"Darrel was very knowledgeable about the tasks that he performed. He unblocked my washing machine drain, and repaired/replaced drains and pipes on my bathroom sinks, and repaired my toilet."

"FIVE STAR COMPANY .... First visit from Brooks Plumbing was on May 13th 2015 to run a new gas line so that I could use my gas dryer. They were able to accommodate my schedule and be available to do the job on the day I moved into my new house. They showed up on time and were very professional and did a top-notch job. They accommodated my request to switch location of the washer/dryer because of how doors opened. It was a little bit of a challenge since the dryer set up was where I wanted the washer. I have to say that plumbing is not really all that exciting but the way that the washer/dryer was hooked up and vented looked awesome ... very neat and clean install. Next 2 visits in August 2015, Johnathon installed 2 bathroom faucets, a kitchen faucet, a reverse osmosis water filtration system, a shower bar, and a roman tub faucet with handheld, The prices were good especially for the quality of workmanship. Very professional service, everything that was done was done well I plan to call Brooks Plumbing for any future plumbing needs and I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends."

"Very professional service. Price was as quoted and less than local competitors. Showed up a little late but contacted us to let us know he was running behind first. Took about an hour to complete the work. Would definitely use them again."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Liquid drain cleaners are harsh chemicals that can erode your pipes. To treat a slow drain or for preventative maintenance, pour hot water down the drain to break up gunk and help move it along. Make sure the water isn’t boiling hot (keep it under 140 degrees Fahrenheit) if you have plastic pipes. However, you’ll need to pull the clog out for bigger backups. 

Coke and other sodas do clean a clogged drain, so this is one of those urban myths that has some truth behind it. Coke and similar sodas are caustic and will provide some cleaning power to your drains. However, the power of soda pales in comparison to dedicated cleaners or even baking soda.

Drain clearing removes debris and clogs from drain pipes enough to allow water to drain properly. On the other hand, drain cleaning removes all of the material from the pipe so that water flows unrestricted, which is a longer-term solution. Your plumbing pro will be able to recommend the right service depending on the clog size, frequency of issues, and surrounding pipework.

Most blockages can be cleared in 1-3 hours, but severe issues may take longer.

If you have a sink stopper, it can feel more challenging to clean the drain without removing it, but here are a few simple steps:

  • Pour ½ cup baking soda into the drain using a funnel

  • Pour 1 ½ cups vinegar into the drain

  • Close the sink stopper for 15–20 minutes

  • Open the drain

  • Pour 2 cups of boiling water down the drain (be cautious as boiling water can damage some types of pipes)

If the drain isn’t unclogged, repeat the process.
