"My drain was cleaned and received recommendations for pipe replacement in the future. They came the next day after I called which was excellent. It took a long time. Probably using the camera first would have saved time, but hindsight is always better. Bottom line drain is open now for use."

"Josh (PlumbPro) is a prime example of professionalism. He identified the issue (broken sewer line) and provided a quote for the required repairs. Itâ s clear that his work ethic was developed due to his military service (specifically his tour of duty in Afghanistan). Several other specialists listed on Home Advisor didnâ t bother to provide quotes from on-line requests, and my follow-up phone calls were never received. I would re-hire Josh without hesitation for any future issues, and Iâ d recommend PlumbPro to anyone deeding septic drain line breakage and/or camera inspection. JB"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

As a general rule of thumb, it’s best to clean your linear drain every two to three months to prevent debris buildup. However, if you notice it draining slowly or an odor from your drainpipes, it’s best to clear the clogged drain and maintain it more often. If you let a clog go for too long, you may have to invest in the price of professional shower drain cleaning, which costs about $225.

No, you should not see water in a sewer cleanout. If you do, it could indicate that you have a block or leak in your main sewer line—which can cause sewage to back up inside your home and potentially flood your yard. Your best bet is to call a local sewer cleaner if you notice any water or sewage around your cleanout.

A professional drain cleaner is a plumber or specialized drain cleaner with the necessary tools to unclog drains and tiles to keep waste water flowing out to the septic tank or city sewer for processing. Keeping wastewater from backing up into your home helps keep you and your family safe from potential contamination and sickness. These pros can help resolve nearly any drain situation in a safe and efficient manner.

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.

On average, a plumber will take 30 minutes to two hours to clear a clogged drain. If the clog is located close to the drain or an access point and isn’t severe, the project will take about half an hour. If the clog is deep within your plumbing system or is a severe blockage, it can take two or more hours to remove the clog. For this reason, main line clogs tend to take longer, usually between two and three hours.
