"If I could, I would give this horrible service provider a 0.0! I scheduled a plumbing appointment on a call, which was confirmed via multiple texts the day prior to the appt. Then had an employee go to the location during the 4 hour window they specified and wait for the plumber. On the day of the appt, 1 hour into the time window someone calls and says, sorry we’re not going to go because we only do residential plumbing. This was a surprise, as it was communicated to them that this was a business when I had set up the appt. So, I decided to speak with a manager. After spending over an hour of being bounced around from one dept to another, asking for a manager, they never connected me to one and their dispatcher had the audacity to say “sorry for your inconvenience, but you’ll just have to find someone else.” WOW! The hoops they make you jump through and the rudeness is not worth the hassle. I would definitely recommend you find a different plumbing pro for your project!"

Clean out basement crawlspaces and garages while waterproofing.

"The job inside was done. However the drainage put in outside has turned our yard into a swimming pool. We once had a pipe draining to the creek and this was a perfect solution to the rains/weather. These guys came in and put a round small cylinder well. Water pumps up into our yard turning it into a swamp. Called them to come and see the problem they created. Their response $2900 to fix THEIR DAMAGE. I WOULD NEVER RECCOMEND THIS COMPANY!!"

"We paid close to $20,000 to BQ Basements to completely waterproof our basement. We still get water and they told us we need another sump pump installed at over $2,000. They guaranteed we would not get water after installation. Be aware they do not stand behind their work or honor warranties."

We are extremely passionate about the work that we do. You can depend on us to provide a high quality service at a fair and honest price. We understand that the future of our business depends upon our reputation and that is why customer service is by far our highest priority. If you are looking for a professional you can trust, please call today to schedule a no-obligation estimate!

"Beware! Csaba is a dishonest business person whose negligence cost me $8K to fix. He sold me a 3 ton ac with 4 ton furnace with oversized blower - irresponsible and horribly mismatched in the words of one of the contractors I called in to estimate the remedy - that left me with rattling ductwork, unacceptable noise and too frequent cycling. He blamed me for the mistake, saying I wanted more air flow to cool 2nd floor, when in fact I made it clear I wanted the opposite, in fact was disappointed that the 2 stage ac I initially ordered for this exact purpose had to be cancelled due to condenser space constraints. I was never told it was a 4 ton blower (all paperwork showed 3 ton) until all other attempted fixes, insulating the return ductwork to try to reduce noise, which he claimed was undersized though it was fine for 20 years and perfect for a 3 ton blower, and 2. lowered blower settings to an unsafe speed. We all make mistakes but when it is handled in this manner it is nothing short of fraudulent. The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten. BTW, this is the first time I have ever posted a review online or reported a contractor to BBB."

Repair Sewer Line questions, answered by experts

Sewage smells are among the most common signs of a broken sewer line. You might also have slow or backed-up drains, gurgling noises coming from your toilet, and sunken spots on your lawn. Similarly, if one area of your lawn starts to come alive and looks abnormally healthy, it might be due to a broken sewer line under your yard.

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.
