"The job was extremely difficult and all I can say is that Jeff and his crew were resilient.  He did not give up and had to go get more bags of concrete.  Lifting a slab of this size has a lot of guess work involved.  Jeff tried to predict the amount of concrete, but due to the unknown condition below the slab, it took more.  Jeff and his courteous worked until the job was done, which took longer than expected.  He did not complain and kept a positive outlook being honest to the customer.  His predictions as far as how the slab would rise, what would happen to the existing cracks, and how the final job would look were fairly accurate.  He cleaned up thoroughly.  I want to say that doing this kind of work with a job such as ours, may not always have a perfect outcome, but under our circumstances, we were pleased.  One thing I appreciated about Jeff was his willingness to explain as he went and not treat me like I could not comprehend.  He took his time doing the job as he had described and bid on.  His bid was fairly thorough, and please remember, that some jobs have unknowns and customers need to be understanding.  Even though Jeff needed more concrete than he had arrive with, he said he would not charge us for the additional concrete, however, in all fairness, we insisted on paying a bit extra for the overall job.  I would hire Jeff and his crew again."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

When hiring a sewer line company, you need to consider more than just the quoted price. Make sure to check that the company or contractor is licensed, certified, and insured to protect you both. Check for positive reviews, and you can even request references for extra peace of mind. 

To find the best contractor, you might also want to consider how long the company has been in business doing sewer line cleaning and if they’ve won any industry awards for their work and service. Review potential contracts closely, and look for transparent pricing.

A sewer line should be cleaned at least once every 18 to 22 months. The process takes about 30 minutes or up to 5 hours, depending on the size of the line, how easy it is to access, and how long it’s been since the previous cleaning. If your sewer line hasn’t been cleaned in a couple of years or you don’t even know the last time it’s been cleaned, it’s time to call a pro.

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

Main sewer lines can clog for several reasons. For example, if you regularly dump oil or grease down your drain, it could eventually block your line. Sometimes, tree roots can penetrate and grow inside old sewer pipes, creating a major blockage. Flushing bulky items (like paper towels, diapers, or baby wipes) can also clog your plumbing system.
