Q: Can I clean my sewer myself?

• <div><p>You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It&rsquo;s always best to hire a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/sewer-cleaners/">professional sewer cleaner near you</a> to handle this type of work.</p></div>

Q: How does Roto-Rooter bill you?

• <div><p>Roto-Rooter does not charge by the hour, so the quote you get after your in-person consultation should cover the whole project. This includes the time it takes a technician to get to your house and the time it takes to complete the job. For context, a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/plumber-cost.htm">plumber will charge</a> anywhere from $45 to $200 per hour, but you may also pay a service fee or flat fee. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to get something out of the sewer?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-clear-a-main-sewer-line-clog.htm#">cost to snake your main sewer line</a> is around <b>$250</b> for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between <b>$45 and $200</b> per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you&rsquo;ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost <b>$3,100 on average</b>.</p></div>

Q: How do you get rid of roots in a main sewer line?

• <div><p>You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-sewer-line-replacement-or-repair-cost.htm">Sewer line replacement costs</a> about $60 to $250 per linear foot. </p></div>

Q: How does drain cleaner dissolve hair?

• <div><p>Regardless of the drain cleaner type you choose to use, they all work through chemical reactions that create heat. Thanks to the heat, the clogged hair begins to dissolve until it is able to be flushed away. To avoid clogs in your drain due to hair, use hair catchers and empty them out after every shower.</p></div>
