"Drain Mechanics did an awesome job with my condo water shutoffs and toilet replacements. They took care of all the HOA paperwork and where able to get us scheduled quickly. Jose did a great job overcoming the many obstacles that this old building threw at him and got the job done. I would highly recommend Drain Mechanics"

"Ricky came to do a simple repair to the drain in the kitchen sink . Took him a few minutes. He asked if I had any other concerns since you have to pay hourly rate might as well make use of the time. The faucet on the sink needed minor fix so he fixed that as well. Nice guy. I would hire him for future work."

"?????????? Absolutely Outstanding Service! I can?t say enough good things about Family Plumbing! I had a major drain line breakage, and they came out right away to diagnose the issue using their camera inspection equipment. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and honest ? no guessing games, no upselling, just clear communication and quality work. They walked me through everything they saw on the camera, explained the cause of the problem in detail, and gave me options that fit my budget. The team worked quickly and left everything clean and tidy when they were done. It?s rare to find a company that truly cares about both their work and their customers, but Family Plumbing exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend them to anyone in Jensen Beach or the Treasure Coast looking for reliable, trustworthy plumbers. I?ll definitely be calling them again for any future plumbing needs!"

French Drains questions, answered by experts

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.

French drains may fail when they become clogged with soil granules that slip through the pores of the landscaping fabric and through the holes in the pipe. 

Over time, this debris can build up inside the pipe and prevent water flow. To prevent this failure from happening, regularly flush out your French drain and keep debris away from the inlet grate.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.
