"Frank was on time, and in and out in about an hour. His work is thorough and exceptional. He advised me on how to maintain health drain system going forward since the problem was scale in the vent pipe leading up through the roof. The thing that most impressed me was his honesty."

                                   WHAT IS WRITTEN BELOW DOES NOT APPLY TO THIS COMPANY!!!!  
 

                                    I'd gotten this company confused with a company that I HAD used!!!!   


    I CAN'T say ANYTHING at all, good OR bad, about American Leak, simply because I hadn't had ANY dealings with them!

Wonderfully!  (M & D Leak Seekers, NOT American Leak) I'd had a brand new pump and filter installed on my pool ONE YEAR prior to this service, but had never been able to run it because it would not fill up with water.   Something was preventing the water getting from the pool, to the pump.   I think the technical term is that the pump would not "prime."    For one entire year, I'd had two different pool people TRY to get this pump to run.    One of them, the original installer, even sent my FIRST new pump back and installed a second new one, thinking that the new pump was defective.    Time & time again, they would come by and TRY to fix this pump, even bringing a special piece of equipment that cost $30,000 with them, to try to solve the problem.   At their suggestion,  I'd even had my cousin bring his scuba diving equipment, to dive down into the deep end of my pool and unscrew the plate covering the main drain.   Still.   No luck.  

Finally, I called a different pool company but they also couldn't find the problem.   They referred me to American Leak Detection.    When he (sorry, I forget his name, but he's the owner of American Leak) came out, he probably spent about a good 2 solid hours working on this problem.    No fancy or expensive equipment.    He felt that something was "blocking" the flow of water and just kept at it, I think by forcing air/water through the lines.    FINALLY, he saw something in the line that he could reach.    Using a wire coat hanger, he managed to pull out two items that had been the culprits.    One was a small plastic toy part.    The other was some type of plastic bottle cap that was just the perfect size to block the line.    Imagine!   I had bought this house with a pool in 2012, only to discover that the pool pump would not work, paid $900+ to have new equipment installed, and had yet, one whole year later, been unable to use my pool!    I was SO HAPPY when ALD fixed this problem, I jumped up and down and hugged the guy!!!    I can't recommend them highly enough!

"John was very easy to work with and he did a great job. His prices were competitive, he explained what needed to be done, and he corrected conditions that had been a serious problem for a long time. He was prompt and completed the work professionally. I would highly recommend John for drainage work."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

There are a couple of things you can do to help prevent your French drain grate from clogging. First, keep yard debris clear so it doesn’t wash into the drain and clog the grate. You can also install a screen or filter over the grate to prevent large pieces of debris from entering the access point.

To prevent drain clogs, perform regular maintenance and cleaning. Avoid disposing of substances like grease or coffee grounds down the sink. Additionally, installing and routinely using drain strainers can help catch debris and prevent blockages from forming.

If your drain line is clogged, your AC might stop cooling, shut down, or refuse to turn on at all. Otherwise, you might see your AC leaking water, find standing water or water damage near the unit, or notice a musty smell coming out of your air conditioner or vents.

If you try a drain snake and various DIY methods for unclogging drains to no avail, bring in a professional plumber to assess the situation. Also, if multiple drains in your home are backing up or you smell sewage, a visit from a plumber is best. You can expect your drain cleaning costs to fall around $250, and this can include an assessment of what’s caught in your plumbing and if there’s a larger, underlying problem. You should also consider calling a pro if you need to snake a toilet, as DIYing this could lead to a cracked fixture.

Clogs in a sprinkler valve can be caused by various factors, including debris in the water supply, sediment buildup inside the valve, or damage to the diaphragm. Debris and sediment can accumulate over time, obstructing the valve's passages and impeding water flow. Damaged diaphragms may develop tears or holes, leading to blockages and affecting the valve's ability to open or close properly. Regular maintenance and cleaning can help prevent and address these issues, ensuring your sprinkler valve operates smoothly.
