"Workmen were very professional and courteous, cleared the drain and installed a new showerhead with hand held shower. I am satisfied. However they did not wear masks as other repairmen do."

"Benjamin Franklin responded to our request for service the morning after we called and left a message (the evening before). Notified us that a plumber would be sent earlier than the scheduled appointment if he became available sooner. Call service rep was very friendly, explained how the service call would be handled (and the costs). Acknowledged on-line coupon credit for service call resulting in diagnosis and repair as necessary. Plumber (Jordan) arrived on time, was very courteous and friendly, took measures to keep house and work area clean, explained the work recommended and costs. Repair was made expeditiously and a two year warranty on parts and labor was given. The service was pricey, but the result and the plumber's professionalism were exemplary--and the response time to our needs was very good (not an emergency). We have used Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for many of our plumbing needs--both water and natural gas and have been pleased every time. Again, pricey but very reliable."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can use vinegar to unclog a dishwasher. To do so, combine 4 tablespoons of white vinegar with 4 tablespoons of baking soda and pour the mixture down your dishwasher’s drain. Let it sit for 15 minutes, then pour a cup of hot water down the drain to flush everything out. Finally, run a rinse cycle on your dishwasher to see if the clog is gone.

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

Chemical drain cleaners can work to clear clogs in pipes, but their use should be approached with caution. These harsh chemicals can damage pipes over time, and they can also harm the environment. Use them sparingly and consider alternative methods such as using a plunger or a drain snake. If you have concerns about a persistent clog, it's best to consult a professional who can safely and effectively address the issue without causing further damage to your plumbing system.

Bleach is generally not recommended for your shower drains. Although diluted bleach can technically help clean your drain, it will not unclog your pipes. In fact, bleach can harm your plumbing system because it’s so powerful. The bleach can change the color of your sink and even corrode metal pipes and fittings.

Often, people reach for bleach because it's already in their house. But it's worth getting a plunger or a drain snake for the job instead. It'll be a lot less money to buy a new plunger than to pay a plumber to repair or replace damaged pipes.

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.
