"Getting dependable assistance for a home from the 70s can be challenging, but these guys made a tough situation manageable. We encountered a major issue with our main sewer pipe clogging, which caused an overflow in the garage, and I can't speak highly enough about Five Stone Plumbing Services. Robert and Cody are truly professional and dedicated, and they worked diligently to resolve the problem. Their expertise and friendly attitude made a stressful situation much easier for us, and we're so grateful for their excellent service. They spent seven hours working nonstop in freezing temperatures to get everything back up and running. Even with the tough conditions and the nature of the job, they kept a great attitude and stayed positive the entire time. They even went the extra mile and flushed out our old water heater as a courtesy while they were here. It is rare to find people who truly stand by their work like this. If you need plumbing help, I highly recommend giving them a try."

"They contacted us from angie's list first so we hired them to clean out our septic tank. Long story short the tank was in bad shape and had to be replaced. We had to put the new tank in a different spot because it needed to be up to code. They quoted us a very good price and my husband specifically asked about possible overages. They said there would be none. The job turned out to be very complicated and they spent more time and used more resources than they expected. They charged us exactly what they said they would. They were outstanding!"

"I was having problems with my sink not draining and called P3 Plumb Purple Plumbing for help. When he arrived, he quickly diagnosed the issue and explained that my P-trap had been installed incorrectly and that my sink needed a Studor vent. He made the repairs right away, and since then I haven't had a single problem. He was very responsive, professional, and took the time to explain everything clearly. The work was completed quickly, and his pricing was very competitive. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable plumber!"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

There are many things that could cause your basement floor drain to back up. One significant cause of a drainage backup is flushing non-flushable items, such as wipes, paper towels, and facial tissue. Other causes of a backed-up basement floor drain include tree roots impeding the drain pipe or an accumulation of hair, oil, and grease. 

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.

Professional tools include drain snakes, hydro jets, cameras for line inspection, and enzymatic or chemical cleaners for dissolution.

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.

It is generally safe to stay in a house that smells like sewage for a short time, but you should get the problem fixed as soon as possible. While the level of sewer gas is usually low enough to only cause minor symptoms, prolonged inhalation can lead to headaches, nausea, or respiratory irritation. High levels of gas exposure can be more dangerous, and high concentrations of methane—a component of sewer gas—can pose an explosion risk in enclosed spaces. If you smell sewer gas in your home, ventilate the area and call a professional to locate, assess, and fix the problem, as it will not go away on its own.
