A blockage in the sewer line can cause raw sewage back up, and then find its way into showers, tubs, and sink drains throughout your home. Sewer line backups usually result in costly repairs. The cost of having to replace vanities, floors, and even support joists because of the back-up of a sewer main could surpass the expense of plumbing repairs very quickly, making prompt detection and repair crucial in reducing the cost.

Cleaning the main sewer line could be completed by homeowners willing to be messy. First, turn the main water line to the home off.

Hydro jetting is a great option for drains that are intact and have heavy buildup of scale or root intrusion. We can eliminate stubborn roots and dislodge years-old buildup with high pressure water streams as well as the jetting nozzle that is specially designed for this purpose.
