"Exceptional professionalism and service provided by the Nick and his crew. BFMD's lead representative, Mr. Artie Bell, provided a thorough presentation on the work that was going to be done, and we were kept apprised at every level of the work that was performed. The crew was customer-centered and very, very efficient. Best estimate and value for the sewer main replacement work! We would highly recommend this company to friends and others without hesitation."

"In this day and age US businesses can only export one thing - service. This company is the definition of great customer service. Extremely knowledgeable and polite staff. Work was done as promised, on time and efficiently. What I really liked about this company is that they offered me 2 options of how much the work will cost me based on how complex it will turn out to be. I needed to replace a water main so the complexity of work depended on whether the current pipe would pull out of not (it didn't). They worked with me on negotiating the price that was satisfactory to both of us. Overall great company and great experience."

"My guy at Abbott’s was very professional. He came to look at my pipes. First we had the sewer line camered to see if there were any issues. He gave me a good price. We didn’t even need to repair the sewer line so I was thankful. The guy was very helpful and talked with me through other possible issues I may have. He cleaned up and headed out after providing great service. I’ll go with Abbott if I have any other plumbing needs. Thank you"

"I had a sewer backup in my basement. Used Angi’s list and gave RTillery, Alex, a call. They were fantastic - great estimate, responsive, professional, courteous, quick in all their responses, the list goes on. I started with replacing the inside cast iron pipe. Alex even added a clean out. He and his crew were prompt, always polite and professional. They didn’t seem to mind my popping in to watch. The line was replaced in a day and a half w/ minimal water outage. After going back and forth I decided to replace the outside pipes. Alex provided several options. Other estimates would dig up the yard, sidewalk and driveway, replace the cast iron and terra cotta, but no cement work. RTillery slid the new PVC inside the terra cotta which was cheaper and less to dig up and they replaced the sidewalk! Only one other company offered to sleeve the PVC and it cost more! RTillery even came back to fix an issue they noticed doing their final checks. Wow! Can’t recommend these guys enough!"

"Am starting this review for this contractor as he partially finished the job with the promise to be back in two weeks to address the remaining cosmetic clean-up and seeding.  I will finish reviewing the quality of his work in greater details when he comes back to complete the job started and update on the overall quality of his workmanship. 
Roots from a tree had damaged the sewer line of my 1949 house.  Needless to say, it was not pleasant.  I called five contractors and everyone (with the exception of 1) quoted similar estimates for the job.  I chose Knock Your Plumb Out Plumbing because reading the reviews in Angie's List, talking to a reference, and partially because Johnathan (the owner) was proactive in his communication with me.  He was efficient-visited my house, called the city to get a better idea of my sewer line and the city's, identified that a water line may have to be replaced since the sewer line is beneath it, gave me a quote--all within a span of a few hours.  He then followed-up.  I was initially taken aback on how assertive he was, but in retrospect, it was what made Johnathan stood out amongst the other 4 contractors I called.  Once I screened Johnathan, my husband took over the details in communicating with Jonathan while updating me.  My husband and I were quite concerned initially when we read the negative reviews that Jonathan did not come back to finish the job; however, Jonathan was open and willing to discuss our concerns.  He seemed upfront and a straight shooter, which my husband typically appreciates.
Once the contract was signed, Jonathan called to set up a day to begin the job.  Due to several raining days this past week, the work was delayed by a couple of days.  Jonathan and his crew worked all day to hand-dig the yard and completed the job by the evening.  My husband checked in twice throughout the day.  Our yard looks horrible right now, but Johnathan reassures us that I will look better.  He will come back to complete the job in two weeks and seed the yard for grass.  I will become back to finish up this review.  Thus far though, Johnathan is very professional.  His quote is within the range of other contractors' (although he gives a lifetime warranty-not sure whose life's or how we can enforce that though :))!  He is very communicative and will update you on the progress.  He didn't pick up my phone call but did pick up for my husband on the day he was working.  If all goes well, I will definitely recommend Knock Your Plumb Out Plumbing to other friends in the city and will use him again for other works.  Will be back to update this review.  The rating of B for "overall" and "quality" are not reflective of the work per say but as the work is not completed yet, it will have to be a B right now.

My 1952 house was not equipped with a vent, nor proper traps for either the washing machine or sink. There were sewer gases backing up on occasion, into the sink area, which is of course unpleasant.

Robert installed the traps, then came back to add the vent to the outside of the house. He did not have to go through the attic and roof. The end result looks like it was built with the house, and blends in well with the exterior.

He responds to my need for help either instantly or within 24 hours, is professional and knows his business. Anyone he hires is up to his standards, and those are very high. Having a reliable and qualified plumber is key to survival, and for that need, I go to Robert!!

FAQs for sewer main install, replace or repair projects in Fort-howard, MD

When installing a sewer line, you should consider extra costs like tree removal, driveway repairs, or patio resurfacing. Hiring a professional plumber is essential, and you may need additional specialists if landscaping or heavy excavation is involved. Addressing these potential extras up front helps ensure accurate budgeting and prevents sudden cost overruns.

To calculate the length of sewer piping you need, measure the distance from your house to the main sewer line, adding the depth of the city main to this distance. Be sure to account for any obstacles like tree roots or utility lines that may require additional piping.

City sewer lines are installed at a lower elevation to prevent unwanted backflow and water damage. This lower positioning ensures enhanced performance and long-term safety, meeting all technical and safety standards.

With trenchless methods, a plumber inserts a smaller pipe within the existing plumbing, avoiding full excavation. It can be more cost-effective and less disruptive than traditional methods, but it's not suitable for all homes.

Yes, you must secure permission from your local water authority before connecting to a public sewer line. This approval ensures your connection meets all regulatory requirements.

Sewer lines are buried between 18 inches and 8 feet deep, with most systems placed between 18 and 30 inches. In colder regions, pipes are set deeper to remain below the frost line.
