"In December of 2019 I noticed a drain in my basement was backing up (water) and called Service Now. When the technician arrived I described the conditions of the clogged drain and he determined it was the main sewer line. He stated that a clean out valve had to be installed (at a cost of $574) to run a snake through the line. I agreed and shortly thereafter he announced he could not clear the sewer line and that another crew was needed to "jet" my sewer (at a cost of $800). I agreed and the following day two technicians arrived and stated they would run a camera through the sewer line to determine the blockage. Shortly thereafter one of the technicians produced a video showing cracks and some broken pipe fragments (but no blockage) in a section of the main sewer line. They recommended that I have the broken sections of pipe replaced (at a cost of $3600). They then proceeded to jet the sewer line and announced that the clog in the sewer had been removed. That evening (after the second Service Now crew had left) I noticed that the drain in the basement was still backing up, so on the following day when the Service Now service writer arrived to discuss the sewer line replacement, I mentioned that the drain was still backed up and he replied that "they would look at that when they came out to replace the sewer pipe". I then began to think Service Now was defrauding me and contacted another plumbing company. When they arrived a couple of days later they determined that the drain from the kitchen was clogged and had to be snaked to clear it (at a cost of $128). I agreed and the other plumbers successfully cleared the drain. I have since contacted Service Now three times (once on a three way call with my credit card company) and each time I was assured a manager would call back, and 10 months later I'm still waiting."

We serve the Fox Valley, DeKalb, Sycamore, and the greater Chicago area. After working for other local companies, we saw a need for another kind of company. A company that actually meets their customers’ needs, instead of training their plumbers/technicians to push unnecessary programs, repairs, and costly equipment. A company that does what's in your best interest first. That's Balanced Plumbing and that's how we work. You will like our services.

"2 months after the manhole was rebuilt cracks started appearing in the concrete pad around the manhole. The concrete was rated 10,000 psi and the work guaranteed for life. 6 emails from the purchasing manager and controller and numerous phone calls over 2 months failed to elicit the courtesy of a callback. The fear is the water will infiltrate the manhole shell through the cracks and damage the new manhole. The work cost $8,775.00. T Dotson's Draintech does not stand behind their work. They run and hide!"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

There are several homemade solutions for clearing a clogged sink that don’t involve pouring harsh chemicals down your drain. Start by pouring hot (but not boiling) water down the drain. This can help dissolve and flush away grease and gunk. A splash of dish soap down the drain can also cut through fat and make it easier to clear the drain. For a more stubborn blockage, grab a plunger and give it a few firm pumps to dislodge the clog.

There are many things that could cause your basement floor drain to back up. One significant cause of a drainage backup is flushing non-flushable items, such as wipes, paper towels, and facial tissue. Other causes of a backed-up basement floor drain include tree roots impeding the drain pipe or an accumulation of hair, oil, and grease. 

The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.

Thankfully, it’s pretty rare to find a rat in your toilet. It’s more likely in larger cities with big sewer systems that can be feeding grounds for rats, but even then, you still shouldn’t fret. 

“I wouldn’t worry too much about rats coming up through the sewers,” Bradshaw says. “I’d say only one out of a thousand rodent customers we get actually have this problem. And of the 20 or some customers that have had this happen, they’ve all only had just one rat come up this way.”

A sewer line should be cleaned at least once every 18 to 22 months. The process takes about 30 minutes or up to 5 hours, depending on the size of the line, how easy it is to access, and how long it’s been since the previous cleaning. If your sewer line hasn’t been cleaned in a couple of years or you don’t even know the last time it’s been cleaned, it’s time to call a pro.
