Shinnston homes built during the coal mining years often have clay or cast iron lines that collect grease and roots, especially in Downtown and Francis Mine. Our crews clear those slow drains and main lines before they back up into basements along the West Fork River.
Snowy winters freeze shallow lines and send residents on WV-20 and US-19 looking for same-day help. We leave Charleston at 8 a.m. weekdays or 9 a.m. Saturdays and reach Shinnston in time to handle most calls before lunch.
Nearby Clarksburg and Bridgeport customers use the same number when their lines act up, so one trip up the highway can cover several stops without extra travel.
