"Ryan was perfectly on-time and was a plumbing scholar and a gentleman. We had a simple drain replacement under a new sink. Going to Western saved me at least another day of trying to figure out proper parts and doing the install myself, and it also saved my wife's ears from hearing my salty language."

"I called Ca-Tech on a Saturday morning to check my water heater, and I was impressed that they were able to come later that morning. Albert arrived when he said he would and was very personable and very professional. He gave me a quote for a repair and also to replace my water heater. I choose to replace the water heater. When Albert returned later that week, he came on time and was very professional with the way he did the work. I liked that he kept me informed. I will definitely call Cal-Tech Pluming again."

"Outstanding Service from John at Drain City Plumbing Services I cannot say enough great things about my experience with John from Drain City Plumbing Services. He came out to unclog my shower drain, and from start to finish, his professionalism truly stood out. John arrived exactly when he said he would, was courteous and respectful, and immediately put me at ease. He took the time to thoroughly explain what was causing the problem, what steps he was taking to resolve it, and how I could help prevent the issue from happening again in the future. I really appreciated that he didn’t just fix the problem—he educated me along the way. His work was exceptionally clean and neat. He treated my home with care, cleaned up after himself, and made sure everything was working perfectly before he left. It’s refreshing to find someone who takes such pride in their work and genuinely cares about providing excellent customer service. I would absolutely use Drain City Plumbing Services again!"

"David came out after hours to clear a badly clogged drain for us, and we couldn?t be more grateful. We had water backing up and were really stressed, but he arrived quickly, was very professional, and explained everything clearly. He used hydro jetting to thoroughly clean the line, and you could immediately tell the difference ? the drain has been flowing perfectly ever since. What really stood out was his attitude and work ethic. Even though it was late, he took his time to do the job right and made sure everything was clean before leaving. Fair pricing, honest service, and top-notch work. Highly recommend David for any drain or sewer issues!"

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

The spin cycle on your washer should initiate draining, but if you still find leftover water in the washing machine tub, you may need to drain it manually. To manually drain a washing machine, you’ll need to turn off the power supply and locate the drain hose, filter, and pump. Open or disconnect these parts and let the water drain into a bucket.

Some homeowners use additives every month to help septic system performance, but according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the effectiveness of septic system and leach field additives is unknown. Further, additives made with organic solvents or alkali chemicals can actually be harmful to the necessary bacteria in a septic system.

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. 

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.

You can drain a hot tub very quickly by using a submersible pump rather than the hose-sized drain at the bottom exterior of the tub. A pump can move up to 30 gallons per minute, draining your hot tub in no time. Using the regular drain can take up to two hours.
