"Showed up on time and openly discussed original reason for the call. I mentioned that my drains had gotten plugged up over the weekend and they took care of it right away. Very professional and courteous. Left everything nice and tidy. I will certainly be calling them as the needs arise."

"We called the company late in the afternoon and they were willing to come out to take a look at the job immediately. Due to a prior engagement though, we made the appointment for the following day. Matt and Nick came out, looked at the job and discussed our options, and we arranged for the work to be done the next morning. Matt and Nick stayed in contact with us, calling and giving us updates as to â the planâ and their arrival time. The team arrived promptly and ready to get the job done. Two old, leaking outdoor anti-siphon spigots needed to be removed from the exterior brick face. The interior copper piping had to be cut in order to remove the old bibs and install the new ones. The guys performed this part of the job precisely and neatly! New bibs with a flange were installed on the exterior without any damage to the bricks. Great job guys! Steve, Matt, and Nick appeared to work great as a team and completed the job in an efficient, timely manner. All work was completed professionally and neatly. Everything looks really nice, inside and out. The team also gave us what sounds like a couple of good recommendations for additional work we would like completed. We will definitely use Steve Beaton Plumbing again. Thank you so much guys!"

"Branson graded our driveway and did a fantastic job! He responded quickly after a major rainstorm washed out parts of the road. The 1/4 mile driveway was repaired and graded before we had any more storm damage. The job was started right away and finished on schedule. I would definitely hire Branson Enterprise again."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

French drains may fail when they become clogged with soil granules that slip through the pores of the landscaping fabric and through the holes in the pipe. 

Over time, this debris can build up inside the pipe and prevent water flow. To prevent this failure from happening, regularly flush out your French drain and keep debris away from the inlet grate.

If your washing machine drain is clogged, that isn’t a good sign. Unlike toilet drains or kitchen sink drains, there isn’t matter that is easily broken up with a plumbing snake, and more care is required. If you’re in an old house or have mineral-rich water, there could be a buildup inside the pipe. Either way, if the blockage isn’t obvious and doesn’t dislodge with a snake, you need to call a pro—otherwise, you risk damaging integral plumbing.

No, it is not advisable to spray pesticides down the drain in your home. Most drinking water and wastewater treatment systems are not properly equipped to remove pesticides. Should pesticides infiltrate waterways, they can cause harm to plants, fish, or other living things. In most areas, pouring pesticides down the drain is illegal due to the potential harm it causes. 

While technically possible, it is unlikely that a clogged toilet will fix itself. Clogs caused by water-soluble materials like toilet paper or human waste may eventually break down in the water, allowing flow to resume. However, this can take time, and any clogs from solid objects require manual removal. In most scenarios, especially if you don't have another bathroom, it is best to fix the clog yourself or call a plumber.

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.
