Georgia Drain Cleaning Pricing Guide
One of the first things Georgia homeowners want to know when a drain backs up is: 'How much is this going to cost?' The honest answer is that it depends on several factors — the type of drain, the severity of the blockage, the method required, and whether it's a standard service call or an emergency. Here's a complete breakdown of what Georgia homeowners typically pay for drain cleaning services in 2026.
Standard Drain Cleaning (Kitchen or Bathroom): $99–$179 This covers most residential clogs — grease in the kitchen drain, hair in the bathroom, minor main line partial blockages. Most jobs take 30–60 minutes. The variation in pricing reflects blockage severity and the reach required.
Main Sewer Line Cleaning: $150–$350 Main line cleaning involves larger equipment, longer reach, and more time. Expect 60–120 minutes for a full main line service. Camera inspection may be recommended to locate the blockage, and the cost varies based on whether root cutting or standard augering is needed.
Hydro Jetting: $250–$500 Hydro jetting takes longer (60–150 minutes), uses specialized high-pressure equipment, and requires more technician skill. The price variation reflects the length of pipe treated and the severity of what needs to be removed.
Video Camera Inspection: $100–$200 Camera inspection is often waived or reduced in cost when combined with a cleaning service. Standalone inspection for home purchase due diligence or problem diagnosis typically runs $100–$200.
Emergency After-Hours Service: Add $50–$100 Evening, overnight, weekend, and holiday service carries an after-hours surcharge. We always quote this transparently before dispatching — never a surprise on the final invoice.
Commercial Drain Cleaning: Call for quote Commercial pricing varies significantly based on the size of the drain system, frequency of service (one-time vs. maintenance contract), and the type of facility.
