"Glenn and Josh are great guys. We had an emergency with Sewer blockage and they were at our house within an hour on a Friday evening. They cleaned it and also pointed out that we had old cast iron pipes which had cracks. Subsequently, we engaged them to replace all our sewer lines. The work was done within 3 - 4 days and they kept us up to speed on every aspect. The work was excellent (and they showed pictures to prove it). We would hire them for any of our plumbing needs and highly recommend them!!"

"We've been working with Mike Counsil for over 8 years - clogged drains, water heater, new toilets, and most recently a sewer re-pipe. Yes, they may be more expensive than other companies, but with Mike Counsil you get what you pay for - quality work. A big shout out to Rudy and the whole team - they are hardworking, reliable and courteous."

"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 and his team are fantastic. We had a sewer back up and knew that we had major problems with the sewer lines and they would need to be replaced, a big messy job required excavation under the house and I was worried I would lose my whole garden. We got 4 quotes, widely different. Michael and Major League were the only ones who brought a camera to go through the pipes and diagnosed the problems, found the leak underground, and came up with a way to save a lot of my plants. His quote was clear, and he had great communication about tweaks to the quote. Fantastic, thorough job, good clean up. Very happy overall and would recommend to anyone."

"Geraldo and Luis were on time, kind, knowledgeable, took care of my lawn like it was their own. Dug up the sewer pipe, replaced the clean out and put the lawn and irises back in place. Could not tell they dug a 4x4x4 foot hole. Very happy with their work. Job completed in 6 hours. Thank you."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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 plumber will charge anywhere from $45 to $200 per hour, but you may also pay a service fee or flat fee. 

Some experts estimate that descaling your cast iron pipes can extend their lifetime by upwards of 50 years, although there’s not a lot of research to prove it. But we do know that without proper maintenance, cast iron pipes can quickly rust—leading to more expensive issues like burst pipes or main line clogs.

In most states, companies that perform sewer cleaning services don’t need specific licensing, but you should always ensure you hire a licensed and certified plumber to get the work done. You can use our state licensing tool to check whether the potential sewer cleaning company holds a plumber’s certification and license. Hiring a certified sewer cleaning services guarantees that the work will be done safely, there won’t be additional damage done to your home, and the problem will be fixed.

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. 

Thankfully, it’s pretty rare to find a rat in your toilet. It’s more likely in larger cities with big sewer systems that can be feeding grounds for rats, but even then, you still shouldn’t fret. 

“I wouldn’t worry too much about rats coming up through the sewers,” Bradshaw says. “I’d say only one out of a thousand rodent customers we get actually have this problem. And of the 20 or some customers that have had this happen, they’ve all only had just one rat come up this way.”
