"I've been using Make It Drain for years. The first time I called Make It Drain was after reading a ton of positivity about their service from my neighbors on the Next Door app and I was not disappointed. My call was returned quickly, Marc and his colleague Ean showed up on time for a Friday afternoon appointment to inspect my hard-to-find-parts-for leaky bathtub faucet. After inspecting it, they said they'd need to call around for the correct part and get back to me with a quote. Marc called back on a Sunday with two options for me so we could get it repaired quickly. I selected the one I wanted and when they showed up with the part to replace, Marc told me they'd gotten it for less than he originally quoted me and passed that savings down to me. Talk about an upstanding business! And to top it off, they even helped clean up the flood in my bathroom when my stupid brother turned the main water back on while they were in the middle of the repair. (Oy.) I've since used them to replace a fancy kitchen faucet and service my tankless water heater. They are always on time and professional, clean up any mess made and have very fair prices."

"They came out once to snake a tub and it seemed ok when they finished but later that night realized I hadn't run it long enough before they left and the draining actually wasn't satisfactory. Called them the next day and they came out and snaked again, under the warranty, and started draining fine. During the process it was recommended that I may want to replace tub drain because it was old. Tony came out a few days later, provided an estimate, and 2 days later his team was here to do the work. What I liked about them was the communication with Angie at the office, their punctuality and customer service in general. That means more to me than the actual work. I have to assume they did good work but I'm not crawling under the house to find out, and, it's not my area of expertise anyway, so fingers crossed. Everything seems to be working great. Thank you, Tony's Plumbing."

"The Drain City Plumbing, Inc. this company was absolutely the best. I have an older building with cast iron drains and main line. They did exactly what they said they would do. I was using another company but now Drain City plumbing is my go to. They came when they said and finished very timely. Also their prices are very reasonable. Look at the pipes they removed and replaced!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Service, Integrity, and Communication We had SoCal 1 Plumbing & Rooter handle a job on our exterior drain pipes, and the experience exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Not only was the work itself done extremely well, but what truly set this company apart was their professionalism, transparency, and genuine care for us as homeowners. Their executive manager, Shane, was personally on site to diagnose the issue, provide a in depth explanation, organize his crew, and ensure everything was handled correctly. He even returned to confirm that the job was completed properly. Having direct access to a manager who was knowledgeable, responsive, and willing to answer questions made a stressful situation feel completely manageable. I could call Shane at any point to bounce questions off of him, and every recommendation was explained thoroughly and honestly. They took the time to help us understand the severity of the problem, and exactly whats needed to fix"

They were professional and skilled. I am happy with the service and their fair pricing. Don’t bother shopping around and waste time give them a call directly."

"We just finished remodeling our condo. Unfortunately, we had a lot of issues with our contractor's plumber, so we decided to hire another plumber to finish the fixtures and appliance installations for us. In comes KennyWe had 2 extensive walk-through's with Kenny before he started and shows him EXACTLY what was being asked of him, and all the installs that were "unique" because we knew we had some special installs. None of them read any of the instructions that came with the appliance, despite us telling them that they should because some of our units were new to market. As a result, they neglected to take out (4) 7" bolts from our combo washer/dryer, causing us the 10-year warranty that we had paid for and almost breaking our unit. They also had no idea how to install a counter-top sink where it doesn't move. The sink STILL moves around and he still hasn't figure out that he just needs to put some silicone underneath to prevent it from moving around. In the end, they installed everything but they were extremely dirty. They left shoe marks on every single wall that was near them, causing us to hire our painter back to repaint some of the walls because it wouldn't clean. They left the packaging to the appliances and the fixtures everywhere, where as all of our other vendors cleaned up after themselves. They were not resourceful in figuring out unique solutions to any problem that came up; I basically had to guide them along. On a positive note, Kenny and his team are very kind and honest people, which is why I've given him a much better rating that I would have if they weren't. Kindness, respect and punctuality say a lot about a vendor. I just don't think they're cut out for new construction. They're probably better suited for regular repairs."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to unclog a drain varies based on the location and severity of the clog. For simple clogs within your home, such as in a sink, toilet, or shower, hiring a plumber typically costs between $110 and $350, with an average of around $200. Snaking a toilet or sink usually costs between $110 and $275, while a bathtub or shower clog costs about $225.

For a more serious clog in the main sewer line, the cost is higher. Clearing a main line clog generally costs between $200 and $600, with an average of about $380. However, prices can range from as low as $100 for snaking a minor clog to over $1,600, particularly if advanced methods like video inspection and hydrojetting are needed for a large or hard-to-reach blockage. Some severe main line clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear depending on factors like the cause of the clog, its distance from an accessible cleanout, and whether the pipe is located beneath an occupied space (e.g., in an apartment building). You may be able to save money on minor clogs by using a drain snake or bladder yourself.

Your dishwasher drain hose may have a clog if your dishwasher is full of water, your dishes aren’t getting cleaned, or water takes a long time to discharge into the garbage disposal.

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

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.
