"We were relieved to learn that we had a blocked drain and not something worse. The owner used a high powered snake to unblock the drain and tested the water flow several times to make sure everything was draining properly. Very grateful that this company responded to our request so quickly! Would absolutely use them again."
"They installed sump pump and interior drainage system quickly and professionally. The workers clearly had a lot of experience and worked seemlessly. They also discovered a downspout/ drain line problem that they corrected for me. I would hire them again."
"These guy were fantastic! Erik was on top of things the whole time. We had a exterior French Drain installed. They were professional and cleaned up like they were never here. With all this rain we have had it was a true test of the work done. They passed with flying colors. I cannot recommend this company enough. Thank you to Erik, and to all the guys!"
"Gary responded immediately to our need for a new gas service line to be installed. He and his crew completed the work promptly and the gas company was able to come out that very evening and re-start our service. Gary was very attentive to our situation and helpful in answering our questions. Quality work! I would highly recommend him!"
"Very professional staff and crew. Installed 48" internal French drain with sump pump. Job completed in 1 day. Professional workmanship. Highly recommended."
"Prior to moving into our house about 10 years ago, the previous owners had used Advanced Basement Solutions to have an internal french drain, sump pump and vapor barrier installed. As it had been about 10 years which is the average life of a sump pump, we decided it was time to have things checked out. Called and lady who answered was very polite, she actually got my information so the lifetime warranty could be transferred over to us and then said we could schedule a "Healthy Basement Check" and said what all that entailed. She said she would have to check scheduling and get back to me. I got a call back the next day and scheduled it for the following week and gave me a 2 hour window of when they would be out. On the day of the appointment, Chris showed up promptly and I showed him downstairs, he looked everything over and we worked to run a test on the pump which had no issues. He did recommend a high water sensor which said I could pick up myself and did recommend a dehumidifier as we did have a bit higher humidity. He answered all of our questions and we even walked around outside as he saw a couple spot inside with a little dampness and gave us some tips and things to keep an eye on. Best part is I was educated on how the pump works and what to do in the event of an issue and had peace of mind knowing that when it does go, the first pump replacement was covered so the money I spent for the checkup was worth it"
"Installed my French Drain: Very responsive, hard working crew, took extra steps to try and restore my yard to pre-project condition by hauling top soil and used my seed; answered all my questions / knowledgeable,.. and most important.. it works!"
Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts
To keep your toilet from clogging, you can use less toilet paper. You can also use a liquid toilet plunger to break up any clogs and keep the toilet drain and pipes clear. When it comes to a clogged toilet, the best route is prevention by using less toilet paper and making sure the mechanisms are all working properly.
A plumber can get to the bottom of your smelly drain and clean it with specialized jets, hoses, and drain-safe cleaning solutions. It is also smart to call in a plumber if you suspect your drain smell is coming from a stubborn clog or even a leaky pipe.
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.
DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and specialized equipment requirements. Hire professionals for effective clearing.
Simple blockages can be cleared using household plungers or manual snakes, provided no severe plumbing issues exist.
