Both Dennis and Floyd were amazing - professional and going above and beyond to help us with our clogged sewer line. After an initial fail by another plumber who shall remain nameless, we luckily found our way to Atlantic Pumping. Within a day Dennis was at our house at the promised time with all the equipment needed to remove the clog from the system. After the first, smaller auger couldn't remove the clog, Dennis used the larger auger and quickly found the mass of roots about 20 feet from the sewer line's entry into the house. This was quickly removed, but Dennis continued the full 60-75 feet to the street access to ensure no other clogs existed. Since we didn't know where the pipe ran under the yard and into the home, I'd been digging to try to find the access points. As Dennis pulled the auger back out of the drain, we were able to hear where it went around an elbow underground. This gave us an idea of where the pipe was located going into the house, but Dennis ran the auger through multiple times so we could pinpoint the location to dig for the pipe. He then stepped in without being asked to help dig and find the location of the pipe's entry into the house. As it turned out, this was exactly where the roots were entering the system though we couldn't yet determine this was culprit due to the tiny nature of the intrusion. Unfortunately the camera snake wasn't available to Dennis that day, but Floyd was able to come out the very next morning and quickly snake the camera through the pipe to determine the location of the intrusions. He made very quick work of things, didn't mind - and actually encouraged - my looking over his shoulder, and explained the three areas of concern in significant detail. Additionally, since he only needed to be at our house for a very short period of time, they charged a reduced rate for the camera work. Again, Floyd was exceptionally professional and went above and beyond in his work. I would recommend Atlantic Pumping with no reservations. I've also spoken with several others in the area as I was giving glowing verbal reviews and they have also had superb experiences with this company. You won't go wrong if you choose them. They are A+ across the board. One note related to a negative review I saw posted on the web in my searches - these guys are dedicated to pumping and cleaning out sewer lines and septic systems. While they are capable of doing repair work, that is not where their desired business is and they are very clear and polite about that when asked. The negative review complained about this fact which I believe is an unfair review. Atlantic Pumping is extremely professional and exhibits expertise in their chosen specialty.

A live woman answered after a 30-sec or so hold - I explained my need and she said she would send someone out to me and quot;this morning.and quot; Jesse the Plumber was here by 10:00 - he got right to work and was done within an hour. Awhile later I went to start some laundry, noted a tiny, tiny leak from where the new pipe connected with the old pipe. I phoned the office - spoke directly with a live woman again - and she called Jesse -who was back here in less than an hour. Easy fix! We spoke and I knew I would be very happy, if he did more work for me in that area - where the pipes were really badly corroded and very, very old. I scheduled him to come back today to replace ALL interior pipes pertaining to the well on the outside - coming into the house and into the Culligan System. He did a fantastic job, and the price was less than he had quoted. He was professional, tidy, and a pleasure to have in my home both days. If that isn't enough to cause you to use this Company let me tell you one more thing! While doing the work - water leaked a bit, he saw some old painting tarps in the area - used them to clean up the water and then before leaving tossed them into my washer - added the soap and started the load!!!!!! Somebody give this man an award for employee of the year. I don't lie in my reviews - read them. I have had some horrible, horrible contractors. THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM.

"Less than 5 years ago, I spent in excess of $10,000 to have a new unit installed with a 10 year warranty. I should have seen the red flags from the very beginning. The sales representative told us additional vents would be installed and when the installation crew showed up, that did not happen. Fast forward to the present and I am now on my 4th phone call for an appointment this season, 3 days so far of not being able to work as I waited for a technician to come diagnose the problem. The 3rd. tech came last night and indicated that the work the other tech did was not for the root of the problem. (I was told in front of witnesses that the work needed to be done, was not covered under warranty, would cost me $367 and would fix my issues)In fact, the 3rd tech only made the issue worse by leaving our attic return unscrewed and overfilling our unit with Freon that the 4th tech had to remove from our system. Upon leaving last night I was told that everything was corrected. Today - my home is slowly creeping up in temperature (presently 80 degrees inside, while set to 72). The company keeps trying to sell me a "maintenance plan" and I keep reiterating to EVERY one who pushes it that we have been getting tune ups/cleanings elsewhere and will only use them for warranty issues since we have had NOTHING but problems with them."

Repair Sewer Line questions, answered by experts
No, you should not see water in a sewer cleanout. If you do, it could indicate that you have a block or leak in your main sewer line—which can cause sewage to back up inside your home and potentially flood your yard. Your best bet is to call a local sewer cleaner if you notice any water or sewage around your cleanout.
Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.
Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.
When installing a sewer line, you should consider other potential costs before starting your project. You should determine whether the work will require tree removal, driveway repair, or patio resurfacing.
Before you commit to these extra costs, you should ask your plumber if there’s any way you can avoid them.
If the time has come to install a French drain in your yard, basement, or crawl space, there's a solid chance you've been battling water damage—or the threat of water damage—around these areas. Thankfully, proper drainage should allow you to redesign these areas of your home without the fear of being inundated during the next storm. If you've had to remove a portion of your lawn for an exterior French or curtain drain, consider reseeding your lawn to patch up the spot. You can also take this opportunity to enhance your foundation waterproofing methods or even start thinking about finishing your basement .
Most driveway repair contractors can excavate, inspect, and repair smaller culverts. However, you should hire a culvert expert for more complex projects, especially if a full culvert replacement is required. A company specializing in culvert repair and construction can also spare you the hassle of hiring multiple contractors yourself. For example, in some cases, you may need a paving company to repave after the culvert repair is complete. But by working with a specialty contractor, they can take project management off your plate.
