"Kevin came out to my house on a Saturday and spent an hour unclogging my sewer drain after my basement had flooded a week prior. I had originally called him to do a camera scope of the pipes. He had brought his system to jet out the sewer drain pipe just in case and I am very glad he did. He showed me on the camera there were not one but THREE root balls blocking my sewer drain pipe. I am so relieved Kevin came out to do the job. He was kind and professional and even told me how to take care of the sewer drain pipe afterward. I can sleep easier at night knowing this will not happen again for a very long time with proper care. I will be recommending Kevin and his company to everyone I can. Thank you, Kevin and Ready Jetter Plumbing!!"

"Ready Jetter (Kevin) was recommended to me by another plumbing company. I needed service that included jetting the sewer lines. Kevin was prompt to return my call and was able to schedule service the very next day. He kept in touch on timing and performed the service as expected. I was very pleased with his competitive rates and his professionalism. He was very clean and protected all floors and left no mess whatsoever. He even took the time to discuss the issue with the other plumbing company to make sure he had complete knowledge of the situation before coming to my home. They have a great customer relationship management system for invoicing and payment - everything was super easy. I would highly recommend Ready Jetter to anyone that needs plumbing/jetting service!"
This is a screenshot from a short video of the lining being brush coated into the old pipe after we descaled, cleaned out, and installed a new bottom in the pipe.  All without breaking up the floor. The link to the video is below.

"My sewer line broke on a Friday. We had to move my wife and my 94 year old mother-in-law into a hotel and did not know how long it would be. West was the first company to respond to my Home Advisor quite request. Jeff showed up in about 90 minutes for the estimate. Their pricing was right in line with the HA project estimate. In fact he then gave me a discount when I asked about doing more than just fixing the problem. What blew me away is that he said they could do it the next day and be done in one day. A crew of four showed up and by 3:00 pm they done cleaning up. Great work and now I have an outside clean-out for snaking the sewer line. Thanks guys"

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

You could be smelling sewer gas in your kitchen because of a dry P-trap, clogged vent pipe, or leaking plumbing seals. If you smell a rotten egg odor, check your sink’s P-trap and plumbing connections first. A clogged or damaged vent pipe can trap sewer gas and push it back into your kitchen through the plumbing pipes. Loose or deteriorated seals around drainpipes can also allow sewer gas to leak out. If you can’t find the source, call a local plumber for expert help.

An active cleaning agent and a drain snake is the best way to clean a main sewer line. You can purchase a regular or enzyme drain cleaner or make a DIY drain cleaner with baking soda. Use your chosen solution at least once a month or as needed to keep your sewer line clear. 

If you’ll be digging up your floor to get access to your pipes when putting in a sewer backflow preventer, this would also be a good time to take care of any other plumbing issues or renovations. For example, you could install additional pipes for a basement bathroom. Since the floor will be sealed over with concrete when you’re done, now’s a good time to take care of those bigger tasks.

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.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.
