"Justin landscaped my entire property: front, back, and side yards after my home was destroyed in the CARR fire. He installed pavers in the front driveway and porch area as well as throughout the backyard (patio and walkways) These have LED lights to light up the walkways. He installed a most beautiful large pond with fountain. Put in sprinkler system, fence, and planter boxes. The yard is exactly what I asked for. Beautiful trees, flowers, shrubs, grass, retaining walls. It is my own little piece of paradise. I could not have asked for a better result. He is kind and professional, with a good work ethic. I highly recommend Justin."

"ECO-Concepts was excellent. I started with one idea in mind, although Jed had many great suggestions and my landscaping came out beautiful. They came every day until the job was finished, therefore finished it quickly and on-time. The crew was very efficient, respectful, friendly, and helpful. I would not hesitate to hire them again."

"Aleman Plumbing contacted me right away for an appointment to look at my water heater. Their quote was advantageous compared the the other I received and they were able to schedule the work immediately. My water heater was in a difficult location and I also needed to replace a pressure control valve but Carlos got it all done very well and was great to work with."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

A clogged air gap can cause a dishwasher not to drain. There are, however, other potential issues that can lead to improper drainage. For example, if you have attached the air gap to a garbage disposal and forgotten to remove the knockout plug, wastewater may backflow into the dishwasher. Check that the air gap is installed properly, and then look for clogs in the air gap and dishwasher filters. 

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.

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.

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

On average, a plumber will take 30 minutes to two hours to clear a clogged drain. If the clog is located close to the drain or an access point and isn’t severe, the project will take about half an hour. If the clog is deep within your plumbing system or is a severe blockage, it can take two or more hours to remove the clog. For this reason, main line clogs tend to take longer, usually between two and three hours.
