"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."

"Jesus did a great job: the house builders installed irrigation that tapped into the water main before the valve into the house, so that a leak in the irrigation system (plastic pipes) meant that we had to shut off water to the house at the water meter at the curb. We had a leak in a buried plastic irrigation pipe, and so we had to do without water until it could be fixed. Jess installed a copper pipe to split off from the main pipe and added a valve, and mated copper pipe to the irrigation plastic pipes, so that if there were a future leak in the irrigation system, it's easy to shut that off w/o having to shut off the whole house. Jesus was on time, did a great job, fixed things quickly, and I'd definitely hire him again."

"The folks @ Mike Counsil have done work for us in the past, including the heater installation and unclogging/cleaning a backed up drain. Any time we've had work done by them, they are always right on time and very professional. They get the job done and clean up after they're finished to ensure there's no clean up for the customer. I highly recommend them for all of your plumbing needs."

"Our guest house bathroom had a drain issue. ICR started the snake cable and found out that there was an obstruction on the main line. They used their camera to find out what the issue was and found out that an old cable was left in the line. They were able to call the city to work on the issue. All was done very quickly and professionally. I would use them again for sure."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

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.

Sometimes, the drain is just too clogged—thanks, stubborn hair and soap scum. In this case, you’ll need a more powerful drain cleaner than you can DIY safely at home. But this doesn’t mean you have to choose a traditional drain cleaner. 

You can find biodegradable drain cleaners at your local home improvement store or online for those drains that need a little more oomph

While on the hunt for a formidable drain cleaner, the best options are non-chemical clog solutions that combine enzymes and bacteria.

A liquid drain cleaner can sometimes make a clog worse over time if you use it improperly or too much. The chemicals in drain cleaners can corrode and damage pipes, causing cracks and leaks that may cause further blockages. If the clog is more than the liquid drain cleaner can handle, the cleaner will simply add chemicals to a bigger overall problem.

If your kitchen is flooding, first turn off the water supply and electricity before entering the room. Next, focus on immediate flood control by cleaning up any standing water with a sump pump or wet-dry vacuum to prevent long-term water damage to your home. Open your windows and run any dehumidifiers you have handy. Finally, call a professional plumber to help find the source of the flood and repair it.

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.
