The sewer lateral is typically buried beneath your yard or driveway and connects your home’s plumbing system to a municipal sewer main or private septic tank. Because it runs underground and out of sight, clogs in this line often go unnoticed until serious symptoms appear.
Recognizing early signs of sewer line trouble can help prevent major plumbing emergencies:
Unpleasant odors may leave you wondering, “Why does my bathroom smell like sewage?” This is often a sign of a compromised or blocked sewer line that needs immediate professional attention.
Several factors can lead to underground sewer drain clogs:
Chemical products like Drano in toilets or kitchen drains may seem like a quick fix, but they can damage pipes and won’t resolve deep or structural blockages.
At Logan Services, we start with a targeted approach that includes a sewer camera inspection to locate blockages, root intrusion, or damage within the sewer line. Once we identify the issue, we apply the most effective method—often hydro jetting to clear out grease, roots, and deep obstructions using high-pressure water, or mechanical rodding for hard-to-reach clogs deep in the pipe. After clearing the line, we conduct a final inspection to confirm full drainage and ensure your system’s structural integrity. This process allows us to resolve tough issues like a clogged drain deep in the pipe, restoring proper flow and protecting your home.

Underground sewer clogs can result in yard flooding, basement sewage backups, and long-term structural damage to your foundation. Delayed cleaning may lead to total pipe failure, requiring excavation and costly replacement. Fast intervention prevents these outcomes and protects your property.
Pouring Drano in the toilet or trying to unclog a bathtub drain with home remedies rarely solves sewer issues. DIY fixes often target only surface-level symptoms and risk pipe damage or exposure to hazardous waste. Sewer lines are complex and best handled by trained professionals using diagnostic tools and safe, effective equipment.
Factor | DIY Methods | Professional Sewer Cleaning |
|---|---|---|
Tools | Store-bought augers or chemicals | Sewer camera, hydro jetting, root removal |
Effectiveness | Often ineffective for deep or outdoor clogs | Clears the entire line, including tree roots |
Safety | High risk of exposure to sewage, injury, or property damage | Safe, sanitary process using protective gear |
Best For | Not recommended for sewer line issues | Long-term, complete blockage removal |
Attempting to clear your sewer line on your own can be hazardous and rarely resolves the full issue. Sewer lines are complex, buried systems that require proper diagnostics and professional tools. Trusting a trained team like Logan Services ensures your sewer system is cleaned safely, completely, and without further risk to your home.
DIY methods may offer a short-term solution, but professional sewer cleaning ensures a safe, thorough result that protects your property.

Warning signs include gurgling sounds, slow-draining toilets, multiple backed-up fixtures, or a sewer smell in your home. If these symptoms appear together, it’s likely a main sewer blockage requiring professional attention.
A strong sewer odor in the bathroom typically signals a blocked or broken sewer line, allowing gases to enter the home. Professional sewer line inspection and cleaning can identify the problem and restore proper sealing and ventilation.
A clogged sewer line can cause sewage backups, structural damage, and exposure to harmful bacteria. Timely cleaning protects your home and family from major disruptions and health hazards.
Yes, tree root intrusion is a common cause of sewer line clogs through small cracks or joints. Once inside, they expand and trap debris, causing major clogs. Logan Services uses sewer cameras and hydro jetting to safely clear and manage root intrusion.
Yes. Our team evaluates your pipe material and condition before choosing a method. For older systems, we use pressure levels and tools that safely clean without damaging the structure.
No. Using Drano in toilets can damage the porcelain, corrode pipes, and worsen existing blockages. For deep or stubborn clogs, professional cleaning is the safest and most effective option.
A smelly sink drain may be caused by food buildup, grease, or a partial clog in the branch or main sewer line. Professional drain and sewer line cleaning removes the underlying blockage and eliminates recurring odors.
A slow-draining toilet may point to a partial sewer line clog or venting issue. If plunging doesn’t help, it’s best to schedule a professional inspection to prevent a complete backup.

“After terrible service with Sears, we called Logan Services, and I’m so glad we did. Our service man, Mike, did a wonderful job repairing our furnace. He knew exactly what to do, was very kind, and professional. I recommend this company to anyone who wants great service.“
“Logan Services was very professional and met all of my expectations. From their call center operator, Mary, who was extremely helpful, to the technicians who completed my installation of a new furnace and AC unit. All three technicians (Chuck, Austyn, and Iseah) were very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. If I am in need of an HVAC contractor, I will be calling Logan. Thank you!“
“I’d give them 6 stars if I could. The experience from start to finish was fantastic. We looked at 3 other providers to replace our 28-year-old HVAC system. Logan gave us the best price for equivalent options. Our salesman, Jeff, was professional, knowledgeable, and very personable. They were able to install it the next day. Our technician, Treneil, and his team were awesome. They were polite, skillful, and worked diligently until the new system was installed. The new system is awesome. I wish we had done this sooner. In my opinion, you cannot go wrong with Logan Services.“
“Our furnace went out, and we called Logan Services. They came out that day, inspected the furnace and AC, and gave us our estimates and options, and had a furnace and AC unit installed by the next afternoon. Our salesman was great, direct and honest, and our techs, Rick and Willie, were fantastic, very professional, very neat, very knowledgeable. I would HIGHLY recommend Logan Services to anybody who needs any sort of HVAC services. You’ll be more than happy with their work!“
“Fantastic experience from the beginning with the consultation with Jeff. He really worked with us and understood our situation. Then the actual service of replacing our HVAC unit went very smoothly. The crew (Kyle, Jarrett, and Ty) was meticulous, clean, helpful, and careful as they moved throughout the house. If you are stuck in the unfortunate place of needing to replace your HVAC, I would highly recommend giving Logan Services a shot!“
“This is my 2nd review of Logan Services, now for replacing both systems in my new condo. Victor, Ty, and Noah were amazing, courteous, and detailed from beginning to end. I’m a repeat customer and highly recommend!
Needed to replace a 40-year-old furnace, which was still operational. They were extremely knowledgeable about the system they were replacing and the amount of work that was needed for the upgrade. Derek was our salesman who did a great job, and I can’t say enough about Bobby and Clay, who got the job done within a day as promised. Of course, some slight modifications had to be made as they were working on the removal and installation, which they figured out and kept me informed every step of the way. We’re looking forward to Logan for our regular HVAC needs! Thank you!”
