Boston Drain Co & Diagnostics Inc.

Boston Drain Company is a long-running Boston sewer and drain contractor for the jobs that require more than a quick snake. The company says it has served Boston since 1982 and handles residential and commercial drain cleaning, video pipe inspection, preventative maintenance, water jetting, and storm-water management. Recent customers describe same-day visits, quick diagnosis, camera work, sewer-line replacement, tree-root clearing, and crews that explain the problem before starting. Google shows 4.2 stars from 55 ratings; several reviews mention fair pricing, prompt scheduling, and repairs completed quickly, including a 2026 cast-iron sewer replacement after a home inspection. The older written history is mixed. Multiple customers praised emergency response and complex excavation work, while reviews from 2024, 2022, and 2023 raised serious concerns about high estimates, insufficient written pricing, or recommendations for major replacement before the problem was fully established. Those accounts are old, but they are specific enough to justify getting competing quotes and a written scope before authorizing excavation or pipe replacement. Boston Drain is a reasonable fit for sewer, drain, camera, water-jetting, and storm-water work in Boston. Ask what the inspection found, which repair options are necessary, and how the estimate changes if concealed conditions appear.
