"was on time 3 of the 4 visits. However he did not do what i asked. wanted a p trap and the kitchen drain replaced. Previous quotes said i needed whole system re-done. Wanted Him to do the whole system , he quoted me a price. never finished the kitchen sink section. He hooked my washing machine drain into the sewer drain where it wasnt before. He ran the pipes down in front of my oil barrel after i asked him to make sure that area is kept open in case i need to replace oil barrel. i have to re-do system again to take my oil barrel out to replace it and still having problems with kitchen sink. he finished with what he did on a Saturday. Sunday after doing wash had a sewer smell in house again. I called Monday and told him. He said he would be here Wednesday to look it over. Never showed. He did call later in day to try and reschedule but at that point i was to upset after going down and see what he did and didnt do. I would not recommend unless maybe you watch his entire work."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Costs range from $200 to $600, depending on the severity of the blockage and access difficulty.

Water leaking through your basement floor is a good sign of a clogged drain, but another sign of a clogged basement floor drain can include unpleasant odors coming from the drain. Also, hearing gurgling noises when water drains from the basement or having other plumbing fixtures (like toilets or other drains) backing up is a good indicator.

You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. Sewer line replacement costs about $60 to $250 per linear foot.

Ideally, you might find that you only need to clean the sewer line or remove a clog from the main line. That costs $200 to $300. However, “sewer main clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear, depending on what is causing the clog, distance from accessible cleanouts to the clog, and whether there is occupied space below the clogged line (apartment buildings, condos, etc.),” says Botelho.

The cost to unclog a sewer line is between $200 and $600, with the average homeowner spending around $380, depending on the severity of the clog. It can cost as little as $100 to snake a small clog, but you could spend up to $1,600 if you need to video inspect the line and hydrojet a large clog.
