Our roof plumbers specialize in roof vent repair, vent installation, and plumbing vent cleaning services.
Where Is the Plumbing Vent Located?
Your plumbing vent pipe usually extends through the roof and releases sewer gases outside. It also regulates air pressure in your plumbing system.
How Does a Vent Pipe Get Clogged?
Leaves, debris, bird nests, or ice can block the sewer vent pipe. Over time, this causes drainage issues and potential pressure buildup in the system.
Symptoms of a Clogged Drain Vent Pipe
Common signs include:
- Bubbling or gurgling sounds in drains
- Slow drainage
- Bad odors
- Toilets that struggle to flush
These may point to a blocked vent pipe or clogged plumbing vent.
Is a Clogged Vent Pipe Dangerous?
Yes, untreated vent issues can lead to gas buildup, poor drainage, or sewer backups. A clogged vent stack is more than a nuisance; it can become a health hazard.
How Much Does Plumbing Vent Cleaning Cost?
Plumbing vent stack cleaning typically costs between $150–$350 depending on access and severity of the clog.
How Does a Plumber Clean a Clogged Plumbing Vent?
We use tools like drain snakes, air pressure, or water jets to clear the toilet vent, septic vent pipe, and other roof vent lines—restoring full airflow and drainage.
