"My problem was water coming in around a door in the finished section of my basement when it rains. The door opens to a concrete stairwell that leads up to a set of Bilco doors, then to the outside. I’ve had several water proofers give me their opinion and an estimate. Most wanted to install a French drain under my basement floor and a sump pump for $9,000+. My concerns with this is that water was not coming up from the ground, but down from the bilco doors. A.J. from A.J. Waterproofing came to look at my problem the same day I called him. He determined that rain water was coming in from the front of the bilco doors. His solution was to seal and water proof the cracks/holes/voids in the stairwell, inside and out and place a cement slab in front of and partially around the bilco doors on the outside. In addition, he installed an optional sump pump for added insurance. Total was $3,000. A.J. and his crew arrived on time, all were polite and courteous, and completed the job in one day. When the work was complete, everything was cleaned up to a cleaner state than it was before they arrived. Seriously, there was not a speck of dirt in the stairwell or in my basement…and they were all throughout my basement. My wife and I were very impressed at this. So far, no water and the stairwell has been completely dry. Overall, A.J. diagnosed the specific problem, proposed a reasonable solution, and completed work in a very professional way. At no point, did I ever feel like he was just trying to BS me. From start to finish, I felt a level of trust and comfort that is all too uncommon these days. I highly recommend A.J. Waterproofing to anyone needing this type of work."

"They performed the work quickly and the guy was nice but the charge was 480 for a clearing a basement accessible drain. Got quotes from other for 150-350~ for clearing the same drain but wouldn’t come out as soon as DE plumbing pros. Seems very overpriced and wouldn’t use again unless I absolutely had to. Their customer service was good and theirs plumbers professional."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

If the drain is frozen, the pipes connecting to the washing machine are likely frozen. If the hot water trick doesn’t also unfreeze the washing machine pipes, you can gently apply heat with a hair dryer on the lowest setting. Start at the end of the pipe closest to the faucet to prevent pressure from building in the pipes, and make sure the faucet is open to drain the water as it melts.

Coke and other sodas do clean a clogged drain, so this is one of those urban myths that has some truth behind it. Coke and similar sodas are caustic and will provide some cleaning power to your drains. However, the power of soda pales in comparison to dedicated cleaners or even baking soda.

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

If your kitchen is flooding, first turn off the water supply and electricity before entering the room. Next, focus on immediate flood control by cleaning up any standing water with a sump pump or wet-dry vacuum to prevent long-term water damage to your home. Open your windows and run any dehumidifiers you have handy. Finally, call a professional plumber to help find the source of the flood and repair it.

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
