We are a Family owned local business with over 20 years of experience in the Basement Waterproofing field. Our focus is quality work and an honest assessment. You will notice our attention to detail and level experience from our office staff, to our field inspector, and our installation crews. We have zero salesman on staff, just the best inspector and installation crew in the business.

"Gary arrived on time , inspected the basement and the perimeter of the house and told me that what I need is to work on the gutters and downspouts. If that doesn’t solve the issue then I should consider a French Drain and sump pump on one side of the house and that would cost me around $3500. JES tried to make me sign a contract for 32k a couple of days ago and they wanted me to basically destroy the entire finished basement on top of it. I appreciate Gary’s honesty, it’s so hard to find someone like that nowadays. I will definitely called Armored Basement Waterproofing if still needed after fixing the gutters. 100% recommended!"

Here at Clear Line Plumbing, we are proudly serving Baltimore and Harford County. We have over ten years of experience servicing homeowners for their plumbing needs. We specialize in residential plumbing service, water treatment, drain cleaning, and water/sewer replacement.

"Put this plumber in your contact list with a star! We have used Clear Line in the past & referred several satisfied neighbors. When we needed the water heater & water line for our refrigerator replaced, we called Robert who did a stellar job. He was friendly, professional & did quality work. We were exceptionally pleased to have found such a conscientious plumber who went the extra mile to install an accessible shut off valve. This shut off valve was invaluable when our ice-maker started leaking! Recently, we developed a pinhole leak in the basement & although he was booked, he arranged for his dad’s company to come same day in his place. Seems good plumbers run in the family! Again, Robert had our back, which was much appreciated along with the experience of being charged honest prices. It’s nice not to have to worry about being taken advantage of when emergencies happen. His prices have been consistently outstanding for the work performed & the job is always done right! Very happy."

"Terrible. Scam Artist. I was supposed to just get a cleaning AFTER another company came to unclog my AC pipe. Somehow after they come to clean they turn off my heat (which was never an issue) and are telling me i have $1,000 to repair it. PLEASE BEWARE. I'm filing a complaint with the BBB and possibly the courthouse. The owner says he knows for a fact his Technicians don't lie. That speaks volumes being its a lie."

We specialize in Drain Cleaning, Sump Pumps, Hydro-Jetting and Camera Inspections and are the guys that keep people honest. We clean and clear your sewer or drain line and let you see what the problem really is. This way you are not paying for a sewer repair or replacement that you do not need. We will tell and show you if it was just a simple clog. We do not replace sewer lines for this reason.

"Excellent. Mike was a pleasure to deal with and gave me a good quote over the phone. Even though the work extended beyond the original issue, Mike refused more payment. This earns my loyalty concerning any further work and I've already recommended his company to other people. James came out to do the work and he also was a pleasure to work with and persisted until the problem was corrected which was no small task. Good experience all around."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Professional plumbers use many high-grade chemicals to unclog drains. Many use hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid, when it comes to extreme blockages. 

It is generally safe to stay in a house with sewer gas for a short time, even though short-term exposure is unpleasant. However, prolonged inhalation can cause headaches, nausea, or respiratory irritation. High levels of methane—which is in sewer gas—can pose an explosion risk in enclosed spaces. Ventilate the area and call a pro if you smell sewer gas or experience related health symptoms.

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.

Even if the shower drain doesn’t seem clogged or dirty, plan to clean it out about once per month—or more frequently if you or your family shed a lot of hair. It’s a good practice to remove any hair from the drain on a daily basis, as hair can accumulate fast and cause clogs in no time. You may also want to have a plumber thoroughly clean the drains in your home once every six months.

Knowing the signs can alert you to a clogged drain line. Clogs cause slow drainage or cause no drainage (if there’s a complete blockage). You may also notice foul odors, gurgling noises, water backing up in other appliances on the same line, or a poorly flushing toilet. If you experience any of these issues and think your line might be clogged, call a plumber.
