"We have an older home with older ductwork. We had Spencer and Brayton out and they cleaned and sealed our ductwork. They did a great job. Professional, great communication, attention to detail. They reduced our air leakage by 86%. We noticed an immediate difference in improved airflow, our cold spots are no longer cold spots. Thanks!"

"Todd was very laid back but extremely professional.  He was very helpful with suggestions and prices were very reasonable. He was able to accommodate my schedule as I was waiting for items to be delivered. I was able to leave him and one other worker in my home to do the items while I was at work and he left my home spotless with no left over construction debri to clean up.  I would definitely use him again.

"
The phone contact person was pleasant and responsive. They sent plumber out with 4 hours after I called. That was good. He attempted to "snake" the drain and attempted to use a plunger (mine) none of which worked. I have an inexpensive plunger. He didn't have one on his truck. Strange for a plumber not to have a basic piece of equipment like a plunger. In any event he said I needed to have the drain cleaned and another plumber for Golden Rule would have to do that. $100.00 for this service call. Fortunately they had the drain cleaning guy available  that afternoon. His name was BO and he was great! Very informative and he payed attention to the possibility of something else may be going on  other then cleaning the drain Much more experienced then the first plumber. He said before, I clean the whole drain (600.00) Lets try plunging it with my plunger. A much better one then mine. After 2 min of using his plunger it flushed immediately. Another 100.00 service call. So in the end I got double charged (200.00) for something that should have been solved with the first service call. Not about the money, it's the principle of the transaction. Will, I use them again? Possibly, but only because of BO. I have purchased 2 plungers, as recommended by brand by BO. There is a difference in plunger's for your info.

"Joe from JMS Drain Services was my service technician who arrived well within the window scheduled service time. Joe came in, inspected the sink to determine how to resolve my issue, took out the tool (snake apparatus) to clear the sink, and departed my premises within 15 minutes. I was pleased he resolved my clogged sink so quickly so I could rest after a night's work. Thank you again, Joe."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Plumbers use a variety of tools to help unclog the toughest of drain clogs, but the most common tools they use are drain snakes and augers. They try a plunger or drain snake to start, then move to heavy-duty augers, and finally try using a hydro jetter to blast away the clog with high-pressure water. Hiring a plumber to unclog a drain costs $125 to $300, largely depending on the extent and location of the clog and which of these methods is best for clearing it.

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.

Yes, short hair can clog a drain. While you might be tempted to blame the long-haired people living with you for a clogged drain, hair—no matter the length—can combine with soap scum and leftover shampoo to create a perfect storm of sticky mess that can cause your drain to slow down. 

If you’re not using a septic system, problems with your home’s plumbing won’t cause this—it’s a city problem. A large blockage in the municipal sewage lines may cause those lines to back up into your home. This is extremely unpleasant and can be a serious health risk due to bacteria and other contaminants. If this occurs, call a pro (or your city) immediately.

Regardless of the drain cleaner type you choose to use, they all work through chemical reactions that create heat. Thanks to the heat, the clogged hair begins to dissolve until it is able to be flushed away. To avoid clogs in your drain due to hair, use hair catchers and empty them out after every shower.
