"Always late or never turned up, he gave every excuse under the sun. Workmanship was very poor, he always left a mess that we ended up cleaning up afterwards. Still not finished the job after 4 months and we ended up hiring someone else to finish and redo the poor remodel and trim."

Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Southeast WI in Franksville, WI, is the leading plumbing company serving all of Southeastern Wisconsin since 2006. We offer complete plumbing repairs, sewer and drain cleaning, water heaters and repair, and much more. For all your plumbing needs, contact Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Southeast WI in Franksville.

"When the plumber arrived (delayed by over six hours) to cap my gas line in preparation for an electric stove installation, he told me I didn't need to get the line capped in such a circumstance. He kept saying, "who told you that you needed this?" I believed it was the standard approach recommended by plumbers for safety. But he simply closed the gas valve and left. After that I confirmed I was correct and called Mr. Rooter for someone to come complete the job. I was told someone would contact me but no one ever did, so I had to rush to hire a different company. During a later ?apology call? (after my Yelp review was read) from Mr. Rooter to discuss my experience, it was suggested to me that had my husband been present during the visit by the plumber, my request for the gas line to be capped would have been taken more seriously (because a man would know more about plumbing, I inferred). Saying "this may sound chauvinistic, but" as a preface to this comment didn't soften the blow."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

Grease buildup, tree roots, and foreign objects often cause blockages. Regular maintenance prevents major issues.

It’s generally safe to stay in a house that smells like sewage, but you should get the problem fixed as soon as possible. In most cases, the level of sewer gas you’re exposed to in a home will be low enough to only cause minor symptoms, though high levels of gas exposure can be more dangerous. If you’re smelling sewer gas in your home, it’s important to locate, assess, and fix the problem, because it won’t go away on its own.

When hiring a sewer line company, you need to consider more than just the quoted price. Make sure to check that the company or contractor is licensed, certified, and insured to protect you both. Check for positive reviews, and you can even request references for extra peace of mind. 

To find the best contractor, you might also want to consider how long the company has been in business doing sewer line cleaning and if they’ve won any industry awards for their work and service. Review potential contracts closely, and look for transparent pricing.
