In fact, the quote we signed was 8,800 but when Aaron saw we had sand, not clay, credited us $400. Who does that? I cannot understand the F reviews - it seems to be from those who didn't get an appointment? He is very busy and unlike many contractors, won't take on work if he can't schedule you in. I guess we got lucky. We would give Aaron an A++ if I could. He & his family run business were simply a joy to work with.

Even items which could not be inspected he made suggestions for investigating such as scoping the sewer line to the street. He is more expensive than most inspectors, but easily saved me thousands by providing plenty of ammunition to reduce the offer on the home to compensate for needed repairs, plus providing the peace of mind that the home was well inspected. Inspection was a full 6 hours for a 2300SF home, and could have been done about an hour less, but Patrick educates you as he notices things. So if you already feel educated, you may find it too long, but if you want or need the information, he will provide it. He also gave excellent instructions in the report regarding items such as how to switch over from heating to cooling with the furnace and humidifier. Worth every penny.

Sewer Line Repair reviews from real Angi homeowners in Commerce, MI
It was actually a repair to the sewer line -intrenching - within the house - in an old line within an addition to the original house probably close to 100 years old in a crawl space - we had several people out and Hoover was the only one that really grasped the issue properly and promptly....

Ended up with a major repair of sewer line. They completed the job in 1 day and left everything very neat for having to dig up the yard. The service was quick especially during the holiday season.

Perfectly. All employees were competent, friendly, clean and interested in doing a good job. The faucets and drains have never worked better. And no doubt the sewer line will be better than the nearly collapsed Orangeburg that was replaced.

Awful. The condo association cuts deals with suppliers and tells them the results they want. I had hired a reputable plumber initially and found that there was a break in the storm drain. Condo manager came over and saw it. NO action. Complained and then they hired Paul Scott Plumbing to...

Everything went great. We had no working sewer lines which was an obvious problem. One of the larger companies wanted over 15K for the same pipe bursting work. Another quoted 12K to excavate. We just didn't want to deal with digging up the landscaping. In fact, the quote we signed was 8,800...

FAQs for sewer line repair projects in Commerce, MI
The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
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.
The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
