Janelle Hairston
Owner and plumbing contractor
Signs the estimates and reads every camera note before it goes out. If you want a second look at a finding, she is who you ask.
About the shop
We fix the line, and we leave the ground the way we found it
Hairston Sewer & Drain works on sewer and drain lines in older Richmond houses: the clay, cast iron and Orangeburg under houses built between the 1920s and the 1950s.
There are seven of us and two camera trucks. Janelle Hairston owns the shop and holds the contractor license. The people who run the camera write the note, and the person who answers the phone is the one who books you.
