Services & Process

As a septic-only provider, Lewis & Max Sewer Cleaners concentrates their work on tank pumping, sewer line cleaning, drain field assessment, and septic system inspections. Tank pumping involves removing accumulated solids and sludge from the tank before they cause backups or system failure. Sewer cleaning uses equipment like mechanical snakes or hydro jetting to clear blockages from the lines running between the property and the tank or municipal connection. Their focus means they're not juggling unrelated trades, so you're getting a technician who works on these systems every day.

Service Area

Lewis & Max Sewer Cleaners operates out of Brooklyn and serves customers throughout the borough and into adjacent parts of New York City. Exact service area coverage is best confirmed by calling them directly, especially for jobs in outer Brooklyn neighborhoods or across borough lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I use a septic-only company instead of a general plumber?
A company that specializes exclusively in septic work deals with these systems every day and is more likely to have the right equipment and diagnostic knowledge on hand. For complex or recurring septic issues, that level of focus often leads to a faster and more accurate diagnosis.
How do I know when my septic tank actually needs to be pumped?
Common signs include slow drains throughout the property, gurgling sounds in pipes, sewage odors inside or outside, and wet or unusually green patches of grass over the drain field. If you haven't had the tank pumped in three or more years, it's worth having it inspected regardless of symptoms.
Can Lewis & Max assess my septic system for a real estate transaction?
Septic inspections for real estate purposes are a standard service for many septic providers. It's a good idea to book this well before closing, since any needed repairs or pumping should ideally be resolved before the sale finalizes.
What is hydro jetting and when is it used for sewer cleaning?
Hydro jetting uses a high-pressure stream of water to blast through blockages and clean the interior walls of sewer pipes, removing grease, scale, and root intrusion more thoroughly than a mechanical snake. It's typically recommended for stubborn or recurring blockages that a snake alone can't clear.
How long does a septic tank pumping appointment take?
For most residential tanks, the pumping itself takes 30 to 90 minutes depending on tank size, access, and how full it is. Add time for the inspection and any discussion afterward and you're typically looking at a two-hour window.
Is it possible for tree roots to affect my septic system in Brooklyn?
Yes, tree roots are a very common cause of sewer line blockages, even in dense urban areas. Roots naturally seek out moisture and can crack or penetrate older clay and concrete pipes over time, causing recurring backups that only get worse without treatment.
