"Owner Nick came out on short notice on a Friday afternoon when Roto-Rooter canceled at the last minute. Professional, organized, knowledgeable. Cleared my completely clogged kitchen drain (a mix of PVC and galvanized pipes in an older home) that I'd tolerated for 4 days - with state-of-the-art equipment. Explained options before he came and while he was working. Cleaned up thoroughly. Highly recommend. Support local independent businesses!"

"Called ODP to come and give me an estimate for a repair of a main water line leak. Zach came out and priced out a couple of options from repair to replacement of the old line along with the risks of choosing one option over another. I went with the repair option. Zach and Eric came out quickly and had the repair completed in a few hours. I was very impressed with the quality of the repair, and they left the yard clean and with my wife's approval (not easy to get). The repair utilized really good quality materials so I have no doubt this leak is fixed! I will have no reservations in using these guys again."

"Edwin Lazo installed new faucets and drains throughout the house following the installation of new granite countertops. Along with connecting a garbage disposal and a new line for refrigerator water and ice. He answered all my many questions and took the time to problem solve a future project with me. He was prompt, careful about cleaning up, and overall, did an excellent job."

"The technician arrived early and did an awesome job installing both brackets and fans. He explained the whole process and kept the work area very clean. He even disposed of the boxes and materials from both fans and the boxes for the braces I had purchased! Both fans are running smoothly and look great. This is our third time using Streamline Plumbing and Electric, and the third different technician who has come to our home. All three of them are extremely courteous and hard working. They also are great at answering additional questions that you might have and recommending courses of action to take. When you call the office, they are always very courteous and work with you to find an available time slot. They call before to remind you, and they call when the technician is on his way. They really are a superior company, and we are so excited to know that we have a company that we can trust to do good work on our home."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

As a preventative measure, hydro jetting should be done every one to two years. However, the best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age and condition of your pipes, how prone they are to clogging, how often the sewer line is used, and the type of waste disposed of in the system. If you frequently experience clogs or are unsure, it's best to ask a licensed plumber for a recommendation specific to your plumbing system.

A washing machine should drain the water used during its cycle through a drainpipe and out through the house’s plumbing. This is the same plumbing that sinks and shower drains run to, and if the U-bend is installed correctly, it shouldn’t smell. The total drainage from the house is then integrated into the city sewer system or, if you’re in the country, dispersed into a septic tank.

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

Most clogs are resolved quickly, often within an hour. More complex issues requiring pipe disassembly might take longer.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.
