"Spoke with Richard had a good conversation he let me ramble on. I let them know. I was gonna try some things by myself and then give them a call. You make me feel dumb to try it myself. When I couldnâ t do it, I called him and he was over pretty promptly. He quoted me a price for the whole thing and heâ s stuck to it. He found the problem cleaned up when there was an overflow and it works fine now. Just have to come fix the other five plumbing issues that arenâ t emergent."

"It went really well. They were the 3rd plumber I called. The first two said I had to tear apart all this wood in my house to repair it, and couldn't even find where the leak was coming from. Drain-O-Matic Plumbing & Drain Cleaning put a little mirror down by the tub and found the leak. He came out the same day and fixed it within half an hour. Another plumber was here for two hours and wasn't able to fix it."

"Hired ?A Real Plumber? through Angie?s List to unclog kitchen sink and main sewer line. They arrived on time and did a thorough job. They were courteous and professional and cleaned up afterward. 
I hired them again to install a sump pump. Again they were on time and very professional and courteous. They did the job in a timely manner and cleaned up afterward.

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

The cost to repair a main sewer line clog is about $3,110 on average. The average cost range is  $1,310 to $4,950, but it can go as low as $215 and as high as $9,300 or more. The cost factors for this repair include the severity of the clog, pipe accessibility, video inspection, removal method, permits, pipe material, labor rates in your area, and time of year. Repairs made from outside during the winter can be more difficult due to the frozen ground or during the spring if the ground is saturated from a lot of rain and snow melt.

In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don’t technically need a license, as they aren’t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They’ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your plumber’s professional licenses before hiring.

No, you should not see water in a sewer cleanout. If you do, it could indicate that you have a block or leak in your main sewer line—which can cause sewage to back up inside your home and potentially flood your yard. Your best bet is to call a local sewer cleaner if you notice any water or sewage around your cleanout.
