The Cost to Snake The Main Drain? 

As you can undoubtedly assume, there is a wide range in the price of plumbing repairs, such as having your drain snaked or replaced.

So, how much is it to snake the main drain? Having Complete Transparency. 

 

There are several factors, one being accessibility. Is there a clean-out? And another difficulty is if a drain is clogged, so it is tough to unclog or reach. Going from the roof vent to unclog the main. Or if it has roots etc.  So it depends on these and other factors.

Main Drains

If you’re unfortunate enough to have a clog in the main sewer line, you’ll probably have to pay between $350 and $450+ to unclog the main. The price depends on several variables. Is there clean-out access? Are there roots? Does the snaking have to be done from the roof?

 

The cost of this unclogging service depends on several factors, including how simple it is to access your sewer system, how deep the obstruction is located, and how bad it is.

 

If the blockage is severe and requires a partial sewer line replacement, you may have to pay anything from $3,000 + for this procedure.

Kitchen & Bathroom Sink Drains

For a bathroom sink or kitchen sink to be snaked, you should be prepared to spend between $125 and $150. Here again, price depends on several variables. Simple snaking jobs can cost as little as $125 with a clean-out access point.

 

And the tub drains will cost a little less than the kitchen sinks. The average cost of having a shower drain snaked is between $125 and $150.

Laundry Drains 

The average cost of a laundry drain is about $125 with a clean-out. Otherwise, a plumber has two choices well, basically if the stoppage is further down than the p-trap to snake the drain either go up on the rooftop and snake the line or if possible, take part the p-trap. And this is a different cost. Around $200 To go up on the rooftop and snake the drain from the vent.

Toilets

If the toilet has an obstruction (a toy etc.) can likely be more challenging to clear, and the job is less pleasant, I would say, for most plumbers.


At the same time, severe clogs might cost as much as $300+ plus to unclog. For instance, the toilet needs to be removed to unclog the toilet. For example, if something fails down the toilet drain.

Although the typical cost for unclogging a toilet drain is about $100. If only a toilet auger is needed.
