"Sam's was recommended to me by a neighbor. Came right out to clear my line on a Saturday afternoon. They recommended I replace the sewer clean-out at the time. Just got that replaced. Melissa is responsive, respectful and reasonable."

"I ended up hiring company after I shopped around for my Boiler, burner and Indirect hot water tank replacement need. I extensively researched prices and companies in my area. Lou the owner returned my call on a weekend in case there was any emergency. After he only asked to send him photos and videos. And instantly gave me quote for two scenarios (Which btw he honored all the way). This was stark difference from other companies who had to set an appointment to come measure my house with expensive equipment or software (Which size and BTU output I needed I already knew). And tried to upsell me something I didn't really ask for. Sched beat others on price which was most important to me in addition to reviews. After I picked them company clearly communicated when Job will start and were very punctual. David and Guy (I didn't catch name) where very punctual - cleaned after, daily. Clark and Enfi (I hope I spelled the name right) joined them the next day. Also very punctual and professional - all worked with minimally disturbing my day, as I had to work from home. And Job taking one extra day, they did it, leaving everything clean. Explained me and gave advice on maintenance and tune up. I'm not a professional in this area but what they installed looks good after years of watching my rusty boiler and Tank started leaking ;-). Pretty much rebuild everything with new pipes and motor pumps. I hands down will recommend company without any hesitation. Definitely shop around. But have no doubts Schede will do the Job as well if not better than others with great quality to price ratio."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

There are several homemade solutions for clearing a clogged sink that don’t involve pouring harsh chemicals down your drain. Start by pouring hot (but not boiling) water down the drain. This can help dissolve and flush away grease and gunk. A splash of dish soap down the drain can also cut through fat and make it easier to clear the drain. For a more stubborn blockage, grab a plunger and give it a few firm pumps to dislodge the clog.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

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. 

The cost to unclog a drain varies based on the location and severity of the clog. For simple clogs within your home, such as in a sink, toilet, or shower, hiring a plumber typically costs between $110 and $350, with an average of around $200. Snaking a toilet or sink usually costs between $110 and $275, while a bathtub or shower clog costs about $225.

For a more serious clog in the main sewer line, the cost is higher. Clearing a main line clog generally costs between $200 and $600, with an average of about $380. However, prices can range from as low as $100 for snaking a minor clog to over $1,600, particularly if advanced methods like video inspection and hydrojetting are needed for a large or hard-to-reach blockage. Some severe main line clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear depending on factors like the cause of the clog, its distance from an accessible cleanout, and whether the pipe is located beneath an occupied space (e.g., in an apartment building). You may be able to save money on minor clogs by using a drain snake or bladder yourself.

A sewer line should be cleaned at least once every 18 to 22 months. The process takes about 30 minutes or up to 5 hours, depending on the size of the line, how easy it is to access, and how long it’s been since the previous cleaning. If your sewer line hasn’t been cleaned in a couple of years or you don’t even know the last time it’s been cleaned, it’s time to call a pro.
