"As a Property Manager without an on-site maintenance technician, having a reliable plumbing company is essential, and I honestly couldn't ask for a better team than Owen and his crew. Owen has been absolutely wonderful in stepping in and helping with all of our plumbing needs. Whether it's a routine repair or an emergency situation, I know I can count on them to respond quickly and get the job done right. Brandon, Austin, and Cody are an outstanding team. They have consistently been there for me, often on short notice and during emergency situations when help was needed most. Their professionalism, availability, and willingness to assist have made a tremendous difference. What truly sets them apart is not only their responsiveness but also their skill, knowledge, and expertise. Every job is handled efficiently and correctly, giving me confidence that the work is being done to the highest standard. On top of that, their rates are some of the best you could ask for."

"They showed up the same day. They solved our initial problem. The leaky tank presented a longer fixing time, including my being charged for his running to Lowes for a rubber gasket. Other than that, I am very satisfied with the service."

"Called Advance Plumbing Service in reference to my toilets not flushing and my tub not draining. I didn't expect anyone to be able to come out because it was about 7:30 PM. To my surprise Mike explained he could have a technician out within a half an hour. When the tech arrived I explained the problem and he immediately started looking for a sewer line cleanout access around my house. When an access could not be located, the technician explained he could dig up the line and install an access for any future issues that may arise. I liked the idea of having an access permanently installed, but as late as it was, I didn't want to do this at night. I asked what my options were and John, the tech, said he could pull the toilet and access the line that way for a price of $90.00. I really wanted the cleanout installed and asked how much it would be to have him come back the next morning to do that. He gave me a price of $350. I agreed to that and he called his shop to set the appointment up for me. John then explained he was going to pull the toilet and "run the line", as he put it, so I would have drainage. I asked what this charge for this would be and he said the $350 would cover it all. That night John pulled my toilet, cleared the line, reset my toilet and cleaned up so well that I could not tell he'd even been in my bathroom. He showed up the next morning right on schedule, dug up the drain line, installed the cleanout and again did such a good job of cleaning up, that I could hardly tell he'd even been digging in my yard. Both of the people from this company that I dealt with were extremely courteous and professional and I was very satisfied.

The technician was on time, very polite, and very concerned with cleaning up any mess that he had to make. He was quick and pleasant. He replaced my old plastic drain with a better quality metal one and it works great!


The only problem I had with this company was that they took too long to answer my call and set up an appointment. They said they were on a huge busy job at the time. All in all, I would use them again.

"I tried contacting another business before Rescue Plumbing, but Went with Rescue Plumbing because of the prompt customer service and scheduling. While the other business said they might have someone in the area and would add me to the schedule, Rescue Plumbing was able to give me a specific date and time that they would be here to repair my leaking bathtub faucet. They called ahead and showed up as promised. The repair required a new fixture installation and was accomplished by a quick, efficient and polite technician. He gave me the estimate before beginning work and cleaned up afterwards. I wish they didn’t have a charge associated with using a credit card, but I would certainly use their services again in the future."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

It is generally safe to stay in a house that smells like sewage for a short time, but you should get the problem fixed as soon as possible. While the level of sewer gas is usually low enough to only cause minor symptoms, prolonged inhalation can lead to headaches, nausea, or respiratory irritation. High levels of gas exposure can be more dangerous, and high concentrations of methane—a component of sewer gas—can pose an explosion risk in enclosed spaces. If you smell sewer gas in your home, ventilate the area and call a professional to locate, assess, and fix the problem, as it will not go away on its own.

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.

The type of clog in your sewer main determines the required cleaning method. Different types or methods of sewer main cleaning require various tools like chemicals, mechanical removal, or a combination of both. Some of the most common types of sewer main line cleaning include:

  • Minor debris removal: $100–$600

  • Tree root removal: $100–$1,000

  • Trenchless pipe repair: $60–$250 per linear foot

  • General line repairs: $1,000–$4,000

  • Full pipe replacement: $3,000–$25,000

If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.

In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.
