"Avoid this company. They came out to my parents property a day earlier than expected. Started probing the ground to find the septic line and weren't able to find it. 15 minutes later water was coming out of the ground, come to find out they poked a hole in our water line. We tried giving the worker a call and he denied it...We had Johns Plumbing come out incurring a $600 charge. The owner Tommy came out looked at the pipe, said he make this right and reimburse. He never came back and ignores my calls and texts. The fact they did this to an elderly couple who are in their 80s with medical issues shows negligence. This experience not only highlighted their lack of responsibility but also revealed a disregard for the well-being of vulnerable individuals.

At Water Improvement Technologies we provide a full range of residential and commercial plumbing services including water heaters, sewer & drains, well pumps, water treatment and water filtration for both well and city water supplies, plus other general plumbing services. With many options, your family will enjoy the water they deserve with a service company to back it up.

"I don’t usually make purchases without experiencing some form of buyer’s remorse, but this investment in Water Improvement Technologies has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! From start to finish, the experience has been top-notch. My system is far more robust than the ones my neighbors purchased from larger competitors, and I’ve seen a drastic improvement in my water quality since installation. I wasn't planning to buy immediately—I only intended to do research—but after meeting Chris, the salesperson, I felt completely confident moving forward. He was incredibly knowledgeable and answered all of my questions, which made the entire sales experience surprisingly educational. I also really appreciated the water quality testing they did in my home to show me exactly where things stood before installation. The installer was equally impressive. His attention to detail was exceptional, and it was clear he cared not only about getting the system installed correctly but also about making sure everything looked perfect. The units were placed exactly where I wanted, and the new faucet hole was aligned perfectly. They even came back to ensure everything was working to my satisfaction. I’ve been recommending Water Improvement Technologies to my neighbors, and I plan to use them again in my next home. If you're considering improving your water system, I can't recommend them highly enough. A+++ service all around!"

Sewer cleaning services FAQs

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.

The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.

There are a few signs of a clog in your main sewer line that you should keep in mind.

Common signs of a sewer line clog:

  • Multiple fixtures in your home drain slowly

  • Drains in your home gurgle during or after draining

  • Water backs up into your sewer line cleanout

  • You notice foul odors in your home

The best way to confirm that your main sewer line is clogged is to hire a professional plumber to assess the situation and use a camera to inspect the inside.

In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.

You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.
