"I called for an estimate and AJ was able to see me the following day. He was punctual, professional, personable, knowledgeable and explained everything very clearly. I was presented with two options. One for the straight repair of the broken component, and the other included repair and sewer relining from the house to the sewer main in the street. I chose the relining option for peace of mind after obtaining an estimate from another company. One week after the initial visit my work crew arrived (Dan, Matt and Jordon). They were fantastic, always on time, conscientious, attentive to my concerns, and advised me of the progress and findings. Additional breaks in the sewer line were found from the point of the primary problem toward the main sewer line, both within the portion the I as the homeowner was responsible and the portion that the city sewer department was responsible for. This required a quick adjustment to the scope of work. Dan communicated with the main office and made sure I understood what was going on. I also received a call from one of the owners of the company (Josh) later the same evening who went into detail on the changes, and pricing that included the expanded scope. Josh was very understanding and did his best to minimize the additional cost required. I was exceedingly happy with all of my interactions with this company. And want to give AJ, Dan, Matt and Jordon a huge shout out for a great job."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.”

Regardless of the drain cleaner type you choose to use, they all work through chemical reactions that create heat. Thanks to the heat, the clogged hair begins to dissolve until it is able to be flushed away. To avoid clogs in your drain due to hair, use hair catchers and empty them out after every shower.

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.

A professional drain cleaner is a plumber or specialized drain cleaner with the necessary tools to unclog drains and tiles to keep waste water flowing out to the septic tank or city sewer for processing. Keeping wastewater from backing up into your home helps keep you and your family safe from potential contamination and sickness. These pros can help resolve nearly any drain situation in a safe and efficient manner.
