Description of Work: Unfroze main sewer line. Could not have asked for better service! I would recommend this company to anyone. Punctual, very neat about surrounding area and took time to explain and to show me via camera, the frozen area.

+ -1 moreWe really like him. He has come to my house a few times. We've generally called him because we have to call him a lot less than we ever had to call any other plumber. He always has charged us a good price. He's very honest. He does not fix things that didn't need fixing. Last time, he really could have cleaned our main drain. He's very professional, very prompt and reasonably priced. The price is amazing. He has never been late other than like when he has called and said, "I'm going to be late."
Description of Work: We used Drain Solutions. We had water in our basement and it turned out we needed a new toilet in our basement.

+ 0 moreChris was very prompt both times he came to our house. He is extremely thorough and does high quality work. He showed us where there were problems and explained everything he needed to do, so we have full confidence and trust in him and in his work. He cleaned up after himself better than most contractors we've hired for messy jobs. He was also polite and professional.
Description of Work: Originally Chris came out and unplugged a storm drain that had backed up into our basement. He discovered a corroded nearly 100-year-old water pipe was leaking under our basement floor in the process. After we had a plumbing company come out and replace that section of pipe, Chris came back and innovatively figured out a good way to enclose the water pipe and seal off the floor so that it is air tight and our radon mitigation system still works. We had previously hired a radon mitigation system company to do that, before realizing that there was a leak under there, and they sealed it, but just with insulation and foil, so that you had to be very careful not to put any weight on it. Chris sealed a board in place, so that if we ever need to get back under there we can, but it is solid and better sealed than it was before he came.

+ 0 moreChris returned my call and worked me into his schedule on short notice. He was very methodical and thorough in troubleshooting the issue. Finally concluded that a portion of the bleach puck that I had placed in the tank got sucked into the works and was slowing the water flow. He had to run to another job but offered to come back later to install a new toilet. I decided to install the new toilet myself, but I did call Chris while I was at the store and he gave me some pointers in selecting the toilet. Great guy, very competent.
Description of Work: Troubleshoot and diagnose poor flushing toilet.

drain cleaning
+ -1 moreI am selling my home and the buyers had hired Roto Rooter to scope the main sewer line as part of the inspection process. Roto Rooter told them the whole line needed to be replaced and quoted them $11,250. I called Chris Babcock-Drain Solutions to come and give me/us a second opinion. (Two year previously RR had told me the same thing and my brother-in-law recommended Chris for a second opinion.) In both instances the line replacement was not needed! The buyers and their agent came and we all looked on as Chris scoped the drain. He explained what we were looking at. He answered my questions, as well as the buyers. There was no evidence of any repairs that were needed, or total replacement. We were all satisfied with his opinion. Chris saved me $11,250!!
Description of Work: Chris Babcock-Drain Solutions cleaned the main sewer line and scoped the line to look if any repairs were required.

+ 0 moreChris did a great job of diagnosing the problem. He tried the simplest solution first (auger), then moved on to removing the toilet and bringing in larger power equipment. He kept me informed of the time and cost each step of the way. He removed his shoes, put down towels around his work area and ensured he cleaned up after he was done reinstalling the toilet. He even gave me some pointers on fixing another plumbing problem in my downstairs shower on my own. He absolutely couldn't have done a better job. A+ work.
Description of Work: Our kids upstairs bathroom toilet wouldn't drain when flushed. The main house's main drainpipe was plugged.

Description of Work: Fixed leaky toilet, supply line needed changing, also replaced fill valve. Bath tub was leaky and needed replacing o ring. Tightened up shower temperature valve and replaced o rings in shower to stop it from turning to 360 degrees.
