"Tyler of Payton’s Plumbing did a fantastic job. He did what he said he would do promptly and efficiently. We would highly recommend him. Yesterday we had a leaking water heater and today we have a new water heater. Couldn’t ask for better service at a reasonable price."

"The job was done quickly. The plumber installed a new garbage disposal, fixed the sink faucet issue another plumber said was unfixable, and repaired a toilet. He was polite, efficient and cleaned up after himself thoroughly."

"We came home after a week of vacation and found that we had a hot water leak. We contacted Water Fixers and they sent out a plumber to check out the situation. After that we received a quote for the work to be done. We spoke to Lynda the Office Manager a few times and she was very kind and helpful. We also spoke to Victor, the Owner and he was very nice and professional. Victor explained to us what needed to be done to repair our slab leak. Fortunately the leak itself was small and had not done any damage so they did not have to rip up the floor. They did have to cut several holes under sinks, the hot water heater and in the ceiling in our laundry room as they had to put in new water lines and reroute them into our attic and down the walls into both bathrooms and the kitchen. We ended up having two plumbers doing the work and it took 4 days to complete the job. The two plumbers were very nice and worked very hard to get the leak repaired and made sure to verify that the repair was done correctly and that there were no leaks when they were done. The final bill was a bit more than the quote, but we believe that the charges were fair and we are satisfied with the work that they did. Water Fixers also took care of the leak detection themselves, which was really convenient so we did not have to have two different companies involved. We highly recommend Water Fixers for any plumbing job small or large."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Thankfully, it’s pretty rare to find a rat in your toilet. It’s more likely in larger cities with big sewer systems that can be feeding grounds for rats, but even then, you still shouldn’t fret. 

“I wouldn’t worry too much about rats coming up through the sewers,” Bradshaw says. “I’d say only one out of a thousand rodent customers we get actually have this problem. And of the 20 or some customers that have had this happen, they’ve all only had just one rat come up this way.”

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

If your drain doesn’t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.

Some experts estimate that descaling your cast iron pipes can extend their lifetime by upwards of 50 years, although there’s not a lot of research to prove it. But we do know that without proper maintenance, cast iron pipes can quickly rust—leading to more expensive issues like burst pipes or main line clogs.

It's advisable to have your sewer line inspected every three to five years to ensure its proper functioning and detect any potential issues early on. However, the frequency of inspections can vary based on factors such as the age of your sewer system, the type of pipes used, and your property's location. If you notice any warning signs like slow drains, foul odors, or sewage backups, it's essential to schedule an inspection promptly, regardless of the regular maintenance schedule.
