We received several bids to reroute the drain for our washing machine. Most of the bids wanted to reroute the drain through our front yard, and since our sewer line hook up is on the other side of the home, go under our drive way and thru our front yard. Mr. Brown was the first one to suggest going thru the back yard. He also suggested a clean out right outside of the washing machinde wall(outside), which no one else suggested. He also suggested since were going thru the back yard, that we should tie in the sink
and put a clean out there and put a clean out on the other side of the home by the bathroom, since that is the side were we had to tie into the city drain. He also suggested using a larger drain pipe to avoid any problems in the future, and once again one else suggested that. He said all this would require a city permit, which NONE of the LICENSED Plumbers told me in their bids. As he was finishing the work, he told me there were a few things that needed to be fixed that he would take of at no extra cost, which I was very greatful for. The first one, we had a small hole behind our dishwasher, and he had some extra wood and filled it in for us. The second one, was our washing machine hoses were old and he replaced them. The third one, he also rerouted our water vaulves for the washing machine and caped the old ones, something that wasn't in the bid. He didn't have to this, but it shows what kind of person he is. I will definitely use him with any and all plumbing problems I have. "},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/la/bossier-city/robert-brown-plumbing-llc-reviews-6618440.htm"},"position":10}]}

Iâ ve used Morgan Repair Services several times and will continue to use them in the future. They come out quickly during AC/plumbing emergencies and they show up when they say they will. They do quality work for a competitive price. They stand behind their work. They are not a...
It went great. The company my Home Warranty Company sent couldn't even find the sewer to clean it out. Told me to hire someone to come out and find it and they would come back and finish the job. Rinchuso Plumbing sent out two very nice, professional gentlemen who found the sewer quickly and...

The tech guy showed up and spend most of his time trying to sell me a new unit that I didn't (and don't) need. He said he blew out the line, but it was still overflowing after he left. My regular guy came out a day or two later, blew out the line and all was fine.
McWaters came out shortly after I called them about the repairs I needed. Mike spent a good amount of time going over things with me and addressed all of my questions and concerns. I was given an estimate at that time and was quoted a fair price. They came out as soon as they could (a week or...

"Technician arrived on time and was very nice. I was having an issue with my spigot and my smart sprinkler. I thought maybe the knob needed replacement because I'd had leaks in that area. I was getting a low pressure notification from the sprinkler as well. He thoroughly examined both items and assured me the pressure was fine. They were able to schedule a same day appointment for me which was really nice. Very impressed."

"Based on other reviews, the work they do must be great. The gentleman that came to our house was also very friendly and courteous. My issue came down to the pricing, which ranged from $900 for the ?band aid? option to $2400 for the platinum option. Without anything to go off of in how fair the pricing is, I decided to not be pressured by the $99 fee they charged for the plumber to come out that would be included in the repairs if I decided to go with them. Instead I wanted to get multiple quotes to see the range of pricing options. These guys weren?t even on the high end, they were in another galaxy with prices. I got the entire problem area replaced by another large/professional company in the area for $500. Highly recommend shopping around and maybe going to these guys last so you don?t throw away $99 like I did."

FAQs for sewer line repair projects in Shreveport, LA
The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.
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.
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.
You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.
The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
