"was out of state on vacation, and I called just before noon to see if they had available time today to snake the drain. Not only did they come today and clear the line, but the price was also exactly what was quoted!! Andrew gave us Great Customer service and very polite, cleaned up the area better than it was when he came in. I would highly recommend this company without any reservation!!"

"I can't say enough good things about Budget Drain Cleaning. I searched Angie's List for a good company for my parents after the last one that worked on their drain wouldn't return my calls or texts. Not only did Budget Drain come out quickly - they were FAST. The young man that performed the work was knowledgeable, friendly and thorough. Unlike big-box companies that can nickle and dime you - I felt that they were incredibly fair. They also discovered the cause of the issue through the use of a camera and fixed it - I would highly recommend this company!!!!"

"After dealing with a number of unprofessional, unresponsive services, it was great to find this service. Excellent work. Instantly responsive on a Sunday and able to accommodate an immediate request. Very clean, organized, friendly, and took the time to explain the problem and best solution. Pricing was good. Came highly recommended by others in my area (Southwest Michiigan). Would use again"

"Andrew was very communicative and very knowledgeable about what was going on with our blocked main sewer line. Andrew was able to fit us in the same day we called. If we run into any more issues with our system, we are definitely calling Andrew first."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

If you’re wondering whether rats can come up the toilet, the unfortunate answer is yes, it’s possible, though it’s extremely rare. These rodents are excellent swimmers and can travel through sewer pipes in search of food, and they may follow plumbing lines leading to your home if they’re drawn by the scent of scraps and waste. The toilet’s U-bend holds a small pocket of air, which can help a rat catch its breath before making its final push into your bathroom. While more common in cities with larger rat populations, this can happen anywhere with connected sewer systems; sealing entry points and keeping drains clean can help reduce the risk.

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.

The cost to unclog a drain varies based on the location and severity of the clog. For simple clogs within your home, such as in a sink, toilet, or shower, hiring a plumber typically costs between $110 and $350, with an average of around $200. Snaking a toilet or sink usually costs between $110 and $275, while a bathtub or shower clog costs about $225.

For a more serious clog in the main sewer line, the cost is higher. Clearing a main line clog generally costs between $200 and $600, with an average of about $380. However, prices can range from as low as $100 for snaking a minor clog to over $1,600, particularly if advanced methods like video inspection and hydrojetting are needed for a large or hard-to-reach blockage. Some severe main line clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear depending on factors like the cause of the clog, its distance from an accessible cleanout, and whether the pipe is located beneath an occupied space (e.g., in an apartment building). You may be able to save money on minor clogs by using a drain snake or bladder yourself.

One way to save money on sewer lines is to install a sewer cleanout since it makes sewer line maintenance easier. Keeping up with maintenance is key to reducing the cost of repairs, so be sure to schedule annual plumbing inspections, install drain guards to stop objects from accidentally falling down drains, and only flush human waste and toilet paper to protect your pipes.

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.
