Answers to Common Questions
View All FAQsWhat are the common causes of a sewer line backup?
Common causes of a sewer line backup include tree root intrusion, heavy sludge or grease buildup, and damaged or collapsed pipe sections. Tree roots are a frequent culprit our technicians identify during video camera inspections because they grow toward moisture and invade small pipe openings. Sludge, grime, and rust scale can also narrow the pipe until normal flow stops, while broken or collapsed areas block the line entirely. In practice, we confirm the cause with a high-definition camera, then clear the line with hydro-jetting or rooter equipment, or restore the pipe with trenchless relining; if the pipe has failed, excavation and replacement may be required. Our crews regularly handle these scenarios for homeowners in Snohomish and nearby communities using the same diagnostic-first approach. If sewage is backing up, stop using water and schedule a camera inspection before further damage occurs. <br/> Updated: 2026-04-07 <br/> Need help in Snohomish, WA?

A sewer line cleanout is a capped access point to your main sewer pipe. It’s important because it allows fast camera inspections, hydro-jetting, and clog removal without major digging. Apollo Plumbing uses cleanouts to run high-definition video inspections and perform hydro-jet cleaning, and we can install outside cleanouts when needed. We offer 24/7 sewer services across Seattle and nearby cities.
Quick checks:
- Frequent main-line clogs or slow drains.
- No visible cleanout cap outdoors.
- Older piping that’s hard to access.

A sewer line inspection is a camera-based check of your drain line that reveals the pipe’s condition and pinpoints problem areas. Technicians feed a high-definition video camera through the line to identify blockages, breaks, roots, or corrosion and determine what needs cleaning, repair, or replacement next. We also confirm the pipe material (cast iron, PVC, clay, or Orangeburg) so the fix matches the line, and emergency visits are available 24/7 if sewage is backing up. We perform these inspections around Arlington homes regularly as part of targeted, minimally disruptive sewer work.
What typically happens during the visit:
- Capture live video and document findings to locate issues precisely
- Verify pipe material to guide the right solution
- If visibility is poor, clear obstructions with rooter tools or hydro-jetting
- Present options: cleaning, trenchless relining (spray-on or CIPP), or excavation if the pipe has collapsed
If you notice repeated slow drains or sewage backups, schedule a video inspection before any digging begins. <br/> Updated: 2026-04-30 <br/> Need help in Arlington, WA? Call (425) 387-1507 or book online. “Sewer fixed and working great!” — Douglas R.

The cost to unclog a main sewer line is confirmed after a technician diagnoses the blockage on site. Pricing depends on access, blockage type (roots, grease, debris), and method used (rooter vs. hydro‑jetting). We start with a camera inspection to pinpoint the issue, then clear the line and advise on repairs if needed. Savings are available: $43 off sewer and drain cleaning, free camera inspection for A‑List members (regular price $489), $200 off sewer repair with excavation, and $150 off outside clean‑out installation.

Trenchless sewer line replacement cost is not a flat rate; Apollo Plumbing confirms pricing only after a camera inspection and on-site evaluation. The biggest price drivers are how many feet of pipe need rehabilitation and which trenchless method fits best (spray-on coating or CIPP lining). Trenchless is designed to be quicker, cleaner, and more affordable than digging when conditions allow, and our crews regularly complete these projects around Bothell homes with minimal property disruption. For diagnostics, a camera inspection is complimentary for Apollo A-List members (regular price $489).
What most affects your quote:
- Total pipe length involved
- Depth and access (under landscaping, driveway, or slab)
- Pipe material and current damage (roots, cracks, collapse)
- Scope (spot repair vs full line) and any required surface restoration
Schedule a video camera inspection to get a precise project scope before you decide on repair or replacement. <br/> Updated: 2026-03-10 <br/> Need help in Bothell, WA? Call (425) 387-1507 or book online. "Sewer fixed and working great!" — Douglas R.
