"Mike answered my request for service immediately promptly arrived a half hour later and solved my problem within 45 minutes. He was extremely courteous professional and prompt. I would highly recommend his services he left without making any additional mess and was very affordable. I sincerely hope I never need his services for a main sewer line clean out, but I would definitely call him if I have any other priblems,"

"William came over when we had a leak going from our shower into the basement, and he honestly saved the day! He took the time to really listen and figure out exactly what was wrong, and he had the problem fixed relatively quickly. He was extremely professional, respectful, personable, and just an all-around great person to have in our home. He cleaned everything up when he was finished, and by the next day everything was completely back in order. I was honestly blown away by the entire experience. It’s not every day you come across someone who is so knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely pleasant at the same time. I would absolutely recommend William to everyone! If you need a plumber, call him — you won’t be disappointed! 732-856-4616 best protoday.com is the website! Ask for William"

"I am compelled to write a review. I rarely do this. In fact, I do not do it. Time does not permit me, but I am so extremely pleased with their professionalism... from the office staff up to the field technician guy, Danny. He is such a sweetheart! He did an exceptional job clearing my sewer line. A.J. Perri, could you please give Danny a promotion? I told others about my problem and the quick fix Danny did. They immediately asked me for A.J. Perris contact information. I will definitely recommend A.J. Perri to anyone and also negotiate for Danny to have an end of year bonus (that is how pleased I am with their work)"

"Technician/Plumber Nick Drouvalakis did a great job. He arrived on time, was knowledgeable and explained everything in detail, he ensured he cleaned the area after he finished the job. He was also very efficient and focused. I highly recommend Nick Drouvalakis."

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

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.

An active cleaning agent and a drain snake is the best way to clean a main sewer line. You can purchase a regular or enzyme drain cleaner or make a DIY drain cleaner with baking soda. Use your chosen solution at least once a month or as needed to keep your sewer line clear. 

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.
