"RR arrived in the afternoon and poked around with the equipment they had but could only go a limited distance. They were unable to complete the task day one after 3-4 hours on site. They explained that they needed different equipment due to the distance of the line.
They returned day 2 towing a large "snakeing" unit plus the equipment with video capability that they did not have on day one. I was informed of a fee of somewhere around $1000 to bring out the big equipment which they were able to use to resolve the problem. They wasted several hours on day 2 since they could not figure out where a corregated pipe ended after putting their snake more that 200 feet into it. That seemed odd since they were only 100 feet from the house. I asked if they had dug into the ground t5o see which direction the pipe went, they had not.
I got a shovel and dug 3 shovels of ground away from the collection box noting the line was not a drain line at all, but rather a line that made a u-turn back to the house to drain the downspouts.
I was pleased to note that they did not charge me for all the wasted time, but also noted that if they had had the appropriate equipment with them the job could have been done in an hour or so, not 2 days. I think the cost was high for the result.
