"Rick Ray and So s came out to reset a toilet that was leaking for me. They were very fast, friendly and did great work. They explained the issue, fixed it quickly and had me double check the work to make sure I was happy. This is the second time I’ve used them and I’ve been very happy with their service. I really appreciate that they text you a picture of the person coming to your home so that you k ow who to expect. This is a really great practice for safety reasons and I appreciate it very much. Thank you for the great service!"

"We installed new fixtures in shower and lav and replaced kitchen faucet. We’ve done a dozen or so remodels/rehabs. These folks were some of the best, if not THE best we’ve worked with. On time, plumber was professional and worked hard, kept home and workarea clean, and fair (not cheapest) price."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Yes. Sewer cameras are invaluable tools that can help pros safely diagnose problems with your septic system. Without a camera to look into your system, septic issue diagnoses would be a combination of guessing and past experience. However, a camera can help confirm ideas that your pro may already have about what’s wrong.

Food grease, soap buildup, paper products, and tree roots often cause serious clogs.

It can take anywhere from half an hour to a few hours to fix a main line clog, depending on the cause and severity of it. The job should not take more than a day to complete. Keep in mind that the main line is not the same as your home’s sewer lines (which connect to the main line and run to your house). Your city is responsible for any clogs or damage to the main line itself.

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.

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.
