"Aaronâ s was able to get out sooner than other local company I contacted. Technician Alex is knowledgeable and good at explaining the situation as we figured out the problem over 3 visits. This was during our 2022-2023 160-year series of rainstorms. My basement and garage were flooding and I could hear the sump pump wasnâ t running. Replaced sump pump after finding the correct size. Then it ran but still flooded. He came back, figured out drain was blocked and where. This 60 year old house has had many changes over the years, so that wasnâ t easy. Replaced old drain in cost-effective way. All the while he maintained a positive professional attitude. I will call them again, including for a bid when I redo laundry room service."

"**I will never hire another plumber again** Gabriel did outstanding work and a competitive price point! Extremely responsive on text/phone to scope and quote the job, and coordinate for service delivery. Responsive on the weekend for emergency repair. Went the extra mile during the work to do it the right way, explain what he'd done, and provide recommendations for care and equipment longevity."

"I'd give SIX stars if I could... I'm so impressed with Tony and his business. I contacted him in the late evening on a Sunday and he got back to me the same night -- very responsive. His service was just as impressive in terms of being timely, honest and skilled. Thank you Tony, we'll be back next time we have any plumbing needs!!!"

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Drain pipes carry wastewater from sinks, toilets, showers, and other fixtures to the main sewer line. They’re typically located within the walls and floors and beneath a home’s foundation. Meanwhile, sewer pipes transport collected wastewater to a septic tank or a municipal sewer system.

An active cleaning agent and a drain snake is the best way to clean a main sewer line. You can purchase a regular or enzyme drain cleaner or make a DIY drain cleaner with baking soda. Use your chosen solution at least once a month or as needed to keep your sewer line clear. 

It’s sometimes difficult to distinguish a clog from a frozen drainpipe since ice technically causes a clog. If the temperature doesn’t tip you off, there are a few additional signs that your pipe is frozen. Look for condensation and frost around the pipes. Ice in pipes can cause a banging or clanking noise as opposed to a clog from a softer material.

Yes, you can pour water down the toilet to help it flush. For each flush, you’ll need 1 to 2 gallons of water for newer toilets or 3 to 5 gallons of water for older toilets. Rather than dumping the entire bucket in all at once, pour the water in slowly for the best results. If you’re pouring water down the toilet to help it flush after a clog, only use 1 gallon of hot water.

You should inspect and clean your French drain at least once per year to keep it in good working order. Regular maintenance can help identify clogs, buildup, and damage before they become bigger problems, which increases the lifespan of your drain. The frequency with which a drain clogs can depend on factors like the amount of debris, the quality of the installation, and the type of filter used. If your drain accumulates a lot of sediment, it may require more frequent cleaning. It's also a good practice to check the access and exit points after heavy storms. If you notice reduced drainage or any signs of a clog, clean the drain as soon as possible.
