"

It was basically we have a 99-year-old drain that goes in the ground, God knows where it goes. Things are a little different 99 years ago. So, we don't know if the track in that drain is closed up or if it is clogged up. It would be next to impossible that it fits again till so they were recommending some diversions and we decided we will get a rain barrel to put at the bottom of the down style and then just have that original drain capped off and closed.


They gave me an estimate for one of the diversions that I chose not to do and their estimate was $2,259 so I still have to call them back and give an estimate on the cut and cap of the drain. My impression is that that should be hopefully less than $100 or less than $200.

"Chris is an amazing worker and came in and worked fast. He was super nice and described exactly what he’d be doing. He’s redone my disposal (kitchen) and my faucet in the main bathroom. He is definitely the first person I would recommend to anyone needing home improvement!!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Bleach isn’t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn’t useful in this situation because it won’t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda.

Yes, continuing to flush a clogged toilet is not likely to break up the clog. Instead, it will continue to put pressure on the clog while filling the bowl with more water, which can potentially cause the toilet to overflow—leading to an even bigger mess. Rather than repeatedly flushing, use a toilet plunger or plumber’s snake to dislodge the clog.

A bit of water in the bowl can help unclog a toilet, especially if you're using a plunger. However, if the bowl is full to the brim, you'll need to strap on gloves and remove some of the wastewater in a cup or container so it doesn't overflow when you try to unblock the pipe. If you're concerned about it filling further, manually close the flapper in the toilet tank or turn off the water supply to the toilet.

An active cleaning agent and a drain snake is the best way to clean a main sewer line. You can purchase a regular or enzyme drain cleaner or make a DIY drain cleaner with baking soda. Use your chosen solution at least once a month or as needed to keep your sewer line clear. 

Clean regularly with non-abrasive cleaners, avoid pouring grease down the drain, and check for leaks under the sink.
