Born and raised in Orange County I started Prolific Plumbing Inc. with two main goals, to serve the greater OC with honest quality service at an affordable price, and for employees to have a work place that creates positive reinforcement for everyone to succeed and be happy! I have over 10 years of trade experience, I’ve provided service to thousands of homeowners, trained by some of the industries top master plumbers and leading companies here in Orange County, and graduated from Wyotech Technical School for plumbing technology in 2012. I want to be your neighborhood plumber and provide all your plumbing wants and needs for the rest of your life! So give me a call!

"Would not trust or recommend. I had called prolific plumbing because of their stellar reviews. Kody seemed like he knew what he was talking about and sounded honest. So I explained we had a strong sewage smell coming out of our sink and he agreed to come by and see what the issue was. Appt day comes and he is with his helper. They start checking my pipes and drains and he tells me it's going to cost $350 just to remove my dishwasher bc they need to investigate further. I am desperate to find the cause of the smell and even thought it's criminally expensive just to remove the dishwasher I agree. Then they do more investigating and tests. And he floods the cabinets under my sink with water and tells me I have a pipe leak. Then he snakes my drain and runs a camera and tells me my pipes are installed incorrectly and I need to remove my cabinets, break the concrete and repipe the entire thing. What the h***. Kody then snakes the drain and pulls out mud and grease and says I should Hydrojet my pipes to buy me more time since I told him there was no way we could afford to do the concrete and repipe. He charges $550 just to do the hydrojet. for this. That is on top of the $350 so now my total is $900 and he offered me a $50 discount. Of course by this time he's scared me to death with all his talk of how everything is wrong with our plumbing. So I dismally agree to the hydrojet. He does it and runs the flood test and water is still coming out of the pipes under the sink. So basically the hydrojet did nothing and Im out $850.00 I decide to get a second opinion and had another plumbing company come out. They immediately fix the issue by connecting my drain to the correct pipe and confirmed there is no slab leak The problem was my drain was connected to a pipe that went no where. Something Kody should have told me and seen with his camera and all the "tests and investigating" that was done. All my plumbing issues were resolved without me having to break the concrete, remove the cabinets, or do any of the other crazy and expensive things Kody had suggested. I am horribly disappointed and upset with Prolific Plumbing. Either Kody doesn't know what he is doing or he is just trying to get the most money that he can out of trusting customers like myself who don't know any better. I would definitely not recommend or refer Prolific Plumbing unless you literally want to throw your money away or get conned."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

You only need to pump the septic tank. The leach field allows the liquid and waste to naturally seep into the ground, so there’s no need to pump the leach field. You should call a local septic tank pumping service to remove the materials from the tank every three to five years. Without pumping the septic tank occasionally, solids could flow into the leach field pipes and clog them.

A well does not run out of water because the groundwater continues to refill with rainwater that seeps through the ground. If the well is too shallow or there is a drought, a well can run dry or be short in supply. It’s important to have a well deep enough to source enough water for your home’s use. Deeper wells tap into more groundwater reserves. If your well is not producing enough water, you may need to redig your well.

How often you need to pump your tank depends on the size of your tank and how many people live in your home. The average recommended frequency is every three to five years. However, your tank may need more or less frequent pumpings than that. For example, a single person with a 1,000-gallon septic tank may only need to pump it every nine to 12 years, while a five-person family with the same sized tank may need to pump it every two to four years.

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

While dry wells are helpful for dispersing excess rainwater from the roof or around the house, there are some downsides. For example, if you install a gravity flow dry well, it can take a long time to release the water depending on the dry well’s depth and the permeability of the soil. 

There’s also a risk of overflowing the dry well if you don’t have one large enough to handle the amount of rain in your area. The biggest disadvantage is that it’s hard to clean out a dry well, and sediment buildup can make the dry well less effective.
