Common questions

How much does a plumber cost?

It depends on the job and how bad the problem is. That is why the first step is a phone call. Describe the problem and get your free estimate on the phone, with upfront pricing.

Will I talk to a real person?

Yes, you will.

Do I need to fill out a form?

No forms and no waiting on emailed quotes. One phone call is all it takes.

Can I get help at night or on a weekend?

We have plumbers ready to help families in the community 24/7, but moment-to-moment availability depends on demand. Call to find out how soon we can service your home.

Should I wait to call?

You already know that plumbing problems don't go away on their own. And waiting just increases the risks to your house. Plumbers see this hesitation all the time. Instead of regretting not calling earlier, just make that 2-minute call now and get your free estimate.

People also ask

Who owns the sewer line between my house and the street?

The homeowner owns it, in almost every case, from the foundation wall out to the connection at the main. That is why a backup on a residential lot is a plumbing call rather than a utility call, and why the repair permit gets pulled in the property owner's name.

How can a plumber tell roots are the problem without digging?

A camera run down the cleanout shows it directly. Root hair at a tile joint looks nothing like grease or a collapsed section, and the footage also gives a depth and distance so any excavation is a targeted cut instead of a trench across the yard.

My drains slow down every spring. Is that normal?

It is common on older laterals, and it is not something to keep living with. Spring melt raises the water table, roots take on their fastest growth of the year, and a line that was passing enough flow through Vicksburg and Galesburg style clay tile suddenly is not.

Does a sewer backup get covered by home insurance?

It depends entirely on the policy, and many carriers treat backup as a separate rider rather than part of the base coverage. Contact your insurance provider before work starts and ask specifically about sewer backup and water damage.
