Our Sewer Line Cleaning Services
Express Septic & Drain Cleaning offers comprehensive sewer line cleaning, repair, and replacement services.
Sewer drain cleaning & unclogging
We use expert techniques and professional tools to remove stubborn blockages after accurately diagnosing the problem using infrared technology, sewer camera inspections, and acoustic detection. Our experienced plumbers identify the source of clogs and sewage issues and fix them correctly the first time.
Hydro jetting services (High-pressure water jet cleaning)
We forcefully cut through and clear clogs from your plumbing system using high-pressure water or steam through the pipes. Hydro jetting can be more beneficial than traditional drain snaking because it cleans the pipe walls and gives you a clear, free-flowing sewage system. We recommend hydro jetting when there’s a stubborn clog, especially when it’s too far down the pipe for snaking to work.
Sewer camera inspections (Identify hidden issues)
A video camera inspection is recommended before sewer cleaning to find the exact location of the clog and what’s causing it. This way, we know if we’re dealing with a collapsed pipe, flushed items, or tree roots, which will help us decide how to clear the clog. An accurate diagnosis helps prevent recurring sewer issues, as we can advise you on how to move forward best.
Tree root removal from sewer pipes
Tree roots naturally grow toward water and nutrients found in sewer pipes. If a tree is planted too close to a sewer line, its roots will likely eventually break through the pipes, especially in joints or cracks. Over time, food particles, waste, hair, grease, and other debris will collect on the roots and clog the system. At Express, we offer specialized root-cutting and hydro-jetting solutions to break through the roots without damaging your pipes. We also install preventative solutions like root barriers and pipe liners.
Preventative sewer maintenance
Routine sewer line inspections and cleaning will keep your sewers running as designed. Between plumber visits, you can keep your sewer line clear by maintaining your garbage disposal, being mindful of what goes down your drains, managing tree roots, and avoiding flushing anything that doesn’t belong in the toilet.

Express offers fast sewer line assistance. Call us for emergency services, and we’ll be there ASAP.

How to minimize damage while waiting for a plumber
While waiting for your plumber to arrive for emergency cleaning, stop using all water sources immediately, and check the outside sewer cleanout caps for signs of a blockage so you can help direct them to the issue.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have my sewer line cleaned?
It depends on your home’s plumbing system. Older pipes need cleaning more often than new plumbing. We recommend cleaning your sewer line every 1-2 years to prevent buildup and clogs.
What happens if I don’t clean my sewer line regularly?
If you don’t keep your sewer lines clear, debris, grease, and sediment will build up until they clog. This can cause sewage backups, leaks, and pipe damage, leading to costly repairs.
