I called S & S after hours (around 7 pm), and Ed answered the phone right away. I explained the situation, and Ed told me he could get someone out in 2-3 hours, but that his guy on call had been working non-stop since 5am (lots of storm water issues that day). If I could wait until morning, I could give his guy a break and also save myself a significant amount of money by not paying for an after hours call. I thought that was perfectly reasonable. Two gentlemen arrived by 7:15 am, and the job was finished by 7:45 am. They even had the right equipment to turn off the water at the street while they worked, so we didn't have to call the village to do it. I'm very pleased with the service I received and the responsiveness of the company.

The dryer is vented through the attic. When Aaron came out, he was very nice, but was concernced about lifting the dryer off the washer. He looked at the drum, took off a circular wire, and said that mabye the drains were clogged, but maybe it needed a pump. He would bring one the next time just in case. He said he would schedule a time when another worker could come out and help lift off the dryer. I mentioned to him that it was vented through the attic. He expressed concern if the vents were plastic. I was not sure. Found out they are aluminum NOW IT GETS UGLY> Two days later, Jeff appeared and said Aaron was coming. He did not say he was the owner, only that he was the vent specialist. I told him we have had no problems in the past 15 years with the venting system. He said, "Well then it should be okay". He went up stairs and pulled the washer and dryer out. and began to grumble about, This was impossible. When my husband when upstairs, he told him it was a job he would not do, because of liability if , in the future, the washing machine would leak. He was quite irate and rude to my 81 year old husband. He claimed no one told him that the venting was in the attic. (Not True). He psushed the washer dryer partially back in, (Not how he found it) and he stormed out of the house, did say he would not charge us. I did not know at first , what had happened and wondered if Aaron was coming yet. My husband told me that he was talkig about liabilty. I called t he store and was told the owner could not talk to me for an hour. I called back and got a nice receptionist and explained I did not know if Aaron was coming. Jeff came on the line, and was rude to me...saying he would not tell me anything until I told him what my husband said. After I said, my husband mentioned liability, he went on to again say no one told him about the attic venting, and if the washer leaked he might have the liability. He said Aaron was not coming. I recalled the next day when I wondered where the metal ring was that Aaron had taken off and complaianed that he had not put the dryer and washer back as he found it, and has managed to disconnect the dryer vent in the process. He emailed me back and said Aaron never took anything and I should call him again but call his LAWYER!. I later found the metal ring as Jeff had taken items off the top of the dryer and put them in the adjacent bedroom. I contacted another service, my son took the dryer off with my husband and t he man cleaned the washer in 1/2 hour and left and did a perfect job. He also put back the metal ring that Aaron had taken off.

French Drain Service reviews from real Angi homeowners in Merrimac, WI
they put down the asphalt in a way that blocked water from draining off the apron (brilliant). He came back once (to fetch a pile of asphalt they had left) and the guy hand raked that section to see whether it would help (it did some), said he would come back to finish the job and re-add the...

About 2 weeks ago (2/17) we woke to a burning plastic smell coming from our furnace. Modern came up in a HVAC near me search so we called them. They did show up quickly to service our furnace. I’ll give them that. The tech that came did a less than thorough service on the unit. The tech found...
Before I realized that the water gushing in my crawlspace was due to a broken sump pump drain pipe, I attempted to turn the main water to the house off to stop the flow. Not only did it not help, but I also (or rather my realtor friend) broke off the valve. And in the off position, no less....

FAQs for french drain service projects in Merrimac, WI
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The cost to install a drain pipe is $600 on average, but the total can range between $150 and $2,000. Some cost factors that influence your project price include the type of drain, the area’s accessibility, the proximity of existing drain lines, and whether you’re installing a new drain or replacing an old one. Replacing the p-trap or s-trap under a single fixture will usually cost around $150, while replacing a main drain pipe can cost well over $2,000.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
