Main Sewer Line Cleaning

Why your whole house is backing up (and what we do about it)

When toilets, tubs, and floor drains all back up at once, the main sewer line is the bottleneck. Roots, scale, grease, and settled pipe can slow or stop the flow leaving your home. Our licensed technicians clear the blockage the right way the first time—and verify flow before we leave.

You may need main-line cleaning if you notice:

• Multiple fixtures backing up at the same time (toilet + tub + floor drain)
• Gurgling drains or sewer odors in the basement
• Water around a basement floor drain after laundry or showers
• Slow drains throughout the home, especially after rain
• Frequent clogs that keep coming back

Our 4‑Step Main Line Cleaning Process

1. Diagnose

We locate the best access (cleanout or pulled toilet), assess symptoms, and—when needed—camera inspect to pinpoint the problem and confirm line size/material.

2. Clean

We use the right method for your line:

• Professional rodding/augering to break through heavy obstructions
• Hydro‑jetting (high‑pressure water) to scrub pipe walls and flush roots/grease

3. Verify

We run water tests and (if requested) provide color video to confirm full flow restored.

4. Prevent

We advise on root control, proper maintenance intervals, and options like installing an exterior cleanout for easier future service.

What causes main sewer clogs?

• Tree roots entering at joints (common in older clay tile lines)
• Grease buildup from kitchens
• Scale and sludge in older cast‑iron pipe
• Foreign objects and wipes that don’t break down
• Settled/offset sections or a partially collapsed pipe

If your line is damaged, we’ll show you the issue on camera and outline repair options—no pressure, just facts.
