"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."

"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 questions, answered by experts

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.”

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

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.

Most commercial liquid drain cleaners work in 15 to 30 minutes. Consult the label on the bottle for additional instructions or time suggestions to prevent damage to your drainpipes. Alternative solutions such as baking soda, salt, white vinegar, and/or boiling water can take longer since they are less harsh than liquid drain cleaners.

Costs vary by severity and access requirements. Typical pricing ranges from $100 to $350, increasing with complexity or for emergency services.
