Extremely professional, knowledgeable and even impressive! I first contacted the company because we had a toilet that was not flushing properly. Sergio arrived onsite and tried multiple approaches to address the issue. After trying several things, he recommended that we put a camera into the pipes to see what was blocking the flow. His snake would only go so far and there was definitely a block. He and David arrived the following Monday with the camera and with the camera and visuals from Sergio under the house, we were able to see multiple issues. First, when Sergio got under the house (pier and beam), he immediately saw a break in the sewer line and then he moved with the camera under the house communicating with David in terms of what he was seeing. A busted pipe at the kitchen sink and multiple other issues considering 94 year old cast iron pipes under the majority of the home. Sergio was top notch in addressing the issues, photographing and taking video at each point along the way under the house. Both he and David definitely know plumbing as we watched them interact to discuss what each were seeing in the camera and under the house, discussing possible approaches for the job, and trying to figure old were sewer lines were located, etc. The assessment was that we needed to replace the cast iron pipes and this certainly was an unexpected expense. David was extremely detail oriented about the work, outlining the various options and potential issues we might encounter. He gave us worst case scenario and best case. We received a quote in less than 24 hours. David walked us through the work and even contacted our neighbor to explain to her in detail the potential work in her backyard and why access might be needed and the steps they would take to minimize damage to her yard. He promised her that he would follow-up once the work was started to make sure she understood exactly what was happening and why and to make sure all her questions were answered. Less than a week later, David and Sergio brought in a team and they moved through the work very quickly and efficiently. David understood the potential impact of us possibly having to leave the home, board five animals, etc., so he brought in extra guys to get the work done as quickly as possible which we appreciated. In the end, we did not need to go into our neighbors yard for the work. I called her to give her that update and she said - oh David has already called me to let me know. I was so impressed with this level of follow-up and detail. I have been singing Southern Plumbing's praises because we are so pleased especially with a job that quite frankly was overwhelming for us in terms of being completely unexpected, the sheer scope of the work and impact to our lives. Thank you David and Sergio. You guys are the best. If you want the best - go with Southern Plumbing hands down.

Shawn and Laurin patiently waited and worked with us on the design and answering our questions from April 2012 (when we first contacted them) until January 2013 when the work began. We had other work that needed to be done before they started (downspouts and sewer line). They always answered our questions or addressed our concerns quickly and never blinked when we made last minute changes. Shawn was always available by cell, SMS text message, email, Facebook, or Twitter. Probably the most electronically connected contractor out there. When we had a sprinkler fail, Shawn was out the next morning to fix it. When we had two plants struggling, Shawn came out the same day (Saturday) to adjust the watering level. We're impressed with the sophistication of irrigation controller they installed (its current capability and its ability to expand to 16 zones and a weather station), the high-end nature of the RPZ (backflow preventer), and the use of 8 irrigation zones on a relatively small lot to provide ultimate control and flexibility for watering. Ravenscourt even ran a zone for a future hedge in a location that needs one. Their choice of a new type of St. Augustine (Amerishade) was genius for our shady backyard. Overall it was a near perfect experience working with Ravenscourt Landscaping and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Sewer Line Repair reviews from real Angi homeowners in Alvin, TX
Hired Prominent Plumbing to replace galvanized pipes to PEX as well as total replacement of sewer lines. They were prompt and did an exceptional job. They are the only plumbers I hire. Love them!
We first called on Saturday night. Gerald was on call & from the description, he suspected it was a sewer line situation. He said he would come if we wanted but it would be OK to wait 'til Monday if we wanted to avoid $200 surcharge. We were glad that he was able to talk us off the ledge. We...

The bottom line is that I paid Abacus $6,200 to replace perfectly function cast iron pipe after they told me I had an impasse in a section of pipe when in fact there was no impasse. The Details: I had a blockage that was causing sewage to backup into a shower. Abacus unblocked the clog. Then...
We had a minor pipe burst emergency and while we could get the water off to the entire house that left us without water. He came on Saturday but the repair was not a quick one and it was fairly late when he got here. That was not his fault though. I had waited on an appliance repair man to...

"I purchased my first water softener and reverse osmosis water purifier 18 years ago when we first built our house. We loved both! But nothing lasts forever and both needed to be replaced. Luckily, I still had the paperwork from the original installation and I knew who to call. I received the same great service and attention as I had 18 years ago. Both the office staff and installers were extremely professional and courteous. The installers were very good about explaining everything…how the equipment worked and how to maintain it. A big plus for me, is they were very respectful of my property. They left everything clean and organized before leaving."

We’ll explain everything and provide upfront, honest pricing options, so you feel confident from start to finish. We only hire the very best craftsman and give them the very best training and resources. All of our work is backed by the integrity of the John Moore name.
"recently called John Moore Services for what should have been a simple plumbing issue — a clogged bathroom sink connected to my air conditioner drain line. I reached out after seeing their TV commercial promoting clogged sink service for “about $69.” What I quickly discovered is that this advertised rate applies to an extremely narrow and unadvertised category of sinks that almost no real-world situation meets. My straightforward, less-than-20-minute fix was quoted at over $600 to snake. This is an outrageous markup for such a basic job. As a former small business owner, I find these tactics troubling. This is a textbook example of bait-and-switch advertising — grabbing attention with a low price, then upselling with inflated charges once the customer is committed. Practices like this harm consumers and tarnish the reputation of the many honest, hardworking service providers in our community. Shame on you, John Moore Services. My strong recommendation: Do Not Use."

FAQs for sewer line repair projects in Alvin, TX
The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.
The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
