It went well both times. They unplugged the kitchen sink drain and fixed the leaks. The sink drains fine now. The toilet is working perfectly. They took their time to do everything the right way. They definitely do not cut corners. Both times, they had to run out and get parts for the job....
Eric cleared an exterior drain that was clogged with roots and sediment. I received same day service and the work performed was very thorough. Many thanks!

The plumber snaked the drain from the kitchen down and from the basement up. He had to use a mechanical snake after the manual snake did not clear the drain. After the drain was cleared he replaced all of the plumbing under the sink because many joints were mismatch and leaking. The...

We were satisfied. They forgot to stake a tree, which was another thing we expected them to do. We had to purchase the French drain materials separately, so I am not entirely sure we got a great deal.

"Very well. Mr. Shuleva took a whole year before the project was started, but once he got his workers in place, it went very well. In addition to creating a swale that directed floodwaters away from our house, he tied our drainpipes into a drain that took the water away from the house and installed a french drain (I think that's the correct term) around the retaining wall under our prized back porch. He also did some extras, including giving me two nice shrubs (some sort of hydrangea, I forget the name), replanting a dogwood and some heritage lilacs that he had to move in order to do the rest of the work, and reseeding another part of the yard. We get compliments on the work. Looks great, and the grass is coming in nicely."

French Drains questions, answered by experts
Preventing water accumulation involves regular inspections, maintaining effective drainage systems, ensuring proper roof maintenance, and taking preventive measures against heavy rainfall or floods.
If your dishwasher keeps filling with water at the bottom but doesn’t fill into the sink, the issue is likely due to a blockage within the dishwasher or drain. Regularly clean your dishwasher filter basket to ensure it’s not clogged with food, and run a vinegar rinse periodically if you have hard water to remove limescale buildup.
The frequency with which a French drain clogs depends on various factors, such as the amount of debris that enters the pipe, the quality of the French drain installation, the type of grate and filter used, and how often it is maintained. That’s why it’s recommended to clean your French drain at least once a year, whether it is clogged or not. This can prevent clogs and increase the lifespan of your drain.
To unclog the drain pipe, remove the machine's drain hose from the pipe or sink drain, being careful to contain any water in it. Next, use a plunger for sink drains or a plumbing snake for a wall drain. Test the repair by pouring a small amount of water into the pipe before trying it with a laundry load.
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.
