"Erick the supervisor gave us an accurate estimate, was polite and focused on getting our water on and pipes replaced. The plumbers who actually did the work arrived on time and worked diligently for two days to get our mess fixed. I recommend this business for any plumbing needs."

"It went well. A estimate as well as the work performed was prompt and the customer service was great. I was not able to see the work personally as I am in a different state. Pictures were sent and my tenants said they did a good job."

"Do not be put off by the appearance of this young man with his long blonde dreadlocks, red handlebar mustache and Kentucky twang. He is smart, hardworking, competent and honest to a fault. I have had him do several jobs for me and he won?t leave til the job is done right and you are pleased. The jobs he has done for me are: 1) clear obstructed house main drain 2) replace broken outdoor faucet 3) Dig up and pump out septic tank 4) Install septic tank alarm 5) Restore flow to sluggish bathroom faucet 6) Reconnect kitchen sink main drain and pump out ?sludge? from crawlspace Now that he is on his own, I don?t think he does septic tank work, but he can handle any residential plumbing job."

"The end result was not a Retaining Wall, as this implies. I hired KCS to install 4 Wing Walls with Headwalls. They did a great job, as the pictures will reflect. If you’re wondering why I have Four Stars instead of Five, it’s only because there’s always room for improvement. In this case, the improvement should focus on Front Office Communication. The crew was scheduled to start on a Monday. So I took the day off to be here. Mid-morning on that Monday, they still had not shown. I had to call the office to find out that they would be here on Tuesday because a previous job took longer than expected. I’m OK with that, EXCEPT I had to lose a vacation day because the office did not call me. I had to call them. AGAIN, the Team did a fantastic job and I FULLY RECOMMEND THEM. However, the office could get better and be more proactive at communicating schedule changes."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

You can drain a hot tub very quickly by using a submersible pump rather than the hose-sized drain at the bottom exterior of the tub. A pump can move up to 30 gallons per minute, draining your hot tub in no time. Using the regular drain can take up to two hours.

Professional tools include drain snakes, hydro jets, cameras for line inspection, and enzymatic or chemical cleaners for dissolution.

A small amount of diluted bleach is okay to pour down a garbage disposal. As part of your weekly garbage disposal maintenance, use 1 teaspoon of bleach with your concoction of ice cubes and lemon peels. Turn on the disposal and run the water until the blades chop up the ice cubes.

Any more bleach in your disposal can harden oils and greases in your drain, which can cause problems. Always wear gloves when working with bleach, and know that you really don’t need bleach at all—vinegar, baking soda, salt, and ice should do the trick.

You can unclog a double kitchen sink by plunging the side with the garbage disposal. Cover the drain hole on the other side first to avoid creating a mess. Plunge up and down until the water starts to drain. You can also pour in baking soda and vinegar to try and dissolve a clog.
