Sewer drain service is the first call when the whole house is draining badly. A basement floor drain that backs up when the washer runs, a toilet that gurgles when the tub drains, or a sewer smell in the lowest level all point to the main line rather than an individual fixture. We clear the blockage to get you flowing again, then put a camera through the line to show you what caused it, because a clog is a symptom and the cause is what decides whether it comes back.
For a lot of Kansas City, KS homes, that cause is roots in an old clay lateral or scale in cast iron. For others it is wipes, grease, or debris collecting at a belly or offset. Sometimes it is a partial collapse. Whatever the camera shows, you get a straight explanation and a recommendation, whether that is a maintenance cleaning schedule, hydro jetting, or a repair. We also install cleanouts on homes that do not have one, which makes every future service faster and cheaper.
These are the symptoms that bring most sewer drain service calls, and what they usually mean.
Sewage at the floor drain or lowest fixture means the main is blocked. We clear it and camera the line to find out why.
When every drain is sluggish, the restriction is downstream of all of them, in the main line.
Air pulled through a trap while another fixture drains is a classic sign of a partial main-line blockage.
A sewer smell inside or in the yard can mean a dry trap, a failed vent, or a cracked line letting gas escape. The camera tells us which.
Older homes often lack an exterior cleanout. We install one so the line can be serviced without pulling a toilet or going through the roof.
| Service | Estimated Cost | Average |
|---|---|---|
| Main line cable cleaning | $200–$500 | $350 |
| Sewer camera inspection | $250–$550 | $400 |
| Exterior cleanout installation | $800–$2,500 | $1,500 |
Planning ranges only. Access, severity, time of day, and whether the line needs jetting or root cutting change the price. We quote before we start.
Every main-line cleaning includes an explanation of what caused it, with camera footage when the line needs a closer look.
We do main lines all day. That means the right cable heads, jetting equipment, and cameras on the truck, and technicians who know Kansas City pipe.
If the camera shows a healthy line that just had a clog, we tell you that and leave. Repairs are recommended only when the pipe needs them.

Free — no obligations
We use an existing cleanout, or the most practical alternative if there is none, and protect the work area.
The right cable head or jetting nozzle for the blockage restores flow.
We inspect the full run to the main so you know what caused the clog and whether the pipe has damage.
You see the video and get a plain recommendation: maintenance interval, jetting, or a specific repair.
Work area cleaned, cleanout capped, and a written record of what was found for your file.
