"Had a flooding basement and Collins sent out Blake and Adam right away and they did a really great job getting the drains unclogged and running a camera through and taking the time to show me the condition of the whole drain pipe. Really professional and lowest price of all the bids I received, definitely recommend!"

"After discussing my sewer job with Chris from Aqua City, I hired him on the spot. He had the right plan, and his company handled every aspect. Concrete saw cutting, excavating, sewer reconfiguration and repair, backfill and concrete finishing. My advice? Save yourself time and stress and just call Chris. He stayed personally involved with his crew throughout the entire project. Great team."

"Mike and his son were great. He called me on Thursday, told me what it would cost and then showed up when he told me he would. In less than 45 minutes we had a new water heater installed and they were ready to leave. Very professional and very nice. He told my husband how to do the maintenance a couple times a year. If I need any other type of plumbing I will be contacting him again."

"Discovered that our water heater died around 7 p.m. on a Wednesday night. Within minutes of my HomeAdvisor request, Glen called. We discussed options for repairing, replacing with the same unit, or replacing with a tankless system. Glen very patiently answered all of my questions, giving me confidence that we were making the right choice instead of just the easiest one. The next afternoon, we were back up and running and couldn't be happier with the service we received. We will definitely be calling Wagner Family Plumbing for any future plumbing needs."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

Depending on the home, wastewater either goes into a septic tank and seeps back into the backyard or is sent via sewer system to a local sewage-treatment plant. Septic systems naturally separate different components of the waste so that it can naturally and safely disperse it. They are usually reserved for homes not served by a municipal sewage department (like rural homes). A treatment plant, on the other hand, speeds up that process through screening and purification.

One way to save money on sewer lines is to install a sewer cleanout since it makes sewer line maintenance easier. Keeping up with maintenance is key to reducing the cost of repairs, so be sure to schedule annual plumbing inspections, install drain guards to stop objects from accidentally falling down drains, and only flush human waste and toilet paper to protect your pipes.

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.
