"Everyone with this company is so polite and helpful. John and Patrick worked so hard to figure out why my new washing machine wouldn't drain properly. They were determined to figure it out before they had to leave. And they did! Two really hard working, polite, caring young men. I would highly recommend Seaside Plumbing."

"My experience with this company and the water solutions that they provided was phenomenal. Even though our home was quite a ways away from their normal service area, they were still able to send a team member, Zoe, out the next day to do a test of our well water. Zoe went through all of the different tests and thoroughly explained the results every step of the way. The next day they were able to send out a team to install the recommended water softening and filtration solutions. The guys that came out to do this work were quick, clean, and able to answer any of our questions. We could feel and taste the difference in our water immediately. We don't have to use as much soap for the dishes or for the shower as we used to thanks to all the hardness being filtered out. Our hair and skin feels much cleaner after a shower. The water not only tastes better, but we feel more at ease drinking it. My morning coffee tastes so much better and is much stronger than before (so now I can use less coffee). Ultimately, I highly recommend this company if you want to have a test done of your water quality are considering a water filtration system."

"We had a minor flooding incident in our basement caused by heavy rain.  I called MJ the next morning and John came out later that day.  Based on his assessment we elected to move forward with carpet and water removal immediately, which started later that night.  The two guys who came to do the work, Chris and Raymond, were exceptional!  They worked steadily until just after midnight to complete the initial cleanup job, including moving a lot of our stuff around the basement to facilitate their work.
The guys came back a few days later to remove any wall material that had been damaged.  After
inspecting the walls, we decided that no water had reached the drywall and it didn?t need to be removed/replaced.  This saved a lot of work, allowing me to begin the flooring replacement project much sooner.
We opted to have a French drain system installed to mitigate future risk as well.  It was a little challenging to schedule this project, but the guys completed that job in under a day as well.  They also inspected the walls and foundation, and made a few repairs where needed.
Melissa was a joy to work with throughout the process, always quick with an email or text reply to keep us informed about the
scheduling progress.  The overall cost was below what I expected to pay for such an extensive project and the service
was top-notch at every turn.
I hope the measures we now have in place will prevent a reoccurrence, but would definitely call MJ again to handle this kind of
flooding recovery.  They were fast, efficient, thorough, and cost effective.  Thanks for the great work!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Several signs can tip you off to a clogged dishwasher drain. At first, you may notice that it’s taking longer than usual for the dishwasher to drain, or you may hear gurgling sounds during the draining part of the cycle. You might also notice water backing up into your sink or excess food at the bottom of the dishwasher after a load. The most obvious sign, though, is seeing standing water at the bottom of your dishwasher after the cycle has finished.

Liquid drain cleaners are harsh chemicals that can erode your pipes. To treat a slow drain or for preventative maintenance, pour hot water down the drain to break up gunk and help move it along. Make sure the water isn’t boiling hot (keep it under 140 degrees Fahrenheit) if you have plastic pipes. However, you’ll need to pull the clog out for bigger backups. 

If you've discovered a rather frightening buildup of brown and black gunk below your shower cover, you're not alone. The smelly sludge is often a collection of mildew and biofilm. Biofilm comes from the breakdown of soap scum, hair, skin cells, and bacteria that collects during shower time. It's quite common in a humid space and relatively easy to clean with a gentle DIY cleaning solution such as baking soda and vinegar.

Sometimes, the drain is just too clogged—thanks, stubborn hair and soap scum. In this case, you’ll need a more powerful drain cleaner than you can DIY safely at home. But this doesn’t mean you have to choose a traditional drain cleaner. 

You can find biodegradable drain cleaners at your local home improvement store or online for those drains that need a little more oomph

While on the hunt for a formidable drain cleaner, the best options are non-chemical clog solutions that combine enzymes and bacteria.

There are many things that could cause your basement floor drain to back up. One significant cause of a drainage backup is flushing non-flushable items, such as wipes, paper towels, and facial tissue. Other causes of a backed-up basement floor drain include tree roots impeding the drain pipe or an accumulation of hair, oil, and grease.
