"I had plumbing leaks in a couple of places, but the men that did the work went above and beyond by replacing every component involved top to bottom to ensure there would be no leaks for a long time to come. Very satisfied with the quality of work as well as how quickly it was done."

Customers say: True professional

"Cody and his crew were amazing-- we had a complicated issue that required multiple visits and coordination with the city's engineers. Cody was professional, knowledgeable, and as dedicated to getting the job done right as if it had been his own home. His quotes were accurate and competitive, he and his crew were on time (and often stayed late!) and kept the work area clean and safe. We will never call anyone else!"

"Jeremiah came from Cranney to install a new light on my bathroom. He did an amazing job! He not only installed the light, he also cleaned all trash, as well as getting rid of my old light. I also had a $50 coupon I earned from earlier work. Very pleased with this company. Their prices are good and they always send qualified and knowledgeable people to do the job. Cranney Home Services is the best! Kathleen Depietro Lynn, MA"

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

Cat pee has a strong ammonia-like smell, so if you smell cat pee but don’t have a cat or don’t suspect your cat has any accidents, there could be other issues at hand. Aside from pet urine, your house may smell like cat pee from leaking freon from an old fridge, mold, spilled cleaning supplies, or even outside odors from nearby farms.

Costs range from $200 to $600, depending on the severity of the blockage and access difficulty.

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

There are many things that could cause your basement floor drain to back up. One significant cause of a drainage backup is flushing non-flushable items, such as wipes, paper towels, and facial tissue. Other causes of a backed-up basement floor drain include tree roots impeding the drain pipe or an accumulation of hair, oil, and grease.
