FAQs
What are the most common signs that my main sewer line is clogged?
Typical warning signs include multiple drains backing up at once (toilets, tubs, or floor drains), gurgling sounds coming from fixtures after you flush, water pooling around basement floor drains, and foul sewer odors inside or outside your home. If you notice any of these in your Oneida property, call us promptly—catching a clog early prevents costly damage.
How quickly can you respond to a main line emergency in Oneida?
Our technicians are on-call 24/7, 365 days a year. Because we’re locally based in Oneida, we can usually arrive within 60–90 minutes for true emergencies such as active sewage backups or basement flooding. For non-emergency service, we offer same-day or next-day scheduling at your convenience.
What methods do you use to clear and repair a main sewer line?
We start with a camera inspection to pinpoint the blockage or damage. Depending on what we find, we may use high-pressure hydro-jetting to remove grease and debris, mechanical augers for tougher roots, or trenchless pipe lining to repair cracks without digging up your yard. We always explain the options and costs before we begin any work.
Will my yard or driveway need to be dug up?
Not necessarily. About 70% of the main line jobs we handle in Oneida can be solved with trenchless technologies such as pipe lining or pipe bursting, which require only small access points. If excavation is unavoidable, we keep the trench as small as possible and restore landscaping or hardscape to its original condition once repairs are complete.
How much does main line repair or replacement cost?
Costs vary based on pipe length, depth, material, and the repair method. Minor clogs that require hydro-jetting may run a few hundred dollars, while full replacements can range from $3,000 to $8,000 or more. We provide upfront, itemized estimates after our camera inspection and offer financing options to spread payments over time.
How can I prevent future main line problems?
Have your line professionally inspected every 1-2 years, especially if your home is older than 30 years or you have mature trees near the sewer path. Avoid flushing wipes, grease, feminine products, or large food scraps. Install a backwater valve to stop municipal surges and consider periodic preventive hydro-jetting to keep the pipe interior clear.
