"I would highly recommend Evans plumbing to everyone! Chris came to clear out our whole house sewer blockage.. He went above and beyond what was requested. He was very helpful with suggestions about what we could do to stop further problems in the future. The pricing was fair and there were no additional or hidden costs. When the job was finished he cleaned up so well that you could not tell there had just been a problem."

"I had a clogged main line. I desperately just wanted a shower but I was terrified of the havoc that it would create at my home. I needed a plumber ASAP. Mr. Ramsey arrived within minutes, cleared up the problem and was on his way. He was very nice and incredibly efficient. I will definitely call him again if I have a plumbing issue."

Drain Cleaning 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.

To clean gunk out of a sink drain, pour in a half cup of baking soda, then 1 cup of white vinegar. The two will react chemically; let them fizz for 15 minutes, then rinse with boiling water. Repeat these steps if necessary for particularly dirty sink drains, and consider a drain snake if there are clogs.

To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.

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.

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.
