"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."

"Mr. Aquino was very nice. He did say our sewer line was draining into a septic tank instead of the city sewer. The City has verified that it is hooked up to city lines. I don't know if the problem is fixed or not. Only time will tell, but I would use the A-Team again and recommend them to others."

"It was a pleasure working with Isaac and his professional team during our shower and roman tub renovations. Our bathroom is amazing due to Isaac's knowledge, suggestions, passion and pride in his work. Corey is the tile master who created the spa theme we were looking for. They respected our home and cleaned up every day. We will be looking to Isaac for any future plumbing needs."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

With a one-way cleanout, you can access your sewer line from one direction. Depending on the way it curves, a plumber can either access the side of the pipe that goes into your home or the side that goes to your yard. On the other hand, two-way cleanouts allow pros to access both sides of the sewer line, thanks to their dual-pipe design (they’re usually U-shaped).

Professional plumbers use many high-grade chemicals to unclog drains. Many use hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid, when it comes to extreme blockages. 

The P-trap (or S-trap in older homes) under your shower is designed to prevent sewer gas from coming back up, so you shouldn’t normally experience foul odors coming from your shower drain. If you do, the vent stack that introduces air into your plumbing system may be clogged, or you may have a more severe sewer main blockage. In either case, hire a plumber to fix the issue for you.
