"Less than a year ago I had work done. They replaced all the outside water hydrant system. They were told to use the best supplies and not spare any cost to do it the best. Like their own. And they did with the exception of the post they drove to support above ground hydrant system. I was expecting a T-post, but they installed a flimsy piece of thin metal to the 2 foot out of ground pipe for hydrant, which is 10 times it's size. Not impressed. They were called about it and said they would go look at it and never responded again. Why would they? They had been paid. Now less than a year later it's leaking again. I hired another company, because they wouldn't return my calls when I called them first. They find the fittings to the old pvc into the new flex plumbing in the bottom leaking. New company hired confirmed materials used were all good quality stuff, but there best guess was Buck's installed too tight. So the best materials doesn't always to the best job; if you don't have someone that knows and has the experience of what they are doing. Just saying the labor price may be more with an experience business, but in the end it could be worth hiring someone who knows what they are doing. I regret hiring Buck's the first time. The lady on the phone isn't the nicest person to deal with either. Not hateful, but lacks understanding and care."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It can take anywhere from half an hour to a few hours to fix a main line clog, depending on the cause and severity of it. The job should not take more than a day to complete. Keep in mind that the main line is not the same as your home’s sewer lines (which connect to the main line and run to your house). Your city is responsible for any clogs or damage to the main line itself.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.

Your sewer pro will take about an hour to complete your sewer line camera inspection. However, if your home does not have cleanout access and the pro needs to remove the toilet to access the sewer line, the time to completion will take longer. Note that this estimated time does not include the time for repair, drain cleaning, or any other services you may need.
