"Brent Sanderson inspected my drain lines and did a fantastic job. He was very patient and knowledgeable, answering all my questions and making sure I understood the results. He addressed all of my plumbing questions and needs, helped me locate my cleanouts, and even showed me how to use them. He walked me through the camera footage, explained the condition of the pipes in detail, and never rushed the process. I’d highly recommend him for any sewer or drain inspection work."
"We are very pleased with the paving work Isaac of That Guy Landscaping did in our yard. He installed 650 square feet of pavers to make a walkway and three large patio areas on yard that had formerly been covered with landscape rock. He also installed new irrigation piping and lines. Isaac is pleasant to work with, meticulous, competent, and competitively priced. Compared to other companies that gave us quotes for the same work, Isaac was a breath of fresh air. Highly recommend."
"It went really well initially. Process was smooth, and there was no need to babysit the company. They are much more expensive than other quotes I received, though. I chose to go with them because I thought the increase in price would mean no issues. I was wrong. It took them 10 months to come repair one broken tile that broke on installation...4 phone calls later, no response. My husband posted a poor review of them on Google, and they were out the next day. I am saddened that it took a poor review to encourage this company to fix something 10 months after the fact."
"Al's Plumbing did an awesome job repairing my draining system for my kitchen sink. The time he took to get me in the schedule was extremely quick. Next day service. Thank you so much 👍😃🌵"
"I called American Discount Plumbing to install a under the sink garbage disposal for me in the kitchen.I called Pavel on Monday and he came over to assess the situation and got an idea of what he had to get in materials etc and he came over Tuesday morning and did my job.A matter of fact he called me and asked me if he could come over a little early and that was really helpful!He got started promptly and took out all the old plumbing and had to install all new plumbing because my plumbing wasn't set up for a garbage disposal.He got it all in and checked for leaks and made sure everything was working properly. He even put in a new drain on the other side for no extra charge! He put all of his garbage in a plastic bag and cleaned up after himself.I have not one negative comment about the quality of service i got.Pavel is a quality oriented professional and he's great on the price too! He's the only plumber i have in my phone book. "
"Mark and Randy Aden were sent to my home to give me an estimate on relocating a roof drain. After looking over the work they let me know that, while they would be happy to do the work, it would be less expensive for me use their subcontractor instead (which is who they would be using anyway for this job). I thanked them for this information and was impressed by their willingness to help me get the job done for less cost. This type of professionalism is becoming more and more uncommon. If I ever have a need for a plumbing service I will definitely call on this company again. AND the person they referred me to came out and gave me an estimate shortly after their visit."
"I contacted them on Saturday evening. They called back in a couple of hours.They came out by 10 am on mothersday. They vent was right near the power phone and cable lines so they had to wait for the power company to clear the area to dig. That did not happen until Monday morning. They men arrived by 9:15 am and were done by 10:30am. They dug a 5 foot hole that went under the driveway. Then they cut the clogged section out cleared the pipe and repaired the cut. They also ran a camera in both directions to inspect the pipe. I paid by credit card and they were gone. Aside from the ouch of having to pay for something that should not have happened to begin with it was pretty painless. I would recomend them to anyone who needed a plumber. They gave me a $500 discount because I had a home warranty. The warranty did not cover the issue because it was in the line outside the home and the issue was caused by children drop rocks in the line. "
"We still use them. It wasn't a perfect installation; we ended up having a leak and some water damage, but they covered it. They did respond pretty well to the problem; their response was good. Even though we ran into a problem, their responsiveness was good enough that I continue to use them. They're very nice and I use them once a year."
Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts
If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.
Main sewer lines can clog for several reasons. For example, if you regularly dump oil or grease down your drain, it could eventually block your line. Sometimes, tree roots can penetrate and grow inside old sewer pipes, creating a major blockage. Flushing bulky items (like paper towels, diapers, or baby wipes) can also clog your plumbing system.
Septic tanks can clog if they aren’t pumped every few years since solid waste accumulates inside of them. Your tank might also clog if you have a habit of flushing anything other than human waste or toilet paper. Items like diapers, baby wipes, paper towels, cat litter, and personal hygiene products should never go down your pipes.
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.
As a preventative measure, hydro jetting should be done every one to two years. However, the best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age and condition of your pipes, how prone they are to clogging, how often the sewer line is used, and the type of waste disposed of in the system. If you frequently experience clogs or are unsure, it's best to ask a licensed plumber for a recommendation specific to your plumbing system.
