"Warren and Sons showed fantastic workmanship and excellent professionalism. They showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves, and were more than fair with pricing. I definitely will trust them with all my future plumbing needs. I highly recommend Warren and Sons. I am pleasantly surprised."

"They did a good job and followed up quickly to install a riser. Good service at a good price. BUT... I was a bit skeptical of their recommendation for a new filter and expensive turbo cleaning of the septic field/components. I declined the recommendation. The septic field isn't showing any signs of a problem (soggy/soft ground). I might regret it, but I suspect they were needlessly upselling me."

"Excellent service. Technician quickly analyzed and corrected a minor issue with the septic system. He took the time to answer all my questions about the system, how to treat it, when to check it again, the basic workings of the three-part pumping process, etc. Since the system did not need to be pumped out, there was no charge! Honesty goes a long way and earns a sterling review."

"These people are great! The service, the price, the quality of work are excellent. What I liked best, besides the personality of the plumber, was the pricing schedule. Everything is laid out with all choices made available. The service was quick, effective, and I will save so much money on my water bill this month, I can hire them again! I highly recommend this company. They arrive on time, are very respectful, and the service is excellent. Karolyn Stanley"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It is safe to flush small amounts of bleach down the toilet. Don’t flush more than ¼ cup of bleach. Instead, consider diluting it and pouring it down the sink drain.

Depending on the home, wastewater either goes into a septic tank and seeps back into the backyard or is sent via sewer system to a local sewage-treatment plant. Septic systems naturally separate different components of the waste so that it can naturally and safely disperse it. They are usually reserved for homes not served by a municipal sewage department (like rural homes). A treatment plant, on the other hand, speeds up that process through screening and purification.

No, you should not see water in a sewer cleanout. If you do, it could indicate that you have a block or leak in your main sewer line—which can cause sewage to back up inside your home and potentially flood your yard. Your best bet is to call a local sewer cleaner if you notice any water or sewage around your cleanout.

In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.

Snakes can occasionally enter homes through shower drains, although it’s quite rare. This can happen when they follow sewer pipes or accidentally find their way into plumbing systems. To minimize the risk, consider installing drain covers or stoppers on your shower drains. Always keep drains closed when they’re not in use, especially in areas where snakes are known to be active.
