"We used ARS Rescue Rooter on two different occasions during a 1 1/2 week period. They located problems that the city became responsible for and the second time they located and repaired a water pipe leak underneath the slab in one of our bathroom The people they sent, Shai, Kyle and Clint were professional, knowledgeable, clean and quick. Their work was high-quality and I have never seen such complete cleanup. I would highly recommend ARS Rescue Rooter to anyone seeking plumbing and drain work."

"Eric was very straightforward about the job and his honesty was obvious. I had previously hired another plumbing company that wouldn't give a straight answer on the simple task of unclogging a drain, so from now on I'll call this company"

"Andrew is very professional and does clean work, which is important to me. He responds quickly and came to our home in a timely manner because we could not use our sprinkler system during August in the desert. I can no longer do these repairs myself and am so grateful for his help. He explained everything to me beforehand and when he was finished with his work. I will definitely call on Andrew with any plumbing needs."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

A washing machine should drain the water used during its cycle through a drainpipe and out through the house’s plumbing. This is the same plumbing that sinks and shower drains run to, and if the U-bend is installed correctly, it shouldn’t smell. The total drainage from the house is then integrated into the city sewer system or, if you’re in the country, dispersed into a septic tank.

To keep window wells from filling up with water, you need to stay on top of maintenance. Remove debris as it fills up, and regularly loosen the gravel at the base if it’s become compacted. You can also reslope your yard to make sure water flows away from the window well (and your home’s foundation), and you can even install a window well cover to prevent debris from building up. Installing an actual drainpipe at the base of the well can also prevent window well drainage problems.

Plumbers use a variety of tools to help unclog the toughest of drain clogs, but the most common tools they use are drain snakes and augers. They try a plunger or drain snake to start, then move to heavy-duty augers, and finally try using a hydro jetter to blast away the clog with high-pressure water. Hiring a plumber to unclog a drain costs $125 to $300, largely depending on the extent and location of the clog and which of these methods is best for clearing it.
