"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!!"

"Gary & Greg were very punctual and professional. They arrived when they said they would and began work immediately. They were very respectful of our home and our pets, and accomplished their task with as little damage as possible to the drywall.  The job was completed right on time, and we are very satisfied with their work.  I would highly recommend Young's Plumbing and I would definitely call them again in the future if we require any additional plumbing work.

"I was extremely pleased with the work from Alb’s Brothers Plumbing. I had a problem with my water heater where I had water leaking from my ceiling. The technician was very knowledgeable, had the correct tools and got there quick. I’m glad that I can rely on a plumbing company who is there for my plumbing needs."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

With a one-way cleanout, you can access your sewer line from one direction. Depending on the way it curves, a plumber can either access the side of the pipe that goes into your home or the side that goes to your yard. On the other hand, two-way cleanouts allow pros to access both sides of the sewer line, thanks to their dual-pipe design (they’re usually U-shaped).

If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.

Yes, rats can come up through drains. They can crawl through basement floor drains, lateral house drains, and roof drains. Installing rat blockers in your drains is the best way to repel rats and prevent them from entering your pipes. These are one-way valves that allow water and waste to flow out but keep rats from getting in.

The cost to repair a main sewer line clog is about $3,110 on average. The average cost range is  $1,310 to $4,950, but it can go as low as $215 and as high as $9,300 or more. The cost factors for this repair include the severity of the clog, pipe accessibility, video inspection, removal method, permits, pipe material, labor rates in your area, and time of year. Repairs made from outside during the winter can be more difficult due to the frozen ground or during the spring if the ground is saturated from a lot of rain and snow melt.
