The initial contact and scheduling was super easy, the quote process was really extremely informative and the install was faster than promised, they cleaned up and were super professional. You can’t go wrong with these guys."

"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

Ejector pumps can only push sewage 750 feet or less. That’s because their purpose is to move waste from your home to your sewer line—which is a relatively short distance. Grinder pumps can transport sewage further, but they manage lower volumes of waste than ejector pumps (and they don’t work with septic systems).

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.

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.

Depending on the home, wastewater either goes into a septic tank and seeps back into the backyard or is sent via sewer system to a local sewage-treatment plant. Septic systems naturally separate different components of the waste so that it can naturally and safely disperse it. They are usually reserved for homes not served by a municipal sewage department (like rural homes). A treatment plant, on the other hand, speeds up that process through screening and purification.

Most commercial liquid drain cleaners work in 15 to 30 minutes. Consult the label on the bottle for additional instructions or time suggestions to prevent damage to your drainpipes. Alternative solutions such as baking soda, salt, white vinegar, and/or boiling water can take longer since they are less harsh than liquid drain cleaners.
