"Very polite, immediately got to work, and explained things to me in plainer English so that I understood where the issues lies (having near zero plumbing knowledge prior). Thankfully, what looked like it could be a whole replacement became a much simpler fix charged as a service fee. Gave me a quote in case it did wind up being a bigger issue that needed replacing, but so far, not the case! Very grateful for quick and efficient work from Sam and Nick."

"Jason and his crew are prompt, polite, professional and proficient in everything they have done for us. We are full time homeowners in New Buffalo and also have 3 other rental properties, Jason and his team have worked on them all. From broken pipes, to sewer back ups, sump pump replacements and smaller jobs such as fixture changes and unfortunately everything in-between. While any plumbing situation can become a physical as well as a financial disaster it’s comfortable to know that Jason will have your back and assure you that everything will be ok. We highly recommend Jason’s company to everyone in the community."

"We needed a new hot water heater along with installing three new sinks after our new counter top we’re installed. I was able to get all of the work completed on the days I needed them. They were very knowledgable and friendly. Everything works great and they cleaned up nicely. I recommend calling Pipe Monster Plumbing. Susan Staal"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It’ll take 20 to 30 minutes to unclog a sewer line using a drain snake or drain cleaner. If you hire a professional, you should expect them to be on-site for three hours or less. In addition to clearing the clog, they’ll do other routine inspections, which adds to the overall time (and cost) required.

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.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.

Bleach isn’t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn’t useful in this situation because it won’t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda.
