Is $500 to clean out a main drain pipe clog a fair price?

Project Details

My husband and I wanted to get the clog checked and were shocked by the price. We have a shop vac and have watched some YouTube videos, but I wanted to get advice here first. We also just had our roof replaced, so please disregard any surrounding debris.
