"They are awesome!!! Just bought a house and had a main sewer line backup issue. Roto Rooter came a couple of times never resolved anything and then tried to tell us the job we needed was going to be $11,000. I contacted Joe, he came over the same day and had the job done in less than two weeks for less than half of what roto rooter was trying to charge us. Thank you Joe...over three weeks no issues!!! You are the best!!!"

"Mike answered my request for service immediately promptly arrived a half hour later and solved my problem within 45 minutes. He was extremely courteous professional and prompt. I would highly recommend his services he left without making any additional mess and was very affordable. I sincerely hope I never need his services for a main sewer line clean out, but I would definitely call him if I have any other priblems,"

"On time. Driver/owner very knowledgeable and pleasant. Hard and through worker. Did a good job and cleaned up the worked area when done. He ran into unexpected problems and tried to clear the problem in a less expensive way but it could not be worked that way. He had to remove the 4 inch sewer piping cap and cleared the heavy grease clog. He continued to cleared out the entire 4 inch line from inside the basement to the septic tank. He had a line camera and showed me the inside of the 4 inch pipe all the way from the basement to the septic tank. And he kept to the written estimate he created before starting his work."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Most blockages can be cleared in 1-3 hours, but severe issues may take longer.

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.

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.

Outdoor plumbing issues are no less serious or urgent to fix than interior plumbing problems. These problems may require excavation and lawn repair due to the plumbing often being buried underground. The most common outside plumbing problems include:

  • Clogged landscape drainage: $200–$1,000

  • Clogged sewer lines: $60–$250 per linear foot

  • Corroded or rusted pipes: $1,500–$15,000+

  • Leaking drain lines: $200–$1,000

  • Leaking water mains: $300–$4,000+

  • Septic system failure: $600–$3,000+

  • Tree roots in pipes: $200–$1,000

  • Well pump failure: $350–$1,500

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.
