"Preston is a miracle worker. We were having some mysterious issues with our toilet and shower drains in one the bathrooms in our home in Lincoln. Preston came over and performed a very thorough "investigation" and provided a couple of options to rectify our situation. He performed the work and everything has been flowing flawlessly ever since. We're going to definitely stick with Preston and Neighborhood Drains for all of our future sewer related needs. Give him a call. You definitely won't be disappointed."

"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."

"We had an emergency having to do with a crack in the main sewer pipe. It took the original plumber that one of the trustees dispatched to the property 3 days just to come up with a plan of action. Meanwhile, the entire building was not able to use any of the facilities, including toilets, showers, dishwashers and washers. When we finally received a proposal, it was for most invasive and expensive option - digging a tranche from our basement all the way to the town sewer line in the middle of the street and replacing the entire main sewer pipe. BTW, no actual diagnostics was ever performed (most contractors examine the pipe with the camera and based on actual results, recommend a solution, which could involve tranchless pipe lining or replacement in worst case scenario). To me it seemed unreasonable, so I decided to call other contractors to get a second opinion, including Ladd. To my pleasant surprise, David Ladd was one of the two contractors that shortly returned my call, although it was Saturday. Furthermore, David stopped by on Sunday to assess the situation on site. He was ready to examine the pipe with his camera on Monday and potentially get started with repairs on Tuesday. All trustees were left with very positive impression after talking to David. If we did not have another contractor, whom we contacted before, stopping by first thing Monday morning and being able to do the job right there and then, we would have most likely hired Ladd company to do the work. We will definitely consider David Ladd for any future project."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.

Outdoor plumbing issues are no less serious or urgent to fix than interior plumbing problems. These problems may require excavation and lawn repair due to the plumbing often being buried underground. The most common outside plumbing problems include:

  • Clogged landscape drainage: $200–$1,000

  • Clogged sewer lines: $60–$250 per linear foot

  • Corroded or rusted pipes: $1,500–$15,000+

  • Leaking drain lines: $200–$1,000

  • Leaking water mains: $300–$4,000+

  • Septic system failure: $600–$3,000+

  • Tree roots in pipes: $200–$1,000

  • Well pump failure: $350–$1,500

In most states, companies that perform sewer cleaning services don’t need specific licensing, but you should always ensure you hire a licensed and certified plumber to get the work done. You can use our state licensing tool to check whether the potential sewer cleaning company holds a plumber’s certification and license. Hiring a certified sewer cleaning services guarantees that the work will be done safely, there won’t be additional damage done to your home, and the problem will be fixed.

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.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.
