"I had an encapsulation accomplished along with beam repairs, fungicide treatment, beam repairs, jack installation, French drain, etc.. It was a project that took a few weeks. Over that time the teams were always on time, cordial, friendly, and upbeat. They modified a few items based on my personal preferences without any issues. Any concerns I had were immediately addressed and none were overlooked. The teams kept the house clean, and made me aware of progress each day. The office staff was also outstanding, any calls I made were always returned quickly and had positive results. The job turned out wonderful. The work looks fantastic. I am very happy with the outcome."

"So very pleased! After getting multiple estimates from other foundation companies in the area, I could not be happier choosing Virginia Foundation Solutions. The attention to detail and professionalism was above and beyond their competitors and my expectations. From my initial consultation with the sales rep, to the crew installing the work, it could not have gone smoother. Everyone I dealt with was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and they made sure the work was done with accuracy! I highly recommend VFS to anyone in need of foundation repairs!!"

"The guys were great! They found the problem and were able to fix it in a cou[le of hours, which included some digging in the cold. It was a tricky situation involving roots and the drain to the septic. They spliced in a new piece of pipe, cut the root and we were good to go. Very reasonable and very nice gentlemen. I definitely would recommend them, and would use them again should I have another problem."

"Gabriel was a very well versed technician in regards to sewer drains. He came in and listened to me and then went straight to work fixing the problem, the right way.. He cleared the blockage and throughly tested to be sure the problem was in fact, no longer a problem for me. Cleaned up after himself. Asked if I had any questions. Very, very polite young man. Definitely will remember him and will not hesitate to recommend him to anyone! Thanks for a job â well done!â"

"Tim is a good communicator, keeping me updated as per his time of arrival. He arrived on time, respected our home by placing protective coverings over his boots without being asked. Performed tests to replicate and confirm the problems I stated and snaked the upstairs drain through the shower to clear the obstruction. His pricing is on the higher side curve for these services although we were very satisfied with the service provided. I would recommend and refer Tim Campbell to others."

"I love them so much, I took them to my mother to do service as well! They were quick, cleaned up after themselves real well, and they were 100% above, and beyond. My mother has a very hard accent so some doesn't talk to her, and talks to me instead and that irritates her, but this company tried their best to talk to her. I recommend ASAP Sewer & Drain to my family, and friends."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Clogged pipes are one of the top signs your water heater is about to fail. Potential symptoms of excess sediment buildup include not enough hot water, leaks, unusual noises, low water pressure, and discoloration or odors in the water.

French drains may fail when they become clogged with soil granules that slip through the pores of the landscaping fabric and through the holes in the pipe. 

Over time, this debris can build up inside the pipe and prevent water flow. To prevent this failure from happening, regularly flush out your French drain and keep debris away from the inlet grate.

You should inspect and clean your French drain at least once per year to keep it in good working order. Regular maintenance can help identify clogs, buildup, and damage before they become bigger problems, which increases the lifespan of your drain. The frequency with which a drain clogs can depend on factors like the amount of debris, the quality of the installation, and the type of filter used. If your drain accumulates a lot of sediment, it may require more frequent cleaning. It's also a good practice to check the access and exit points after heavy storms. If you notice reduced drainage or any signs of a clog, clean the drain as soon as possible.

The cost to unclog a drain varies based on the location and severity of the clog. For simple clogs within your home, such as in a sink, toilet, or shower, hiring a plumber typically costs between $110 and $350, with an average of around $200. Snaking a toilet or sink usually costs between $110 and $275, while a bathtub or shower clog costs about $225.

For a more serious clog in the main sewer line, the cost is higher. Clearing a main line clog generally costs between $200 and $600, with an average of about $380. However, prices can range from as low as $100 for snaking a minor clog to over $1,600, particularly if advanced methods like video inspection and hydrojetting are needed for a large or hard-to-reach blockage. Some severe main line clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear depending on factors like the cause of the clog, its distance from an accessible cleanout, and whether the pipe is located beneath an occupied space (e.g., in an apartment building). You may be able to save money on minor clogs by using a drain snake or bladder yourself.

The spin cycle on your washer should initiate draining, but if you still find leftover water in the washing machine tub, you may need to drain it manually. To manually drain a washing machine, you’ll need to turn off the power supply and locate the drain hose, filter, and pump. Open or disconnect these parts and let the water drain into a bucket.
