"Jason responded to my early morning request quickly and showed up at my house the same morning. He recognized the problem with our water heater, got it drained, disconnected, and removed before he had to leave for another scheduled appointment. He also recommended someone to look at the damaged pedestal. After the repairs to the pedestal, Jason was back promptly the next morning when he said he would arrive to install the new water heater. He was done quickly, cleaned up everything, and even let my wife know that there would most likely be air in the pipes that would cause sputtering and noise when each faucet was turned on. Consummate professional and highly recommended."

"Eduardo did an excellent job installing our tankless water heater. He was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain the entire process. Installation was clean and organized. Our new system works perfectly, and we?re already noticing the difference in efficiency and hot water availability. If you?re looking for an honest and reliable plumber, this is the person to go to! I definitely recommend Cortes Plumbing Service. & Drains."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Snaking a drain can take as little as a few minutes for small, simple clogs, up to two hours or more for tough clogs located further down the drain line. For tougher clogs, a professional drain cleaner can likely get the job done much more quickly because they have the necessary tools and expertise. However, your drain cleaning pro might not be able to give you a firm time estimate until inspecting the clog and its surrounding plumbing.

To keep your toilet from clogging, you can use less toilet paper. You can also use a liquid toilet plunger to break up any clogs and keep the toilet drain and pipes clear. When it comes to a clogged toilet, the best route is prevention by using less toilet paper and making sure the mechanisms are all working properly.

For homes with a septic tank, harsh chemicals like those found in drain cleaner or bleach aren’t recommended. Some chemical drain cleaners can disrupt the balance of bacteria in the septic tank or damage your pipes. For homes with a septic tank, you can choose drain cleaners specifically formulated for use with septic tanks or go with a drain snake. When in doubt, make sure you know who to call for a clogged drain. 

As a preventative measure, hydro jetting should be done every one to two years. However, the best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age and condition of your pipes, how prone they are to clogging, how often the sewer line is used, and the type of waste disposed of in the system. If you frequently experience clogs or are unsure, it's best to ask a licensed plumber for a recommendation specific to your plumbing system.

Yes, flushing a clogged toilet can make it overflow. While flushing the toilet may push enough pressure through the system to dislodge the clog, this is unlikely. Your best bet is to use a plunger and hope the suction can break up whatever is blocking the pipe. If this doesn’t work, use a plumbing auger or call a pro to help.
