"I called this company bc it had good reviews & affordable price . They robed me I had a pump that need replaced cost would have been 600.00 total . Worker put new wire in & put through the pipe I had existing to the well . I asked if I pay cash can I get a discount ? I had lost my job 2 weeks ago from restructuring . I have no income coming in . After I was told $2600.00 I gave the worker $1300. Cash & he left for over 4 hours before showing up with the new parts. I called the owner again & explained to him my position I couldn’t help but cry & quote he tells me I got you . I thought ok he will give me some discount . NOT one penny did he go down . I had a total bill of $2600.00 . Wow glad he had my back ?! It would have been 4000.00 . I’ve talked to one’s professional in this business he actually raped me for what little was done & the price he got from me . Please beware women or anyone this company is rip off ! No one call him for any work . He deserves what he gets from being a liar & over charging . I have lots of friends & I will be telling all I know to tell all they know about this owner ."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

A professional drain cleaner is a plumber or specialized drain cleaner with the necessary tools to unclog drains and tiles to keep waste water flowing out to the septic tank or city sewer for processing. Keeping wastewater from backing up into your home helps keep you and your family safe from potential contamination and sickness. These pros can help resolve nearly any drain situation in a safe and efficient manner.

You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. Sewer line replacement costs about $60 to $250 per linear foot.

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.

Schedule regular inspections, fix minor issues promptly, and ensure proper drainage.

Avoid flushing non-degradable items, schedule regular inspections, and address minor clogs promptly.
