"They were prompt, kept everything clean and didn t rip me off, but instead advised me why a Tankless Electric Water Heater wasn t a good idea for my needs and they cost more. I m very happy with their Plumbers and honesty."

"Great service from Anchor Plumbing! Without hesitation, they scheduled a technician to come out on a Sunday to fix an issue with my water meter connection. Nathan did an excellent job—professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. I really appreciated the quick response and willingness to help on a weekend. I will definitely use Anchor Plumbing again for any future plumbing needs. Highly recommend!"

"I ended up needing a full sewer line replacement including the main line and 2 auxiliary lines from the kitchen sink & washing machine! My house, built in 1967, had the original cast iron pipes! I got quotes from 3 companies including Alb’s Brothers. Alb’s Brothers was the only company during initial inspection to even look & uncover one of the clean outs which under a big steel plate. They found the 2nd too! They gave me a reason quote which includes a 3 yr warranty on their work! They have an excavation team that is very hard workers & skilled in this. They dug under the foundation not even recommending to jackhammer thru it! They didn’t cut corners when digging. An explanation was given including pictures, etc all along the way. They answered my many questions & concerns with quick responses by text, email and/phone calls. This is a family owned company & you can tell ! They were respectful, honest & have integrity. They want me as a lifetime customer & I will be!!"

"I called Young's Plumbing & Drain Cleaning very early and expected to get an answering service and have to wait for a call back. Imagine my surprise when a plumber answered the phone and was at my house about 30 or 45 minutes later. They were here for about 2 minutes and found the source of the problem. It took them a very short amount of time to fix the problem. They then went above and beyond their jobs by cleaning up the water caused by the broken water line and the additional mess you will find under a refrigerator that hasn't been moved in awhile because I am disabled. I honestly thought when I received the bill that I would have to take a 2nd mortgage because it was 8 on a Saturday morning after all. I could not believe how low his bill was for all they did. I am a loyal customer from today forward!!

"I needed to repair the sewer/water line under my house. I contacted several plumbers, but felt most comfortable with Alb’s Brothers Plumbing. Francisco contacted me and provided a free inspection. He explained the problem thoroughly and what needed to be done to complete the job. He worked with my budget and was very understanding. Francisco was helpful, courteous and went the extra mile to complete the job. He repaired the pipe while it was raining and I’m sure past his working hours. I had a pleasant experience with Francisco and Alb’s Brothers Plumbing. I would recommend this company for all your plumbing needs!"

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

If your drain doesn’t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.

You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. Sewer line replacement costs about $60 to $250 per linear foot.

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

The cost to clean a sewer line is about $370, ranging from about $190 to $550 on average. The specific cleaning method and the problem's severity will impact the project's overall cost. Some of the most common sewer line cleaning methods include:

  • Snaking or rodding: $100–$250

  • Hydrojetting: $350–$600

  • Chemical treatments: $600–$1,000

  • Repair or replacement: $1,000–$7,500

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.
