"Damien arrived on time and determined our issue quickly and corrected our clogged pipes. We also asked him to check out another issue. He stayed and fixed this issue as well. He also cleaned everything up before leaving. A true professional. We will definitely be hiring him again and recommending him to all of our friends. Thanks again Damien"

"Rich is reliable and reasonable! He came on time. He was clean and neat. But, most of all, he not only fixed our original problem, but fixed two other drain problems. He is a "treasure" find."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.

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.

DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and specialized equipment requirements. Hire professionals for effective clearing.

It is generally safe to stay in a house that smells like sewage for a short time, but you should get the problem fixed as soon as possible. While the level of sewer gas is usually low enough to only cause minor symptoms, prolonged inhalation can lead to headaches, nausea, or respiratory irritation. High levels of gas exposure can be more dangerous, and high concentrations of methane—a component of sewer gas—can pose an explosion risk in enclosed spaces. If you smell sewer gas in your home, ventilate the area and call a professional to locate, assess, and fix the problem, as it will not go away on its own.

The cost to repair a main sewer line clog is about $3,110 on average. The average cost range is  $1,310 to $4,950, but it can go as low as $215 and as high as $9,300 or more. The cost factors for this repair include the severity of the clog, pipe accessibility, video inspection, removal method, permits, pipe material, labor rates in your area, and time of year. Repairs made from outside during the winter can be more difficult due to the frozen ground or during the spring if the ground is saturated from a lot of rain and snow melt.
