The washer drains and the sink gurgles
Air is being pulled through a trap, which means a partial clog or a blocked vent. Either way the drain is closing. Run the washer on its own load, listen, and tell us which fixtures complain when it empties.

What it costs
What drain cleaning costs in Broad Run.
Where the clog sits decides the price. A sink, tub or shower drain is one fixture. When every drain in the house is slow or water comes up the lowest one, it’s the main line, and that’s a bigger machine and a longer run.
Drain cleaning, one fixture
$200 to $800
Main sewer line cleaning
$550 to $1,650
Sewer camera inspection, added to a visit
$89
Prices checked .
If the main line clogs again inside a year, or the cable comes back with roots, a camera look for $89 on the same visit tells you whether it’s a clog or a broken pipe. We show you the picture either way.
Comfort+ membership is $199 a year for four visits: a dryer vent cleaning, a water heater flush with a sewer camera inspection, a heating maintenance visit and a cooling maintenance visit.
What’s different in Broad Run
Every Broad Run home is a house, half of them older than 1980, and that shapes where drains clog.
Broad Run is all detached houses. There’s no condo stack or townhouse row to blame, so a drain that stops is yours to track down. The Census counts 660 owner homes in ZIP 20137 with a median build year of 1979. A bit over half went up before 1980, and about one in six before 1960. So the first thing we ask is how old the house is.
A 1970s house here likely has cast iron or older pipe through the walls, and either scales on the inside. The signature is a kitchen sink that was a little slow three years ago and slower last year. A cable opens it to its old width, but only as wide as the scale allows. If you’ve had a drain cleared twice in two years, ask for a camera look, $89, to see how much pipe is left.
The farmhouses and older frame houses at the pre-1960 end are a different story. Many have bathrooms and laundry rooms added decades after the house went up, with a long run of pipe back to the original stack. The more turns and length an addition’s drain has, the more places for a clog to catch. Tell us which part of the house was added when, and we’ll know where to cable from.
Cold gives Broad Run its own drain complaint. A kitchen sink on an outside wall, or a laundry drain in an unheated garage, can run slow on the coldest mornings and fine by afternoon. Grease stiffens in cold pipe. If it’s still slow in the afternoon, or slow in April too, it’s a clog and we can clear it.
By the numbers
Broad Run houses, by the numbers
From the Census Bureau’s 2020 to 2024 survey, owner-occupied homes unless it says otherwise.
The Fauquier County side
ZIP 20137 as a whole: every Broad Run address. About one home in six of them is on the Prince William County side.
- Median home built1979 Census
- Built before 1980about 5 in 10 Census
- Built since 2000about 2 in 10 Census
- Most homes aresingle-family houses, nearly all Census
- Heated withelectricity, about 5 in 10 Census
- Rentedhardly any Census
- Before 1980, drains inside the house are often cast iron, which scales up inside and slows down over the years before it ever fully clogs.
Which clog it is
One slow drain, or the whole house backing up in Broad Run.
It clogs again every year or two
In houses this age the line to the street is often clay or cast iron, and roots find the joints. Clearing works, but if it keeps coming back, the camera says whether a repair would end it.
Only one sink or tub is slow
If the kitchen sink backs up but the bathroom drains fine, the clog is in that branch, usually grease or food in the kitchen, hair and soap in a tub. That’s a one-fixture clearing.

Choosing who clears it
How to pick the best plumber for drain cleaning in Broad Run.
Questions to ask anybody who offers to clear a drain, us included.
Do they ask the year of the house and any additions?
In an older Broad Run house, where the original pipe ends and the addition starts decides where the clog is. A plumber who asks before quoting is planning the job, not guessing at it.
Do they price it before they run the cable?
You should hear whether it’s a one-drain clearing or the main line, and the price for it, before anybody feeds a cable in. A price that shows up after the work is a bad sign.
Do they push chemicals or a new line on the first visit?
A clear drain doesn’t need a bottle of anything, and a single clog is not a reason to dig. If someone jumps to replacing the sewer line without a camera picture, get a second look.

Questions
Drain questions from Broad Run.
We added a bathroom years ago and it clogs more than the others. Is that normal?
It’s common. An addition’s drain usually has a long, shallow run tying into the older line, and long shallow runs hold what the others carry off. Clearing it works, and if it returns, a camera look shows the low spot.
Two bathrooms are slow and the kitchen is fine. Where’s the clog?
Probably where the two bathroom branches meet before they reach the main line. If the kitchen runs on its own line, it won’t show the problem. Tell us which fixtures are slow, and which ones aren’t, when you call.
How much does drain cleaning cost in Broad Run?
One clogged sink, tub or shower drain is $200 to $800. A main line backing up into the house is $550 to $1,650. Where the clog is and how far down it sits moves the number inside that range.
Should I pour a drain cleaner in first?
Better not. The strong ones can sit in the trap, damage older pipe, and splash back on whoever opens the drain next. Try a plunger on a sink or tub, and if that doesn’t move it, call.
