Mr. Rooter works 7 days a week, including Sunday's. There is no extra charges for weekend and night time service. All the prices are the same no matter what time we come out. Mr. Rooter Plumbing is a client focused company serving all of Suffolk and Nassau County. We're dedicated to providing top quality craftsmanship, customer service and professionalism on every project. Call today to see what expertise can do for the overall value of your project. We do charge a dispatch fee of $64 for most visits but we do waive that fee when you go ahead with the service.

"They showed up to replace a shut off waste valve to my outside faucet. I supplied the valve. At first they gave me a quote that I thought was extremely high. I left to decide and came back and said forget it, Iâ m not going to do it. Then they came back and said ok, Iâ ll drop the price by $100 if you do it. This was still a high price, but being that they were here and would do it right away (rather than having to wait for a more reasonable plumber) I said ok."

Sewer main clearings FAQs

Plan on hiring a plumbing pro every 18 to 22 months to keep buildup from turning into a full‑blown blockage. Mark a reminder on your calendar, even if everything seems to be flowing fine. Between visits, watch for early red flags—gurgling drains, slow water, or sewer odors—and call a plumber sooner if you notice them.

Most cleanouts wrap up in about two hours, but complexity drives the clock. A simple clog can be gone in under 60 minutes, while a stubborn blockage, especially one that needs repairs, can stretch to four or five hours. Major damage may push the job into a multi‑day project. Your plumber can give you an accurate time estimate after they’ve assessed your situation.

You can’t prevent every clog, as they naturally occur over time, but you can drastically reduce their frequency by following common-sense steps. Toss solids in the trash or disposal, and keep only water, approved liquids, and toilet paper down the pipes. Never flush problem items like dental floss, paper towels, cat litter, or “flushable” wipes. Finally, conduct regular inspections and perform routine maintenance and cleaning.

Start by confirming the company is licensed, insured, and certified. Next, dig into reviews and ask for references to be sure their work lives up to the hype. In addition, a company with several years of experience and recognized industry awards demonstrates reliability and quality. These factors altogether form the foundation for making an informed decision when hiring a sewer line professional.

Sewer line cleaning improves the overall performance of your home’s plumbing system by ensuring smooth operation throughout all connected pipes. Maintaining a clean main sewer line prevents backups and supports the efficient flow of water across your entire plumbing network. Regular maintenance not only minimizes the risk of unexpected repairs but also prolongs the life of your pipes, while seasonal care, such as winterizing, further safeguards your system’s performance.
