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.

To get an accurate cost estimate, it's advisable to contact local plumbing professionals who can assess the situation and provide a detailed quote.
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.

Job Locations and Reviews

Upon arrival. Customer showed me laundry sink that had a stoppage Gave landlord option to reconfigure outside drain line and install a clean out with a outside Studer vent Customer agreed at this time everything is installed Customer has one year warranty parts and labor Stoppage is clear

Upon arrival we were shown to a leaking water heater and one submerged in water. An estimate to replace it was agreed on and after installation we ensured hot water was present and no leaks were present. I turned on the Valve to the other heater and it has no leaks coming from it as of now.

We came out today to replace the gas valve that Rheem supplied to the customer under warranty.

I came back to customer to install a heater pan for inspection. It required me to drain down the heater and disconnect from water supply & electric. I installed pan and reconnected the heater. Also provided straps for the electrical wire. I had to inform customer that his breaker is over amped and will not pass inspection. I explained to him that code will fail him for an over amped breaker. His previous install was grandfathered in under old code. However, because he had to change the heater, he is required to bring it up to code. I advised him to call an electrician and have a 20 amp breaker installed instead of existing 30 amp. Customer confirmed.

Upon arrival customer showed me shower valve that was leaking. I gave the customer the option to install a new shower valve. Customer stated he just finished his kitchen remodel and we were the highest estimate and he would call if he wants to move forward with the job.

ESTIMATE WRITE UP ONLY

Upon arrival customer has a back up in both bathrooms of the condo. We have an estimate to the customer to pull and reset the toilet and snake the line. Customer wants to make sure it’s not the building responsibility first and have the building examine the issue. Blockage is most likely in the vertical stack. Customer will reach out tomorrow once the building does their inspection of the stack.

Upon arrival customer advised me that her inspector informed her that her master bathroom shower was not draining properly. I advised customer I would need to run a diagnostic to determine where the blockage was. After diagnostic, I showed customer a large amount of debris in the drain. I used a shop vacuum to suck most of the drain clear. After that I promptly snaked the drain with a k45. I ran multiple tests on the shower drain and the corresponding bathroom group. All drains were free flowing. I also advised customer that I would need to check the rest of the property to make sure the plumbing integrity is upheld. I ran a brief four point plumbing diagnostic. The guest bathroom group was tested multiple times and examined. Flow rate of water was great and the drain integrity was solid. The kitchen sink was drop tested multiple times. Angle stop valves and supply lines seem to be new. There were no leaks. Sink drained with a pronounced vortex 10/10 times. The heater was receivin
Kameron was great and knew what to do right away. He corrected the original plumbers mistake and answered all my questions.

Upon arrival, customer showed me two shower valves they would like replaced. Customer explained to me they will only be estimates for today. Customer will call back when ready for install.

We will install customer supplied toilet and remove old toilet. We will also replace the angle stop which is female threaded 3/4 with a standard angle stop to connect to the new toilet. We are also charging a return fee included in this estimate.

Upon arrival to the location, I had issues finding the actual unit. I called Andrew who helped steer me in the right direction. Moreover, I got to the unit and Andrew showed inside the apartment which he just moved into, he mentioned it’s just been a couple weeks. He stated he’s having some leaks coming from the gaskets under sink. We ran some water and began to see some leaks slowly flowing from the connections. He stated that there’s suppose to be a garbage disposal there but the electrical was swapped out so there’s no switch for it. I told him we can install it and you can still use it by disconnecting it on and off until you can get an electrician to take care of the switch. He also mentioned the water needs a pan, when the place got inspected they brought that to his attention. The water heater itself is a year old, and there’s a main ball valve in the ceiling tile in front of the door to go into the apartment. Thus, I got some options based off what we discussed and he chose to

Provided two estimates. First estimate is for type L copper three-quarter inch exposed re-pipe with new ball valve. Second estimate is for type M copper three-quarter inch exposed re-pipe with new ball valve

Upon arrival to the location, I met with tenant at the front door. He explained they just got into town and the toilets were already bubbling when they began using it. After they were showering and using toilets the water began to back up. I spoke with Veronica on the phone and gave her a heads up I was in route and how much the job would cost which she okayed. I got my things set up on the roof after verifying the toilets were still backed up. I snaked 75 ft and went back downstairs and flushed both toilets and ran all the fixtures in the bathrooms and all was operating accordingly. I called Veronica and advised her the job was complete. Single story drain clearing from roof vent (Up to 75 feet) DRAIN LINE LOCATED & HAS ACCESS ALREADY/ RUN K-60 CABLE THROUGH ROOF VENT. PRICE INCLUDES 1 ATTEMPT

Upon arrival customer showed us leaking shower p trap. There was a pin hole leak just both trap. We provided an estimate to cut out the p trap and replace it with pvc. Customer agreed and we installed pvc p trap. We then turned on the water and tested for leaks. There are no leaks.
Very professional!!

Customer recently had brand new heater put in. Customer said they are not getting hot enough water. I asked customer what temperature they would prefer. Heater is set at 120. I turned heater up to 130 and customer said he wants it at 140 to be sure they have very hot water. I advised customer that the water will be extremely hot. I tested water temp and it was 134 coming out of the fixture.. customer was satisfied with temp.

Customers representative called requesting estimate for heater install since it’s 10 years old. When we arrived we noticed it was an 80 gal heater on-site currently installed in which the new light commercial units are too wide to install in these units and will hit against the main valve. Spoke to Dona in which she stated she will get approval from owners by today or tomorrow. Will follow up this evening.

Upon arrival customer has a self flushing Toto toilet that is leaking when flushed. We gave the customer an estimate to pull and reset the toilet thinking it would be the wax ring customer agreed and signed. After pulling the toilet we discovered that it was the gasket that attaches to the rough in. We were unable to able to locate the part and Toto can’t find the part either. So the customer is going to get another toilet to install. Customer is ordering the toilet and will give us a call when it’s here to schedule. Customer will also need a female angle stop 3/4 threaded to metal. Customer put down $225 dollar deposit.

Install new gas valve and pilot assembly supplied by Rheem
Very knowledgeable, thorough & professional. Would recommend!!

Upon arrival to the location, I met with security downstairs who checked me into the system and showed me upstairs. The homeowner Robert opened and showed me inside the apartment. They’ve been owners of the apartment for over 20 years but go back and forth between states. They mentioned they obviously only use the laundry when they’re in town and apparently the drain line seems to be clogged because recently they started seeing water on the ground. When they do big washes the drain backs up, but not all the time. They had an appliance guy who came out and told them it’s a plumbing issue. Moreover, I asked to see the main valve to the unit and the water heater. There’s no water heaters in the units, as the building has a boiler on the roof. Robert has a hot and cold main shut off in the apartment. In addition, I told Robert what would be the solution for the situation, he agreed by signing estimate. I got what was needed downstairs and when I got back upstairs, I moved the washer/dryer

This option includes the following New tub owner supplied install Permit fees included only for plumbing done by John the plumber Note: no warranty on owner supplied material Customer has to cover his own GC PERMIT FEES FOR REMODEL

Great company !
It can always be a bit stressful scheduling a plumber for an issue that you’re not certain what the problem is, how much it will cost and whether it can be fixed without tearing out your bathrooms porcelain tile and needing to replace it. Almost immediately upon diagnosing what he thought the issue was, Gary reassured me that he would do everything within his power to fix a complicated problem without having to remove tiles - though it was not going to be easy. Gary and Greg went right to work and were able to accomplish everything I needed done to perfection. A full cost for the job was presented and signed off on before any work began. This company is highly professional, ethical and they really care about their customers. I have a 6 year old pup that fell in love with Gary and Greg and she hopes we have another plumbing issue soon so she can hang out with them again. Following the completion of the job I received a call from the office asking if everything was completed to my satisfaction. It’s the little things that mean so much nowadays. John the Plumber is MY Plumber! The Best!
Excellent service. Very professional and efficient.
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.
Dear Linda, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re so glad to hear that River was able to fix your water heater and address the issue caused by the previous installation. His knowledge and dedication are truly commendable, and we’re thrilled that he provided the excellent service you deserve. We understand how frustrating it must have been to go without hot water for several days, and we’re happy River was able to resolve the problem for you. Your trust in him and our company means so much, and we’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. If you ever need assistance in the future, River and the rest of the John the Plumber Inc. team are always here to help!
