"Chris came over and had my drain snaked within a half hour. He was very friendly and knowledgeable! He took the time to explain everything he was doing and didn't make me feel like I was a bother to him. I will be using them again in the future!"

"See above. I chose Roy's on my own. It started out okay and as I said Tony was ver personable and friendly. Problem is I have spent $1682.27 and the drain was only a little improved in Spring and by the Fall this year is was making that area wet again. So unless I spend more money it will not be taken care of. He wanted me to sign up to have all our drains water jetted. This initially made sense to me. But at the least amount of another $1205 + tax , and maybe more, I don't think so. I was never planning on spending that amount of money. I mentioned about the use of a coupon not being suggested and getting the feeling that they just wanted to keep pushing for more service/money. Also, I myself wasn't out side to see the break in the pipe because it was drizzling, had had my hair done, didn't want it to get wet and was getting ready to go out. I would think they would have come to the door and said here was your problem. I just feel like I spent a lot of money and my problem isn't solved. In fact we are talking about hiring someone else to fix the problem.

"Within 3 hours T-Mark plumbing was at my house, they had to replace some plumbing and other things like water values, etc. Both service techs were great and explained the new hot water tank to me. I have used their service to open my main drains a couple times. Actually called a few places but they were the most reasonable. They did not take the coupon presented as they stated not for hot water tanks???"

"Jim, the owner of this company, responded to my call quickly and was at my house within an hour. My problem was the main drain in the basement was clogged, causing water to back up in my wash tub. Jim quickly snaked out and cleared the clogged drain pipe at a very reasonable charge. He also rerouted the pipe leading from my backup sump pump to the outside of my house. The way it was initially installed would have caused my basement to flood if it was ever activated. The final charge, again, was very reasonable. The quality of Jim's work and patience in explaining things to me was awesome! He even wrapped some kind of special tape around the end of my hose so that a new nozzle screwed on tightly. He is now my new plumber! Thanks, Jim!"

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

Snaking a drain can take as little as a few minutes for small, simple clogs, up to two hours or more for tough clogs located further down the drain line. For tougher clogs, a professional drain cleaner can likely get the job done much more quickly because they have the necessary tools and expertise. However, your drain cleaning pro might not be able to give you a firm time estimate until inspecting the clog and its surrounding plumbing.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

With a one-way cleanout, you can access your sewer line from one direction. Depending on the way it curves, a plumber can either access the side of the pipe that goes into your home or the side that goes to your yard. On the other hand, two-way cleanouts allow pros to access both sides of the sewer line, thanks to their dual-pipe design (they’re usually U-shaped).

Yes, drains are one common entry point for water bugs. However, water bugs may enter your home through various locations including doors, windows, pipes, and vents. Water bugs are drawn to the dark and moist atmosphere drains provide, and can easily find their way into your home through sewer drain pipes. You can stop water bugs from entering through drains by regularly cleaning your drains and repairing faulty drainage systems.

Water leaking through your basement floor is a good sign of a clogged drain, but another sign of a clogged basement floor drain can include unpleasant odors coming from the drain. Also, hearing gurgling noises when water drains from the basement or having other plumbing fixtures (like toilets or other drains) backing up is a good indicator.
