Main Line Cleaning
Clear the main sewer line from the cleanout when every drain in the house backs up at once.
Main Line Cleaning, explained plainly.
The main sewer line carries everything from the house to the city connection. When it blocks, every drain in the home backs up at once and the lowest fixture, usually a tub or floor drain, overflows first. We access the line through the exterior cleanout and clear the full run to the street.

Clearing the main restores flow immediately; the camera then shows whether roots or a break caused the backup.
We can install a two-way cleanout so future maintenance is faster, cleaner and cheaper.

What if I don't have a cleanout?+
We can pull a toilet or go through a roof vent, and we can install a proper cleanout so future service is faster and cheaper.
Will it happen again?+
If roots or a break are present, yes. The camera tells us whether cleaning is enough or the line needs repair.
