"Let me begin by stating the gentleman who did the work at my house was very polite and thus far I have no concerns regarding the work he did. He replaced a water line to my fridge and put in a utility sink in the basement. However, I will never hire MJM Plumbing and Heating again because they padded the bill by at least 4 hours of labor. Did they not realize I can read a clock?? Had Michael Mimassi given me an estimate for the two small plumbing jobs and told me it would cost me over $2300 I would not have hired him. I strongly encourage hiring any plumber other than MJM."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

A sewer cleanout typically looks like a white or gray PVC pipe with a removable cap. It's often located either in your yard or basement, depending on your home's plumbing configuration. The cleanout pipe is designed to provide easy access to your sewer system for maintenance and inspections. It may be flush with the ground or slightly elevated, making it distinguishable from other pipes. When you remove the cap, you can access the sewer line directly or determine its direction, which can be helpful when you need to locate your sewer line from your house to the street.

Unlike regular cleanings, snaking your sewer line should be done as needed. There’s no reason to snake your sewer line if you don’t have any noticeable issues, like slow drainage or plugged drains. You can add it to your regular sewer cleaning checklist as a prevention method (on the same 18- to 22-month schedule), but it’s not always necessary. 

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.

No, it’s best not to leave baking soda and vinegar in the drain overnight. While using baking soda and vinegar can be helpful to clear out hair and debris in your bathtub drain, this mixture might start to corrode your drainpipes due to its caustic nature if left in the drain too long or used too often. 

Schedule regular inspections, fix minor issues promptly, and ensure proper drainage.
