"For the first part (tub drain cleaning), the plumber showed up exactly at the time promised, finished his work quickly, did a better job than other drain cleaners have ever done, explained what he did, cleaned up thoroughly and charged exactly what he estimated over the phone. He also took the time to do small repair on my toilet. In response to my inquiry about a new toilet, he ordered one that matched my decor, came back within two days (again, exactly on the date and time promised), installed the new toilet, charged the exact amount quoted and left the bathroom as clean as it was when he arrived. On both occasions, the plumber and his assistants were clean, professional, knowledgeable and courteous. I would definitely recommend this company."

" I happened to have an excavator at my house to dig a pool and asked him to dig to up the front yard because I was having a problem with the drain in my garage (1958 house). I was sure where the drain went once it left the garage. He found the pipe but didn't have the tools to fix the problem. I had had 2 other "rooter" guys try to clear the drain. Called Rolling Rooter and told him what was going on. He said he had to finish up with his wife's dr. appt but would be out within 2 hrs. and he was. Had the right tools and with the pipe exposed was able to clear the drain. He was then worried that we were supposed to get rain and the trench would collapse. He didn't have the right pipe so ran out and got the pipe to repair the break, came back, waded through muddy water and did the repair. Threw enough dirt on to protect everything and then was satisfied drain would stay fixed. I would ABSOLUTELY call them again. Never expected him to show up same day and all was fixed in a couple hours. He said he could have dug the pipe as well so he can also dig."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

FAQs for septic system repair projects in Albany, NY

Leach field failure can often occur due to a lack of proper maintenance, hydraulic overload, or environmental factors. When too much water enters the septic system—like running multiple large laundry loads back-to-back—it can overwhelm the leach field. Regular professional inspections, ongoing maintenance, and spacing out high-water-use activities help prevent failure.

A septic tank shows repair needs when noticeable symptoms arise around your home. Noticeable signs include strong sewage odors at fixtures, recurring pipe blockages, pooling water or damp patches near the leach field, and areas of unusually bright green or spongy grass. These indicators confirm that deteriorating components or clogs exist. Monitoring such signs and scheduling timely professional inspections prevents further costly damage.

Adhering to a strict, scheduled maintenance plan prevents septic system repairs. An annual inspection and a pump-out every three to five years safeguard your system’s performance. Additionally, only flushing waste and toilet paper, installing drain filters, keeping nonapproved items out of the system, and avoiding excessive water use help maintain your septic system’s health and efficiency.
