"Al did an excellent job replacing the faucets(bibs) and drain for my laundry closet. He even patched the cut-out sheet rock that needed to be made for the replacement. Other plumbers I got estimates from would not do the patching. Also, he replaced the cartridges for my shower valves. I’ll definitely call him again for any future work."

"Wilmar Plumbing was very responsive and empathetic towards my situation. They had to fix a problem caused by the previous plumber who installed my shower/tub drain incorrectly. I couldn't shower due to the leak. They treated my case like the emergency it was and Wilmar and his team showed up first thing. They fixed it diligently. They were so good, I hired them to install new bathroom sinks. These guys are great!"

"AJ with Chandler Plumbing arrived on time and quickly cleared our slow bathroom drain. AJ was professional, friendly and respected our home. The price was well below what we expected. I will definitely use Chandler should the need arise again. Highly recommend."

"The folks @ Mike Counsil have done work for us in the past, including the heater installation and unclogging/cleaning a backed up drain. Any time we've had work done by them, they are always right on time and very professional. They get the job done and clean up after they're finished to ensure there's no clean up for the customer. I highly recommend them for all of your plumbing needs."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

No. You should never pour old paint down a drain or sewer because it can clog pipes and pollute the environment. You must dispose of paint properly and safely. Different types of paint need to be disposed of in different ways—oil-based paints must be taken to a paint recycling center, while you can throw dried-out water- or latex-based paints in the garbage. 

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.

It’s sometimes difficult to distinguish a clog from a frozen drainpipe since ice technically causes a clog. If the temperature doesn’t tip you off, there are a few additional signs that your pipe is frozen. Look for condensation and frost around the pipes. Ice in pipes can cause a banging or clanking noise as opposed to a clog from a softer material.

You can unclog an AC drain line for free if you already have these household ingredients: water, vinegar, and rags. Alternatively, if you’d rather not deal with the mess, you can hire a pro to clear your drain line. If you go that route, an HVAC service call costs between $100 and $250.

The first rule of plumbing is nothing but water, toilet paper, number one, and number two go down the drain. 

To prevent clogs, get yourself:

  • A compast pail where you can clean plates, drain grease, and toss scraps and paper towels. 

  • Drain screens for the shower, tub, and bathroom sink to stop hair, jewelry, toys, etc. from going down the drain.

  • Trash cans for everything that shouldn’t go down the drain, like dental floss, hygiene products, and cat litter.

P.S.: If you do drop your priceless ring down the drain, take a deep breath, and then follow these steps to retrieve jewelry from your drain.
