"Terrible terrible terrible. We contacted Mr. Rooter mid Michigan. Mount Pleasant location. They sent us an unlicensed plumber without telling us. They also advertise that they are BBB accredited and have an A+ rating. They are not BBB accredited and they have an F rating. The plumber with the license that was sent to our home, walked off the job when we asked him to uninstall 3 toilets that were the wrong brand we asked for Toto or Kohler toilets and he installed American Standard. He flipped out, swore at us and walked off the job. We had a water softener replaced as well. The one we replaced was in working condition and he took it with him when we were gonna use it somewhere else. It was never returned, even though we asked for it. They tried to sneak on an extra $500 for an extra hose bit. The most dishonest company I have ever seen from lying about plumbers having plumbing license, lying about Better Business Bureau accreditation, and rating. Lying on invoicing total bill. 14,000"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Yes, sewage smells can originate from a floor drain. If the P-Trap in the floor drain dries out or if there's a clog or other issue in the plumbing system, sewer gasses can escape through the drain, causing nasty odors. Regularly pouring water into the drain helps maintain the water seal and prevent those smells, but if the smell persists, you should have a plumbing professional inspect the drain for potential problems.

Regular maintenance, such as not disposing of grease or coffee grounds down the sink and routine use of strainers, can prevent clogs.

In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.

A sewer line should be cleaned at least once every 18 to 22 months. The process takes about 30 minutes or up to 5 hours, depending on the size of the line, how easy it is to access, and how long it’s been since the previous cleaning. If your sewer line hasn’t been cleaned in a couple of years or you don’t even know the last time it’s been cleaned, it’s time to call a pro.

The cost to repair a main sewer line clog is about $3,110 on average. The average cost range is  $1,310 to $4,950, but it can go as low as $215 and as high as $9,300 or more. The cost factors for this repair include the severity of the clog, pipe accessibility, video inspection, removal method, permits, pipe material, labor rates in your area, and time of year. Repairs made from outside during the winter can be more difficult due to the frozen ground or during the spring if the ground is saturated from a lot of rain and snow melt.
