"This was a basement sewer line clog which required a camera to inspect the pipe and bigger cable to clear out the clog. We have older cast iron pipes with alot of scaling that's causing the problem.. Adam was great and did a good job of explaining the problem and options going forward. He had the right equipment to get the job done. He also cleaned up the job site."

"Had a clogged main sewer lateral. ended up being tree roots. Finn did a great job and very professional. He arrived and assessed the situation and gave a price and when complete that was the price. Did most of the cleanup but still had to do more thorough cleaning as you would expect. Very reasonable pricing. Same day service. Called at 9:30am arrived at 11:am Completed at 3:00pm Thanks"

"They did get the job done. Problem was 2 weeks ago it was clogged with "flushable" wipes and yesterday another wad of wipes. I literally stopped using them before ever calling the plumbers realizing they were the issue. He fixed the clog free this time but insinuated the idea that it was my fault. Unless they got stuck in the pipes on the way to the basement not my fault for the second time. Unsure about hiring again."

"Nick G. Is professional, punctual and friendly. I had a leak coming from the kitchen sink and draining to my basement. This leak would have rotted the floor and caused considerable damage. Upon discovering this , I contacted my son, Clint Ehman, an electrician for Hoffman, to get a referral . Nick G. came out today, diagnosed the problem and fixed it. Nick fixed the problem and made my day so much better. The cost was fair and the work he did is exceptional. A shout out to a job well done. We will recommend Nick G. to family and friends."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Depending on the home, wastewater either goes into a septic tank and seeps back into the backyard or is sent via sewer system to a local sewage-treatment plant. Septic systems naturally separate different components of the waste so that it can naturally and safely disperse it. They are usually reserved for homes not served by a municipal sewage department (like rural homes). A treatment plant, on the other hand, speeds up that process through screening and purification.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

Homeowners insurance usually doesn’t cover sewer backups because it’s typically an avoidable problem with proper maintenance. The only exception would be if the backup is occurring because of local flooding and only if your city uses a combined drainage system for stormwater and sewage. If that’s the case, your policy should cover any resulting damage.

There are several common signs that your main sewer line may be clogged. Key indicators include multiple fixtures in your home draining slowly, gurgling sounds coming from drains or toilets, and water backing up into showers, sinks, or toilets. You might also notice water backing up from the plumbing system's drain cleanout, water in your basement drain, or unexplained wet patches on your lawn. Foul odors, such as the smell of raw sewage or rotten eggs, are another common symptom. The most reliable way to confirm a main sewer line clog is to hire a professional plumber to perform a camera inspection.

No, you should not see water in a sewer cleanout. If you do, it could indicate that you have a block or leak in your main sewer line—which can cause sewage to back up inside your home and potentially flood your yard. Your best bet is to call a local sewer cleaner if you notice any water or sewage around your cleanout.
