"Entoni and the crew came to clear a sewer line blockage and create a video of the line. The trap had been hidden under the flooring by the previous owner. This team would not walk away until the job was completed successfully. They located the trap, snaked the line and provided me with the video. I admire their professionalism and perseverance. I highly recommend them!"

"Great experience with Eno Plumbing. They responded right away, although it was 6 am. Came shortly afterwards. Offered me several options to deal with my broken water heater. Went out of the way to accommodate my every wish. Installed it fast, clean and very professional. Took care of another problem I had with my circulation pump. Picked up used items and cleaned after themselves. Very friendly and positive e guys. Recommend to everyone."

He does the job right the first time and helps you plan ahead for the future. We needed our entire sewer line replaced & he worked with us on a price we could afford for a huge job. I highly recommend him!"

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.

If you’re wondering whether rats can come up the toilet, the unfortunate answer is yes, it’s possible, though it’s extremely rare. These rodents are excellent swimmers and can travel through sewer pipes in search of food, and they may follow plumbing lines leading to your home if they’re drawn by the scent of scraps and waste. The toilet’s U-bend holds a small pocket of air, which can help a rat catch its breath before making its final push into your bathroom. While more common in cities with larger rat populations, this can happen anywhere with connected sewer systems; sealing entry points and keeping drains clean can help reduce the risk.

You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.

Thankfully, it’s pretty rare to find a rat in your toilet. It’s more likely in larger cities with big sewer systems that can be feeding grounds for rats, but even then, you still shouldn’t fret. 

“I wouldn’t worry too much about rats coming up through the sewers,” Bradshaw says. “I’d say only one out of a thousand rodent customers we get actually have this problem. And of the 20 or some customers that have had this happen, they’ve all only had just one rat come up this way.”

Avoid flushing non-degradable items, schedule regular inspections, and address minor clogs promptly.
