"I called DR Draining and told Dan what my problem was, he said he would see how busy his crews were doing on their schedules, and he'd call me back . When he called back he said they could be there today but it would be late when one of the workers would arrive. I said if tomorrow would be better it would be fine with me. Dan said they would be here, shortly after noon , and they would call before they arrived . Justin called hand said that he would be here in 40-45 minutes, he arrived right on schedule. He asked me a couple questions about what the problem was, I showed around the basement and where the bathrooms were, and at that point he went to his truck pulled out the tools he was going to need and started working. He came and got me within 40 minutes and said he was finished. He said the drain was cleaned out and then had me fill up the kitchen sinks we then pulled the drain plugs and flushed both toilets at the same time. There was no back up in the basement wash basin, which showed me that the problem was taken care. When I have another drain or plumbing problem I will be calling DR Drain Cleaning and will also ask if they could/would send Justin if he is available. I was very happy to have the problem resolved, the quality/neatness of the job, and the price was reasonable. Thanks OldGWer"

"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"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to clean a sewer line is about $370, ranging from about $190 to $550 on average. The specific cleaning method and the problem's severity will impact the project's overall cost. Some of the most common sewer line cleaning methods include:

  • Snaking or rodding: $100–$250

  • Hydrojetting: $350–$600

  • Chemical treatments: $600–$1,000

  • Repair or replacement: $1,000–$7,500

It's advisable to have your sewer line inspected every three to five years to ensure its proper functioning and detect any potential issues early on. However, the frequency of inspections can vary based on factors such as the age of your sewer system, the type of pipes used, and your property's location. If you notice any warning signs like slow drains, foul odors, or sewage backups, it's essential to schedule an inspection promptly, regardless of the regular maintenance schedule. 

Thankfully, it’s pretty rare to find a rat in your toilet. It’s more likely in larger cities with big sewer systems that can be feeding grounds for rats, but even then, you still shouldn’t fret. 

“I wouldn’t worry too much about rats coming up through the sewers,” Bradshaw says. “I’d say only one out of a thousand rodent customers we get actually have this problem. And of the 20 or some customers that have had this happen, they’ve all only had just one rat come up this way.”

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.
