Moose was a professional. He had the right equipment and knew how to use it. His experience counted. Never try this yourself when you can get a top notch result at a very affordable price.

Mel discovered that the pipe had and quot;shiftedand quot; in the ground and was not running straight. He could also see cracks in the line. We are currently awaiting on Kirkwood, as they provide 75% of replacement costs. Mel discovered the problem right away and came out right away. We were very pleased with his work, thus far.

We had a plumber who was ok, and when we suddenly had a clogged drain that we just could not fix on our own, we called them. They said to call Mel. He came the same day, even though it was right near the holidays. He and his helper cleaned out our drains using incredibly large and powerful snakes. The problem was that our house, new to us, had not been maintained and the drains in the basement were clogged with dirt and debris from an outside drain. He cleaned it up as good as new and charged us a grand total of $75. Amazing. Two years later, we had problems with another drain clogging. We figured it was the same problem and called him again. He came, checked it out, and pretty quickly figured out the drains were all fine, so the problem was from the house to the street. He started working on that, and by looking in the drain, and watching the water flow, said that my trap had actually been put in backwards when the house was built, some 90 years ago. Now that the clay pipe has worn away, it's not working. We looked at the video from when the drain inspection, and the video was murky there, which should have tipped them off. We had it re-videoed, and yes, the trap was in backwards, just like Mel said. Mel said that the town would pay for a portion of it, so we went that route. Mel was great, and his years of experience really paid off for us.
Description of Work: cleaned out my severely clogged drains. came again when they re-clogged and diagnosed a major problem with my sewer lines correctly that an inspector with camera had missed.

see above for story
Description of Work: We had a roots plugged system on the way to a septic tank. Myself and others had trouble rooting through the pipes which had copper 90º corners. Mid America Drain failed to clear the drain and left it as bad as they found it, charged dearly while responding coldly to my complaint on the phone--offering no plan to fix the problem. To be fair an earlier man from Mid America cleaned out the drain perfectly four years earlier. Mel sent John to unplug us, remove old copper pipes and put in new larger pvc including a cleanout valve. It looks efficient and cool. Work was done pronto and cleanly and at a reasonable price. Now I can do my own clean out should it be necessary, but for any other work I'd call Mel and John in a heartbeat.

Came home from traveling over the weekend to find standing water in the basement. Was able to get a service appointment within an hour of calling. They evaluated the situation to determine the cause of the standing water then unclogged the pipe.

He was nice. He was on time and courteous. He didn't make a mess. He tried to inform me of the problem and he educated me on what we could do to not have it happen in the future.

He was the only one that did the job right - he was the 3rd company that I hired to come out. They were the best one that I used. He did a very good job and did a couple of things that other people indicated they were not able to work on. He knew exactly what to do and was very experienced. I will certainly use him again in the future and recommend him.
Description of Work: My floor drains were clogged in the basement because of tree roots. They opened up all the drain lines that went into the sewer.
