How much does it cost to have the drain and sewer cleaned in Fort Lauderdale?

On average, the cost can range from $150 to $500. Simple clogs that require snaking or hydro jetting may fall on the lower end of the range, while more complex clogs or extensive sewer line cleaning may be on the higher end. Additional costs may apply if there are damaged pipes or the need for camera inspections. To get an accurate cost estimate, it's advisable to contact local plumbing professionals who can assess the situation and provide a detailed quote.

How do I know if my main sewer line is clogged in Fort Lauderdale?

There are several signs that can indicate a clogged main sewer line. First, multiple drains in your home may be slow to empty or completely backed up. You might also notice gurgling sounds coming from drains or toilets when using water elsewhere in the house. Unpleasant odors, especially near drains or in the basement, can also be a sign. Additionally, if you experience frequent toilet backups or water backups in the lowest drains of your home, it could indicate a clog in the main sewer line. If you suspect a clog, it's best to contact a professional plumber to perform an inspection and provide appropriate solutions.

Upon arrival to the location, I met security who called unit number to assure someone was there. Moreover, when I got upstairs, the tenants were still there from my previous visit. I got to the bathroom, shut the emergency valve off and removed the old flush valve. I got the new one situated and assured no leaks before applying the flapper. I then got it all connected and filled the tank and took a photo of the water level and after 6 mins the level held. In addition, on my previous visit, after 6 mins the level had dropped. Hence, all is well at the moment. Tech will furnish and install new 3” flush valve with flush seal and assure no more leaks. 1 year part and labor warranty.

upon arrival to the home, I submitted an estimate to the homeowner and David the property manager for a Watermain line repair. Customer is currently not home and I explained to David the property manager due to the homeowner being out of town. I am going to pressurize the main line, but I am going to turn the main valve off at the house to ensure no leaks in the house while customer is out of town. I also submitted another estimate via online for a new 1 inch check valve coming out of the meter due to the existing one having severe corrosion, which is severely restricting the flow and customer agreed online. Customer is not reachable to collect payment.

Upon arrival for a membership visit, I advised customer I would be doing a plumbing inspection on the unit to make sure that everything was running properly. Customer mentioned that John the plumber has done most of the plumbing in the condo. During the inspection, customer asked if she was able to connect a hose to her bathroom faucet so she can wash the outside of her windows. I explained to the customer that the faucet is not set up for a hose. I informed customer that she would need to go purchase an adapter and screw it in in place of the aerator. Customer was not able to get the aerator off. After several attempts, I explained to the customer that because of the age of the faucet there’s a lot of corrosion and rust in the threads. I advised customer that her best option would be to replace the faucet. Customer agreed And I installed a simplicity faucet chrome.

Upon arrival to the location, we met Alex who was temporarily on a work call but quickly explained that he had a very small leak in his kitchen cabinet. The apartment is from 2006, in 2022 he renovated everything in the home. The water heater which was in the garage is the only thing still from 2006. I brought it to his attention and told him we’ll show him an option to get it replaced as the life expectancy is about 10 years. Moreover, we looked under the sink to check what was leaking and noticed water coming from the RO faucet. We then ran the faucet and realized it was leaking internally. Hence, Alex mentioned it’s still under warranty, he’ll call them to get a new one.

Upon arrival to location, we met with Bill who showed us inside. I asked Bill if he was ready for us to shut water off, he mentioned we were good. He then stated he had to step out and would be back within 20-30 minutes. I told him we would begin working and we should be at the home by the time he arrives. We removed the old toilet, emergency shut off valve and began cleaning the area entirely before setting new wax seal and bolts. We then set the toilet and hooked up the new shut off with supply line and tested for leaks by flushing numerous times. The toilet was not leaking, we caulked around based and all is operating accordingly at the moment. Tech will furnish and install new one piece toilet with new shut off valve and supply line. 1 year part and labor warranty.

After further investigation and a diagnostics fee, I came to the conclusion that it was the Moen Pozzi temp cartridge. I provided an estimate to replace this cartridge and gave 100% of the diagnostics fee back to customer During my investigation, I offered the homeowner a home filtration system due to the extreme calcification, corrosion and hard water marks on the shower door. customer stated that he was going to have to talk it over with his wife before committing to the two stage Atlas home filtration system.

I responded to a service call at the customer’s home regarding a toilet that wouldn’t stop running. After diagnosing the issue, I found that the fill valve had failed and the existing supply line was also worn and due for replacement. I removed the faulty components and installed a new fill valve and a reinforced supply line. After installation, I tested the toilet multiple times to ensure proper operation. The toilet is now functioning correctly with no signs of leaking or continuous running. Customer was satisfied with the repair and the issue has been fully resolved.

Responded to main line stoppage. Performed two passes with 75 ft of heavy-duty cable to restore flow. Once flow was temporarily restored, conducted a video inspection of the main sewer line using a high-resolution sewer camera. Inspection revealed significant scale buildup and heavy internal deposits along the pipe walls, indicating advanced pipe degradation. Recommendation: Due to the severity of the scale accumulation, we strongly recommend high-pressure hydro jetting followed by mechanical descaling to thoroughly remove buildup and restore the pipe's internal diameter. Failure to address this promptly may result in recurring blockages and potential pipe damage.

Customer reported water staining on ceiling ,thought it was related to previous work performed by jtp . Leak was dripping from ceiling tile within commercial office space. Upon arrival, performed visual inspection above drop ceiling and located the source of the leak. Determined that water was discharging from a ¾” PVC condensate drain line connected to a rooftop HVAC unit. Noted that the leak is HVAC-related and outside the scope of licensed plumbing services. Informed customer that a licensed HVAC technician is required to inspect and service the condensate system to correct the issue and prevent further water damage. No plumbing-related defects or failures were found. No repairs performed. Diagnostic assessment and professional recommendation only.

Upon arrival, the customer directed us to the clean-out, which was actively overflowing. We provided an estimate to attempt to clear the blockage, which the customer approved. We proceeded to run approximately 35 feet of cable through the clean-out and encountered the blockage. After two attempts, we successfully cleared the obstruction. We then flushed all fixtures to verify proper drainage—everything is flowing freely. The customer confirmed they were satisfied with the work performed.

Upon arrival to the location, I met with security who was aware of my visit. She mentioned she had to take me upstairs since nobody would be there. Moreover, I got to the apartment and took a look at the bathroom, there’s only one in the apartment. The toilet guts didn’t look worn out but I flushed and watched it for a few minutes. I took time lapse photo and after 6-7 mins, I noticed the water level in the tank begin to show a decrease. I believe the flush valve itself should be replaced as a whole to avoid any other possible leaks. I called Tim on a recorded line and explained what was going on and he agreed with my comments. In addition, he mentioned he changed the fill valve not too long ago and the flapper is pretty new as well. Thus, he agreed on the estimate over the phone to replace the flush valve but I mentioned we will have to come back for that because we don’t stock those in the truck.

Renee also had her main valve replaced now to long ago to a 1/4 turn which is good. She then showed me the three toilets she wanted to change. She wanted to buy her own, I told her that’s not a problem, I just mentioned to make sure the measurements are correct.

Includes both Option 1 and 2, and adds the installation of a new water filter. This filter will be mounted securely to the wall behind the washer and connected directly with new professional-grade water lines for easy future filter changes. Includes literature from both quotes Option 1: Cap off the existing water line by turning off the shutoff valve and reconnect it once the new refrigerator is delivered. Option 2:Redoing the water line near the AC and eliminating the current inline filter, aiming to prevent any future issues. Quote was reduced off original price book price of $1175 due to us not having install a faucet only the filter.

River the Plumber is very knowledgeable and fixed my water heater. He did a very good job. He noticed the previous plumber installed the water heater wrong and it caused sparks where it was connected and the part was burned out and River needed to replace it because there was no hot water. I could not take a shower for four days. River works for John the Plumber. He is the only person I would use in this company.
