"Jared was awesome. From the initial phone call through the end of the job he was very professional and courteous. Assessed the problem, took the time to explain to me exactly what he planned on doing, and went over the possible outcomes (good and bad). Got right to work and had the drain clear in no time. 5 star experience all the way around and would absolutely recommend him to anyone who needs a plumber. Hopefully I won’t need a plumber again any time soon, but I know who I’ll call if I do."

"I recently hired Woodys Drain Service for a plumbing issue, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service. They responded quickly, arrived on time, and were professional and courteous throughout the visit. The plumber, Jeff, diagnosed the problem efficiently and explained everything in a clear and honest manner. The repair was completed the same day, and the price was fair with no hidden fees. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and respect for my home — they even cleaned up the area afterward. I highly recommend them for any plumbing needs and will definitely use them again."

"Hard working father and son. Responded to my urgent need to repair collapsed sump pump drainage line including coordination with utilities and town. Excavated and installed new line below grade. Installed a new pump with appropriate horsepower rating, all in lousy weather. Highly recommended."

"I have used them for two years. They charge me depending on the service. I have paid $300 for normal plumbing issues, like clearing the drain; etc. They are quick to come out. However, if it is a large job, they normally charge twice as much as the other plumbers. So, they are very expensive. I do not think I will use them again in the future. "

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

Costs vary by severity and access requirements. Typical pricing ranges from $100 to $350, increasing with complexity or for emergency services.

Common drain issues include slow-running drains, whether in a sink or shower, clogged drains, a bad smell, and water backing up into a sink, shower, or bathtub. Causes range from hair, grease, roots, or toilet paper clogging the drainpipes to flooding outside the home, which prevents sewer lines from draining properly.

There are several common signs that your main sewer line may be clogged. Key indicators include multiple fixtures in your home draining slowly, gurgling sounds coming from drains or toilets, and water backing up into showers, sinks, or toilets. You might also notice water backing up from the plumbing system's drain cleanout, water in your basement drain, or unexplained wet patches on your lawn. Foul odors, such as the smell of raw sewage or rotten eggs, are another common symptom. The most reliable way to confirm a main sewer line clog is to hire a professional plumber to perform a camera inspection.

Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.
