"Everything went fine. RJ and Angel were promptly on the job. They explained what they were going to do. During the cleaning process they showed me the progress via their sewer line camera. I am very pleased with the work and appreciated their professionalism."

"We had old clogged pipes in two different areas of the house so we called Tony’s for help. Tony came out the day I called to give a consultation. A couple of days later he sent a quote for the repairs and by the end of the week he had a crew at the my house to do the repairs. Kevin and Juan were punctual, hard working and super nice guys! Before work got started they tried their best to protect our home from the dust and dirt. I was really grateful for their efforts. They also kept us updated through out the whole process. At one point during the day there was a need to snake one of the pipes and Paul came out to help. I’ve worked with Paul before when our water heater went out so I knew we were in good hands! At the end of the day Kevin and Juan did an incredible job of cleaning! Drains are working properly again and we are thankful to have found a plumbing company with so many great workers! The price we paid was close to the quote. Once the walls were open they found some complications that couldn’t have been foreseen. We are appreciative that Kevin and Juan figured out a way to fix the problem while trying to save us money. You won’t regret hiring Tony’s Plumbing!"

"I had a great experience with a drain cleaning service at my home in Los Alamitos. Our main line was backing up, and they were able to get someone out the same day. Our technician Brandon was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain what was causing the blockage and how he was going to fix it. He thoroughly cleaned the drain and made sure everything was flowing perfectly before leaving. You can tell he really cares about doing the job right. I appreciate the honest service, fair pricing, and quick response. I would definitely recommend Brandon to anyone in Los Alamitos who needs reliable drain cleaning service!"

"Highly recommend using Josh as your technician. My kitchen sink had completely stopped draining and the water was just sitting there due to a backup in the pipes. Josh came out quickly and took the time to explain what was causing the issue before getting to work. He is highly knowledgeable and gets the work done quickly."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

Regrading your yard can often fix drainage problems. You can also try aerating the lawn to encourage better drainage or install a new drainage system to prevent water from pooling in certain areas.

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

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.

If you have a sink stopper, it can feel more challenging to clean the drain without removing it, but here are a few simple steps:

  • Pour ½ cup baking soda into the drain using a funnel

  • Pour 1 ½ cups vinegar into the drain

  • Close the sink stopper for 15–20 minutes

  • Open the drain

  • Pour 2 cups of boiling water down the drain (be cautious as boiling water can damage some types of pipes)

If the drain isn’t unclogged, repeat the process.
