"Nick is absolutely outstanding. I have never worked with any service person who treated me like I was his only customer. He listened attentively and clearly explained my options. He completed the job quickly and thoroughly. The camera service on drain indicated additional repairs needed underground. I will engage Nick and feel absolutely confident the job will be done with excellence."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Alan was very prompt with answering my call, arrived when he said he would. He looked at the job and gave me a price that we agreed on. Alan started work on Monday and finished up on Friday! The flagstone walk looks great he cleaned up after himself and even replaced a sprinkler head with two! What a great experience ! I will be calling him again! He also put in a French drain for me."

"Nykel did excellent service! He was prompt, kind, and patiently explained the issues wth the old toilet. He pulled it up and the phlange it set on which required a lot of work, drove to the store and bought the new toilet and any other materials which were needed, and replaced the new items in a very timely fashion! Would I ask him back if we had any other plumbing needs? You betcha! Jim Woodard"

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.

It’ll take 20 to 30 minutes to unclog a sewer line using a drain snake or drain cleaner. If you hire a professional, you should expect them to be on-site for three hours or less. In addition to clearing the clog, they’ll do other routine inspections, which adds to the overall time (and cost) required.

You can try several easy methods to unclog a drain, one of the easiest and most effective of which is to use a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. This will help dislodge and dissolve the clog to move it down the drain pipes. Pour 1/2 cup baking soda into the drain, followed by 1/2 cup of white vinegar. Dump several cups of boiling water (or hot water if you have PVC pipes) into the drain and let sit for up to one hour. Run hot water to clear the drain.

No. You should never pour old paint down a drain or sewer because it can clog pipes and pollute the environment. You must dispose of paint properly and safely. Different types of paint need to be disposed of in different ways—oil-based paints must be taken to a paint recycling center, while you can throw dried-out water- or latex-based paints in the garbage. 

If you try a drain snake and various DIY methods for unclogging drains to no avail, bring in a professional plumber to assess the situation. Also, if multiple drains in your home are backing up or you smell sewage, a visit from a plumber is best. You can expect your drain cleaning costs to fall around $250, and this can include an assessment of what’s caught in your plumbing and if there’s a larger, underlying problem. You should also consider calling a pro if you need to snake a toilet, as DIYing this could lead to a cracked fixture.
