My biggest fear was there was a crack in my drain pipe and I was bracing myself for thousands of dollars worth of repairs that I really couldn't afford. They sent Kevin out who got to work right away to confirm that the smell was coming from the toilet. He checked all areas of plumbing in the bathroom to make sure he was diagnosing the issue correctly. The toilet was wobbly and he suspected it was an issue with the seal, but wanted to be absolute certain before taking out the toilet. Essentially, he didn't want me to have to pay for something if I didn't have to. After Kevin confirmed that the seal was the problem, he gave me an estimate before removing the toilet. Not only was the wax ring worn down, but the flange wasn't installed correctly, and sewer gas was seeping from the drain pipe. Luckily, there was no water damage. He did have to install a new flange and tried two different types before he was confident that he had the right fit. He then put in a new wax ring, tightened everything so the toilet would stop wobbling, and caulked the base. I am so impressed with Cregger's workmanship, professionalism, and honesty. Kevin kept me informed the whole time, showed me where the issues were, talked to me like an equal (and not condescendingly as is the case with other contractors I've hired), and made sure I was okay with the price before proceeding with the work. He spent well over two hours making sure the job was done right and every detail was covered. Nobody likes to have plumbing issues of any kind, but if I ever need any work done in the future, I will call Cregger first!

FAQs for french drain service projects in Peoria, IL
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The cost to install a drain pipe is $600 on average, but the total can range between $150 and $2,000. Some cost factors that influence your project price include the type of drain, the area’s accessibility, the proximity of existing drain lines, and whether you’re installing a new drain or replacing an old one. Replacing the p-trap or s-trap under a single fixture will usually cost around $150, while replacing a main drain pipe can cost well over $2,000.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
