"Great experience! We had a clog in our sewer main and Adrian was polite, respectful, and perhaps most importantly, efficient. He fixed our clogged, shared some advice on how to avoid future issues and made sure he left the areas he worked in just how it was before he arrived. His services are fairly priced and he came highly recommended. I would not hesitate to recommend him to my friends and family."

"P&M Plumbing arrived promptly and on short notice. The work was done very professionally, area left clean and orderly and the sump pump works phenomenally! I had spent 17 hours vacuuming and lugging water after the last storm, so I was thrilled at the thought of having a sump pump. We received about 3 inches of rain the next day and they even called to make sure everything was working well! In this day, it is a wonderful surprise to have a company really care about the customer and the quality of their work and I am more than delighted. Even with the 5-6 inches we received last night, I had no cleanup to do! I am highly recommending P&M!"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance usually doesn’t cover sewer backups because it’s typically an avoidable problem with proper maintenance. The only exception would be if the backup is occurring because of local flooding and only if your city uses a combined drainage system for stormwater and sewage. If that’s the case, your policy should cover any resulting damage.

You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. Sewer line replacement costs about $60 to $250 per linear foot.

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.

Regardless of the drain cleaner type you choose to use, they all work through chemical reactions that create heat. Thanks to the heat, the clogged hair begins to dissolve until it is able to be flushed away. To avoid clogs in your drain due to hair, use hair catchers and empty them out after every shower.

If you’re wondering whether rats can come up the toilet, the unfortunate answer is yes, it’s possible, though it’s extremely rare. These rodents are excellent swimmers and can travel through sewer pipes in search of food, and they may follow plumbing lines leading to your home if they’re drawn by the scent of scraps and waste. The toilet’s U-bend holds a small pocket of air, which can help a rat catch its breath before making its final push into your bathroom. While more common in cities with larger rat populations, this can happen anywhere with connected sewer systems; sealing entry points and keeping drains clean can help reduce the risk.
