Small jobs welcome

"I called for this service because I was afraid my drain might become clogged after I kept hearing a "suspicious" noise. Thought it would be better to find out if there was a problem rather than wait until the basement flooded! When I called, Jason said he could come two days later, so I made the appointment. An hour later, he called and said he had a cancellation and did I want him to come right away. I did! He carefully tested each toilet and drain, but even though he heard the sound, he felt that it was only air in the pipes, nothing serious. To be sure, he checked the main drain, which needed to be cleaned out (10 years since the last time). I asked him to clean it, and he took care of it immediately. He was personable, professional and very efficient--returning the storage room to its original condition after the work, and charged a very reasonable amount for the job. Unlike some larger companies, he didn't charge a huge amount just to show up, and didn't suggest all kinds of things to be done that were not needed. I recommend him very highly, and have already put his number into my contact list for the next time I'm worried about a plumbing issue!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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

To unclog the drain pipe, remove the machine's drain hose from the pipe or sink drain, being careful to contain any water in it. Next, use a plunger for sink drains or a plumbing snake for a wall drain. Test the repair by pouring a small amount of water into the pipe before trying it with a laundry load.

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.

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

Most commercial liquid drain cleaners work in 15 to 30 minutes. Consult the label on the bottle for additional instructions or time suggestions to prevent damage to your drainpipes. Alternative solutions such as baking soda, salt, white vinegar, and/or boiling water can take longer since they are less harsh than liquid drain cleaners.
