"Superior Plumbing did a great job. I chose Superior based on Angie's List reviews. Fortunately they led me in a good direction and so I have the opportunity to now add my honest review as well. Steve (the plumber from Superior) was at my residence within an hour of my call to fix a severely plugged sink drain line. I spent hrs with a power snake the day before and couldn't clear it. This was in early April with Covid lockdown going on. Steve was wearing all protective equipment (mask, gloves, shoe covers) and was very courteous and conscientious at this difficult time. This was reassuring to me. Steve was very knowledgeable and clearly explained everything to me and was just excellent in every way! He was able to clear both lines with two types of machines (took some time due to the bad plug up) and also replaced the bad pipe section and did a great job. He added an additional larger clean out tap as well which was a great idea in looking out for the customer. Cost was very reasonable and more than fair. Steve's professionalism, skill, knowledge, courteous polite nature, and genuine concern for customer safety and satisfaction is why I highly recommend Superior Plumbing. Steve was also very attentive to ensure everything was clean following the job. Great job Superior Plumbing, and thank you Steve for the excellent work you did! I highly recommend this plumbing company based on my excellent experience with Steve's visit to correct multiple plumbing problems in just a few hours. The fast response by Superior coming out so soon was also appreciated. I trust this firm based on this experience and its great knowing who to call should plumbing work be needed. I thank Angie's List too and the customer reviews for steering me to this very competent, customer focused, trustworthy plumbing company (Superior Plumbing)!"

"My sub pump went out Anthony and Brandon came to replace it. Notice that there was a leak in the wall where it drained out. They went outside and actually dug up. Drain found the league that the pipe broke and repaired it for me very good job. Thank you, you guys."

"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.

"They did a great job but when I would not spend 13,000 to do drain tile on top of the sub-pump they would not return my call to finish repairing two more cracks."

"Previous occupants of the house were flushing anything and everything down the pipes. A broken riser was the result from 4 failed attempts at snaking done by other plumbers, whom I do not wish to shame. I finally called the right guys, with the right tools and knowledge to take care of the problem once and for all. They were efficient and very professional. They thanked me for allowing them to do my plumbing even. Just call them and skip the giant headache. Their prices are fair and completely justified. Or call to book a quote! Thank me later."

"Cellino techs performed the work as scheduled. However, they could not remove the blockage, which was determined to be at the street connection to the bubbler piping. Their boroscope was not working either (I wanted to go in from the street side and see what was blocking the piping).. They told me they were hitting something "hard" because the end of their auger on the snake came back "shiny" (which turned out to be totally erroneous). They wanted $1600 to dig out at the street and fix the bubbler pipe. Ultimately, when the pipe was fixed by the Town of Amherst, it was observed that small diameter tree roots completely clogged about 12 inches of the 4" diameter drain piping. I feel that Cellino should have known this was a town issue (based upon the blockage location), their auger should have been able to cut through the small diameter roots, and the price I was quoted to dig up the bubbler pipe was exorbitant. Ultimately, I did most of the digging myself to expose the drain piping in a little over 1 hour. The Town of Amherst finished the repair and replaced all of the dirt in another 90 minutes."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, frozen pipes can prevent a toilet from working correctly. If the pipes are frozen, water cannot flow, which means your toilet tank won't be able to refill after a flush. This will prevent the toilet from flushing again. Depending on which lines are frozen, the ice can also block the drain pipe, preventing water from flushing away.

As a temporary workaround, you can manually add water to the tank for each flush. To clear a frozen drain pipe, you can try filling the toilet bowl or tank with warm water and flushing to help thaw the ice. However, the best long-term solution is to unfreeze the pipes to get your toilet back in working order.

Professionals use augers, hydrojetting equipment, and cameras for precise clearing and inspection.

No, you should not see water in a sewer cleanout. If you do, it could indicate that you have a block or leak in your main sewer line—which can cause sewage to back up inside your home and potentially flood your yard. Your best bet is to call a local sewer cleaner if you notice any water or sewage around your cleanout.

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.

To keep window wells from filling up with water, you need to stay on top of maintenance. Remove debris as it fills up, and regularly loosen the gravel at the base if it’s become compacted. You can also reslope your yard to make sure water flows away from the window well (and your home’s foundation), and you can even install a window well cover to prevent debris from building up. Installing an actual drainpipe at the base of the well can also prevent window well drainage problems.
