"I can't say enough good things! We had backup after taking showers. Devan was able to come out that same day -- had to do dig down to the pipe and was able to remove the root in just a couple of hours - even though it was after 5 p.m. We decided to permanently fix the problem and he came back two days later and replaced the pipe that had been compromised. Again very fast and professional. My highest recommendations to them!"

At Zoom, our technicians are extensively trained in diagnosing and resolving drain problems. Cleaning drains is all we do and each of our technicians cleans thousands every year, more than the average plumber will clean in a lifetime! Unlike many of our competitors who perform multiple services in addition to drain cleaning, our highly specialized and dedicated super service trucks carry all the equipment needed to solve your drain and sewer issues the first time.

"Great company, called about a backed up toilet. They were able to come out first thing the following morning. Jordan and Jeremy showed up in the freezing cold and cleared the clog on the drain line very quickly. They also took extra time to scope and jet the line and found a busted pipe and extensive roots in the lines as well. They got everything cleaned out very quickly and left me with a product to help keep the roots away till we can get the pipe fixed and possibly get a liner installed in the future. I would recommend Zoom drain as they were fast, professional and reasonably priced. Thank you for great service."

"Terry and his crew installed a French drain in my driveway and routed it to a rain garden equipped with a sump pump for heavy rain situations. They also routed my two existing downspouts to the same area, fully resolving the drainage issues I was having, ie: water getting into the garage every time it rained. He was hands-down the best contractor I’ve worked with. Great communication through the whole process. He was collaborative and knowledgeable and went above and beyond our expectations. He even laid topsoil and grass seed on our lawn where he drove the excavator. Terry is a consummate professional in every sense of the word and the rest of his crew were as well. A++"

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.
