"The plumber was very knowledgeable and courteous. He was not pushy and was able to complete the work in a timely manner, very clean, and responsive. He was very thorough and explained everything he was going to do before I agreed to him doing the work. It was a Great experience!"

"They came to my house within 30 minutes, found the leaking pipe, turned off the water.  Then they cleaned the entire house that the water damaged.  James was so good, they made the house look better than before the leak.  The supervisor arrived shortly after, fully explaining the process and helped me make an insurance claim.  Very helpful because I had never made a claim before.  They came in next day, cutting out wet walls and they found mold.  Immediately they contained the area with a enclosure and hooked up some fancy equipment that the tech told me would keep the mold from spreading.  He was very helpful explaining the entire process.  With in a week, they had cleaned up the water mess, removed the mold, put some sort of sealant on the mold which he told me would prevent it coming back in those spots, and then they rebuilt the walls, cleaned all my carpets, repainted.  The amazing part was that 911 Restoration communicated with us so well, we knew exactly what was going to happen every step of the way.  Thank you for respecting us as a family in need and treating us as if we were your family.  Truly made this hard part of our lives much easier.

Sewer Cleaning questions, 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.

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.

It can take anywhere from half an hour to a few hours to fix a main line clog, depending on the cause and severity of it. The job should not take more than a day to complete. Keep in mind that the main line is not the same as your home’s sewer lines (which connect to the main line and run to your house). Your city is responsible for any clogs or damage to the main line itself.

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.

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.
