Why Norwich Homeowners Choose Our Team

When a sewer problem shuts down your only bathroom or floods a basement, you cannot afford guesswork. You need a plumbing company that shows up on time, knows how to handle serious problems, and treats your home with respect. That is the standard we work to meet on every call.

Mom & Pop Plumbing was founded by Air Force veteran Pete Czmyr, who began plumbing in 1997 as a Utilities Systems Specialist. His military background shapes how we work today, with a focus on discipline, integrity, and doing what we say we will do. Pete brings more than two decades of hands-on plumbing experience across service work, new construction, and remodeling.

Our team uses an upfront, flat-rate pricing system, so you know costs before we begin. Sewer issues are almost always unexpected, so we provide multiple repair and replacement options when possible. That way you can choose an approach that fits your budget without pressure or confusing jargon.

We arrive in fully stocked vehicles, including trucks set up for high-velocity jetting and excavation. This matters for sewer work, because heavy roots, collapsed pipes, and long runs of clogged line often need more than a basic drain machine. With our equipment already on hand, we can usually complete work efficiently, which can help limit disruption to your schedule.

Customers across eastern and central Connecticut describe our service as courteous and professional. Reviews on Google, Yelp, Houzz, and HomeAdvisor praise the way we communicate, the cleanliness of our work, and the value they receive. Our sewer repairs and installations are backed by a warranty, which adds peace of mind long after the truck leaves your driveway.

What To Do During A Sewer Backup

Finding sewage in a shower, floor drain, or basement can be overwhelming. Knowing a few basic steps can help you protect your home and keep your family safer until we arrive.

First, try to stop water from flowing into the drains. If it is safe to do so, avoid running faucets, flushing toilets, or using appliances that send water into the plumbing. Continued use can push more sewage into low points, especially basements and lower-level bathrooms.

Keep people and pets away from affected areas, since sewage can carry bacteria and other contaminants. If you need to go near the backup to move items or take photos, wear shoes or boots and try to avoid skin contact. Do not use chemical drain cleaners on a main sewer blockage, since they rarely solve the root cause and can make future repairs more difficult.

If you can, take a few quick photos or videos of the affected rooms and any damaged belongings. This documentation can be helpful if you decide to contact your insurance company. Our team can walk you through that process and help you understand what information many insurers look for during a claim.

Then, give us a call during business hours so we can schedule service as soon as possible. When our plumbers arrive, they wear shoe covers, protect your floors, and work to keep the mess contained. If water mitigation is needed, we can help address standing water and moisture so you are not left on your own to deal with the aftermath.

How We Diagnose & Fix Sewer Problems

Sewer systems are mostly hidden, so it can be hard to know what is really going on when drains act up. Our goal is to remove that mystery and explain your options in plain language, so you understand what we recommend and why.

We usually start with a conversation about what you have noticed. Recurring clogs in multiple fixtures, toilets that bubble when other drains run, sewer odors inside, or wet spots in a yard can all point to different types of issues. Then we inspect accessible plumbing, such as cleanouts and basement piping, to see how the system is laid out.

For many sewer calls, a camera inspection is an important next step. We feed a video camera through the line to look for problems such as roots, bellies in the pipe, breaks, or buildup. In some cases we use traditional drain machines to clear obstructions. For heavy scale, grease, or roots, we often turn to high-powered hydro jetting that uses water at high pressure to clean the inside of the pipe.

Once we see what is happening, we walk you through the video findings at your home when possible. We explain what type of pipe you have, where the issue is located in relation to your house, and what repair or replacement options make sense. We provide clear estimates that outline pricing and approximate timelines, so you can make a confident decision.

Some situations call for targeted excavation to repair or replace a section of damaged line. Our fleet includes excavation equipment that allows us to access buried piping when needed. We work with Connecticut plumbing codes and local permit requirements, and we strive to keep digging as focused as possible to protect your yard and landscaping.

In homes that need more extensive work, such as whole-house repiping that connects to the sewer, we manage both the plumbing and the necessary wall access. Our team handles pipe installation, then patches and paints affected walls so the space looks finished again. At the end of every job, we clean up our work areas and walk you through what was done before we leave.

Our Comprehensive Sewer Inspection and Repair Process

When Mom & Pop Plumbing handles your waste lines, we use a meticulous approach to ensure the entire system is restored to its peak performance. We encourage you to observe the process and engage with us so you have complete insight into your home's health. Our professional approach includes:

• Performing a detailed video camera inspection to see the internal condition of your pipes without any digging.
• Identifying specific issues such as root intrusion, pipe shifting, or material transitions that are prone to failure.
• Clearing stubborn blockages using high-pressure tools that scour the pipe walls for a more thorough clean.
• Replacing or repairing damaged sections using high-quality materials that meet all local Norwich building codes.
• Testing the flow and verifying the integrity of all joints to ensure the system is completely leak-free and secure.
• Explaining our findings and the work performed to ensure you have total transparency and confidence in the results.

FAQs About Sewer Services in Norwich

What should I do first if sewage backs up?

Stop using water, keep people and pets away from the affected area, and avoid chemical drain cleaners. If it is safe, take photos of the damage, then call us during business hours. We can schedule service, assess the cause, and help you plan cleanup and mitigation.

How much does a typical sewer repair cost?

Costs vary based on what we find, such as simple clogs, root intrusion, or broken pipe. We use flat-rate pricing and review clear estimates with you before any work begins. We also present different repair options when possible so you can choose what fits your budget.

Will you need to dig up my yard?

Not always. Many issues can be handled with camera inspection, snaking, or hydro jetting through existing access points. If a pipe is collapsed or badly damaged, we may need targeted excavation. In those cases, we explain the plan, area affected, and restoration expectations before we start.

Can your team help with cleanup and water damage?

Yes, we provide water mitigation services when sewer backups cause flooding. We work to remove standing water, address moisture, and limit further damage. We can also help you understand the insurance claim process and what information many carriers ask for when reviewing sewer-related damage.

How soon can you come to fix my sewer problem?

We schedule sewer calls during our regular business hours, and same-day service is often available when our schedule permits. When you call, we discuss your situation, share the first available appointment, and give you an arrival window so you know when to expect our plumber.
