Wow, what an ordeal. I have a large hole in my sewer pipe, but luckily, it’s close to the house where they dug it. They also suspect I have a clog inside the house, causing that toilet to be slow.
Joey Casey was my point of contact, but he had two teammates with him, Johnnie and Patrick. Please let their boss know that those guys are awesome. They spent time teaching me how to better care for my water and sewer pipes, they included me while they were taking video of my sewer line and explained what they were seeing, which helped me understand not only where my lines are, but also the condition they are in. Lastly, they answered all my questions and made me feel so valued, not only as a customer, but as a person. GREAT experience!

The Main Street Bridge project is looking great. Thanks, team!
