"Eric Thompson and his crew were willing to jump in and help me immediately when I had an irrigation system leakage issue. They did not hesitate to help even though I live in Indiana and the house is in AL. So impressed with his level of service and repaired the problem quickly and with minimal cost. Highly recommend this company and Eric Thompson!!!!!"

"Dylan and his crew were punctual, very professional and very responsive to any of our questions. They were great in showing us exactly what they were doing and also ensured that their work did not interfere with any underground water irrigation system pipes. They were very friendly. Nathan and Jordan also were very punctual, professional and responsive to any of our questions and concerns. They ensured that we were satisfied with their work and took the time to explain the procedure and to suggest an alternative for one particular area (i.e., grinding down a portion that could not be made to meet with the existing concrete). We would definitely recommend this company in the future. Brian, our foundation inspection person, also was great. He followed up with us to let us know when to expect the teams and did a thorough inspection of our foundation."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

It can take anywhere from half an hour to a few hours to fix a main line clog, depending on the cause and severity of it. The job should not take more than a day to complete. Keep in mind that the main line is not the same as your home’s sewer lines (which connect to the main line and run to your house). Your city is responsible for any clogs or damage to the main line itself.

While there is no specific “best” method to clear hair out of a drain, several options work well. Using a combination of baking soda and vinegar to dissolve the hair clog is a great and easy way to help clear the drain. Drain snakes are also effective for more severe clog buildups. 

A bit of water in the bowl can help unclog a toilet, especially if you're using a plunger. However, if the bowl is full to the brim, you'll need to strap on gloves and remove some of the wastewater in a cup or container so it doesn't overflow when you try to unblock the pipe. If you're concerned about it filling further, manually close the flapper in the toilet tank or turn off the water supply to the toilet.

Anything from debris, rust, ice, and even poor installation can cause clogs in your plumbing vents. Some signs of a clog include slow drains, gurgling sounds in drains and toilets, and bad odors. The bad odors are the most concerning, as these can include methane and hydrogen sulfide. Contact a plumber to come take a look if you notice any of these signs.

Yes, frozen pipes can prevent a toilet from working correctly. If the pipes are frozen, water cannot flow, which means your toilet tank won't be able to refill after a flush. This will prevent the toilet from flushing again. Depending on which lines are frozen, the ice can also block the drain pipe, preventing water from flushing away.

As a temporary workaround, you can manually add water to the tank for each flush. To clear a frozen drain pipe, you can try filling the toilet bowl or tank with warm water and flushing to help thaw the ice. However, the best long-term solution is to unfreeze the pipes to get your toilet back in working order.
