"Paul and John were able to come the same day I called for a clogged drain with sewage backing up into my shower. So disgusting. Within a half an hour everything was cleared out and cleaned. He even cleaned the screen on my faucet and cleared a slow drain in my sink. Paul had given me a price range and charged me the lowest estimate. They were prompt, polite and I would highly recommend Ace."

Customers say: Quality work

"Todd , the owner of at “First Servive LLC”was a 5 star PLUMMER !! When I called him he gave me a quote over the phone when I explained the problem and came out to our home the next day. Our hot water heater was leaking onto the floor and water was only getting warm. He found the problem fast and installed new elements / thermostats in the upper / lower panels on our 50 gallon tank .He checked our whole system and tested it. Todd cleaned up the whole area when done and we talked after in our kitchen for about half hour. He was fast, pleasant , clean , and very reasonably priced!!! I would highly recommend “First Service, LLC. Plumming , for your plumming needs! I now have a great PLUMMER, with only a phone call away!! 5-STAR."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can pour water down the toilet to help it flush. For each flush, you’ll need 1 to 2 gallons of water for newer toilets or 3 to 5 gallons of water for older toilets. Rather than dumping the entire bucket in all at once, pour the water in slowly for the best results. If you’re pouring water down the toilet to help it flush after a clog, only use 1 gallon of hot water.

While there is no specific “best” method to clear hair out of a drain, several options work well. Using a combination of baking soda and vinegar to dissolve the hair clog is a great and easy way to help clear the drain. Drain snakes are also effective for more severe clog buildups. 

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.

While technically possible, it is unlikely that a clogged toilet will fix itself. Clogs caused by water-soluble materials like toilet paper or human waste may eventually break down in the water, allowing flow to resume. However, this can take time, and any clogs from solid objects require manual removal. In most scenarios, especially if you don't have another bathroom, it is best to fix the clog yourself or call a plumber.
