100 Years of Drain and Sewer Work in the Twin Cities

We handle kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs, showers, toilets, and basement floor drains. We also fix main sewer lines that block from tree roots, grease, hair, food waste, soap scum, paper towels, or foreign objects. Our plumbers bring the right equipment to each job.

Committed to your comfort for every drain and sewer cleaning

Our team works across the Twin Cities week after week. We clear drains in houses, small businesses, and older homes with long main lines. We check for unpleasant odors, slow drains, active backup signs, or any blockage that can lead to costly repairs. We look at the drain, the pipe, the line, and the sewer connection. We find out if the problem is in one drain or deeper in the main sewer lines that run under the basement or street. Once we know the issue, we explain the solution and the price before we start.

| Pricing information

How much does a drain clearing cost in Minneapolis?

From emergency repairs to new installations, our certified technicians provide comprehensive water heater services with transparent, upfront pricing.

What factors does MSP consider when determining price?

Clog location

A clogged drain in a sink or tub is simple to reach. If water backs up in more than one spot, the main line or sewer line is likely the issue and takes more work.

Clog difficulty

Hair, grease, food waste, debris, paper towels, and tree roots all create different blockages. Some clear fast. Others need cable tools, hydro jetting services, or sewer line access.

The plumber you hire

More experienced technicians may charge more. They also fix the clog the right way the first time. This lowers the chance of another repair or a main line problem later.

Our 5-star drain cleaning process

We confirm the appointment request

Setting up a drain cleaning visit with MSP is fast and simple. A clogged drain, sewer line issue, or active backup can be scheduled by phone or through the online form. Once the request is received, the appointment date is confirmed and a reminder call is sent on the day of the visit for clear timing and support.

We send a drain specialist to the home

A licensed drain specialist arrives with the right equipment for the job, including cameras, cable tools, and rooter tools. The plumber checks the clogged drain, slow drain, or backed up floor drains and asks to see the problem line. Shoe covers are worn inside the house to protect floors, sinks, cabinets, and tubs while the drain and pipes are inspected.

We diagnose the issue and provide upfront pricing

The diagnostic can include a camera inspection of the sewer line, main line, or secondary line to check for tree roots, grease, debris, food waste, foreign objects, hair, or soap scum. The technician may remove the P trap, slip joint, or drain kit to see the blockage. Some clogs clear fast. Other blockages need a rooter tool, cable machine, or hydro jetting services for deeper line cleaning. A fixed price is shared before any work starts so there is clear cost and no surprise repairs.

We clean and clear the drain or sewer line

The drain is cleared with cable work, rooter tools, or hydro jetting services based on what is found inside the pipes. The line is cleaned until water runs without delay or backup. The technician tests sinks, tubs, toilets, and floor drains to confirm the flow. The work area is cleaned before leaving the house, and the drain, sewer line, or main line is left in proper working order to prevent drain backups or costly repairs later.

Customer Testimonials

★★★★★Google review

Bo did a plumbing check at my home today. He was very professional, answered questions, drained water heater, and cleaned debris from the faucet aerators. Left estimates for replacing lower toilets with higher ADA approved toilets, and replacing the plastic water turnoffs with regular turn handles to shut off the water. Very helpful.

Donovan is a good and friendly serviceman. He is patience when we communicated by pen and pad note. He got the things explained and showed me the video in my kitchen drain pipe.

I had my annual water heater tune up done today. Bo did a very through service. He found a small part that needed to be replaced. I am always impressed with the service I receive from MSP.
