We are a family owned and operated sewer and drain cleaning business. We also do minor plumbing repairs and sewer line excavation.

"We had a clogged sewer line. I regret calling this company -- my worst experience with a repair service. The first plumber couldn't find the house trap to clear the sewer line. A second plumber came hours later and couldn't find it, either. This guy was rude. He suggested calling a third person with a camera for an extra $350 and about $750 of total charges. I declined and just offered to pay what we owed for their time, which at that point he said was $250. Instead, he said he'd keep looking for the line, without telling me that he would charge hundreds of dollars per hour to wander around the yard. They eventually found it and cleared the line. In the process, though, they took off two boards from our back steps. They pried off one board and broke the screws, leaving it unsecured. They didn't properly screw down the second board when they were done, either, so now the steps are uneven. In the end, he charged me $710, anyway, despite not bringing the camera, which was supposed to be the most expensive step. All around unsatisfactory."

"Excellent. Neftali was able to tell me that it was the pump on the dishwasher and not the plumbing. Assisted in purchasing a dishwasher that would fit in the existing space. Also was able to fix doors on the freezer and refrigerator. He was professional and did not get upset when my golden retriever wanted to assist him."

"we've been delivering quality heating oil to area families for over 50 years. What is surprising is the number of people we talk to each and every day that are not aware of the many valuable products and services we offer. We offer top-quality heating oil that is free of impurities, burns cleanly, and contains special additives to make your heating equipment run more efficiently."

"Absolutely horrible experience, the installers did a terrible job, they made a mess of the house, took things from drawers, we were missing medication, jewelry, I even lost my ski suit! Don’t hire these people whatever you do, worst mistake ever! Also, the owner who was a fairly miserable gentleman kept hitting on my wife and touching her shoulder. It made her very uncomfortable! Beware, hide your valuables, make sure your children are safe, then go ahead and hire them."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Thankfully, it’s pretty rare to find a rat in your toilet. It’s more likely in larger cities with big sewer systems that can be feeding grounds for rats, but even then, you still shouldn’t fret. 

“I wouldn’t worry too much about rats coming up through the sewers,” Bradshaw says. “I’d say only one out of a thousand rodent customers we get actually have this problem. And of the 20 or some customers that have had this happen, they’ve all only had just one rat come up this way.”

Most commercial liquid drain cleaners work in 15 to 30 minutes. Consult the label on the bottle for additional instructions or time suggestions to prevent damage to your drainpipes. Alternative solutions such as baking soda, salt, white vinegar, and/or boiling water can take longer since they are less harsh than liquid drain cleaners.

It is generally safe to stay in a house with sewer gas for a short time, even though short-term exposure is unpleasant. However, prolonged inhalation can cause headaches, nausea, or respiratory irritation. High levels of methane—which is in sewer gas—can pose an explosion risk in enclosed spaces. Ventilate the area and call a pro if you smell sewer gas or experience related health symptoms.

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

It might be possible to dissolve hair caught in a drain, but it’s usually not a good way to go about clearing the clog. Some sources mention that baking soda and vinegar can do the trick, but this won’t actually dissolve the hair. The hydrochloric acid in drain cleaners can dissolve the hair over time, but it will much more quickly destroy your plumbing pipes and leave you with bigger issues. The best way to remove hair is to do it manually with a drain snake or to have a plumber use an auger to pull clogs out.
