Sewer and drain work for Northern Virginia homes
Every sewer and drain job we do, on one page. Drain cleaning from $350, hydro jetting from $950, sewer line repair from $1,500, full replacement $11,000 to $42,000. Most clogs are cleared the same day you call. Call (703) 214-2551. A real person answers 24/7, never voicemail.
How much does a sewer camera inspection cost?
A standalone sewer camera inspection runs $350 to $550. It's complimentary with most sewer snaking, pending equipment availability and an accessible cleanout. One honest caveat: we can't camera a line that's backed up with water or gunk. There has to be some flow to see the line, so on a full backup we clear first, then camera.
Through September 30, 2026, a standalone camera inspection is $99. If you've been quoted a big sewer repair anywhere, that's the cheapest second opinion you'll ever buy!
Snaking or hydro jetting: which one do you need?
Snaking punches through the clog and gets you draining again today. It's the right call for one-off blockages. Hydro jetting scrubs the pipe wall itself, so grease and root regrowth take years to come back instead of months. If the same line has been snaked twice in a year, jetting is usually cheaper over time. We do both, so we don't need to steer you either way.
How do you price this work?
These are our actual starting prices for the DC metro, July 2026. Not national averages, not teaser rates. Virginia daytime diagnostic is $75, waived with repair. DC and Maryland daytime $150. After-hours $150 VA, $250 DC and MD. Free neighborhood estimates. Free second opinions with a written competitor quote. You approve a flat price before we start, and it includes the permit when one's required.
One aside for Alexandria homeowners with basements: the city currently covers 50% of a backflow preventer installation, up to $2,000, when the work is done by a licensed plumber with a permit. Details at alexandriava.gov. Happy to walk you through it.
