If it sounds too good to be true, it is too good to be true.
You’ve seen the ads and you’ve more than likely had your mailbox (and inbox) flooded with so-called sewer unclog “deals.” What’s the real deal? Companies use these gimmicks to literally get their foot in your door, or in this case, your drain. Once they’re in, the upselling begins.
Almost like magic, they’ll find repairs or products they insist you need that – shocker – aren’t covered by the coupon. Before you can say, “We’ve been had!” your $89 deal turns into a very expensive nightmare.
All plumbing companies are not created equal.
At MAS Plumbing, our plumbers don’t come to your house to sell, they’re there to fix the problem. They’re not salespeople, they’re professional, licensed plumbers who are honest and upfront about the service and the cost. They explain your options before they start doing the work with no surprises. Owner Ron Masciola wouldn’t have it any other way.
As Ron said, “We really do treat you like family. You won’t find a MAS professional trying to sell people something they don’t need. Instead, we give customers their options with upfront pricing. A lot of companies teach their people how to upsell. That’s not what we do. At MAS we want to build life-long relationships with our customers and that doesn’t happen if you rip people off. Look at our reviews. That should tell you everything you need to know about our commitment to service.”
There’s more than one way to clear a sewer line.
The one that’s right for you depends on your specific needs. Rodding clears blockages from pipes by using a motorized, flexible cable (rod) equipped with a sharp cutting head. The cable is threaded through your pipes and when the machine is activated, the cutting head breaks the clog into tiny pieces that flow down with the water. Rodding also scrapes the sides of the pipes to remove sludge. Rodding is typically used for breaking up and removing hard, thick blockages such as tree roots. It is a common application for residential systems.
Hydro jetting clears blockages from pipes with a high-pressure, water-based cleaning system that scrubs pipe walls 360 degrees to remove debris, grease, and sludge. It is highly effective at clearing stubborn clogs with heavy build-up on pipes. Hydro jetting is the perfect method for cleaning lines that are blocked with grease, sludge, or residue. It is a common application in commercial systems such as those found in restaurants and food service companies, but is also beneficial service for residential customers.

Don’t let a company clear out your bank account while they clear your drains.
Hey, we use coupons too. The difference is the upselling. At MAS Plumbing we never upsell our customers. When you have a clogged drain, we will use a camera to diagnose the problem, we’ll make recommendations about how to best clear the drain, we’ll explain the costs, then we will let you choose how you want us to proceed.
We’re honest. It may be an old-fashioned way to run a business, but it’s served us well for well over 25 years.
