I chose them because they had a larger company with ins. However, they came in with a huge semi to remove the large intact tree (knowing they could get about $2000) and I came home early and saw it so they thought they could sneak away with it. Because it was so large, when it fell, it caved in my driveway which had a large cement drain under it. Then when digging out my stump, they hit my water line and it was gushing out for hours. We had to run out and stop them because they almost hit our gas line. They did fix the problems (but with a cheaper plastic drain tunnel) and he was very unfriendly. All of this could have been avoided if he would have been honest about the tree. I would have told him the ground couldn't support the weight. He was not honest about the lumber and also put his employees and my family in danger by not checking on water, gas, and electric lines underground. I know local lumber yard owners and he made about $2000 from the lumber and $1500 from me paying for his services (we were without water for 3 days from this and unable to park in our driveway). The price included stump removal but he was unable to remove the stump do to underground lines, so we were over charged.

Due to being close to the weekend i asked if they could return on the following Monday and they did so. They took up deck boards and hand dug up the pipes where we discovered they were 90% clogged all the way up to the house. They put in pvc to replace the broken up clay tile pipes and combine all the plumbing exiting the house to one line. They then cover up the pipes and replaced my deck boards back and did all of this with out asking for a penny up front!

In about 20 minutes, the plumber walked down downstairs into our basement and showed me that the snake is literally dangling out of the pipe entirely. He said that the pipe was busted and he brought in his supervisor/manager to come give me a quote. About an hour later, he arrived and spent a whopping 5 minutes glancing at the problem and said the entire drain from the kitchen sink to the basement would need replacing, including cutting/repairing drywall and cutting into kitchen cabinets. He came up with a $989 quote just standing there. Being the skeptical person I am, I had another company come out and give another estimate. First company to arrive was Jarboe's. Andrew, the technician, spent over and hour investigating the problem and found that Dauenhauer snaked into a vent pipe, which was just disconnected and that is why it was dangling out of the pipe - the real drain pipe was never touched. Jarboe's fixed our intial problem and even reconnected the vent pipe for a 1/4 of the cost, without having to rip through drywall. The fact that Dauenhauer didn't even investigate the problem and tried to get almost $1000 out of me for work that didn't even need to be done is what what irritates me the most. We now have a fully functional kitchen drain, thanks to Jarboe's Plumbing."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ky/louisville/dauenhauer-plumbing-reviews-283074.htm"},"position":9}]}

FAQs for french drain service projects in New Boston, OH
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The cost to install a drain pipe is $600 on average, but the total can range between $150 and $2,000. Some cost factors that influence your project price include the type of drain, the area’s accessibility, the proximity of existing drain lines, and whether you’re installing a new drain or replacing an old one. Replacing the p-trap or s-trap under a single fixture will usually cost around $150, while replacing a main drain pipe can cost well over $2,000.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
