"Zoom Drain was great !! Everything was explained by Rob on Friday when he came out. Service was provided the day we called due to hearing gurgleing in the kitchen sink when the toilet was flushed. Rob found a blockage in the drain box outside our house which he cleared. On Sunday we found that we were still having some brief water backup into our basement laundry tub when the bathroom toilet was flushed, Kyle came out that afternoon and determined that part of the issue was that the Municipal Sanitary Drain was running slow. Kyle even pulled the Municipal Manhole cover in the street to confirm that the water level was much higher than expected. He spent the time to make sure our drain was as clear as possible and even called our local borough office to inform them that the Municipal drain seemed to have a blockage. We saw a truck on our street this morning and were informed that a large grease plug was found in the municipal drain on the street next to ours. They cleared it on Sunday night and were checking the line upstream from where the plug was to make sure everything was clear. Thank You Kyle. Thank you Zoom Drain Norristown. Highly recommended !!"

"Company called immediately after I logged an Angi query. Technician scheduled to come out the next morning, and he turned up early in the 4 hour window. Explained the process and then cleaned out the drain efficiently. Stayed to be sure that the drain worked OK; explained their 30 day warranty, and left after cleaning up."

"This was a huge job. A complete basement waterproofing - new internal drains installed and two new sump pumps installed. The guys were great - came on time worked hard all day and cleaned up after themselves. The only negative was at the completion of work when it was time to pay the amount was less than what was originally quoted. I told the guy that and he insisted that it was what he had. I even showed him the quote on paper. I paid it - glad it was less, but a few days later got a call from the office telling me I needed to pay another $1600 (the difference between the original quoted price and at the time of service price) I told her what the guy told me and she got a little rude saying "well you knew what the quoted price was" - yeah I DID know and was prepared to pay but after install HER guy insisted it was the price he had. I wasn't trying to get out of paying but the confusion on how much it costs was with the people working there. I didn't appreciate her attitude as if I was trying to skimp out of paying. Nevertheless, I ended up with this additional payment. However, the work is supposed to be guaranteed for life. No complaints there."

"After reading through some of the prior reviews I have seen kind of a mixed bag of responses, which honestly surprises me because every time I have used Mattioni for plumbing and heating issues (I had them replace my heat pump system 3 years ago as well) they have been nothing short of extraordinary! To focus on today's job, my technician Paul M, arrived (at exactly 3:00, which was the beginning of the time window that the dispatcher quoted me in the morning, which was fantastic) to fix a leak that I had found the night before in my basement that had soaked my drop-ceiling tile. I had tried to find the leak myself last night when I discovered the moisture on the tile, but could not find any dripping water although I did see drain pipes within a 2 foot area that showed no signs of dripping, and there was nothing directly above the spot where the leak soaked the tile, which had me baffled. When Paul came over he was able to tell from the piping where my powder room fixtures were in proximity to the leak, which was a good two feet to the left, and immediately hit on the root cause of the problem being the ice maker in my kitchen refrigerator upstairs, which I was amazed by as the subfloor panels themselves did not appear to be wet (the location of the moisture was at the very corner of my basement by the dividing wall between my townhouse and my adjoining neighbor so the wooden panels did not appear to be damp, but there was a very slight gap in between where the wood ended and the concrete wall began. Paul went upstairs and pulled out the refrigerator and immediately saw moisture in the very back corner of the floor, which I did not even notice on first sight until he pointed it out. He then inspected the plastic tubing line that ran into the refrigerator for the ice machine (that I had never used in the 5 years I have owned the house) and was able to show me a pin-sized hole that was actively misting water out of it that happened to be situated directly above the gap in the floor that I mentioned earlier. Given how hard this leak was to find when I was even staring right at it is a huge credit to his expertise! My automatic assumption was that it had to be one of the pipes in the area of the basement, and I never even considered that a fixture upstairs could have been causing this, especially given the lack of moisture on the wooden floor boards! I am completely satisfied with my experience today from all aspects, and I find it interesting when I read some of the reviews posted here by others that mention how expensive their service was, which maybe Mattioni's is on the pricier side, but in my opinion you get what you pay for and I am happy with the price when it means that Mattioni employs professional and courteous technicians like Paul who you are comfortable with bringing into your home, and are able to properly identify and fix a problem the first time they come out! As I said previously, my experiences with Mattioni have always been fantastic, and I definitely plan on hiring them again when needed."

"I hired them to unclog a toilet. Got a next day appointment. Patrick was helpful and courteous in scheduling and quoting the job. Justin came early and asked questions to understand the problem and what I had already tried to clear the drain. Within 15 minutes he had the drain running. Good service at a good price. I would use them again."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

A small amount of diluted bleach is okay to pour down a garbage disposal. As part of your weekly garbage disposal maintenance, use 1 teaspoon of bleach with your concoction of ice cubes and lemon peels. Turn on the disposal and run the water until the blades chop up the ice cubes.

Any more bleach in your disposal can harden oils and greases in your drain, which can cause problems. Always wear gloves when working with bleach, and know that you really don’t need bleach at all—vinegar, baking soda, salt, and ice should do the trick.

Plumbers use a variety of tools to help unclog the toughest of drain clogs, but the most common tools they use are drain snakes and augers. They try a plunger or drain snake to start, then move to heavy-duty augers, and finally try using a hydro jetter to blast away the clog with high-pressure water. Hiring a plumber to unclog a drain costs $125 to $300, largely depending on the extent and location of the clog and which of these methods is best for clearing it.

A saturated leach field can result from various underlying issues, so it's best to call a professional septic company to diagnose and treat the problem. Depending on the cause of the saturation, potential fixes include pumping out a full septic tank, adding more bacteria to the tank, or regrading the soil to fix low spots. It may also be necessary to reroute rainwater and runoff away from the leach field using gutters, downspouts, and extenders. Once the primary issue is resolved, planting specific types of vegetation over the area can help absorb excess water. In more severe cases, you might need to install a larger septic tank or replace the leach field entirely.

Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn’t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn’t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.

The cost varies from $150 to $600, depending on the severity of the clog, pipe access, and required equipment.
