  • Why You Should Get a Plan

    It can cost hundreds of dollars to clear clogged lines, snake drains, and fix leaking pipes and thousands of dollars to repair your sewer/septic line.‡

    Interior plumbing and sewer/septic line problems can cause:

    • blocked or slow shower and sink drains
    • burst pipes behind your walls or ceilings
    • clogged/backed up drains inside your home
    • leaking supply to your water heater
    • sewage back up in your yard

    As a homeowner, you may be responsible for the plumbing and drainage lines inside your home and for the sewer/septic line on your property, and you may have to arrange and pay for any necessary repairs. This illustration shows repairs that are performed on these lines and how much licensed and insured plumbers would typically charge. ‡National average repair costs as of January 2023. No charge for covered repairs up to your service call benefit amount.
