I could hear water running for a few days, but I couldn’t figure out the source. After scraping dirt away from the pipe leading to an outdoor spigot, I had a geyser on my hands. It was Sunday of the Thanksgiving weekend, but I couldn’t wait until Monday. Greg showed up within fifteen minutes after I spoke with him. Within thirty minutes, the problem was solved.
Sewer and Drain
Sewer
Most people don’t worry about the importance of maintaining their sewer and drain pipes until it’s too late. Water bubbling from your faucet or toilet or backed-up water in your tub or shower can indicate a problem with your sewer line. With modern video equipment, identifying blocked or broken drain or sewer line is quick, saving you money.
Over the years, we’ve seen all the common sewer or drain issues. Generally, these problems can only be corrected by a professional sewer line repair or replacement.

Common Culprits
- – Tree roots.
- – Deteriorated or collapsed lines.
- – Greasy build-up in the line.
- – Debris like toys or heavy paper products.

If your home has a bathroom, laundry room or other types of plumbing fixtures that are located below the level of the main sewer line, you may have a sewage ejector pump. If this is the case and it needs to be repaired, it should only be done by a qualified professional.
Drains
Regularly cleaning your drains can keep them in good working order and prevent the need for repair. A couple of ways to know when it’s time to clean your drains is if you notice a foul smell from them or if they are draining very slowly.
If you are noticing these signs, we can help improve the performance of your drains with a drain cleaning. Cleaning them yourself using harsh chemicals can create more problems in the long run as your pipes become damaged from those chemicals. But there are ways to ensure that you don’t have to repeatedly deal with the problem of clogged drains.
- In the Bathroom – Avoid allowing hair and soap scum to build up on pipe walls and cause the tub or shower to drain slowly. Toothpaste and soap build up in sink drains can also hinder proper water flow in your sink.
- In the Kitchen – Food and grease build up, as well as soap, can quickly clog your kitchen drain. Watch out for dropped food chunks or foreign objects like paper or fabric in the kitchen sink.
