"I was totally happy with their work. They went beyond my expectations. They even checked the sewer line to see if it was in good shape. That also went under the house to replace a small section of galvanized drain pipe with a plastic pipe.Our kitchen drain is draining great. It turns out that the vent in the drain was plugged. We would recommend them to anyone. Joanne Tomlinson"

"We had our sewer line spot repaired due to root encroachment. This is an expensive repair, no matter what company you use. They gave us a competitive bid, got us on the schedule, and did the work as promised (showed up when agreed upon, left the area cleaned up, and sent us a photo/video of the work done)."

"Had an emergency and severe drain clog, turned out to be quite a puzzle, but Dan was persistent in trying to solve the problem and ultimately did. He was friendly and professional and left things clean even though he had to pull out a range of equipment to fix the issue. We were nervous about hiring an outfit in an emergency, but this one turned out well and we can recommend them to others."

"From the time I submitted the request on HomeAdvisor, they came out within two hours. Jeremy, the technician was very professional, identifying the problem, and recommending the solution. He was able to correct the problem within an hour timeframe and was able to show me on his scope the inside of the sewer line. He did a great job of explaining the problem in terms I could understand, and cleaned up thoroughly prior to leaving. I would definitely use his service again should I need it!"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

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.

There are a few things that can happen to your sewer system if you don’t fix it. These include rainwater entering it and causing rust and corrosion, dirt and debris leading to blockages, small animals getting stuck inside and clogging your sewer line or entering your home, and shortening the sewer system’s life span. 

Without a cap, nothing prevents toxic and non-toxic gasses like methane and hydrogen sulfide from slowly escaping your sewer system and entering your home and the surrounding atmosphere, resulting in a foul sewer odor throughout your house.

The type of clog in your sewer main determines the required cleaning method. Different types or methods of sewer main cleaning require various tools like chemicals, mechanical removal, or a combination of both. Some of the most common types of sewer main line cleaning include:

  • Minor debris removal: $100–$600

  • Tree root removal: $100–$1,000

  • Trenchless pipe repair: $60–$250 per linear foot

  • General line repairs: $1,000–$4,000

  • Full pipe replacement: $3,000–$25,000

Roto-Rooter does not charge by the hour, so the quote you get after your in-person consultation should cover the whole project. This includes the time it takes a technician to get to your house and the time it takes to complete the job. For context, a plumber will charge anywhere from $45 to $200 per hour, but you may also pay a service fee or flat fee.
