“Our entire sewer pipe to the house was backed up due to extensive root infiltration in the pipe which was 12-15 feet underground…. saved us major money with finding a solution that avoided any digging into our yard to get to the pipes.”

“Best plumbers in Atl! They worked so hard to find the problem, worked all night long, digging up tree roots and even cleaned up! Completely trust Alex and his team. They are hard workers who are honest and they explain everything.”
Nikki V. | 5-Star Google Review
“Last week our furnace stopped working in the 13 degree weather, a drain pipe from our top floor developed a sudden leak, and our septic tank backed up into our basement.
We were frazzled to say the least. Alex and his team were calm, focused, and determined to find our drain leak issue and fix it. Alex’s experience and high degree of skill led to him finding the source of the issue quickly. The leak was resolved soon after that. RX plumbing was quick and effective as well as very knowledgeable. We greatly appreciate their efforts in resolving our issue so quickly and at a fair price.
We have already started to refer them to our friends and family. Alex and RX plumbing are now our plumbers for all and anything needed in our plumbing!”

FAQs for Our Water Heater Experts
-
Clearing a main sewer line clog yourself is usually difficult and often ineffective. Most household drain cleaners only work on small fixture clogs and can damage pipes if overused.
Small homeowner drain snakes also rarely reach far enough into the main sewer line.
Professional plumbers use specialized equipment such as:
Commercial drain augers
Hydro jetting systems
Root-cutting tools
These tools can fully clear blockages and restore proper drainage.
-
A main sewer line clog usually affects multiple plumbing fixtures at the same time.
Common warning signs include:
Water backing up into showers or tubs when toilets are flushed
Multiple slow drains throughout the house
Gurgling sounds coming from toilets or drains
Sewage odors inside or outside the home
If several drains are affected at once, the blockage is likely in the main sewer line rather than a single fixture.
-
Drain clearing removes a temporary blockage inside a pipe, such as grease buildup, hair, or flushed wipes.
Sewer repair is required when the pipe itself is damaged or deteriorated.
Common causes of sewer line damage include:
Tree root intrusion
Pipe corrosion
Cracked or collapsed pipes
Ground shifting or soil movement
In many North Atlanta neighborhoods, tree roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line damage.
-
Hydro jetting is a professional drain cleaning method that uses high-pressure water to remove grease, sludge, scale buildup, and tree roots from inside pipes.
When performed by a licensed plumber after inspecting the pipe condition, hydro jetting is both safe and highly effective.
A camera inspection is typically performed first to ensure the pipes are strong enough to handle the water pressure.
-
The cost of sewer line cleaning varies depending on the severity of the blockage and how accessible the sewer line is.
Factors that affect pricing include:
Depth of the sewer line
Type of blockage
Pipe condition
Equipment required (snaking, hydro jetting, etc.)
After performing a sewer camera inspection, a plumber can provide clear pricing before any work begins.
-
The time required for sewer line repair depends on the type of problem and the repair method.
Typical timelines include:
Basic sewer line cleaning: often completed within a few hours
Minor repairs: usually completed in one day
Major sewer line replacements: may take longer depending on pipe depth and repair method
A plumber can provide a more accurate timeline after inspecting the sewer line.
-
Yes. Recurring drain clogs often indicate a larger issue in the main sewer line rather than a simple fixture blockage.
Possible causes include:
Tree roots inside the sewer pipe
Grease or debris buildup
Pipe misalignment or damage
If recurring clogs are ignored, they can eventually cause a complete sewer line blockage or backup, which may lead to property damage and costly repairs.
-
Yes. Rx Plumbing & Drain provides fast emergency sewer and drain services throughout Cumming, Sugar Hill, Johns Creek, Alpharetta, Milton, Roswell, and surrounding North Atlanta communities.
In many cases, our plumbers can respond within a few hours to diagnose and resolve the issue.
-
Most sewer line clogs are caused by:
Tree roots growing into pipes
Grease and food buildup
Flushed wipes or paper products
Pipe corrosion or collapse
Foreign objects flushed down toilets
Regular sewer inspections and professional drain cleaning can help prevent serious blockages.
