"I own a few multi-unit buildings and I know how difficult it is to find a RELIABLE, reasonably priced plumber. I found such a person in Damien Solivan. He has completed a few jobs for me. I enjoy doing business with Damien. In addition to being reliable and reasonably priced Damien is also professional, knowledgeable, friendly and honest."

"So on Christmas night I was doing dishes after our turkey dinner and the kitchen sink backed up. I tried myself to unclog it for 4 hours that night, and another hour the following morning. I ended up finding Main Street Drain Cleaning on HomeAdvisor. Richard called me right away and was at my house within an hour and a half or so. The day after Christmas. On a Saturday. He got the job done in about an hour, gave me some good advice, cleaned up and charged what I thought was a very fair price - especially on a Saturday during a holiday weekend. Highly highly highly recommended!"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

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.

As a preventative measure, hydro jetting should be done every one to two years. However, the best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age and condition of your pipes, how prone they are to clogging, how often the sewer line is used, and the type of waste disposed of in the system. If you frequently experience clogs or are unsure, it's best to ask a licensed plumber for a recommendation specific to your plumbing system.

Snaking a drain can take as little as a few minutes for small, simple clogs, up to two hours or more for tough clogs located further down the drain line. For tougher clogs, a professional drain cleaner can likely get the job done much more quickly because they have the necessary tools and expertise. However, your drain cleaning pro might not be able to give you a firm time estimate until inspecting the clog and its surrounding plumbing.

In most states, companies that perform sewer cleaning services don’t need specific licensing, but you should always ensure you hire a licensed and certified plumber to get the work done. You can use our state licensing tool to check whether the potential sewer cleaning company holds a plumber’s certification and license. Hiring a certified sewer cleaning services guarantees that the work will be done safely, there won’t be additional damage done to your home, and the problem will be fixed.
