The price, what it includes and the things that could move it.
What is included
- Confirm which drain is clogged and where the cleanout is
- Clear the blockage and run water to prove it flows
- Tell you plainly if the cause looks deeper, such as a root-filled or damaged line
What can change the price
- Whether there is an accessible cleanout. Without one, we explain the options and price the actual job first.
- How many drains are involved. The posted price is for a single drain.
- Whether the clog is deeper in the line. If a camera look or a longer run is needed, that is quoted and confirmed before we do it.
