"Very professional. Gave clear explanations of what was causing the issues we were having, and what was needed to fix those issues. Performed the work (installing a new water heater, redoing works in two toilets with great care not to damage anything nearby. Left work areas clean. Would recommend them highly."

"My overall experience with Mainline Hunter CCTV has been Extremely Positive. Every aspect of their service has been "Top Notch". From the initial Call to the Complete Work Detail. Each representative of this company has been Professional. The dispatch, contact, work detail, clean up and review of work performed as impeccable. This company is a "Class Act". Integrity comes to mind. They take pride in their work and they never bad mouth the previous workmanship. We were in need of a competent company to correct previous plumbing work that had failed. This company visited promptly and ascertained our needs and offered their procedures to rectify our current issues. Working from home and concerns about Noise, I had to reschedule the repair. Not an issue at all. Very understanding and explained the whole repair process, cleanup needed & Time line. I have a more personable relaxed approach to things, yet every person maintained a professional demeanor. Very Pleased Struck Gold"

"We had a great experience with Giant Plumbing and couldn't be happier with the outcome. After a previous water line repair by another company didn't meet our criteria, code, or accepted plumbing standards, Don carefully evaluated the situation, clearly explained what needed to be corrected, and handled everything professionally from start to finish. They fully removed the prior work, rebuilt the system to code, and completed the job exactly to our specifications. Their communication was excellent throughout -- thoughtful, transparent, and never rushed -- and the quality of workmanship was outstanding. The final result is clean, secure, and exactly what we had hoped for from the beginning. It was a huge relief to work with a licensed professional who takes pride in doing things the right way. We would absolutely recommend them and wouldn't hesitate to hire them again."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

You should flush your AC drain line once every three months to keep it clear of debris and buildup. Keeping your AC drain line clean prevents clogs, backups, mold growth, and extra wear on your AC unit. If you live in a humid area or have several furry pets, up your cleaning schedule to once a month.

The most common cause of a clogged sump pump is natural debris buildup. As water enters the sump pit, it can carry small pieces of debris that build up over time, or the debris can get caught in the filter. If you forget to cover the pit after cleaning the sump pump and pit, debris can also collect in the pit. Corrosion on the metal discharge pipe can also clog the pump. Additionally, if your pipes freeze, it can prevent water from draining properly and cause a clog.

You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. Sewer line replacement costs about $60 to $250 per linear foot.

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.

If you leave liquid drain cleaner for too long, it will start breaking down your drainpipes. The chemicals in these cleaners can cause cracks, corrosion, and leaks in your pipes. They can also damage plumbing fixtures and even cause environmental damage if left too long without rinsing away.
