"The owner of Titan was highly professional and communicative. He arrived when he said he would for the estimate and took a look at a few other things as I'm a new home owner and wanted his opinion on some general plumbing stuff. I wanted a sump pump installed and I had an issue with an exterior drain not being able to keep up with heavy rains. He correctly diagnosed the issue, came up with a plan to run an extra drain and his guys did the install in one work day, including the cleaning of the work space. I will hire again for any future plumbing needs."

"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!"

Cleaned up afterward, and gave advise on how to keep pipes clean and running in the future. He standed by the quote he gave me, a plus. Great job!"

"I had a severely clogged drain in my basement sink and the water was backing up. A previous company that I hired was not able to clear the blockage. Vannes came to my house on a Sunday and spent a good amount of time and cleared the blockage. I would definitely use this company again. The technician was very neat and polite."

"Love these guys! I called around 9 this morning and spoke with Elpidio. After texting a photo of our kitchen drain problem to him he was able to send me a quote, a contract and put me on the schedule for 3pm same day! As soon as I paid the deposit online we were set. Two of his colleagues actually came early (they called first) and finished within an hour. Clean and efficient and great price. We found our new go-to plumbers!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.

DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and specialized equipment requirements. Hire professionals for effective clearing.

On average, a plumber will take 30 minutes to two hours to clear a clogged drain. If the clog is located close to the drain or an access point and isn’t severe, the project will take about half an hour. If the clog is deep within your plumbing system or is a severe blockage, it can take two or more hours to remove the clog. For this reason, main line clogs tend to take longer, usually between two and three hours.

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.

The P-trap (or S-trap in older homes) under your shower is designed to prevent sewer gas from coming back up, so you shouldn’t normally experience foul odors coming from your shower drain. If you do, the vent stack that introduces air into your plumbing system may be clogged, or you may have a more severe sewer main blockage. In either case, hire a plumber to fix the issue for you.
