"Had a backup a few days before and wanted to determine if it was a simple clog or cesspool related. They sent out a tech (Jimmy) the same day. He located both cesspools and walked me through my options. He was honest and patient, answering all my questions along the way."

"We called Drain RX, on a Sunday, after noticing our basement was flooded and seemed to be coming from the toilet bowl (thank you toddlers lol). Victor called us back, came soon after, and diagnosed the problem. He had us fixed up and back on track in no time!! Super professional and we can not thank him enough!!"

"These people responded almost immediately to my request to clear a drain blockage. When the drain clogged again two days later, they came back immediately and snaked another part of the system successfully curing the problem. The revisit and work was free of charge. They even apologized for not permanently clearing the drain the first time. They were extremely nice and courteous and I would recommend them highly for any plumbing or sewage problem."

"Mario of Mario’s Faucet and Toilet Repairs in Bayshore NY was courteous and efficient. He cleared the clogged pipe and got the plumbing back in working order. He’s been doing this for 10 years so he’s very experienced. I think the price was very fair for the work done. I would highly recommend him for plumbing and drain issues. Thank you Mario!"

"I thought they did a great job; they were very professional and courteous, if there was anything I did not like was that the initial job was to unclog the main sewer line, but could not do it, they still charged me $275, in the past I only paid from $75 - $150 when they unclogged the line, they charged so much money for not unclogging, I think they should have bypast that charge, I did pay $9500, to replace the main sewer line and trap, which I'm ok with."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Jack is a straight shooter and goes over the problems he sees and only positive solutions. Jack is personable and tried to save you money versus over sell unnecessary improvements. We need our foundation patched for leaks and his crew went over and beyond the work we thought we needed. Waterproofed our outside issues and then waterproofed the inside with paint. They cleaned up our crawl spaces as well as under the basement stairs. Jack even threw in a fire extinguisher and 2 water detectors. Great man, proud of what he does and loves to please his customers. HIghly recommend. Oh, his crew keep everything clean and when they left you would never have known they dug into our driveway and backyard to install leader drains from our gutters."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and specialized equipment requirements. Hire professionals for effective clearing.

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.

Plumbers use a variety of tools to help unclog the toughest of drain clogs, but the most common tools they use are drain snakes and augers. They try a plunger or drain snake to start, then move to heavy-duty augers, and finally try using a hydro jetter to blast away the clog with high-pressure water. Hiring a plumber to unclog a drain costs $125 to $300, largely depending on the extent and location of the clog and which of these methods is best for clearing it.

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.

When you put baking soda and vinegar down the drain, they chemically react and help break down clogs. It’s not going to work for every type of clog, however. For example, it’s not the best way to get rid of grease buildup. For grease, you should try boiling water and white vinegar instead.
