"Technician Shane Moore and his helper Chris did a phenomenal job unclogging a very, very clogged drainage pipe at our house. After hours of sweat and hard work they were successful at unclogging years of sludge from the pipe! This was the second time that Shane has come to our rescue! He is a wonderful man and we appreciate all of his hard work and professionalism!"

"Allen and Justin (Blacksburg location) did their work late on a Friday afternoon without any complaints. They were efficient and I felt like they were honest in their assessment and repair advice. They walked me through almost everything and gave advice on how to extend the water heater life."

"It was delightful working with Mike. He responded to my initial inquiry promptly and came out within days to look at and estimate the job. He offered several solutions to our drainage/erosion problem. He answered our endless questions patiently and professionally. Basically everything he said happened. Which is pretty refreshing. He started the project, arrived when he said he would finished as planned. He and Bruce were quite neat and organized during the process, it was impressive. Mike goes above and beyond in his workmanship he just knows the right thing to do and we really appreciate the extra care he gave to our home. He seeded part of our yard that used to be a gravel driveway and it looks amazing! I highly recommend Mike, wouldn’t consider anyone else."

"Fantastic company! They returned my phone call the same day, came to my house to give me an estimate 2 days later (they would have been out the next day, but that didn't work with my schedule), and then I hired them. They did all the work while I was at work so I drove up to a beautifully clean yard! What I was particularly impressed with was how they left my yard. They said when they gave me the estimate that they would probably have to leave some of the stumps but would get as close to the ground as possible. If there are still stumps, I don't know where they are! I have since installed mulch beds and planted flowers where the overgrown bushes were, with zero complications. I can't wait for them to come out and do my backyard.

"Initially I had problems with a dehumidifier and drain hose were leaking because they were not properly installed. I wrote a one star review based on that. However, since then JES responded to my complaint and Brian came out and did a thorough job of installing a drain system for my dehumidifier, I was also impressed by a follow up phone call about my review and the subsequent work. I have upgraded my review of JES."

"From my perspective, everything went according to plan.  During the project, Eric had to substitute one part of the materials when the delivery of a product was not of the quality he was expecting (entire order of stone).  This resulted in some redesigning/replanning.  Everything was discussed with me and explained.  The alternative that was designed and installed was just as great as the original.  I much appreciated Eric's attention to detail on the stone.  Due to the location for that particular product, the defects would have been visible.  One other point on the materials.  The concrete steps used came in at a lower price than originally estimated due to the factory lowering its price.  Eric made me aware of the lower price and adjusted the final costs accordingly.  
I found his workers courteous and hard working.  Communication from Eric as the job progressed was outstanding.  As you would expect of a job this size, there were changes/adjustments that had to be made.  Each were discussed with me (and I with Eric) explaining the why and how.  For a job this large and complex, there were so many things that could have gone wrong; nothing did.
I mentioned the price adjustments for the steps above.   At the end of the job, Eric did a careful accounting of all costs and compared them (line by line) to the original estimate explaining all the differences (both direction).  I was in complete agreement with his numbers and appreciated this attention to detail.  It made me feel very comfortable with the price of the project.
I was also impressed by Eric's knowledge and expertise and how he utilizes them in the project.  In other words, he knows his stuff.   If by chance he doesn't know the answer to a question, he finds out.  He also has many local contacts he can suggest that know their stuff as well.  (I had questions unrelated to the project concerning grass seed and other things.)
I do not hesitate to recommend Serenescapes to anyone.  This is a quality product and one I will enjoy for the life of the house.  I plan to use them again myself for other (smaller) projects as well.  
One recommendation for anyone having this type work done, plan well in advance of when you want the project completed.  We started Fall 2015 with a desired completion of Spring 2016 to allow for the complexity of the project and the weather.  You can't and don't want to rush hardscaping.  If you have a known due date, be sure and communicate it.  I have no complaints with the work or the schedule and I'm ready to go this spring despite the abnormally wet fall.  Eric kept in contact to let me know when they couldn't work, why and when they would be back.  He monitors the weather constantly and plans according to the forecast.  I appreciated this communication."

"Good people to work with, professional in every way. Normally when we received 2" of rain water would start entering the basement. When we receive 3" the basement floor would be covered. Two days after installing their system our area received 8.5" of rain and our basement remained dry, not a drop got in the house. These guys know what they are doing."

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts

If you've discovered a rather frightening buildup of brown and black gunk below your shower cover, you're not alone. The smelly sludge is often a collection of mildew and biofilm. Biofilm comes from the breakdown of soap scum, hair, skin cells, and bacteria that collects during shower time. It's quite common in a humid space and relatively easy to clean with a gentle DIY cleaning solution such as baking soda and vinegar.

You can drain a hot tub very quickly by using a submersible pump rather than the hose-sized drain at the bottom exterior of the tub. A pump can move up to 30 gallons per minute, draining your hot tub in no time. Using the regular drain can take up to two hours.

Yes, drains are one common entry point for water bugs. However, water bugs may enter your home through various locations including doors, windows, pipes, and vents. Water bugs are drawn to the dark and moist atmosphere drains provide, and can easily find their way into your home through sewer drain pipes. You can stop water bugs from entering through drains by regularly cleaning your drains and repairing faulty drainage systems.

The cost to unclog a drain varies based on the location and severity of the clog. For simple clogs within your home, such as in a sink, toilet, or shower, hiring a plumber typically costs between $110 and $350, with an average of around $200. Snaking a toilet or sink usually costs between $110 and $275, while a bathtub or shower clog costs about $225.

For a more serious clog in the main sewer line, the cost is higher. Clearing a main line clog generally costs between $200 and $600, with an average of about $380. However, prices can range from as low as $100 for snaking a minor clog to over $1,600, particularly if advanced methods like video inspection and hydrojetting are needed for a large or hard-to-reach blockage. Some severe main line clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear depending on factors like the cause of the clog, its distance from an accessible cleanout, and whether the pipe is located beneath an occupied space (e.g., in an apartment building). You may be able to save money on minor clogs by using a drain snake or bladder yourself.

Bleach is generally not recommended for your shower drains. Although diluted bleach can technically help clean your drain, it will not unclog your pipes. In fact, bleach can harm your plumbing system because it’s so powerful. The bleach can change the color of your sink and even corrode metal pipes and fittings.

Often, people reach for bleach because it's already in their house. But it's worth getting a plunger or a drain snake for the job instead. It'll be a lot less money to buy a new plunger than to pay a plumber to repair or replace damaged pipes.
