"The previous sewer company claimed my sewer line was completely blocked after "their attempts" rodding and jetting the line. Their solution was the need to excavate and replace a new section of sewer pipe, which also would tear apart part of my driveway. Since it wasn't an emergency yet, I wanted a second opinion. Luckily, I turned to Angi's list and reached out for another quote. Tim responded promptly & was confident to try and see what's going on, first with his camera and then using a very small claw which could open up the line. Fortunately he was honest and right as he got thru the blockage and proceeded to use larger claws to fully rod out and clean the entire sewer line to the street, saving me a small fortune along with the aggravation dealing with the possible need of excavation and replacement of the sewer line. I would well recommend his services and will continue to have him service my sewer line. Thank you Angi's list and Tim from DRAINS INC. !"

"When I had a problem with the main sewer pipe another company came to fix the problem and they went from $275 TO $4600 in an instant. They recommended to install an exterior axis. I went online instead and found three other contractors which two of them recommended Aqua City Plumbing and Sewer, Inc. so I called them and when they came they made sure to open up the main sewer line and fixed the problem. Saved me around $400. The owner Chirs is pretty knowledgeable."

"I would and have recommended reliance plumbing to family and friends. I wanted to add a bathroom to my basement. I got three bids for the job and Reliance was competitive. I chose Reliance because I have used them exclusively for my plumbing work for several years. I had an awesome bathroom install done by them. They took two small rooms and built me a beautiful bathroom. I liked that I had the option to have them provide all fixtures and tile or let me purchase what I wanted. I chose to buy my own items. They had a specialty crew for each aspect of the job. Electricians for the electrical work, different plumbing crews to do the different plumbing jobs, and a carpenter for other non-plumbing items (framing, vanity install, towel bars, mirror, etc.) Each member or the team was polite, professional and did a great job. I must give extra recognition to Scott Scrivner the carpenter. He was meticulous with all his work. He made sure everything was done to perfection. He made me aware of any issues and we discussed how I wanted them handled. Unfortunately, during the install my sewer started backing up, not at all related to the work they were doing. We hadn't had the line cleaned out in over four years. I called and they sent a crew out within hours to try to clear the line. It turned out not to be a simple tree root or clog, but a serious issue preventing proper drainage. George Rivera, who is most knowledgeable about all plumbing issues, gave me a very detailed explanation with camera footage about the problem. Great company."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.

If you’re not using a septic system, problems with your home’s plumbing won’t cause this—it’s a city problem. A large blockage in the municipal sewage lines may cause those lines to back up into your home. This is extremely unpleasant and can be a serious health risk due to bacteria and other contaminants. If this occurs, call a pro (or your city) immediately.

There are a few things that can happen to your sewer system if you don’t fix it. These include rainwater entering it and causing rust and corrosion, dirt and debris leading to blockages, small animals getting stuck inside and clogging your sewer line or entering your home, and shortening the sewer system’s life span. 

Without a cap, nothing prevents toxic and non-toxic gasses like methane and hydrogen sulfide from slowly escaping your sewer system and entering your home and the surrounding atmosphere, resulting in a foul sewer odor throughout your house.

One way to save money on sewer lines is to install a sewer cleanout since it makes sewer line maintenance easier. Keeping up with maintenance is key to reducing the cost of repairs, so be sure to schedule annual plumbing inspections, install drain guards to stop objects from accidentally falling down drains, and only flush human waste and toilet paper to protect your pipes.

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.
