Sebastian Sewer FAQ

If just one sink, tub or toilet is slow, the clog is usually in that fixture's drain. If several fixtures back up at once, the toilet gurgles when you run water, water comes up in the tub when you flush, or you smell sewage, the problem is more likely in the main line and needs attention soon.

Stop running water, stop flushing, and stop the washing machine and dishwasher. If water is coming up in a tub or shower, keep people and pets away from it. Then call us. We're open Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 6 PM; emergency service may be available after hours, so call and ask.

Both. We clear main-line blockages — including with a cable machine and, when the pipe can handle it, hydro jetting — and we repair lines when the pipe itself is damaged. Cleaning a broken pipe will not hold.

After the line has been cleared and is flowing, a camera run down it shows what caused the clog, such as roots, a belly where waste settles, broken pipe or heavy buildup, and where it is. A camera can't see through a backed-up line, so the blockage is always cleared first.

No. For a minimal additional charge, we offer video camera inspection with obstruction locating. We do camera inspections only when you ask for one. If the inspection leads to a repair you schedule with us within 30 days, we credit the inspection cost toward the repair. Call to ask about your job.

Sometimes. If the clog is in the pipes inside the house or between the house and the tank, we can often clear it. If the tank is full or the drain field is failing, you'll need a septic company. Tell us you're on septic when you call.

Florida's year-round growing season pushes roots toward any small crack or loose joint. Many older Sebastian and Vero Beach homes still have clay or cast-iron lines that roughen and catch debris. Grease and wipes add to it. A line that clogs again and again should be inspected once it's been opened, not just recleared.

Every job is different. A clearing is not the same job as a repair, and a repair depends on how much of the line is damaged and what's above it. Call us to talk through your job and pricing. Our trip charge is credited toward your repair when you go ahead with the work.
