"I've worked with many plumbers over the years, and Tyler and his team are the best I've found. What sets them apart is that they're always several steps ahead, anticipating challenges and coming prepared with solutions before problems arise. They are consistently on time, deliver exceptional workmanship, and leave every job site clean. The entire team is professional, respectful, and genuinely cares about their customers. I've trusted them with everything from replacing a water heater element to plumbing custom builds, and they've exceeded my expectations every time. Their pricing is always fair, and they never sacrifice quality. Their professionalism and craftsmanship have earned the trust of city inspectors, which says a lot. If you're looking for a plumber who goes the extra mile and truly stands behind their work, I highly recommend Tyler and his team."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Some homeowners use additives every month to help septic system performance, but according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the effectiveness of septic system and leach field additives is unknown. Further, additives made with organic solvents or alkali chemicals can actually be harmful to the necessary bacteria in a septic system.

Unlike regular cleanings, snaking your sewer line should be done as needed. There’s no reason to snake your sewer line if you don’t have any noticeable issues, like slow drainage or plugged drains. You can add it to your regular sewer cleaning checklist as a prevention method (on the same 18- to 22-month schedule), but it’s not always necessary. 

Pouring drain cleaner down a vent pipe isn’t recommended. First of all, unlike a clog in a sink or bath caused by such material as soap scum build-up, toothpaste, and hair, clogs in a vent pipe are likely the result of debris from trees or even an animal stuck in the pipe. Drain cleaners won’t be able to eat through this kind of material. The cleaner will only become clogged in the vent with the debris, causing even more problems.

Anything you drop down your sink runs the risk of damaging and clogging your pipes. Hair, bits of food, and other debris can catch on the item and build up over time, causing a clog. Even if it’s not valuable, it’s definitely worth trying to retrieve the item, or at the very least, asking a pro for specific advice.

Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn’t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn’t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.
