"Tony was very pleasant to work with. He accommodated my schedule, even with a big winter storm that had just rolled through. Tony and his team finished the project in about a day and a half and I couldn’t be more pleased! Not only was the job exactly what I needed/requested, but it was a very neat and clean job. His team respected my house and left the work area spotless. I will definitely call Tony if I ever need anything plumbing related."

Customers say: Quality work

"Mark told me he would be at my house at 10:30 and he was. He spent close to three hours to unclog the drain that backed up into my dishwasher. He took all the old plumbing from under the sink and replaced it with all new pipes and fittings. He tested everything to make sure there was no leaks before he left! Excellent job! I will recommend him to my family and friends."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Start by unscrewing the overflow valve, which is located on the wall of your tub between the floor drain and the tub spout. Gently insert a plumbing snake down into the pipe, move it back and forth, and pull it out. Remove any hair, debris, and soap scum that comes out with it. Repeat the process until the snake comes out clean, and then reinstall the cap on your overflow valve.

Drain clearing removes debris and clogs from drain pipes enough to allow water to drain properly. On the other hand, drain cleaning removes all of the material from the pipe so that water flows unrestricted, which is a longer-term solution. Your plumbing pro will be able to recommend the right service depending on the clog size, frequency of issues, and surrounding pipework.

Regrading your yard can often fix drainage problems. You can also try aerating the lawn to encourage better drainage or install a new drainage system to prevent water from pooling in certain areas.

If you drop jewelry down your sink, it can cause a clog, especially if it accumulates other debris on its way down. However, that is the least of your worries if you drop your favorite jewelry down your drain. If your gold band goes tumbling down the sink drain, don’t panic—refrain from running more water down the sink, and follow the steps above.

If your washing machine drain is clogged, that isn’t a good sign. Unlike toilet drains or kitchen sink drains, there isn’t matter that is easily broken up with a plumbing snake, and more care is required. If you’re in an old house or have mineral-rich water, there could be a buildup inside the pipe. Either way, if the blockage isn’t obvious and doesn’t dislodge with a snake, you need to call a pro—otherwise, you risk damaging integral plumbing.
