Many companies claim to unclog pipes that other companies were not able to unclog, but there are not many that have actually done it. At $49.95 Any Sewer or Drain, we have not only successfully unclogged sewers and drains that other companies failed to unclog, we have also retrieved sewer cleaning snakes that were left by other sewer companies.
Just recently, one of our fine mechanics was dispatched to a customers house located in Wantagh (Zip Code 11793). The customer had recently used another sewer and drain company, but their sewer backed up again. The other company wanted to charge them a $75 service fee just to come back and do the recall because it was a weekend. The customer couldn’t wait and asked their neighbors about a low cost sewer and drain company. A neighbor recommended us.
It seemed like a normal sewer clog, our mechanic started to snake the sewer without knowing that he was up for a surprise. He started to pull a lot of roots out of the line, which is expected, but the water would still not run properly and kept backing up. After a few times of snaking the sewer, he felt something big towards the end of the snake. The sewer cleaning snake was already more than 60 feet out and it was pretty tough to pull it back with “another” cable wrapped up around the cable fed into the sewer by our mechanic. It took him some time before he was able to pull back all of his cable. To his surprise instead of more roots at the end of his cable, he saw another cable wrapped around his cable. The customer stated that he bought the house recently and it was only the second time he had his sewer snaked. The customer was extremely happy to see the broken piece of cable coming out and gave our mechanic a $50 tip for his hard work. This is just one of many situations where $49.95 Any Sewer or Drain comes to the rescue of it beloved customer. Our mechanic went to this job on a Friday evening and the customer was not charged extra for an evening visit. If the customer had called a plumber then there were good chances that the plumber would have convinced them to replace the sewer line, which ofcourse would have been extremely costly.

Double sinks are not that common but every once in a while we do see them. The pipes under double sinks are connected slightly different than that of a single sink. The thing to keep in mind is, even if you have double sinks or a single sink, the pipes will be connected to a single stackline. Connecting the pipes to a single stackline is way more convenient and cost effective than having multiple stacklines. If you look at the bottom of your double sinks you will clearly see that the traps under both sides of the double sink somehow are connected. If you cannot visually see the pipes connecting, then they more than likely connect behind the wall.
Now, if only one of the sinks is clogged and the other one is running fine, then you can successfully unclog it with a plunger. If the plunger does not work, it means you have an object in the pipe. To remove the object, simply take apart the pipes under the side that is clogged, and clear the pipe. We usually find spoons, rice, bones or grease buildup. Once you clear the pipes, both sides of the double sink should work.
Now, If both sides of the double sink are running slow or are clogged, you can still try the plunger. But, you have to make sure you plug one of the sinks and plunge the other side. You have to plug one of the sinks because plunging one side without plugging the other side would simply cause the water to be pushed up on the unplugged side. If the plunger does not work, you can try other home remedies we have listed in other posts. If all that does not work, you have to get a snake and unclog the sink.
Snaking a double sink is not too different than snaking a single sink. Just be careful taking the pipes apart. It is sometimes difficult to put the pipes together under a double sink. If you have any issues related to your sewer and drain needs, you can always contact us.
Thank you

Sewer caps coming off during a backup is not that common, but rarely it does happen. This video shows a heavy metal cap being blown up due to a backup in the city storm sewer. Luckily, there were not any injuries.
The sewer caps on your main sewer trap are also vulnerable. The capsĀ have to be put on securely and no water should be coming out of them when you run water in your house. If your caps are loose or old or do not sit in the trap tightly or have lost their threads, it means it is time to buy new caps. During back ups, caps hold the sewer water back and in many cases prevent a mess by keeping the sewer water in the sewer pipe. There are different types of sewer caps. Sewer caps are also called fit-alls. The most common types of sewer caps are:
- Lead Caps
- Brass Caps
- Rubber Caps
If you never had your sewer cleaned and you are the original owner of the house, then more than likely , your sewer cap is a brass cap. All caps have their own pros and cons. The cost of all caps is pretty cheap but the main thing is you have to have caps on your main trap. Having caps can prevent many other issues other than just holding back sewer water. Caps also help in preventing smell from coming into your house. Caps can also help in avoiding sewer clogs, how? By blocking anything from falling into the sewer trap.
Caps can also prevent sewer rats from coming into your house (sewer rats coming through the sewer pipe into your house is extremely rare). A sewer pipe without caps will not not look good either.
You have to make sure you have proper caps installed to avoid many sewer related problems.
