"The owner came out the week before to look at a circuit that would not reset and some light switches that were not functioning properly. While inspecting the panel he noted its age and the unavailability of parts. We were aware that the service should be upgraded as we had other quotes from about 5+ years ago. He was thorough and fully explained what would be involved and
provided an immediate quote. The quote seemed reasonable. Based upon past quotes it was higher, but we were also having some additional outlet and light switch work done. We agreed and he scheduled the work for a week later.
We received a confirmation call from the office the day before they were to arrive. The two workers arrived at the scheduled time. They were friendly and explained what they were going to do, what they needed to see and the expected time frames. They set to work. They were neat, orderly and appeared to concentrate closely on their work ? a good quality for electricians.
The installation required moving the height of the electrical box on the outside of the house as well as installing a new riser (the pipe that goes through the roof that the electrical wires attach to from the telephone/electric poles). This required drilling large holes through the roof and overhang. They were meticulous in this process as our overhangs are vinyl covered so they were
careful to cut the hole as precisely as possible and carefully finished the flashing and sealing of the riser on the roof. As a side note, another contractor that was at our house later wanted to know who did our electrical installation as they remarked what good work had been done on the riser install ? they said they see a lot of sloppy jobs, but this one was very professional.
At one point the lead electrician came to us and said that in the install of the new main service wire into the house, the outer casing had been nicked. He said that he felt it was best to replace it even though a patch of the plastic coating is the acceptable remedy. He said that the longevity of replacement wire versus a patch was more assured, but they would have to come back
the next morning to do that replacement, which they did, and at the appointed time. At the end of the first day, they cleaned up everything, all of the wire bits and casings where the new panel was installed, all of the wires and old parts outside.  Then they also went room by room and tested all of the outlets to identify which circuit they were on and did a detailed labeling of our new panel.
We would highly recommend them. They were professional, they were knowledgeable, they worked steady and deliberately, they cleaned up, they showed up when they said they would, they took the time to explain the new panel and as mentioned above, they were competitively priced.

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.

Bleach isn’t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn’t useful in this situation because it won’t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda.

Thankfully, it’s pretty rare to find a rat in your toilet. It’s more likely in larger cities with big sewer systems that can be feeding grounds for rats, but even then, you still shouldn’t fret. 

“I wouldn’t worry too much about rats coming up through the sewers,” Bradshaw says. “I’d say only one out of a thousand rodent customers we get actually have this problem. And of the 20 or some customers that have had this happen, they’ve all only had just one rat come up this way.”

In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don’t technically need a license, as they aren’t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They’ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your plumber’s professional licenses before hiring.

Avoid flushing non-degradable items, schedule regular inspections, and address minor clogs promptly.
