Q: How much does it cost to unclog a drain or sewer line?

• <div><p>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.</p><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Why is my toilet overflowing with no clog?

• <div><p>If the toilet is overflowing but there&rsquo;s no clog, that&rsquo;s a sign that the issue is deeper in the system, and plunging may not help. A blockage in your home&rsquo;s plumbing, the plumbing vent, or even city sewer lines can cause toilets to overflow. The issue could also be the toilet itself if the filler float isn&rsquo;t set to the correct height or if parts are damaged or worn out. </p></div>

Q: How do I know if my basement floor drain is clogged?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stop-water-basement-floor.htm">Water leaking through your basement floor</a> is a good sign of a clogged drain, but another sign of a clogged basement floor drain can include unpleasant odors coming from the drain. Also, hearing gurgling noises when water drains from the basement or having other plumbing fixtures (like toilets or other drains) backing up is a good indicator.</p></div>

Q: How do you get the rotten egg smell out of a drain?

• <div><p>That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm&mdash;hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/warning-signs-main-sewer-line-clog.htm">sewage line clogs</a> and other related issues.</p></div>

Q: Can I clear a sewer main myself?

• <div><p>DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and specialized equipment requirements. Hire professionals for effective clearing.</p></div>

"This contractor was completely professional, and was easy to talk to. We asked several questions while he was performing the work, and he took the time to answer our questions and concerns, and he explained what he was doing as he was performing the work. I would HIGHLY recommend Patrick Plumbing to anyone. As a matter of fact, I asked for business cards so that I could pass them out and hang them in prominent locations at my company's headquarters building. Just awesome work and friendly, professional service during the entire job. We will be calling Patrick Plumbing when/if we ever need plumbing work again."

"I found Worthmann LLC from Angies List-my kitchen disposal wouldn t drain properly. They contact me really promptly and set up an appointment for someone to come look at it and let me know that they would examine the problem for free and let me know the cost up front before doing any work-a huge help for someone on a budget and provided a time window that the tech would be arriving in! They called and texted me a reminder the day before the appointment and the technician text when he was on his way. Upon his arrival he really quickly knew what the problem was, and resolved it AND went the extra mile and showed me how to fix it if it happened again and took the time to explain why it happened-and did all of this as a courtesy! They will definitely be getting my business again, can’t recommend them enough!"
