"So far so good. Snaking of kitchen sink with very old pipes. Hopefully snake did not poke pipes. Only time will tell. Keeping fingers crossed. They did a good job explaining and triple checked for leaks before they left. Of course they tried to upsell and gave us a metal trap they did not quote us upfront for. We would have chosen it over plastic, but price difference would need to be cleared upfront. That's the only negative. Otherwise, thus far we are very happy with the result. Thank you for coming on such short notice and on time! Super appreciated. 4.5-5 stars."

"The plumber tried to reconnect the kitchen faucet plumbing and left my home, but the plumbing had a leak. I called the plumber and told him that I saw a leak in the kitchen faucet piping. He came out to inspect the plumbing. He saw the small leak and replaced the piping. "

FAQs for sewer main clearing projects in San Mateo, CA

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.
