"In February I had a tech named Chad come to fix a squealing toilet. He insisted it wasn’t the fill valve but the inlet valve behind the toilet. When remounting the toilet he made ME, who just had open abdominal surgery help him remount the toilet! He flushes it 3 times, still squealing. He knows he hasn’t fixed the issue but still charges me and leaves. Like I said, I’m recovering from a major operation & this was a toilet in my rental unit located above my unit. I wasn’t renting it out at the time so I let it go for a few months bc you know recovering from illness and working 50 hours a week gets in the way. The part & work was supposedly under warranty for 1 year. I had another plumbing service cone and look at the squealing toilet. They replaced the fill valve. After 8 flushes- squealing again. Stays for another hour repeatedly flushing the toilet then leaves with problem not fixed. I go to my unit, HUGE hole in my ceiling. Clearly the toilet has been leaking every times it’s flushed and just sat in the floor/ceiling until it got too wet and the plaster gave away. Call roto rooter- they take 2 days to come and are no where in the time window. If I had a tennant at the time this would be an EMERGENCY but they take their sweet time. They come and replace the fill valve AGAIN. They admit Chad had no idea what he was doing. They said I would be refunded for the damage, lost money from not being able to rent it, and the original call. In comes the arrogant Ozie Soarks. He will ONLY send some third party restoration company to “fix the damage”. This third party company is even more rude and stupid than roto rooter and wants to rip up my place, leave it dry for 2 weeks, then only patch the hole. According to the two companies my insurance company sent out, they said the floor of the bathroom was also shot and needed repaired. So I had to use the insurance company Incase there were future issues, if this claim wasn’t followed through I’ll be liable for all future issues since this would be “pre existing” if not fixed right. This ends up being a $5,000 claim. Again I have to deal with this Ozie moron. He says he’s done with me bc I cancelled the home restoration he recommended. When I explain they couldn’t fix all the damage he tries to mansplain to me and says “Mistakes happen” and they’re not liable. Sending inexperienced techs that don’t know what they’re doing is absolutely their problem. I work in healthcare, if I make a mistake someone dies. I’m so sick of people not standing behind their work with garbage excuses. I’m like you need to refund me bc after ALL of this the toilet is squealing again SO loudly you can hear it in the yard. Ozie blames this on a wax ring. It’s not the F$&@ing ring!!! Ozie tells me that he’s “done with me & I can call the BBB and my lawyer” and hangs up. Buckle up buddy!!!!!"

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.
