"Great! John, the owner was super helpful and nice on the phone. Eased all our concerns. The crew, Phil and Tim, showed up right on time and were able to locate the service caps in the lawn in 10 minutes. They showed me clearly how full the tanks were and clearly explained the problem and the solution. The prices quoted were very fair and there were no surprises. It took around 90 minutes. The job was all done outdoors and when they left you would never know it was done. Very neat and professional. The odors, etc we had were gone and we noticed the drains all flowing more freely. Exactly as they said. So glad we had this done before it became a serious and ugly problem inside the house. We highly recommend Priority Cesspool Sewer and Drain. Thank you!"

"It cost me $450+tax to clear the drain, which took less than half hour. I admit it was my ignorance that I did not ask specifically how much would be involved. I assumed they would charge more or less what the other pros told me. Mistake! They could have told me though. The technician was good and courteous, and he fixed my problem."

"The guys at DrainRX are the best. Living in an older house in Rockville Centre with old plumbing that easily clogs up, I have had to call them three times for three different drains, and every time John got in touch with me immediately, they came as soon as they could, and resolved the issue quickly. They're honest workers who only charge what is necessary, and they appreciate repeat customers and take an interest in getting to know you and your house. Recommend 10/10."

"Called Draino Plumbing & Drain, they responded to clear main drain line. Tom took the time to explain the process and ran the snake twice until he was satisfied the line was clear. I will call these guys again if I need the service."

"Alex and his team did a great job at unclogging my bathtub. For a long time water was not draining properly. While they were at it they also discovered a leaking pipe and fixed it as well. They are expert professionals who I truly recommend. I will keep their contact for the future."

"Excellent Plumbing and Heating arrived on time (good communication) and had to reset the toilet and replace that water valve, and then to turn off the main water line to replace that valve. Juan and Dimitri did a great job. Willing to work with you on pricing depending on scope of work to be done. Highly recommend."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Grease buildup, tree roots, and foreign objects often cause blockages. Regular maintenance prevents major issues.

The first rule of plumbing is nothing but water, toilet paper, number one, and number two go down the drain. 

To prevent clogs, get yourself:

  • A compast pail where you can clean plates, drain grease, and toss scraps and paper towels. 

  • Drain screens for the shower, tub, and bathroom sink to stop hair, jewelry, toys, etc. from going down the drain.

  • Trash cans for everything that shouldn’t go down the drain, like dental floss, hygiene products, and cat litter.

P.S.: If you do drop your priceless ring down the drain, take a deep breath, and then follow these steps to retrieve jewelry from your drain.

Professional plumbers use many high-grade chemicals to unclog drains. Many use hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid, when it comes to extreme blockages. 

Chemical drain cleaners can work to clear clogs in pipes, but their use should be approached with caution. These harsh chemicals can damage pipes over time, and they can also harm the environment. Use them sparingly and consider alternative methods such as using a plunger or a drain snake. If you have concerns about a persistent clog, it's best to consult a professional who can safely and effectively address the issue without causing further damage to your plumbing system.
