I found Affordable Plumbing on Angie's List, called, and Don came within 3 hours. He identified the plugged sewer drain and snaked it right away which fixed the problem. While checking to see that all drains were working, he discovered a corroded drain pipe in the furnace room, beneath the concrete surface. He didn't have time to fix it then but made it workable until he could return, which he did after New Year's day. He fixed the hole in the pipe and tied in the condensation line from the furnace/AC. His work was efficient and high quality. He showed me everything he did and explained the work. I was very pleased with the service he provided. The $450 I was charged included two visits to my home and fixes for two separate problems.

We discovered at 9:45pm on a Sunday night that our basement floor drain had backed up and flooded our finished basement. I called a plumber's emergency service, and they also recommended Vander Laan Sewer Service. Roger took my call (at 11pm on a Sunday night!), put us right on his schedule for Monday morning, and suggested some cleanup we could do in the meantime. On Monday morning, he showed up right on time and was able to quickly clear the drain. He snaked a cable through and ground up the tree root that had blocked the drain. He also gave me maintenance tips to make sure the pipe stayed open. I appreciate the professional job that Roger does, and I also appreciate how courteous and friendly he is--even after getting a late-night emergency call. His prices are reasonable and his work is top notch. I will certainly be working with him in the future (ideally just for maintenance, not another emergency!).

(Lovely.) McDonald was recommended by a friend, so a plumber came out and ran a plumber down the sewer to see what the problem was. He said that the sewer, oddly enough, went to the back of the house instead of the front, like the city records show, and that was going to be a very big problem. We weren't sure about that, so we had the owner, Scott, come out and give us more information. He talked us through the process of a new sewer, and since we were so skeptical about the sewer heading to the back out of the house, he offered to have his "number one" camera guy come double-check. Thankfully, that double-check revealed the sewer was going out the front of the house after all! So, we weren't able to fully move forward on the massive job until after a third McDonald employee came out, which is why I put them as a "B" for quality. But they were completely professional, took care of all the necessary paperwork to rip up our street, and made it as painless as possible for us after that. Some of the guys overlooked in the notes where the water pump needed to be moved, so we had them back out to fix it. They were quick to admit that it was their error and, though they couldn't fix it completely, they did the best they could. Appreciated their honestly. They were also patient with us while we got a second opinion for such a big job AND while we waited for the sellers to pitch in for the cost.

FAQs for sewer line repair projects in Kentwood, 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.
