"He was very professional. I wasn't sure what was going on and when he came out and took look he was able to figure it out right away. He came out same day. Even called to say he could come out earlier than expected. He got it taken care of quickly and put my mind at rest. He was very helpful. I have a couple other projects with my sewer drain and will call him to do the work when I am ready."

"Excellent! Skilled and Knowledgeable! Our sewer backup seemed to come from nowhere. Matt quickly accessed the problem and communicated possible causes. He rodded the sewer line and used the camera to locate the bent pipe causing backup. Not only did he effectively explain the causes and source of our sewer back-up, but also gave us temporary and long-term solutions to consider. Surely, educated this homeowner! He came when promised and truly delivered. Price was good and work was excellent. Will definitely recommend and call back for all future needs!"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Ejector pumps can only push sewage 750 feet or less. That’s because their purpose is to move waste from your home to your sewer line—which is a relatively short distance. Grinder pumps can transport sewage further, but they manage lower volumes of waste than ejector pumps (and they don’t work with septic systems).

If the toilet is overflowing but there’s no clog, that’s a sign that the issue is deeper in the system, and plunging may not help. A blockage in your home’s plumbing, the plumbing vent, or even city sewer lines can cause toilets to overflow. The issue could also be the toilet itself if the filler float isn’t set to the correct height or if parts are damaged or worn out.

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.

Bleach isn’t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn’t useful in this situation because it won’t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.
