• How quickly should I expect drain cleaning service for a clog?

Our service window is typically between 1-4 hours depending upon the volume of calls at the moment. We will update you with the status of the technician during the whole process.

• Do you clean up after you're done, or is it up to the property owner?

  Our plumbing specialists always clean up after we’re done fixing the issue. Cleaning up is part of our service and we take pride in your home as if it were our home.

• How is residential and commercial sewer repair different?

  Residential sewer lines are usually easier to fix than commercial sewer systems. This is because homes have smaller pipes than most commercial properties. Sometimes accessing the pipes can be a challenge on its own though. This is a common problem at homes with small lots, landscaping, or have patios covering the sewer line. Simply Sewers knows that each sewer repair is different, that’s why we have the skills to diagnose the problem and get the job done right.

• How many years does a sewer line last?

  The lifespan of your average sewer line is dependent on its build, its materials, and the workmanship when it was installed. Typically, the average sewer line is supposed to last roughly a lifetime-about 50 to 100 years.

• Is it my city's responsibility to replace my sewer line?

  It is the homeowner’s responsibility to replace the sewer line of their home. As the city sewer line only taps into your home’s sewage system, in the situation your home’s sewer line extends into the street, it is still your responsibility to repair it as well as repave any sections of street that must be teared up to replace/fix the sewer line. As everyone has different circumstances, be sure to check with your city’s specific ordinances before hiring a company.

• How often does my sewer need to be cleaned out?

  We recommend that you perform annual maintenance on your sewage system, including a professional sewer cleanout. The service keeps the pipes free of any barriers, leaks and other problems that may cause costly problems later. If your sewer has not been professionally cleaned, you may noticed some signs that your sewer needs professional cleaning.
