Complete plumbing solutions..Serving the Fox Valley and surrounding areas for over 50 years!

"The plumber came when he said he would and did a good job fixing my toilet and faucet. The cost of the toilet repair was reasonable, but I was surprised how much the faucet leak cost. It was $170 to replace two valve cartridges, which took about 15 minutes total. I thought that was high. But at least the faucet is fixed now and the job got done promptly."

Proudly Serving Northeast Wisconsin with Locations in Crivitz and Lakewood. Offering Deferred & Low interest Financing

"This had to be the worst contractor I have ever dealt with in my entire life!!. Two words would describe Dama , TERRIBLE !! & OVERPRICED !!. The professionalism was terrible also . The technician came in our beautiful home with a hand cart that had grease on the wheels from there warehouse and as well as a box that the water heater was in that was full of grease !!. They dragged it in on top of our new carpet and got grease all over it . Terrible Mess!!. Then they left the home without wiring the water heater . Not to mention they left live energized wires in the basement that were never capped off and was a fire hazard waiting to happen . I had to have the unit wired as they were going to charge me separately as another cost . We stayed two days without water because of this irresponsible and careless contractor. I would never recommend them for anything again!’"

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It's advisable to have your sewer line inspected every three to five years to ensure its proper functioning and detect any potential issues early on. However, the frequency of inspections can vary based on factors such as the age of your sewer system, the type of pipes used, and your property's location. If you notice any warning signs like slow drains, foul odors, or sewage backups, it's essential to schedule an inspection promptly, regardless of the regular maintenance schedule. 

Homeowners insurance usually doesn’t cover sewer backups because it’s typically an avoidable problem with proper maintenance. The only exception would be if the backup is occurring because of local flooding and only if your city uses a combined drainage system for stormwater and sewage. If that’s the case, your policy should cover any resulting damage.

Cat pee has a strong ammonia-like smell, so if you smell cat pee but don’t have a cat or don’t suspect your cat has any accidents, there could be other issues at hand. Aside from pet urine, your house may smell like cat pee from leaking freon from an old fridge, mold, spilled cleaning supplies, or even outside odors from nearby farms.

There are a few things that can happen to your sewer system if you don’t fix it. These include rainwater entering it and causing rust and corrosion, dirt and debris leading to blockages, small animals getting stuck inside and clogging your sewer line or entering your home, and shortening the sewer system’s life span. 

Without a cap, nothing prevents toxic and non-toxic gasses like methane and hydrogen sulfide from slowly escaping your sewer system and entering your home and the surrounding atmosphere, resulting in a foul sewer odor throughout your house.

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.
