How much does drain cleaning cost in Birmingham, AL?
Drain cleaning in Birmingham typically ranges from $100 to $350 depending on severity and location. Call OnTime Service at (205) 872-1944 for an upfront estimate.
Why does my drain smell like sewage?
Usually caused by a dried-out P-trap, a cracked sewer vent pipe, or a partial sewer line blockage. Try running water for 30 seconds to refill the P-trap. If the smell persists, call a professional for a sewer line inspection.

How often should I have my HVAC system serviced in Alabama?
Twice a year: AC serviced in early spring and heating checked in early fall. Alabama's hot, humid summers make regular maintenance essential for efficiency and preventing breakdowns.
What causes pipes to burst in Birmingham?
