"Tim put us in the schedule very quickly due to a clogged sewer line. He showed up when promised. He was very proficient in getting the clog cleared out. He cleans up his work area when done. I'd hire him again, without question."

"Professional, clean, friendly and honest. This what I can say about Ramon & Sons Plumbing! We had a major crises today, the sewer backed up into the basement. We called Ramon & Sons and they said they would be there at 8:30 am...Right on the dot they were here. I was very happy to see how organized, clean and competent they were. It took almost no time for them to do the routing and put a cap on the line. The result was a job performed with great care, professionally done and No Leaks! I am extremely happy with the service provided and although I hope I do not have anymore plumbing issues in the future, I am much more at ease knowing I will always have someone to call who are as reliable and professional and so affordable as Ramon & Sons. I will definitely be recommending them to family and friends..They are just Awesome!"

"Nikko came out to do an outside backyard sewer line inspection. I've never had any problems in the past with the sewer lines, but had it inspected for peace of mind. I was glad I had it done, because Nikko showed me a nasty root inside the sewer line. Once he chopped up the root, the water that was held back could now flow freely through the pipe once again. Nikko found one more root and chopped that up too. Then he checked the drain one last time and when he saw there were no more roots he cleaned up and put his tools back in his truck. Nikko was very smart, informative and answered all my questions. Thank you Precision Today for your plumbing solutions. I will use them again and will tell friends and family to call them for any plumbing issues.."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Unlike regular cleanings, snaking your sewer line should be done as needed. There’s no reason to snake your sewer line if you don’t have any noticeable issues, like slow drainage or plugged drains. You can add it to your regular sewer cleaning checklist as a prevention method (on the same 18- to 22-month schedule), but it’s not always necessary. 

Yes, many services include camera inspections to identify the cause of the blockage. Confirm with your provider.

If you’ll be digging up your floor to get access to your pipes when putting in a sewer backflow preventer, this would also be a good time to take care of any other plumbing issues or renovations. For example, you could install additional pipes for a basement bathroom. Since the floor will be sealed over with concrete when you’re done, now’s a good time to take care of those bigger tasks.

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.

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.
