"Mike and Todd did a great job. They replaced my main sewer line very quickly. This is an old house, they did material research to make sure the repair was correct, and they worked in tight space under the house. They were on time and fast, and the work was excellent."

"Outstanding service and communication from start to finish. Leo Plumbing solution was excellent from the moment I scheduled the appointment Leo confirming timing, providing updates on arrival, and following through exactly as promised. He listened carefully to my concerns and repaired both my main shutoff valve and hose bib efficiently and professionally. The pricing was fair and transparent, especially compared to another plumbing quote I received that was unreasonably high. I felt confident in the work being done and appreciated the honesty. I was referred to Leo Plumbing solutions by a family friend who highly recommended them, and I?m very glad I took that advice. Great team, great communication, fair pricing, and excellent results. They resolved my leak and water loss issue completely. Highly recommend! Services Plumbing leak detection, Plumbing pipe repair, Faucet repair, Faucet installation, Plumbing leak repair, Service not"

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

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

You can pour hot water down your gutter drain to melt ice and keep ice dams from forming. If the problems persist, consider investing in heat cables to run in your gutters. Heat cables can adjust based on the surrounding temperature to keep ice thawed.

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.

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.

If you're dealing with a clogged sink drain, you may be able to avoid removing the drain by using a plunger to dislodge the clog. While we associate plungers with toilets, they can do the same job with your sink drain. Be gentle, though, as forceful movements can push clogs further into your plumbing system and make them more difficult to remove. Additionally, make sure you’re using a sink plunger—with a flat bottom—and not a toilet plunger—which has a smaller bottom protruding from the larger flat piece.
