"Jared responded very quickly, was very professional, and let me know that while he had other calls in front of me, I was a priority and that he would make sure he came out to fix my problem. He was up front about the process and the pricing every step of the way. My situation turned out to be much more involved than originally expected. He explained the diagnostic process so that I could understand what he was doing and why he was doing it. His work was thorough, careful, and he even insisted on cleaning up the floors throughout the house before he left. He went above and beyond and I appreciate everything he did and how exceptionally professional he was throughout! Very much worth the very reasonable cost and I will always use him for any other plumbing issue I encounter. Highly recommend!!!"

"Good job, not sure if price was right. Left a black streak on toilet & wall. So far everything is working correctly. The work invoice was vague, no line by line information. But thank you for your work."

"Very responsive and professional. Explained issue and solution in detail. Uses quality Rigid equipment. Unclogged our sewer pipe, scoped with a camera and cut roots with a water cutter for a fair price on any day, but even better for a Sunday morning."

"In March 2020, Clean Team Plumbing repiped our home and installed a tankless water heater. Brad was professional and honest. Our service technicians Artis and Lazurus were great and their workmanship was beyond reproach. All my questions and concerns were answered timely and professionally. The drywall team was top notch. Thank you Clean Team Plumbing for the great job."

"This contractor was completely professional, and was easy to talk to. We asked several questions while he was performing the work, and he took the time to answer our questions and concerns, and he explained what he was doing as he was performing the work. I would HIGHLY recommend Patrick Plumbing to anyone. As a matter of fact, I asked for business cards so that I could pass them out and hang them in prominent locations at my company's headquarters building. Just awesome work and friendly, professional service during the entire job. We will be calling Patrick Plumbing when/if we ever need plumbing work again."

"When they gave us the estimate, we gave them the initial deposit of $2,500. At our bank, Brian put his name above the name of the company name in different colored ink on the check. This threw up a red flag at the bank. They called us about it, telling us it would not go through. He then told us about not being able to cash it at the bank, and we wrote another for the same amount directly to Brian, thinking our bank still had the check. He told us later that he had given the first check to his brother, Andy, who cashed it immediately at another bank, so they ended up having the initial deposit and the second of three checks before they even started the job! Aside from that, they were very diligent, working almost non-stop on the replumbing project. During this period, they also asked us for a draw because of vehicle troubles, which were evident, and we gave them $100, for which they gave us a receipt. On the third day, they discovered a plaster wall that was unknown to us. They emailed us saying they could not go on without an adjustment in price ($1,000 more plus an agreement that we let them do a kitchen sink re-route to the city main sewer for $4,400. We felt that the increase was reasonable. We agreed to pay it and signed the contract for the re-route. All during this time, we had to stay in a hotel but tried to be there but out of their way when needed. During the re-route drain portion, I noted to Andy that a ceiling fan in a back bedroom was spraying water when turned on and all light bulbs placed in that fan buzzed and shorted out. He quickly offered to replace the fan, which he did that night. Earlier that day, I had to use my Shop-Vac to clean up some sheetrock dust and found soaked insulation filling the inside. I didn't tell him that day what I found, because I didn't make the connection between the two until later. He also told me that the p-trap in the guest bathroom was leaking, and he put a new p-trap on. I then told him about a kitchen sink drainage pipe that was now leaking and that we couldn't turn the dishwasher on. He performed additional work on those, and they appeared to work properly. A day after I gave him the check for the re-route, I noticed that the same p-trap in the guest bedroom was leaking, the kitchen drain was still leaking, a pipe was sticking through the wall into the entryway and a spigot on the front of the house was very wobbly and felt I couldn't put any pressure to turn it off or on. The day after that, the 4th or 5th day, I called and messaged Andy about a callback to address the problems that still needed fixing. It took a day before I got a response from him where he first said he and Brian were no longer in business together, but promised that we were "FIRST ON THE LIST" on the 21st to fix those problems. He never showed up. He ignored all phone calls and messages and has up to the date of this complaint. I then messaged Brian about coming back and fixing the items and he initially that he would but since then he has ignored all messages. I've since replaced the p-trap in the guest bedroom at my own expense, in order to get the house back together and functioning. I also had to purchase an additional $200 in materials and tools to rebuild the entryway wall where it was torn out on two sides to route pipes for the outside back spigot. I've made repeated attempts to reach both of them, both on phone and text messages, all being ignored."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

Some flushable wipes companies say they are designed to disintegrate within a few hours to a few days after being flushed. These wipes allegedly use materials that are more water-soluble than traditional wipes. However, many experts have raised concerns that even so-called "flushable" wipes do not break down as easily as claimed and can contribute to clogs and blockages in sewer systems.

To prevent plumbing and sewer problems, avoid flushing wipes, even those labeled as flushable. Instead, dispose of them in the trash. This can help prevent costly plumbing issues and reduce the strain on wastewater treatment systems.

In most states, companies that perform sewer cleaning services don’t need specific licensing, but you should always ensure you hire a licensed and certified plumber to get the work done. You can use our state licensing tool to check whether the potential sewer cleaning company holds a plumber’s certification and license. Hiring a certified sewer cleaning services guarantees that the work will be done safely, there won’t be additional damage done to your home, and the problem will be fixed.

Never pour used motor oil down the drain. Doing so can have serious environmental consequences, including contaminating groundwater, endangering animals, and killing vegetation. It can also clog your pipes, causing backups in your plumbing or the wastewater treatment plant. In most places, pouring motor oil down the drain is illegal, whether you do it in your home or a storm drain.

Costs depend on clog severity, pipe condition, equipment required, and labor.
