Testimonials

After waiting 4 hours for another company, I finally called Mike Stern Plumbing. I actually got a real plumber not a answering service on the phone, I explained that my water has to be shut off due to a bad leak. It was 10:15pm, the plumber said he would be there by 10:45pm. He was actually 5 minutes early.

High pressure Hydro Jetting. Unlike snaking & rooting, hydro jetting uses high water pressure to clean pipes removing all build up that has accumulated inside the pipeline. To prevent your main lines and drains from clogging or to remove pipe build up hydro jetting is highly suggested to be done on a periodic basis. Depending on the business traffic flow and the consumption of waste and grease this may vary from one company to another. Similar to human arteries, the more oily and greasy foods we eat our arteries are more likely to become clogged compared to someone who does not consume oily and fatty foods.


Hydro jetting pipelines cleans the interior walls and eliminates waste build up that has accumulated over time. A typical rooting service can only poke through the blockage and within a few weeks the problem arises over again.

Hydro jetting plumbing process involves inserting a high pressure stream of water flowing at 15-18 gallons per minute into the pipelines to clear waste build up. Unlike snaking, hydro jetting will remove scum attached to the pipeline walls that a typical rooter cannot do.

 

Many plumbers do not offer hydro jetting due to the high cost of hydro jet machines. Therefore, snaking a line may fix the problem for the time being but if the problem continues to arise; most likely it is time for the line to be hydro jetted.


Main Sewer Lines. Your main sewer lines are the largest drains in your home. All other household drains lead to the main sewer line. The main sewer runs underground from the house and connects to a city sewer line or a septic tank. Your main sewer line can become clogged from the debris those other household drains wash into it or by tree roots that penetrate pipe joints from surrounding soil.

 

If the main sewer line clogs, toilets and drains throughout your house will begin to backup. This is usually a very stressful situation for homeowners and it can happen at any time of the day or night. That's why Mike Stern is your 24 hour plumbing company.

 

A technician using high pressure hydro jetting or rooting equipment will cut through the clog and clean the main sewer pipe right down to its inner walls. If the technician has any indication there is a problem with the main sewer line, he can perform an inline Video Inspection to determine if the pipe is damaged or corroded. The technician will share the video with the homeowner and present options for sewer line repair or replacement if necessary

 

Mike Stern does much more than clean sewer lines. We also offer sewer line repair and complete sewer line replacement services and we can handle any other drain repair or plumbing jobs too.


Kitchen drains
clog over time. They run slower and slower as greases, soaps, fats and detergents build up on the inner walls of the pipes and eventually cause blockage. A Mike Stern service technician who specializes in kitchen plumbing jobs will use specialized equipment to cut through the clog and remove all debris. Your kitchen drainpipes will be as good as new and to keep them that way,


Shower and tub drains
present their own challenges. The clog culprit is usually hair and soap buildup in the trap and drainpipe. When you're taking a shower you should never see standing water in the stall or tub. Properly functioning drains should carry the water away almost instantly. If water covers the shower floor and your feet, you have a clogged shower drain, which will eventually become completely blocked. A service technician skilled in shower repair techniques will use one of our tub and shower drain cleaning machines to cleanse the drain of any and all debris, restoring it to new condition.


Bathroom sink drains
may become clogged with hair, toothpaste, soap and grime. Mike Stern provides many bathroom plumbing solutions and sink drains are one of the more common problems we solve. We will remove the clog and thoroughly clean the entire pipe so your sinks will drain like new.


Toilet drains
are sometimes overwhelmed with toilet paper and even the occasional kid's toy. Mike Stern can solve the problem with a machine that feeds a spinning cable into the toilet drain. The cable has special spring loaded blades on the tip that will cut through any obstruction while hugging the inside wall of the pipe and thoroughly cleaning it to restore full drainage and powerful flushes.


Floor drains
are common in basements, laundry rooms and garages. They may also be found on patios and driveways as well as older bathrooms. These drains are equipped with a trap that should be kept filled with water to prevent odors and sewer gas from escaping. Test drains occasionally to make sure they are aren't clogged and are ready to carry away water and prevent flooding. Dirt and debris can clog floor drains but we can open them quickly to restore good drainage.


Downspout drains
help to channel water from roof gutters away from your home. Many downspouts are connected to the city's storm sewer system via underground pipes which can become clogged with leaves and debris and cause a backup. Mike Stern provides professional plumbing services that clean downspouts and their connecting pipes to prevent flooding and restore proper drainage around the home.
