"Anthony was so helpful. He was quick, efficient, and helpful. They came out same day and problem fixed in 20 minutes. The “handymen” that came out the day before said our whole toilet would need to be replaced and charged us double the money and didn’t fix anything. Anthony walked us through what the problem was and fixed it quickly. We’re very impressed and happy with Toilets N Such. Thanks Anthony!!"

"They claimed it was a week long job, but then came in and did the work in one day. I paid over $400/hr for the work they did. They claimed to do the work with the proper permits, but they didn.t I was left holding the bag, trying to get the work permitted after they did the work. The work has been sitting there for about a month as I try to get the work inspected and get this nightmare behind me. I am so naive and trusting. Never again. I would never recommend William Parish Plumbing, quite the contrary"

He was very helpful in explaining everything and prices were very reasonable."

Sewer main clearings FAQs

Experts recommend cleaning your sewer line every 18 to 22 months to prevent clogs from building up and causing damage to the pipes and related installations. Put it on a calendar and perform the cleaning procedure even if you experience no obvious signs of a clog. Look out for telltale warning signs of a significant clog, like gurgling sounds and rotten smells coming from your drain.

The average sewer-cleaning process takes around two hours for a typical home. However, more complex jobs can take up to four or five hours to complete a thorough sewer cleaning. Repairing any damage caused by the clog takes even longer, up to two or three days of work, depending on the severity of the sewer line damage.

You can’t prevent every clog, as they naturally occur over time, but you can drastically reduce their frequency by following common sense steps. Rely on trash cans or the garbage disposal to remove waste, limiting the amount of solid materials that go down the drain. Never flush problem items like dental floss, paper towels, cat litter, or “flushable” wipes. Finally, conduct regular inspections and perform routine maintenance cleanings.

Drain cleaners can sometimes be used as part of a general maintenance routine. Though budget-friendly, these chemicals are often too harsh for pipes and won’t help with major clogs. “Liquid drain openers are better suited to use as part of a regular maintenance program. Pouring a small amount down the drain after running your dishwasher or garbage disposal is a good idea,” says Jeff Botelho, Angi Expert Review Board member and Massachusetts-licensed journeyman plumber. “Cleaning garbage disposals regularly will help keep excess material from entering the building sewer and causing a problem.”
