"I would recommend White's Plumbing & Repair to anyone who's looking for a plumber who will show up as promised, accurately diagnose a problem, and who possesses the skills to make the necessary repairs. After another company had left me in a difficult position by sending a plumber who was was uninterested and/or unable to deal with my problem, White's Plumbing & Repair came to the rescue. Even at the end of a long, busy day, Lorenzo and his assistant showed up as promised and treated me as if I was most important customer of the day. He was thorough, and it was obvious that he took pride in his work. I'm thankful that I was able to connect with White's Plumbing & Repair, and grateful for the good work that Lorenzo did that day."

"My disabled mom was very worried and didn't understand the job that needed to be performed. Jeremy, from ECR Plumbing, was very polite and sat down with my mom and went over the whole job and explained everything to her so she could understand. She was so happy and relieved to have someone who cared so much about his work and and that he explained everything that was going to be done. As far as the job, Jeremy, went out of his way out go the extra mile and put in the best products and also keeping the price lower than the other 3 plumbing companies that I had called. The ECR crew were on time and finished the job in 2 days."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

Sewer gas in any location can cause eye and respiratory irritation if you’re exposed at low levels, or more severe symptoms if you’re exposed at high levels—but fortunately, the fresh air outside means it’s less likely to affect your physical health. However, sewer smells outside can still indicate significant plumbing problems that will need to be dealt with, such as a potentially damaged sewer line or roof vent pipe.

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.

To prevent drain clogs, perform regular maintenance and cleaning. Avoid disposing of substances like grease or coffee grounds down the sink. Additionally, installing and routinely using drain strainers can help catch debris and prevent blockages from forming.
