"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."

"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."

"Response time was quick and the office was helpful in scheduling. I was impressed with the work done and will hire Sila again. The technician (Gage) wore booties and was respectful of my house and made sure to clean up after all the work was done. Unit working great."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

There are a few things that can happen to your sewer system if you don’t fix it. These include rainwater entering it and causing rust and corrosion, dirt and debris leading to blockages, small animals getting stuck inside and clogging your sewer line or entering your home, and shortening the sewer system’s life span. 

Without a cap, nothing prevents toxic and non-toxic gasses like methane and hydrogen sulfide from slowly escaping your sewer system and entering your home and the surrounding atmosphere, resulting in a foul sewer odor throughout your house.

Your home has a few telltale signs of a sewer line problem. If you notice multiple plumbing fixtures (toilet, sink, or shower drains) appear to be clogged, call a plumber ASAP. Also, if water appears in the tub or shower when you flush the toilet, you likely have a sewer line issue. A sulfur (rotten eggs) smell and bubbling or gurgling noises at the drain also warrant a check. And keep your eyes peeled for changes to the yard, such as a new indentation or mysteriously soggy grass.

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

If you don’t have a sewer cleanout, clearing out clogs can be extremely difficult. You would need to try to clear the clog from sink drains, but it can be harder to reach the clog all the way in the drain line. A sewer cleanout makes it much faster and easier for pros to clear clogs from your main sewer line.

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.
