Q: Is bleach good for sewer lines?

• <div><p>Bleach isn&rsquo;t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn&rsquo;t useful in this situation because it won&rsquo;t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda. </p></div>

Q: What are the typical costs of clearing a drain block?

• <div><p>Costs vary by severity and access requirements. Typical pricing ranges from $100 to $350, increasing with complexity or for emergency services.</p></div>

Q: What happens when you put baking soda and vinegar down the sink drain?

• <div><p>When you put baking soda and vinegar down the drain, they chemically react and help break down clogs. It&rsquo;s not going to work for every type of clog, however. For example, it&rsquo;s not the best way to get rid of grease buildup. For grease, you should try boiling water and white vinegar instead.</p></div>

Q: What is a biodegradable drain cleaner and how does it differ from a conventional one?

• <div><p>Biodegradable drain cleaners use naturally derived ingredients, such as baking soda, vinegar, and boiling water, which bacteria and other microbes can break down. Unlike conventional cleaners that rely on corrosive bleach (sodium hydroxide), biodegradable options are gentler on fixtures and less harmful to the environment. Because they don't release harmful gasses, they are also safer to use, especially in households with children, and do not require the same safety precautions as bleach-based products.</p></div>

Q: How often should you hydro jet your sewer line?

• <div><p>As a preventative measure, hydro jetting should be done every one to two years. However, the best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age and condition of your pipes, how prone they are to clogging, how often the sewer line is used, and the type of waste disposed of in the system. If you frequently experience clogs or are unsure, it's best to ask a licensed plumber for a recommendation specific to your plumbing system.</p></div>

We've spent 28 years active duty in the Air Force with countless professional moves. This last move with Round Table was, by far, the best experience we've had with any movers. The packing was exceptional. Organized, well labeled, not a single thing broken. The team was so nice! Very respectful...

"FSS did a fantastic job stabilizing our foundation. It took two weeks to complete the work. They drove the pipes 40' before they found solid ground. They did discover we had a water leak in two of our bathrooms(toilet & shower) most likely this caused the 4" drop. We should have done this more than 10 years ago but my husband was in denial. Robert was the foreman on our house and we could not have asked for a better person. Be sure to ask for Robert. We went with FSS because they were by far the least expensive and not as pushy as the others who came out and gave us quotes. My husband end up going by their warehouse to inspect the product before we made our decision. He is a farm boy who can fix anything but I refused to let him tackle this project. He was happy with the product and I was happy with the end results. My flower beds look just as they did before the job started. They came in like Ninjas; did the work and left without a trace. We are very happy and have already gave their number to two of our friends."

"The Basement Kings finished their LARGE job this morning, and I can’t praise them enough! They had a long, difficult job, but no complaints. When they discovered a problem, they fixed it. No problem, that’s their job. They found the water problem had a lot to do with drainage, so they worked outside in cold & rain & developed a system to carry water away from the house. That, to me, was over & above, but they said their main objective was to get & keep the basement dry, so they did what they had to do with no complaints. Now you can’t ask for better than that - they give their all! I am totally amazed!!"
