Sewer Cleaning in Shoreview, MN

Sewer cleaning is about the line you never see: the one carrying everything from your Shoreview home or building out to the street. Minnesota freeze–thaw cycles, root intrusion and years of buildup can all take a toll on it. We clean it with cable augers or hydro jetting, depending on what’s inside, and quote the job by phone before we head out. Call (612) 545-8483.

Overview

Professional sewer cleaning

Over time, debris, grease and tree roots build up inside sewer pipes, leading to blockages and backups.

Professional sewer cleaning removes that buildup, restores proper flow and protects your property from costly plumbing problems.

Sewer Cleaning in Shoreview: FAQ

What’s the difference between sewer cleaning and drain cleaning?

Drain cleaning usually means a single fixture line, like a kitchen or bathroom drain. Sewer cleaning targets the main line that carries waste out of the building. Small drains start at $165; main line cleaning is $245 for up to 100 feet.

Can you clean my sewer line on a weekend in Shoreview?

Yes, we’re open 24/7, 365 days a year. Evening, weekend and holiday appointments may include an additional service fee, and we’ll let you know when we quote the job over the phone.

Do you charge a trip charge?

We quote you a price over the phone, and if you accept, we don’t charge for the trip to your home — even if the estimate changes before we start. A trip charge may apply only if the location is more than 15 miles from our office.

How much does main line cleaning cost?

Main line cleaning is $245 for up to 100 feet, including up to 1.5 hours of service. With a full camera inspection it’s $295 (Monday–Friday, 8 AM–4 PM). Hydro jetting is quoted by pipe size and how much buildup we find.

Does insurance cover a broken sewer pipe?

It depends on your coverage and the cause. Actual damage to the pipe is often covered; roots clogging an undamaged pipe usually isn’t.

Is a broken sewer line dangerous?

Yes — it can cause serious property damage and health hazards. We don’t perform those repairs, but we’ll refer you to a trusted specialist.
