Customer had a main line blockage. Upon arrival he informed me that both bathrooms in the house were backing up. After diagnostic I determined that we would need to snake the line from the 3” vent on the roof. I accessed roof from the front of house. Once on the roof I ran 75 feet of k60 reel. Blockage was cleared. Tested line by flushing multiple times. Line in clear. Customer satisfied.

Upon arrival, we initiated an inspection of the drainage line utilizing a diagnostic camera. However, the camera became lodged within the line. Fortunately, we were able to extract it without incident. The camera was submerged in water, which obstructed visibility and prevented us from conducting a comprehensive assessment of the line's condition. Subsequently, we employed a K60 machine via the roof vent in an effort to clear the obstruction. It required two attempts to achieve successful clearance of the blockage, during which a substantial amount of cast iron scale was expelled through the cleanout. Following our findings, we advised the customer to replace the deteriorating cast iron plumbing in the master bathroom to prevent further issues. The customer requested two separate estimates: one for the master bathroom replacement and another for the replacement of the plumbing throughout the entire residence. We will furnish the customer with both estimates accordingly. Please be ad

After removing 18 inches of the damaged pipe, I used new PVC to make the necessary repair and packed dirt underneath the pipe. I then tested the repair by attaching a pressure gauge to the hose bib on the dock. After turning off the ball valve where the pipe connects to the house, the pressure remained stable, confirming the repair was successful.
