"Terrible and stay away!!! I really don?t like to write reviews about anyone but I felt we were cheated by hiring CH plumbing I ask everyone that want to do business with CH plumbing (Eddie) to reconsider and be careful not to make the same mistake we did. We got a bid to install pressure gage and 2 tankless water heater and remove and discard existing ones! We negotiated the price down $300 less than he quoted us, after he came and inspected the job, and gave us his bid. We paid Eddie before he even started the work (big Mistake on our part) thinking the gentlemen needs the money to by materials and according to him was going to finish late that day. It was 4pm when I got a call from him saying he finished the work but had issue with one heater going off and explained he might need to trouble shoot or as originally said might have to run a gas line to it (about 5 feet away) but he had to go! I was 5 minutes away from the house and asked him to wait he said he left already! When I got home found the control panels for the smart tankless water heaters in my shed didn?t even bother install them or even ask me when called him to ask his reply was supposedly you can bypassed them and there is no need for them!!! (According to him) (first issue) (Second issue) The water pressure was very low and the water is hardly coming out of the faucets! I called to tell him about the pressure issue and explained how these heaters are smart and the digital controls are there for a reason as it?s was recommended by the health department to use them as you can set the water temp to reach 135 as I used them before not to mention it has a nice digital display and you can turn off and on the water heater when going on vacation and so on. He said he didn?t want to drill the wall to install the display!! And will come out on Friday to trouble shoot the one heater and I rescheduled for Tuesday the following week. On late Monday night Eddie texted me that he if he comes out to trouble shoot the heater in question and if he has to run a gas line to it, he will have to charge me a whooping $750 for the work even though his original bid was including running longer gas line to the farthest (over 20 feet away) heater location (didn?t have to after all) when I negotiated the price for $300 less he clearly said he would run the gas line for the closest heater (5 feet away)if it requires if we agree to $200 less and not $300 We refused to accept anymore charges and requested Eddie to finish the job to trouble shoot and install the digital display as it requires in the manual Eddie decided he doesn't need my business!!! _Lesson learned; never pay anyone until the work is performed completely and to your satisfaction _don?t trust what they promise you unless it is in writing as per the conversation and agreement you make with them over the phone _ we will never hire anyone using this platform it seams they have a lot of startups that don?t honor their words so be careful We are very disappointed with this project outcome"

Sewer main clearings FAQs

Plan on hiring a plumbing pro every 18 to 22 months to keep buildup from turning into a full‑blown blockage. Mark a reminder on your calendar, even if everything seems to be flowing fine. Between visits, watch for early red flags—gurgling drains, slow water, or sewer odors—and call a plumber sooner if you notice them.

Most cleanouts wrap up in about two hours, but complexity drives the clock. A simple clog can be gone in under 60 minutes, while a stubborn blockage, especially one that needs repairs, can stretch to four or five hours. Major damage may push the job into a multi‑day project. Your plumber can give you an accurate time estimate after they’ve assessed your situation.

You can’t prevent every clog, as they naturally occur over time, but you can drastically reduce their frequency by following common-sense steps. Toss solids in the trash or disposal, and keep only water, approved liquids, and toilet paper down the pipes. Never flush problem items like dental floss, paper towels, cat litter, or “flushable” wipes. Finally, conduct regular inspections and perform routine maintenance and cleaning.

Start by confirming the company is licensed, insured, and certified. Next, dig into reviews and ask for references to be sure their work lives up to the hype. In addition, a company with several years of experience and recognized industry awards demonstrates reliability and quality. These factors altogether form the foundation for making an informed decision when hiring a sewer line professional.

Sewer line cleaning improves the overall performance of your home’s plumbing system by ensuring smooth operation throughout all connected pipes. Maintaining a clean main sewer line prevents backups and supports the efficient flow of water across your entire plumbing network. Regular maintenance not only minimizes the risk of unexpected repairs but also prolongs the life of your pipes, while seasonal care, such as winterizing, further safeguards your system’s performance.
