"

We met with Justin from Wells Septic.  He and his assistants took a look at the area of concern, trying to assess the possible reasons that might be causing this area to stay muddy.  They were the second set of eyes to look at the area, because we first had our irrigation system company see if it was caused by a leak.  Irrigation leaks were ruled out.  

Jason and Sebastian looked in the downspouts with special equipment, pulled back the sod, prodded with iron rods and checked the water meter to make sure something wasn't  causing the water to run.  We live on a spring-fed lake, so we thought perhaps the water had found its way a little further into the property.

Jason mentioned that they had previously had a customer with a wet area in the yard that appeared right behind their deck.  They could not determine the source of the water there either.  They had resolved that issue by installing a French drain.  So,  we decided that would be the first attempt at a solution to get this area dry.  

Jason and Sebastian and another employee hand dug the area about two feet down in the shape of a T.  They surrounded the specialized pipe with gravel and replaced as much sod as they could.  At the time, the sod was very wet and heavy.  It was very likely difficult to handle, so they covered the area the best they could.  A couple of weeks later, they returned to reshape the area better once the ground had dried out. 

As I write, the area is not only dry, but it is ready for our commercial mower to continue to take care of the yard without fear of losing his equipment in the bog!   

Wells Septic was very responsive and we appreciate they were experienced and able to solve the problem.  We would certainly call them again and would recommend them for similar work.

"I called Jack Woods Plumbing, and they had a cancellation for the afternoon, so were able to fit me in. The plumber called to tell me that he was on his way, and soon after he arrived, the sink was unclogged, the drain in the bathtub was adjusted so that it drained more quickly, and the plumbing under two more sinks was inspected to see if there were any leaks. The plumber was polite and professional, and without our asking, he gave us a senior discount."

"Eric called before our scheduled time to say he was finishing another project and he would arrive in 30 minutes. He was on time, looked at the clogged drain and provided options. He was able to clear the drain with a snake and finished the job in about an hour, which avoided the more expensive option to dig up and replace the drain pipe. He did a great job! I would DrainCo LLC to anyone."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

If you have a sink stopper, it can feel more challenging to clean the drain without removing it, but here are a few simple steps:

  • Pour ½ cup baking soda into the drain using a funnel

  • Pour 1 ½ cups vinegar into the drain

  • Close the sink stopper for 15–20 minutes

  • Open the drain

  • Pour 2 cups of boiling water down the drain (be cautious as boiling water can damage some types of pipes)

If the drain isn’t unclogged, repeat the process.

Snakes can occasionally enter homes through shower drains, although it’s quite rare. This can happen when they follow sewer pipes or accidentally find their way into plumbing systems. To minimize the risk, consider installing drain covers or stoppers on your shower drains. Always keep drains closed when they’re not in use, especially in areas where snakes are known to be active.

The cost to repair a main sewer line clog is about $3,110 on average. The average cost range is  $1,310 to $4,950, but it can go as low as $215 and as high as $9,300 or more. The cost factors for this repair include the severity of the clog, pipe accessibility, video inspection, removal method, permits, pipe material, labor rates in your area, and time of year. Repairs made from outside during the winter can be more difficult due to the frozen ground or during the spring if the ground is saturated from a lot of rain and snow melt.

You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. Sewer line replacement costs about $60 to $250 per linear foot.

There are a couple of things you can do to help prevent your French drain grate from clogging. First, keep yard debris clear so it doesn’t wash into the drain and clog the grate. You can also install a screen or filter over the grate to prevent large pieces of debris from entering the access point.
