"We are so impressed with Michigan Plumbing and have already made recommendations to family and friends to contact them when needs arrive. They called to let us know the tech was on his way and arrived within 10 or 16 minutes of that phone call. He reviewed the situation and gave a recommendation and a reasonable quote. My husband and I were able to do the job ourselves, and feel that the company is honorable (which is not often the case in this day and age) and that their interest was in our situation. I am definitely calling them every time a plumbing situation arises."

"I hired them to clean the main drain at my daughter's house. They scheduled the service promptly and arrived within the time frame specified. They were efficient overwhelming and did not try to upsell any other service. Their pricing was comparable to other vendors. I would not hesitate to use them again."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. Sewer line replacement costs about $60 to $250 per linear foot.

Schedule regular inspections, fix minor issues promptly, and ensure proper drainage.

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.

Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you’ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.

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.
