Cleaning and clearing, inspection, and repairs! Zoom Drain is a full service provider of residential & commercial drain cleaning and inspection. We’re best known for fast response times and our ability to provide focused solutions to drain & sewer problems. From sinks, toilets, and tubs to main drains, roof drains, storm drains, and anything else that carries water, we’ve got you covered. We also offer grease trap cleaning services and planned preventative maintenance.

"Extremely customer service experience. The representative I dealt with was not only unhelpful but also came across. As both judgmental and lacking professionalism when I asked clear questions about pricing I received vague misleading answers. They scheduled an appointment that I had agreed upon for one o'clock pm but no one show up or call. Instead I received a text for 1 o'clock pm.; When I called to let them know The situation and the pricing they have changed their answer from 1 -3pm and told me that there was a fee that would be applied. When I asked a follow up question the Rep. hung up on me. The overall behavior was unprofessional and extremely biased based on demographic that they choose not to served. I would expect more transparency, respect and communication."

Simply reach out and we will dispatch a technician immediately to provide a quote and solve your problem!

"Only rating 1 because it doesn't go lower. Had a new unit installed end of Sept 24. First time power goes out on 11/5, no electricity. When tri state sells you a product, they pitch their amazing customer service with all these guarnatees of knowing when your unit is out before you know and having someone there within 24 hours etc. Well, the first call we make we are told it will be the end of Nov to get someone out to look at it. 3 weeks. Nobody shows up. Then we get a call that says "your appointment on Dec 12 has been canceled and the earliest we can get to you is Jan 16th. This is 2.5 months wait to get service to fix a nearly $20k unit, that is upcharged because of the excellent service. You can't get anyone to answer your call. you wait on hold for 20 minutes, then have to leave a voicemail in which you will not get called back. Based on my experience, find someone else and pay less. Even if the service is bad, which it can't be worse than this, you save money! @kohler"

From sinks, toilets, and tubs to main drains, roof drains, storm drains, and anything else that carries water, we’ve got you covered. We also offer grease trap cleaning services and planned preventative maintenance.

"I had two exterior faucets that were leaking, know that I risked frozen pipes if I did not have them fixed, consulted you, selected the Zoom company that was at top of list. Tehir plumber showed up on time Monday Morning, I showed him the faucets, requested that he install new washers,he informed me that they were too old to repair, suggested frost free ones, and as I knew they had to be fixed before winter, I agreed (I am still trusting them because of their Angi rating) He informs he he will have to cut hole in the finished ceiling to access pipe to complete installation, I agrees, he cuts but cannot locate pipe, goes outside to look again, cuts another hole, still cannot find pipe. He then tells me that he cannot replace it because of how the pipes are installed. Then he goes to the back faucet and decided that he cannot replace that one either. Somewhere along the line,not telling me, he shut off all water to my house someplace in front lawn. He then proceeds to put new washers in each of the faucets, I observe him doing so in the front, and turn it on and off myself. At this point, he suggests a shut off valve for the back faucet, which I agree to, and he begins cutting a length from the pipe in the rafters. Now remember, He has been in the back several times, but apparently did not notice the gas grill installed five feet from the house. IAs I agreed to the shut off, go upstairs to wait while he cuts a section of the copper pipe which he thought was water, but really was the gas connection to the grill. I soon start smelling gas, inform him, he smells it too, had an immediate evacuation. At this point he walks away from me, turns his back, starts calling someone, informs me that he has to call the fire department and Spire gas company, while I am standing there without any warm clothing in the drizzle. Fire dept. begins to clear he interior air of my house of gas, gas person goes downstairs and caps the gas pipe, they put me in his truck with heater on so I cannot hear any of the things they are discussing. I am informed that they shut off the gas (NO FURNACE!) I had to get someone in there to check everything out before they could turn it back on . I contacted Rhymes heating and Cooling , they gave me a Tuesday morning appt, but fortunately for me later in the afternoon they were able to get their man out. About this time was when your company called to ask me how it went, I started the story, your person gave me the customer service number to contact. But the story is not over...the Rhymes guy spends two hours, even calling in colleague to assist, but cannot find any leak. They cut more holes in the ceiling to access the gas line going to the kitchen stove, cannot find anything. At this point, he asks me to call Spire to ask if they can come and pinpoint what needs to be fixed to get my gas on....they suspect it might be in the meter area, which they cannot touch. Spire agrees to send an emergency guy out. By this time, my mouth is so dry I desperately need water...there is nothing coming out of the faucets.!!! The Rhymes man calls the water company, who will send emergency call. At this point, it is about 4, I pay Rhymes $389 for two hours work, necessitated b the Zoom guy cutting the gas line. A bit later, the new Spire man comes, takes the meter apart, cannot find anything there, spends another hour+ checking everything out. The water company guy arrives, cannot find any problems indoors. Remember the Zoom guy turned off the water in the main shut off...he left without turning it back on!!! Water gets turned back on. The Spire man turns the gas back on, and they both leave sometime in the dark. Bottom line, the Zoom plumber was certainly not up to the job, did not even clean up the parts of the ceiling that fell to the floor, even questioned me about all my clothes hanging in the basement, what my husband thought of it, I advised him that I had been married to an abusive man who I divorced 50 years ago, costing me $389 bill to Rhymes, $465 to Zoom for two washers, a torn up ceiling. a nightmare of a day. the"

Quacker's Waterproofing & Basement Repair has been family owned and operated since 2001. No subcontractors or commissioned sales people are used. Cost is determined by the job. Due to our experience installing waterproofing systems, fixing foundations as well as our Radon testing and mitigation experience gives us the skill sets to install Radon resistance waterproofing systems. Most of our competitors don't have this combination of skill sets there before may waterproofing systems that are installed can potentially contribute to elevated radon levels in their customer's home. We can solve most foundation/basement problems as well as improve our clients indoor air quality which is a very high priority for us. It is our commitment and responsibility to insure our customers have healthy homes and we are do nothing to compromise that. We are not tied to or required to use any propriety systems or products that many companies are vested in. We use the systems and products that we feel provide the best solution for our client's problem. For customers who want a more finished look than a normal crack injection, we offer a special surface seal that can be removed from the surface of the wall after a crack is injected leaving only the repaired crack line visible. We can also paint the basement walls to make both crack repairs and carbon fiber repairs much less visible. In addition to radon testing and mitigation we really are positioned to be a one stop shop. There are several brand name products and systems we use on a regular basis. "Fortress Stabilization" carbon fiber wall stabilization products, "Stabilizer" top and bottom adjustable I-beam brackets used with vertical I-beams for wall stabilization, and "Kryton" crystalline waterproofing products used when crack injection and other waterproofing methods will not be effective, We also use "RadonAway" radon mitigation fans for all of our radon mitigation system installation. Due to our experience repairing foundation wall cracks many times we can provide an accurate repair price over the phone with just a good discription from the client or a clear picture of the crack.

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, shower water does go into the septic tank. In fact, all the water you use in your home goes into the septic tank. This includes water from sinks, the dishwasher, the washing machine, and toilets. This water is called greywater. It’s important never to put oil or harsh chemicals down any drain because they could cause a clog in your septic system or even disrupt the natural bacteria needed for wastewater management. 

As the temperature outside warms up toward the end of winter, your pipes will thaw on their own over time. However, the process is not quick, and it depends on how extensive the blockage has become. In addition, a frozen clog can cause severe damage to your plumbing if left unattended.

Replacing a main water shut-off valve costs anywhere from $300 to $1,000, or more depending on your project’s specifications. You’ll need to replace the shut-off valve if the size of the pipe changes (as is common with trenchless replacement) or the material used in the new pipes isn’t compatible with the valve.

While you can complete this task if you have some DIY knowledge, it is recommended that you hire a plumber to ensure that the work is done correctly and safely. This is especially true if a new water line needs to by installed from scratch, as this process requires cutting into pipes or walls.

How much it will cost to install an earthquake shut-off valve depends on who’s doing the installation. The price of the earthquake shut-off valve itself can cost between $250 and $750, and you’ll pay between $150 and $200 for labor if you hire a licensed plumbing contractor. If you install the valve yourself, you’ll save on labor, but you might need to spend $50 to $300 on the right tools for the job (and it’s a complex job that we don’t recommend DIYing).
