"Jim was very quick to respond and answered all of my questions. They were very easy to work with and got my water heater replaced in a very timely matter. I was not home when the project took place, but my dad was very impressed with the plumbers. There were a couple of issues with not being able to drain the old water heater due to sediments and some leaking when they removed. They had put towels down but a few rugs still got wet. Not really a big deal. So thankful they were able to get it done so quickly. Would definitely recommend Jim and his team."

"I had a few quotes, most of which were very high, when I contacted Todd. Todd was great at communication. While I had to chase the other bids and call them over and over, Todd actually contacted ME twice to make sure he got me a quote. He was fast, polite and courteous, and even fixed a broken cabinet in my kitchen for free while giving me a quote. That really sold it to me. :) Todd was excellent. He answered all of my questions, communicated quickly and clearly on scheduling. He also suggested that I try a new faucet to fix some water pressure issues with my kitchen sink, and boy was he right. It was like night and day! The install took only half a day, and it looks awesome. Everything went super quickly and smoothly, I almost can't believe how easily it all went. I would hire Todd again in an instant. I can't wait until I have money for another project!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.

Septic tanks can clog if they aren’t pumped every few years since solid waste accumulates inside of them. Your tank might also clog if you have a habit of flushing anything other than human waste or toilet paper. Items like diapers, baby wipes, paper towels, cat litter, and personal hygiene products should never go down your pipes.

Start by pouring hot—but not boiling—water down the drain. The heat of the water may be enough to break down the clog. You can also try ½ cup of dish soap or 1 cup each of white vinegar and baking soda. If you choose a chemical unclogging product, ensure it’s appropriate for toilets to avoid damage.

An AC drip pan may stop draining if there’s a clog where the drip pan connects to the drain line. Clogs can form from a lack of cleaning or from rust or corrosion buildup. Cleaning the drip pan at least once per month lowers the chances of debris clogging the drain line.

There are several steps you can take to prevent your AC drain from clogging. This includes cleaning the drain line at least every three months, changing the filter every one to three months, and getting your AC serviced annually. Also, if any problems arise with your AC, hire an HVAC technician to deal with them ASAP.
