"Patrick showed up on time and was extremely patient and helpful with all of my questions. On top of the work I needed done, he also straightened up some poor drain work that was done in the past. He looked at some issues I am having with our bathroom shower and told me how to get some of the parts warrantied to save money. Once I have that squared away I will be calling Do It Right Plumbing to come back and do that work as well."

"The crew was always very courteous and cleaned up every day. They worked around my schedule when I could not be there in person. The completed jobs included a tiled shower, repairing ceiling in kitchen and laundry rooms and then painting them, installing pendant lights in kitchen and fixing tub drain. All top notch work."

"Ron responded quickly when I had a water leak in my basement from a previous french drain that was done in 1989. Ron's sons were prompt, efficient and explained everything. They cleaned the drain, sump hole and the sediment under the freezer as well as fixing the problem area. They also honored the original warranty due to the fact that their father did the original work when he owned the "Sure-Way"!!! I appreciate their honesty, their workmanship and work ethic!!! Thank you for a job well done!!"

"R Davies Construction delivered a flawless job that merits nothing less than an A+. They recently installed a 120 foot outdoor French drain on our property, and their execution was a masterclass in efficiency and professionalism. They arrived promptly, communicated with us clearly, and worked with meticulous attention to detail- and were also super friendly! What could have been a chaotic prose of mud and disruption was instead transformed into a beautifully structured, clean, and functional landscape. If you are looking for a contractor that understands the syntax of hard work and structural integrity, R Davies Construction is the definitive choice. Highly recommended!"

"Great. They did the work in the scope of the estimate and what we discussed. They did a nice job, they were very neat, very polite, and cleaned up when they were done. I would highly recommend them and called them again for a fall clean up."

"I asked for an estimate on some significant bathroom repairs related to long term structural water damage to the bathroom floor and sub-floor. The appointment setters were super-friendly and accommodated my schedule. I live 750 miles away and was only going to be available a few days while I visitied my Mom who lives in my house. The estimator was extremely knowledgeable, educated me regarding a variety options and things to be sure to ask for in my other estimates. He even went so far as to indicate that given the nature of the repairs that I might do better with a smaller contractor in terms of price. He followed up with me by phone and mail with just the right frequency. When all was said and done the Woodford quote was actually the lowest and best value for contractors of any ignificant size. I ultimately chose an independant contractor who was introduced to us through church and completed the job at a much lower price than Woodford could compete with, however I would have no problem whatsoever recommending Woodford, and would definately use them for larger jobs."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

A saturated leach field can result from various underlying issues, so it's best to call a professional septic company to diagnose and treat the problem. Depending on the cause of the saturation, potential fixes include pumping out a full septic tank, adding more bacteria to the tank, or regrading the soil to fix low spots. It may also be necessary to reroute rainwater and runoff away from the leach field using gutters, downspouts, and extenders. Once the primary issue is resolved, planting specific types of vegetation over the area can help absorb excess water. In more severe cases, you might need to install a larger septic tank or replace the leach field entirely.

The cost to clean a sewer line is about $370, ranging from about $190 to $550 on average. The specific cleaning method and the problem's severity will impact the project's overall cost. Some of the most common sewer line cleaning methods include:

  • Snaking or rodding: $100–$250

  • Hydrojetting: $350–$600

  • Chemical treatments: $600–$1,000

  • Repair or replacement: $1,000–$7,500

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

A bit of water in the bowl can help unclog a toilet, especially if you're using a plunger. However, if the bowl is full to the brim, you'll need to strap on gloves and remove some of the wastewater in a cup or container so it doesn't overflow when you try to unblock the pipe. If you're concerned about it filling further, manually close the flapper in the toilet tank or turn off the water supply to the toilet.

It is okay to use a drain auger on a toilet, just make sure you are using the correct tip size. The auger is a plumbing snake with a protective sleeve to protect the porcelain toilet bowl from getting scratched. Using too large of an auger can cause the snake to loop back and damage the inside of the drain and plumbing.
