"The plumber was very nice. The job, while not technically involved, was just "pain in the butt" hard. I'm glad the plumber was not easily deterred, because to my relief, he stuck with it until he finally fixed the issue. I was kinda surprised. If he wants it...I have more work for him!"

"Don Hinkle is great to work with! I had a problem with my sewer main and he came right out the next day. He listened to the symptoms and my assessment of the problem, explored my basement with me and then investigated outside as well. He was very knowledgeable talking about what it could be, what he's seen and knew exactly what to ask and where to look to uncover the problem. He diagnosed the issue and came up with a solution and plan right away. He came the next day to rod out my sewer which was the core fix and did a great job and scoped the line before and after to show me the difference it made. Don did the work himself, he was courteous, easy to communicate with and work with, and highly effective at solving my problem. 5 stars! I'd recommend Don to anyone for what he does."

"Larry was great. I walked him through what work I wanted done and he provided three proposals. The work was scheduled and completed in a timely fashion and I couldn't be happier with the result. The only thing that I think could be improved is the process of the consultation. I originally found Larry's company via Angi. When I contacted him to come out for the consultation, there was no mention of a fee. Even though he eventually waived the fee when the job was completed, the failure to mention that seemed like an oversight."

FAQs for sewer main clearing projects in Chicago, IL

A plumber can clear a simple sewer pipe blockage in about an hour, but tougher clogs take several hours, and major problems can stretch into a full day. Remember that the city, not the homeowner, is responsible for the main municipal line. Your plumber will inspect the pipe, explain what’s happening, and give you a realistic timeline before the work begins.

Prevention comes down to smart use and routine care. Only flush water, approved liquids, and toilet paper—never wipes, floss, or cat litter. Toss food scraps and grease in the trash, and install strainers in drains to catch hair. Regular inspections can also help spot buildup early. Staying mindful of what goes down the drain is the easiest, least-expensive way to keep your line clear.

When hiring a sewer line company, don’t just focus on the price. Make sure the contractor is licensed, insured, and has good customer reviews. Ask for references to get a better sense of their work. It’s also a plus if they have years of experience or industry awards. Carefully review the contract and check that pricing is clear and transparent.

Sewer line cleaning keeps your entire plumbing system running smoothly. When the main line is clear, drains flow freely, toilets flush better, and unpleasant odors fade. Regular cleanings also ease strain on older pipes, helping prevent leaks and backups. Think of it as a plumbing tuneup that keeps everything connected and working efficiently while extending the life of your system.
