"Was able to advise me about getting a sewer clean out installed and what was causing the problem with backed up pipes. No repair was needed. This company is really honest and I will be using them again if I have a plumbing issue. Kyle was supper nice. Very helpful."

"The tankless water heater in the hotel we manage went down on July 3 2024. We have a wedding party coming in on July 5. All the plumbers near us either don't service our town or were not working because of the Holiday. Our small town of LaPorte does not have a population big enough to support a full time plumber. We eventually found our way to Angie's List and Plumb Crazy Plumbing responded. Vincent agreed to come to our town from Magalia 72 miles away...normally. There was a fire burning in Oroville that was blocking the shortest path. The new route added another 15 miles to the trip. Vincent arrived at 7PM and worked diligently until 10PM. Vincent returned on July 4th, yes on a holiday, and completed the Job. Vincent's work is clean and he took the time to explain about the new tankless water heater and answered our question. We appreciate Vincent and his company Plumb Crazy Plumbing. He is our plumber of choice . Thank you Vincent for going above and beyond"

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.

Clearing typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the blockage size and location.

There are several homemade solutions for clearing a clogged sink that don’t involve pouring harsh chemicals down your drain. Start by pouring hot (but not boiling) water down the drain. This can help dissolve and flush away grease and gunk. A splash of dish soap down the drain can also cut through fat and make it easier to clear the drain. For a more stubborn blockage, grab a plunger and give it a few firm pumps to dislodge the clog.

A clogged air gap can cause a dishwasher not to drain. There are, however, other potential issues that can lead to improper drainage. For example, if you have attached the air gap to a garbage disposal and forgotten to remove the knockout plug, wastewater may backflow into the dishwasher. Check that the air gap is installed properly, and then look for clogs in the air gap and dishwasher filters. 

Even if the shower drain doesn’t seem clogged or dirty, plan to clean it out about once per month—or more frequently if you or your family shed a lot of hair. It’s a good practice to remove any hair from the drain on a daily basis, as hair can accumulate fast and cause clogs in no time. You may also want to have a plumber thoroughly clean the drains in your home once every six months.
