Q: How do you snake a bathtub drain?

• <div><p>Start by unscrewing the overflow valve, which is located on the wall of your tub between the floor drain and the tub spout. Gently insert a plumbing snake down into the pipe, move it back and forth, and pull it out. Remove any hair, debris, and soap scum that comes out with it. Repeat the process until the snake comes out clean, and then reinstall the cap on your overflow valve.</p></div>

Q: How long does descaling a sewer line last?

• <div><p>Some experts estimate that descaling your cast iron pipes can extend their lifetime by upwards of<b> 50 years</b>, although there&rsquo;s not a lot of research to prove it. But we do know that without proper maintenance, cast iron pipes can quickly rust&mdash;leading to more expensive issues like burst pipes or main line clogs.</p></div>

Q: How do I stop sludge buildup in my sewer line?

• <div><p>Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.</p><p>Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won&rsquo;t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to unclog a garbage disposal?

• <div><p>You can often unclog a garbage disposal in less than 10 minutes, though sometimes you might need longer if you&rsquo;re unsure what&rsquo;s causing the clog. For minor clogs, consider plunging the drain, flushing the drain with baking soda and vinegar, or using an Allen wrench to free the clog. If the clog is more severe, contact a local plumber.</p></div>

Q: Do drain cleaning experts need to be certified or licensed?

• <div><p>In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don&rsquo;t technically need a license, as they aren&rsquo;t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They&rsquo;ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to check your plumber&rsquo;s professional licenses before hiring.</p></div>

"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."
