Sewer line cleaning service for main sewer runs that need direct cleaning - one visit, focused on restoring flow in the primary line.
What you are seeing
The sewer line is clogged, backing up, or running slow across the house. You already know the problem is in the main sewer run - not a single sink, not a branch line, not a mystery. You need the sewer line cleaned, and you need it done in one visit.
This is not the page for diagnosing what might be wrong. This is the page for getting the sewer line opened, cleaned, and verified - with camera footage confirming the result before the truck leaves.
When this service fits
Sewer line cleaning service fits when you already know the main sewer run is the problem and you want it handled directly. The visit is scoped for one outcome: restore full flow through the primary sewer line, document the pipe condition on camera, and confirm whether anything else needs attention or whether the cleaning solved it.
No multi-visit diagnostic sequence. No waiting for a second appointment. The cleaning, the camera, and the recommendation happen in a single trip.
What you walk away with
After the visit, the sewer line is clean and running. The camera has documented the pipe condition from the cleanout through the run. You know what was in the line, what the pipe looks like without it, and whether the cleaning was the complete fix or whether the footage shows something that needs follow-up.
One visit. Sewer line cleaned. Pipe condition on camera. Clear answer on what comes next - including the possibility that the answer is nothing.
Problem
Some sewer problems need investigation. Some need a maintenance program. Some need a repair evaluation. And some just need the sewer line cleaned - now, in one visit, by a crew that shows up with the equipment to handle it and the camera to verify the result. If you are past the point of diagnosing and ready to get the sewer line serviced, this is the direct path.
The visitors who land on this page typically fall into one of three situations. The sewer line is actively clogged and needs to be opened - toilets are not flushing, the basement drain is backing up, or the cleanout is overflowing. Or the sewer line has been gradually slowing and needs a full cleaning before the restriction becomes a backup - the warning signs are there and the owner wants to handle it before it becomes an emergency. Or the line was cleaned before, it is due again, and the owner wants to rebook the same scope without starting from scratch on a new diagnostic conversation. In all three cases, the need is the same: clean the sewer line, camera the result, explain what comes next. One visit.
This is the most direct sewer cleaning path on the site. One visit, one scope, one outcome: the sewer line is clean and the pipe condition is documented.
Solution
The visit is scoped for one job: clean the main sewer run and verify the result on camera. The technician accesses the line through the cleanout, assesses the buildup type, selects the cleaning method, cleans the full affected run, and cameras the result - all in a single trip. There is no preliminary diagnostic visit. There is no scheduling a second appointment for the camera. Everything needed to clean the sewer line and document its condition happens in the same visit.
The cleaning method is determined by what the line contains. Soft blockages - paper, waste, light sludge - may respond to cabling. Wall-bonded buildup - hardened grease, root mass, mineral scale, compacted sediment - requires jetting at wall-contact pressure to strip the material from the pipe interior. The technician makes that determination on site based on what the cleanout reveals and what the line produces during the initial clearing. Both methods are available on the truck. The right one is selected for the job, not predetermined before arrival.
The camera pass after cleaning is what makes this a verified service instead of a blind clearing. The footage shows the pipe walls clean, the joint conditions, any root entry points that were hidden under the buildup, grade issues, and structural defects. If the pipe is healthy and the cleaning was the complete fix, you know. If the footage shows something that needs follow-up - a cracked section, a belly, heavy root damage at a joint - you know that too, with footage, before the truck leaves. Either way, the visit produces a definitive result.

Leave a Review!Amazing experience! They are knowledgeable, kind, courteous and very thorough. Our clogged kitchen pipe was a bit of a challenge but they kept going and did everything they could to get it unclogged and they did it! They were very upfront with what caused the clog, gave us video recording of our pipes so we can see exactly what was done, double checked to make sure the pipes were clean and free of clogs and gave us steps on how to maintain the pipes moving forward. Highly recommend!!
I had an Emergency pipe back up AJ and Jake came snaked and got it all jetted out and cleaned up quick and for a really fair price! Anyone in need I would highly recommend
Very professional, quick and efficient work definitely would recommend
Highly recommend, very quick and easy to work with crew, drain cleaned my main sewer line professionally and well done.
This company is Awesome!!! Highly recommend that you call them for your drain cleaning and power washing needs! A++ in service, cost, and quality of work. Alex and Jacob completed drain work, patio cleaning, and filled in cracks in cement. The patio looks brand new! Thank you Alex and Jacob!!!
Alex was very good to work with. They were professional and punctual, working around my schedule. They were able to show me exactly before and after, even showing footage inside my pipes, which I have never seen before. I would recommend them.
Why Mountain West
Camera rated to 200 feet
Verifies the cleaning result across the full sewer run - up to 200 feet of pipe with live footage review - so you see the clean pipe walls, joint conditions, and any findings before the visit ends.
Jetting and camera on every call
Both are on the truck for every sewer line cleaning service visit. If the buildup requires jetting, it is available immediately - no rescheduling because the first method was not enough. If the camera reveals something after cleaning, you find out during the visit - not on a callback.
3,850 PSI jetting capability
When the sewer line contains wall-bonded grease, root mass, scale, or compacted sludge, the line is cleaned at 3,850 PSI and 8 GPM across pipes 2 to 12 inches in diameter with 300 feet of reach. The material is stripped from the pipe walls, not pushed through the center.
20+ years combined field experience
Two decades of one-visit sewer line cleanings across Northern Utah - showing up with the right equipment, matching the method to the buildup, and finishing the job with camera-verified results before leaving the property.
Licensed and insured
Licensed for sewer, drain, and drainage system work - the classification that covers the sewer line cleaning scope and the camera verification that follows.
One visit. Arrive, clean the sewer line, camera the result, explain the findings. Everything happens in a single trip.
You finish the visit with a clean sewer line, camera footage verifying the result, and a definitive answer: the cleaning solved it, or the pipe has a specific condition the footage documented that needs the next step. No ambiguity, no waiting for a second visit to find out.
If the sewer line cleaning visit reveals conditions that call for a different scope - an ongoing maintenance program, a combined visit that addresses branch drains alongside the sewer line, or a camera-documented repair evaluation - these services cover what comes next.
Evidence
Next Service RouteSewer Backup PreventionWhen the cleaning resolves the current problem but the buildup rate suggests a scheduled maintenance program would prevent the next failure - recurring jetting with camera documentation at each visit to track the pipe over time.
Next Service RouteSewer And Drain CleaningWhen the sewer line cleaning reveals that branch drains are also restricted - symptoms persist on the fixture side after the main run is clean, and both systems need to be addressed together.
Next Service RouteSewer Camera InspectionWhen the post-cleaning camera footage reveals structural damage - cracks, root intrusion at joints, offset connections, or a belly - that cleaning alone cannot fix, and the next decision is whether to repair, replace, or monitor the line.Scope and timing

A sewer line cleaning service includes one-visit cleaning of the main sewer run - accessing the line through the cleanout, cleaning the pipe using the method matched to the buildup type, and camera-verifying the result before leaving the property. The footage confirms the pipe condition after cleaning and determines whether any follow-up is needed or whether the cleaning was the complete solution.
Property owners with an actively clogged sewer line, a sewer line that has been slowing toward a backup, or a sewer line that was cleaned previously and is due again. The common factor is that the problem is already identified as being in the main sewer run and the owner wants it cleaned in one direct visit - not diagnosed, not investigated, just serviced and verified.
The technician accesses the sewer line through the cleanout, assesses the buildup type, and cleans the line using cable or jetting depending on what the pipe contains. After cleaning, a camera runs the full section to verify the pipe is clear and to document the wall condition, joints, and any findings. The result and recommendation are delivered on site before the visit ends.
Know whether the line is actively clogged or gradually slowing - that determines scheduling priority. If the line has been cleaned before, know how long the results lasted and what method was used. Have the cleanout location ready if possible. If the sewer line has been cabled before and the problem returned quickly, mention that - it helps determine whether jetting is the better method for this visit.
