"Daniel was very responsive to my immediate need for sewer line cleaning service. He is very thorough and honest in his work and knows his trade very well as was evident from the work he performed at my property. He addressed my questions and explained the options for both short term and long term solutions to the particular issue with my sewer line. There’s no competing with the price and value of service that he offers as he goes beyond simply tackling the problem and takes extreme pride in his work. I was completely satisfied with his service on all accounts."

Customers say: Quick response

"Mark came and saved the day today. My bathroom sink and tub were not draining - when I ran the bathroom sink, water started flowing up from the drain in the bath tub. I had no idea what to expect, but expected the worst. Earlier, I had a Big Name plumbing company come, they supposedly 'snaked' the tub drain, but within a minute was telling me the drain pipe was corroded, that it was completely blocked, and we would need to replace the pipe and it would be thousands. Thank goodness my gut told me to get another opinion - In comes Scala's Sewer & Drain Cleaning, and Mark came within a half hour. He came in, looked at the situation, and confidently said "I'll have that unclogged for you" - the stress lifted from our shoulders. A very pleasant person who took the time to explain everything and even provide some helpful tips for upkeep, he worked quickly, efficiently , and neatly - Mark had the pipes flowing again. 10/10 would highly recommend!"

"We are first time home buyers and George did an excellent job showing us where plumbing and leaks may be an issue for the house that we are purchasing. We ended up finding a red flag with the sewer lines in the basement. We highly recommend first-time home buyers to do a sewer line inspection before buying as it can help save a big headache for the future!"

"Only several hours after calling for an estimate, I had both Subie and Jay at my house with the proper equipment ready to replace by broken and leaking water heater. On top of their professionalism and attention to detail, they handled everything in a very timely manner and handled all clean up of materials and leaking water exceptionally. Would highly recommend and will more than likely rehire them in the future for any help needed."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Yes. Sewer cameras are invaluable tools that can help pros safely diagnose problems with your septic system. Without a camera to look into your system, septic issue diagnoses would be a combination of guessing and past experience. However, a camera can help confirm ideas that your pro may already have about what’s wrong.

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. 

If your drain doesn’t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.

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.

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
