"Of all things you don't want to happen on a Sunday afternoon, your sewer line backing up has to top the list. Well that what happened to me today. Ugh. Since I was away from a computer and didn't have time to research service providers on Angie's List, I reached for my trusty yellow pages and called several companies to find out how much this problem was going to set me back. The first few calls I made were very discouraging, with quotes ranging from $425-$600+!! Not what I wanted to hear! Then I turned the page and found a nice looking ad from a company called All-Star Rooter and decided to make one last call. Boy was I glad I did. Rather than get an answering machine or message service, Bryan (the owner) answered the phone and told me the price would be from $235-$285 (depending upon how many feet my house is back from the street) and that he could be over right after he finished up his current job - in about an hour. Music to my ears! Not only did he show up as promised, he quickly identified the problem and cleared the line. Within an hour, my problem was resolved and my bank account NOT depleted! Bryan is just starting out on his own (after working for others for many years) so his prices are extremely reasonable. But that doesn't mean his work isn't high quality! He was prompt, professional, friendly, neat, insured and extremely knowledgeable and experienced. Plus, he gave me a 30-day guarantee. Totally top-rate service at affordable rates. He was a true lifesaver and I highly recommend him for any problems you may have with clogged drains or sewers."

"We have an old house (100+ years old). I called Atomic Rooter to fix a bad clog and reconnect drain pipes. They responded quickly, came the next day (as agreed), on time, professional, clean and upfront price. For plumbing services, I think they were very reasonable. Larry and his assistant were great. I will use them again."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

There are a few reasons your snake won’t go down the floor drain. One common reason is a large obstruction in the drain that is causing a blockage. You can remove any debris you see in the drain before trying to snake it. In addition, the snake might not be long enough to reach the clog, or it might be the wrong diameter. 

DIY plunging or drain cleaning chemicals may help minor clogs, but professional hydro jetting ensures long-term solutions.

It’ll take 20 to 30 minutes to unclog a sewer line using a drain snake or drain cleaner. If you hire a professional, you should expect them to be on-site for three hours or less. In addition to clearing the clog, they’ll do other routine inspections, which adds to the overall time (and cost) required.

In some cases, operating a snake can damage your drain and pipes. This depends on the overall condition of your pipes and how gently you operate the auger. For instance, older galvanized pipes covered in zinc are susceptible to scratches when using a drain snake. Additionally, it’s common for newbies to apply too much force when extending the snake, leading to scratches and related damage. You can also crack the porcelain with an electric auger if you’re snaking a toilet drain. If you’re using a manual snake or auger, the risk is minimal.

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.
