"Aaronâ s was able to get out sooner than other local company I contacted. Technician Alex is knowledgeable and good at explaining the situation as we figured out the problem over 3 visits. This was during our 2022-2023 160-year series of rainstorms. My basement and garage were flooding and I could hear the sump pump wasnâ t running. Replaced sump pump after finding the correct size. Then it ran but still flooded. He came back, figured out drain was blocked and where. This 60 year old house has had many changes over the years, so that wasnâ t easy. Replaced old drain in cost-effective way. All the while he maintained a positive professional attitude. I will call them again, including for a bid when I redo laundry room service."

"I asked Trejo's Lanscaping to trim my bushes and to weed in the front and back, and he gave me a reasonable quote for the work. I also asked two other companies to give me quotes for the work. I added an extra project to replace the weed fabric and mulch on the parking strip around the front of my property with new weed fabric and medium-sized river rock. I hired Teejo's Lanscaping to do both jobs. Arturo and his two assistants arrived on time to work on the project. They got as far as removing the weed fabric and mulch and trimming the bushes along the side fence when it started to rain heavily. We agreed to stop work until the weather was better. I had to wait a week before he was able to come back. After laying down the new weed fabric, they carefully poured the rock around the established plants. Arturo trimmed the front plants and cleaned up the leaf litter under the plants. He and Pablo moved to the back to weed and to trim the bushes. I was happy with the appearance of the front and back yards and the cost . I will definitely hire him again in the future."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Air gaps get clogged by a few different means. Over time, food and grime can collect in the air gap, leading to a blockage. Mineral deposits from hard water are a common problem. Mineral buildup creates a film in the air gap and tubing, which can cause flow issues, as well as attract debris. Homeowners with hard water may want to remove mineral deposits regularly to keep the air gap clean and clear.

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.

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.

While you don’t have to run out and immediately buy a new toilet at the first sign of a clog, if the toilet keeps clogging because it’s a low-flow or poorly designed model, a new toilet may be the way to go. If your toilet keeps clogging, you can try using less toilet paper, adjusting the fill valve, checking the toilet vent pipe on the roof, and using a toilet auger to make sure nothing is stuck in the pipe or trap.
