"This is a great company to deal with! Anthony arrived exactly on time and took care of our water leak immediately. He then discussed our larger project of replacing our outdated polybutylene plumbing with pex. He explained in detail the whole process and provided a reasonable quote for doing the job. I was very impressed."

"Company called immediately after I logged an Angi query. Technician scheduled to come out the next morning, and he turned up early in the 4 hour window. Explained the process and then cleaned out the drain efficiently. Stayed to be sure that the drain worked OK; explained their 30 day warranty, and left after cleaning up."

"They installed a french drain and pump and installed water proofing on the walls.  Initially I thought some of the workers were not really the best, so I called and a manager came out and was very honest and acknowledged their faults and came out and fixed all the issues.  I was very impressed with this, he was very responsible.  They ended up doing a fantastic job in the end."

"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."

"Great. They responded quickly, explained things in detail, provided lots of options depending on our finances. The product was installed timely and exactly as specified. So far the French Drain has been working fine however we have not have any major storms or flooding to test that out."

"Worked with them to install french drain and sump in basement of home we recently purchased. There was an existing sump, but no french drain, and the location of the existing sump was inconvenient. Relocated sump to a corner where it was not in the way. Work was fast and efficient."

"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."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn’t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn’t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.

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 your kitchen is flooding, first turn off the water supply and electricity before entering the room. Next, focus on immediate flood control by cleaning up any standing water with a sump pump or wet-dry vacuum to prevent long-term water damage to your home. Open your windows and run any dehumidifiers you have handy. Finally, call a professional plumber to help find the source of the flood and repair it.

Although linear drains allow water to flow quickly and efficiently, they tend to clog more easily than traditional drains. Linear drains are flush with the shower floor, allowing soap scum and hair to potentially build up. They’re also longer than other drains, allowing for more space to let debris fall into the drainpipe. 

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.
