"Joe does all his own work himself. We were on a tight schedule and he was able to come the same day I called. He didn’t just plug the leaks, but replaced the connecting pipes. He took out the old system and disposed of it for us. He was done quickly and left no mess."
"Andrew came early and was very professional. He quickly removed and replaced my broken toilet flanges. He gave me some good advice and was there less then 1 hour. A very pleasant fellow and I would hire him again. Price was reasonable. Thank you All-State Plumbing."
"Tom replaced my kitchen faucet and two bathroom faucets and did an absolutely excellent job! He was extremely professional and the cost was much lower than what I expected! While here he also took care of a slow drain with my master tub and it now drains perfectly! I would highly recommend him to anyone with any plumbing needs!!"
"It was great! Even the pipes under my house were clogged and they cleaned them. I was amazed at the debris that was in those pipes but I watched the entire procedure myself. Some of the gunk had been there since the previous owners. Now I no longer have to watch when a toilet is flushed because all of my pipes have been unclogged and are running much faster. I would absolutely recommend "A New Beginning Environmental". Ask for Nelson because he really knows the details of his profession."
"Mr. Rooter of St. Augustine is punctual and fast. He found the problem right away, fixed it. The price was reasonable. He pulled the carpet and followed the trail of moisture to the sink, turned on the faucet and knew exactly that it was a slow leaking drain basket in the kitchen. When I called he was here within 30 min."
"Draining issue from a gutter was causing erosion near our house foundation. Morné came out the next day to give us a quote, and was able to schedule repairs quickly to fit around us leaving town on vacation.
Highly recommend!"
"Sunset Plumbers provided prompt and accurate service. He knew exactly how to resolve the issue and pricing was affordable. He was able to resolve an issue with sewage backup that others were never able to fully fix. My husband and I are beyond pleased and happy we can now utilize our toilets and tub"
". They arrived on time, did the job quickly. Answered a couple questions I asked about possible future jobs-didn't try to up.sell me. I thought I had located a really wonderful plumber that I could count on in the future. That is until later-this townhouse in FL is not a home I am in very often-our daughter lives there full time-but isnt.Ms Handy. Later I went to do dishes and discovered that the sink has separated from the granite and has a large open gap on the same side where they just replaced the drain. They did NOT cause this problem however they did not bring it to my attention either and my discovery was to late in my visit to do anything about it -so I must return again.They knew I was there to wait on repairmen to fix the house issues (AC and electrician were also coming)-I dont know if they thought I would ask them to fix it and they didn't want to but I can not believe they didn't notice it.

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts
A small amount of diluted bleach is okay to pour down a garbage disposal. As part of your weekly garbage disposal maintenance, use 1 teaspoon of bleach with your concoction of ice cubes and lemon peels. Turn on the disposal and run the water until the blades chop up the ice cubes.
Any more bleach in your disposal can harden oils and greases in your drain, which can cause problems. Always wear gloves when working with bleach, and know that you really don’t need bleach at all—vinegar, baking soda, salt, and ice should do the trick.
If you have a sink stopper, it can feel more challenging to clean the drain without removing it, but here are a few simple steps:
Pour ½ cup baking soda into the drain using a funnel
Pour 1 ½ cups vinegar into the drain
Close the sink stopper for 15–20 minutes
Open the drain
Pour 2 cups of boiling water down the drain (be cautious as boiling water can damage some types of pipes)
If the drain isn’t unclogged, repeat the process.
DIY plunging or drain cleaning chemicals may help minor clogs, but professional hydro jetting ensures long-term solutions.
The cost to clean a sewer line is about $370, ranging from about $190 to $550 on average. The specific cleaning method and the problem's severity will impact the project's overall cost.
Some of the most common sewer line cleaning methods include:
Snaking or rodding: $100–$250
Hydrojetting: $350–$600
Chemical treatments: $600–$1,000
Repair or replacement: $1,000–$7,500
You may have a clogged gutter. Downspouts can also clog if your gutter collects too much debris. Hire a professional gutter cleaner, and if you still have problems, install a gutter guard (which prevents debris from entering your gutter system) and a downspout extension (which helps drain water further away from your foundation, so it doesn't pool near your house). Follow these tips to keep your gutter downspouts clean.
