"After trying several home remedies towards the end of a week we decided to secure professional help on a Saturday. Charlie returned our call within minutes and arranged to come towards the end of the day on Saturday. He explained what he was doing, was efficient, discovered and replaced an unrelated rusted pipe and cleaned up the inevitable unrestrained water from nearby surfaces."

"12-18-24. Great service work by Dave and Mike (?). Friendly professional guys. Knowledgeable of repairs needed. Installed new faucet in main bathroom; power-rodded slow water drain in bathtub; replaced pvc P-trap and angle stops piping underneath bathroom sink that was corroded and leaking. Neat and tidy cleanup afterwards. Average pricing. Great job! Will use this service company again."

"I had my water tank maintenance service from All Affordable Plumbing company this year. Customer service to book an appointment was very nice. Ben was very professional to complete water flush from the beginning to the end and shared extra winter prep tips on water pipes very nicely. This company has been my go to plumbing company since last year when I had repiping work. I won’t hesitate to recommend this company to my acquaintances and continue to call them for any possible plumbing works going forward."

"Patrick was promptly in figuring out what our issue was. He was able to rod the line and get the water to start draining out. Explained why the line clogged and what to do to help it from happening again. He will be my go to plumber"

"Great service! They were able to come next day and communicated clearly about the schedule to keep me up to date on when to expect them. They workers (Cam & Andre) called to let me know they were about to arrive, wore shoe covers, quickly assessed the problem, fixed the problem (rodding our drain), and were on their way. They were friendly and professional."

"Called for an estimate. No technician fee just to come out like the big companies try to charge. Told me their flat rate prices. Ended up becoming a large job. Started working on it right away. They were straight forward and transparent. Small family owned company. Quality work. Prices seemed very fair compared to my research online. Already recommended them to my neighbor and will go back to them for any future plumbing issues."

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts

There are a few reasons your snake won’t go down the floor drain. One common reason is a large obstruction in the drain that is causing a blockage. You can remove any debris you see in the drain before trying to snake it. In addition, the snake might not be long enough to reach the clog, or it might be the wrong diameter. 

If your drain doesn’t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.

Some homeowners use additives every month to help septic system performance, but according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the effectiveness of septic system and leach field additives is unknown. Further, additives made with organic solvents or alkali chemicals can actually be harmful to the necessary bacteria in a septic system.

It is okay to use a drain auger on a toilet, just make sure you are using the correct tip size. The auger is a plumbing snake with a protective sleeve to protect the porcelain toilet bowl from getting scratched. Using too large of an auger can cause the snake to loop back and damage the inside of the drain and plumbing.

Yes, drains are one common entry point for water bugs. However, water bugs may enter your home through various locations including doors, windows, pipes, and vents. Water bugs are drawn to the dark and moist atmosphere drains provide, and can easily find their way into your home through sewer drain pipes. You can stop water bugs from entering through drains by regularly cleaning your drains and repairing faulty drainage systems.
