"Our front yard was a muddy mess. We had a Liquid Amber Tree removed by another company we thought was the culprit for the mess. It did solve one leak, however, we had a much larger leak still! Ugh!! Well, Honest Sewer & Drain's Dustin Heffington talked to us on the phone in length determining the company could help us with our absolute muddy mess and leak! Within just an hour of Dustin working on the problem, the leak was found and the solution was told to us. Dustin did an excellent job. He was very thorough and professional. By the end of the day, the leak was repaired and the ground cleaned up. Thank you very much!! If you need a plumber, do not hesitate to contact Honest Sewer and Drain!"

"I couldn't be happier with the service I received! From the moment I called, everyone was professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful. The crew arrived on time, explained everything they were doing, and made the entire septic clean-out process quick and stress free. They were honest, respectful of my property, and left everything clean when they were finished. It's hard to find companies these days that truly care about their customers, but this team went above and beyond. Their customer service and work ethic were outstanding. I highly recommend them to anyone needing septic services. I'll definitely be using them again in the future. Thank you for such an amazing experience!"

"The 800 number was promptly answered at 8:30 pm and the person who took the call gave me a planned plumbing service time that fit my schedule the next day. A call from the dispatcher provided me with a heads-up when the technician was on his way from the previous job a few miles away - right in the middle of the scheduled time window. The technician was courteous, friendly, knowledgeable, clean/tidy, competent and professional.  Everything went as well as it could have given that one of my kids had broken the dispose-all by putting metal objects down the sink.

Our team at Bonney helped restore flow at this Sacramento home by performing a sewer spot repair on the main line for our customer.  This involved locating the problem area, digging the trench, snaking the line to clear the drain, repairing a section of the sewer pipe, and then backfilling the space to restore back to the original landscape.

"I can't say enough good things about Ryan Murrary, the owner of Murray Plumbing. Ryan and his assistant Dayton. I needed his help installing a new disposal in my kitchen sink. He and Dayton were at my house the very next day installing and correcting the previous plumbers installations mistakes. Ryan and Dayton are very knowledgeable guys when it comes to anything dealing with Plumbing. They finished their work in short time. Cleaned up after themselves and were very polite. They went out of their way to help me and to be sure I was satisfied with work. Murray Plumbing is the one to call for all your plumbing needs. You won't be disappointed. I can assure of that."

"Detected a leak under the house early in the AM. Phoned Murray at 6:27, received a call from Shannon at 6:47. Explained the situation and he said he could be there by 9:00. He arrived at 8:45, assessed the problem, gathered tools and parts, finished job by 10:00. I mentioned an issue with the garbage disposal as well. Shannon said letâ s take care of that today too. New disposal, installed and cleaned up by 10:45. Fair prices, great, friendly and more than competent service."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

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

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

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.

If you’ll be digging up your floor to get access to your pipes when putting in a sewer backflow preventer, this would also be a good time to take care of any other plumbing issues or renovations. For example, you could install additional pipes for a basement bathroom. Since the floor will be sealed over with concrete when you’re done, now’s a good time to take care of those bigger tasks.
