"Oscar was great. I was just looking to make an appointment for later in the week, but he said he was was able to show up that night, and he did, about 7:30, and fixed the problem. He knew what he was talking about and I'd have no problem hiring him again."

"I had roots in the drain pipe along with a crack in the pipe under my deck. First visit they cleared the pipe of roots and the second visit installed a sleeve through the pipe to prevent future problems. Both visits were very professional and when they were done they provided a camera view. This allowed me to see their finish product. "

"Wind River Exteriors did a fabulous job remodeling our garage. They called me and came out to give us an estimate very quickly when no other contractor in the area would even consider the job, which is OK because I rather give my hard earned money to someone that actually cares. The job itself went smooth with no major hiccups or problems. They listened to us and gave us exactly what we wanted. They arrived to work on time, and on the days they said they were going to be here. They worked in extreme heat, and even on weekends to get our job done for us in time. They cleaned up the construction debris and did not leave any messes. Geroge, Justin, Eugene and the entire crew were a pleasure to work with. Would HIGHLY recommend Wind River for your next project!"

"The work was good, and clean-up was fine. Bad (rainy) weather hampered the start of the project - not their fault. The crew was 2 brothers that always started later in the morning (because "they were coming from up by St. Cloud down to Mpls"). Overall, the finished project is great. Just small nits on communication."

"We couldn't run the kitchen sink or do laundry without flooding the basement floor. Adam fixed the clog within 30 min. Been in my 1947 home for almost 12 years struggling with drain issues and tried to handle on our own. Every year renting a machine from home Depot, lugging it to the basement and just clearing a bit of the drain. Other issues using snakes and cutting into pipes. Made it work. We had a major issue 4 years ago and had to look for help. American Sewer was out the same day and took care of business on the main drain. When other companies would not, saying "The pipe collapsed And it's a $7k job". Adam had been out 2 other times. Kitchen sink. Bathtub drain no issues in 2 years! Today with floor drain. This Company is really worth it. Changed my life finding them. Thank you."

FAQs for sewer main clearing projects in Cottage Grove, MN

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.
