Homes with large trees near the sewer line should have the main line inspected and cleared annually to prevent root buildup from causing backups.
Drain cleaning in Evanston typically costs $150 to $350 for standard drain snaking and $300 to $600 for hydro-jetting depending on the line size and length. Main sewer line cleaning costs more than individual fixture drains. Phoenician Plumbing provides transparent pricing before starting any drain cleaning work in Evanston.
Drain snaking uses a rotating cable to break through or pull out blockages. It is effective for hair clogs and localized obstructions but leaves residue on pipe walls. Hydro-jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the full pipe interior, removing grease, scale, and root intrusion completely. For main sewer lines and recurring clogs, hydro-jetting provides more thorough and longer-lasting results.
Yes. Tree roots are one of the most common causes of sewer line problems in Evanston neighborhoods with mature trees. Roots enter through small cracks or joints in older sewer lines and grow inside the pipe, eventually causing recurring blockages, complete blockages, or pipe collapse. Annual hydro-jetting and a root treatment can control root growth and extend line life.

"Emergency call at 11pm for a burst pipe in the laundry room. They arrived in about 45 minutes, shut off the water, fixed the pipe, and had everything cleaned up before 2am. Incredibly responsive."
"Had an under-slab water line burst. They came out that day, capped off the bad line and restored water to the rest of the house, then rerouted the water line through the attic with minimal drywall damage. Very clean, respectful, knowledgeable, and professional. Only plumber I will ever call."
"My water heater started leaking at 7am and by 2pm I had a new water heater installed. Thank you so much — incredibly fast and professional service!"
