"Arturo and James was great. AMC plumbing that asked for pictures and didn't try to charge us to troubleshoot. We eventually settled on changing the water heater but we were informed at every step what is happening. Thanks for being to take all our questions and told us how to take care of the new water heater. Excellent!"

Hydro jet uses water at 4,000psi to clean the inside of the mainline drain which connects all the home's drains to the city's sewer system.
Using a snake we can go through the cleanouts on the side of the house.
With the cleanouts snaked, and the blockage located, we can send the hydro jet through the sewer vent and flush out the blocked drain.

"I hired them to replace my toilet, and Long Ly clearly knew exactly what he was doing. He was truly a sincere and earnest guy. The toilet I purchased elsewhere arrived with two large bolts and two nuts missing, but he carefully cut and fitted his own hardware to complete the installation. His fee was also relatively affordable. I am totally satisfied with his work."
