"The technician arrived about 30 minutes late without calling to tell me; looked at the toilets and identified the problem fairly quickly. He was knowledgeable and considerate. The cost was a bit on the high side, but I never saw a plumbing problem that isn't resoved without a hefty fee! I recommend them again, though."

"Finding a good quality plumber is hard where we live. Mike had good reviews. Our hot water heater was going bad. I called Mike, he responded sand set a "next day" site visit. Mike arrived promptly, surveyed the job, quoted a estimate, which I accepted. He obtained the required County permit, bought the tank and installed it perfectly! He also informed me that my sump pump was not operation correctly and we arranged another day to buy and install it. His work was excellent and professional! He cleaned up and left the house perfectly. Would not hesitate to recommend Mike@Excellant Plumbing to anyone."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

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.

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

Homeowners insurance usually doesn’t cover sewer backups because it’s typically an avoidable problem with proper maintenance. The only exception would be if the backup is occurring because of local flooding and only if your city uses a combined drainage system for stormwater and sewage. If that’s the case, your policy should cover any resulting damage.

The best practice is to clean the sewer drain lines in your home once a year or every two years. Older homes could require more frequent maintenance. Keeping up on cleaning your sewer lines can prevent severe clogs, help ensure your system is working properly, and prevent expensive repairs.

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.
