Q: Can I unclog my own drains?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-snake-a-drain.htm">snake minor drain clogs</a> yourself, provided they sit within a foot or two of the drain itself, but it&rsquo;s usually best to hire a professional plumber regardless. Even experienced DIYers have a high chance of accidentally pushing the clog further into the drain using a drain snake or another tool, so hiring a plumber is the ideal course of action. A professional plumber can use camera equipment to locate and identify the clog, and remove the entire blockage to fix your issue permanently.</p></div>

Q: How do you unclog a garbage disposal with standing water?

• <div><p>For disposal clogs with standing water, use a sink plunger and place it over the garbage disposal drain. Push the sink plunger up and down the drain about six to eight times before lifting. If the sink drains, the clogged food particles are dislodged from the drain. If there&rsquo;s still standing water, repeat the steps until the standing water clears out. </p></div>

Q: Does flushing a clogged toilet make it worse?

• <div><p>Yes, continuing to flush a clogged toilet is not likely to break up the clog. Instead, it will continue to put pressure on the clog while filling the bowl with more water, which can potentially cause the toilet to overflow&mdash;leading to an even bigger mess. Rather than repeatedly flushing, use a toilet plunger or plumber&rsquo;s snake to dislodge the clog. </p></div>

Q: Can frozen pipes cause a toilet to stop working or become blocked?

• <div><p>Yes, frozen pipes can prevent a toilet from working correctly. If the pipes are frozen, water cannot flow, which means your toilet tank won't be able to refill after a flush. This will prevent the toilet from flushing again. Depending on which lines are frozen, the ice can also block the drain pipe, preventing water from flushing away.</p><p>As a temporary workaround, you can manually add water to the tank for each flush. To clear a frozen drain pipe, you can try filling the toilet bowl or tank with warm water and flushing to help thaw the ice. However, the best long-term solution is to unfreeze the pipes to get your toilet back in working order.</p></div>

Q: How do I clean my sewer line from my house to the street?

• <div><p>First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap&mdash;you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don&rsquo;t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart. </p></div>

"All three jobs went great. For the water heater replacement Lewis came to my house at a convenient time for me, removed the heater changed out the rotted pipes and installed a new one with warranty. The price was great too. This job was time sensitive and he made me a priority to get it done. For the bathroom tub drain unclog he was very professional and did a great job. My garbage disposal was leaking and I came home to a pool of water in my cabinet and on the floor. Lewis came out quickly to resolve the issue for me. He replaced everything under the sink and showed me what he was doing each step of the way. I think that he is a great plumber if you want to get quality work and learn about each job too."
