"Kevin and his crew showed up on time and solved all my issues with plumbing for a 28 year old condo. He removed and installed a new 40 gal. hot water heater, fixed a drippy faucet, and installed and removed a new bathroom sink. Service was excellent. On time and great for my pocket book. Excellent job and will recommend to all of my friends and co-workers. Awesome!"

"Two guys showed up, and got everything done. They took the time to explain some other issues I may experience, and suggested the repairs for those issues. I will be having them back to do some more clean-up and correction work on 40 year old plumbing."

"Joey came out to look at our old leaky toilet for my grandmothers house. He recommended to replace the toilet which we are very happy with. He inspected the plumbing in the basement also to make sure it was just the toilet and not any other pipes. Would highly recommend them and will use them again in the future."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Lifesaver and a True Professional – Mark is the Only Plumber We’ll Ever Call We can’t say enough great things about Prodigy plumbing and the incredible owner, Mark. Right after moving into our very first home, we faced a massive plumbing emergency that left us overwhelmed and panicked. Another company quoted us over $18,000—something that felt impossible for us to handle, especially during such a stressful time. That’s when Mark came along & saved our lives. Not only did he show up quickly and assess the situation with honesty and care, but he went above and beyond to help us out of the goodness of his heart. He was personable, professional, and most importantly, trustworthy. You could feel that he genuinely cared about helping us, not just making a profit. Mark did the work efficiently, thoroughly, and at a fraction of the price we were originally quoted. Thanks to him, our home is now safe and functioning properly, and we’ll never use anyone else for plumbing again."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Depending on the home, wastewater either goes into a septic tank and seeps back into the backyard or is sent via sewer system to a local sewage-treatment plant. Septic systems naturally separate different components of the waste so that it can naturally and safely disperse it. They are usually reserved for homes not served by a municipal sewage department (like rural homes). A treatment plant, on the other hand, speeds up that process through screening and purification.

In most states, companies that perform sewer cleaning services don’t need specific licensing, but you should always ensure you hire a licensed and certified plumber to get the work done. You can use our state licensing tool to check whether the potential sewer cleaning company holds a plumber’s certification and license. Hiring a certified sewer cleaning services guarantees that the work will be done safely, there won’t be additional damage done to your home, and the problem will be fixed.

Homeowners insurance usually doesn’t cover sewer backups because it’s typically an avoidable problem with proper maintenance. The only exception would be if the backup is occurring because of local flooding and only if your city uses a combined drainage system for stormwater and sewage. If that’s the case, your policy should cover any resulting damage.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and specialized equipment requirements. Hire professionals for effective clearing.
