul dug the hole down past the gas line, electric and water lines. Francisco and Martin did the power flush after the line was repaired. These guys worked IN THE RAIN to get the job completed in a timely manner. After RAUL dug below the service lines, a backhoe was used to complete the hole. I'm sorry, but I cannot remember the name of the operator of the backhoe. Again, superb work. As I'm sure you can tell - I am very pleased with this crew. Robert M. Irvin"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Service! Highly Recommend! I can’t say enough good things about this plumber! I had a major sewer main blockage that was causing a big headache, and he showed up quickly, diagnosed the problem right away, and got everything cleared fast. He explained everything in detail so I actually understood what was going on, and his honesty and professionalism really stood out. Not only did he do an amazing job, but his price was very fair compared to other quotes I received — no hidden fees, no upselling, just straight-up great service. You can tell he truly cares about helping his customers and takes pride in his work. If you’re looking for a plumber who’s reliable, skilled, and honest, this is the guy to call. I’ll definitely be recommending him to everyone I know and keeping his number saved for the future!"

"I recently hired this plumber to install a new sewer line, and I couldn?t be more impressed with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the final inspection, everything was handled professionally and efficiently. They clearly explained the scope of work, timeline, and costs upfront?no surprises. The crew arrived on time each day, worked hard, and kept the area as clean and organized as possible throughout the project. Installing a sewer line is no small job, but they made the process smooth and stress-free. What really stood out was their attention to detail and commitment to doing the job right the first time. They answered all my questions, kept me updated on progress, and ensured everything was functioning perfectly before wrapping up. If you?re looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and honest plumber for major work like a sewer line installation, I highly recommend them. Quality workmanship and great customer service from start to finish!"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.

The cost to repair a main sewer line clog is about $3,110 on average. The average cost range is  $1,310 to $4,950, but it can go as low as $215 and as high as $9,300 or more. The cost factors for this repair include the severity of the clog, pipe accessibility, video inspection, removal method, permits, pipe material, labor rates in your area, and time of year. Repairs made from outside during the winter can be more difficult due to the frozen ground or during the spring if the ground is saturated from a lot of rain and snow melt.

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.

The best practice is to clean the sewer drain lines in your home once a year or every two years. Older homes could require more frequent maintenance. Keeping up on cleaning your sewer lines can prevent severe clogs, help ensure your system is working properly, and prevent expensive repairs.

An active cleaning agent and a drain snake is the best way to clean a main sewer line. You can purchase a regular or enzyme drain cleaner or make a DIY drain cleaner with baking soda. Use your chosen solution at least once a month or as needed to keep your sewer line clear.
