"I hired them to unclog a toilet. Got a next day appointment. Patrick was helpful and courteous in scheduling and quoting the job. Justin came early and asked questions to understand the problem and what I had already tried to clear the drain. Within 15 minutes he had the drain running. Good service at a good price. I would use them again."

"Zoom Drain is a company that I would use again. I needed a gas line removed and a duct vent relocated in my laundry room, zoom drain came, assessed the job and gave me a reasonable price to fit the job. Jonathan was very professional and polite, he explained in detail what he would have to do how long the job would take and made sure he addressed all of my questions. I didn’t feel pressured to hire them on the spot, he allowed me time to speak to my husband and set a date for the job. Upon walking me through the job Jonathan pointed out to me plumbing problems that I had from work that another company had just done and I told him my concerns with the work that was done and with no questions asked he told me he would fix it for me. I really appreciate when I get workers who are honest and really want to do the job and do it correctly and this company has shown me that I can trust and count on them to do the job."

"Called them for 2 primary reasons: They are extremely well rated on Angie's List, and they're only about 4 miles from our house, making it probable that we could get the drain unclogged fast. They came within 30 minutes, were very professional and fixed the drain quickly. Only issue was the price, which would have been $263 had we not had their 15%-off coupon for first-time Angie's customers. Given that another well-know company in the area used to advertise "$59 to fix any clogged drain", we expected something less than the $223 it cost, However, we're aware that plumbers are expensive, and $59 strikes us as unreasonably cheap, so perhaps the $223 was normal."

"The work was completed quickly and successfully. My issue is with the pricing and the sales tactics. The technician initially said it would cost $439 to clear a drain, then said there was a $50 coupon that he d apply that takes it down to $389. To clear a drain!? So when I said no, he called his manager and got last months discount of $199. In the meantime he also informed us that he was a professional. In the end, we paid the $199 and it took him about 20 minutes to clear the drain. That's $600 / hour - pretty good return. I'm a professional too, but have never been billed at even $200 per hour. If he had just started at the $199, I probably would be writing a 4.5 star review. To me, even $199 is high to clear a drain, but it's probably consistent with other local companies. And I wouldn't have felt that I needed to negotiate to get a reasonable price."

"After a plumber told me that the cause of leaking pipe was pinholes caused by very acidic water I called several companies. I decided to go with Orbit because Madison answered all my questions and concerns. I Their solution addressed all my needs. We scheduled and the systems were installed by Dylan, who was professional and efficient. He answered my questions and told me what I needed to know to feel comfortable with my new system. He also cleaned up beautifully, leaving my garage in perfect order. In the time since installation there is a noticeable difference in the water. I also feel like my skin is benefitting from the softer water. and the acidic levels in my well water are controlled."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

You should flush your AC drain line once every three months to keep it clear of debris and buildup. Keeping your AC drain line clean prevents clogs, backups, mold growth, and extra wear on your AC unit. If you live in a humid area or have several furry pets, up your cleaning schedule to once a month.

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.

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.

A washing machine should drain the water used during its cycle through a drainpipe and out through the house’s plumbing. This is the same plumbing that sinks and shower drains run to, and if the U-bend is installed correctly, it shouldn’t smell. The total drainage from the house is then integrated into the city sewer system or, if you’re in the country, dispersed into a septic tank.

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.
