"Was polite and professional but didn't have the tools needed to properly unclog my underground gutter drain which was clogged with roots. Tried a mechanical auger that he had but that was all he could do and only pulled thin roots which helped but didn't completely unclog the drain."

"Excellent service. The technician (I am blanking on his name) was very professional. He looked at the issue (clogged drain), gave me a couple of options, we chose one, he proceeded with unclogging the drain and voila, no more issue. Thank you!"

"Patrick showed up on time. Put clean "booties" on his feet. I had a few issues, and didn't know how he was going to quote my issues: 1) clogged bathroom sinks, mysterious water on floor on lower level 2) water pressure. Cut to the chase. He suggested I use a product for the clog; found the water issue, (a/c condensation drain clogged, and need new faucet. He could have quoted 3 different and large sum amounts. he didn't. His integrity was paramount. He showed me everything he was looking at and doing. I was involved in the process understanding WHAT and WHY he did the things that needed to be done or did. The cost was reasonable and fair. HE IS MY PLUMBER!"

"I'm so glad I used HomeAdvisor to find a plumber for emergency drain cleaning with great reviews!! Li came out from Suma Plumbing within 40 minutes and got to us by 9:00pm. He was able to snake the common drain line which had a bad clog and was backing up into the kitchen sink. So relieved that this was resolved the same night that we came home to this issue that could have been way worse without Suma Plumbing. I will use them again!"

"Very happy with what Rema did. He came on time, analyzed the problem, and cleaned the clogged drain for exactly what he said it would cost the night before. He was careful, methodical, and very professional. He was also very neat and cleaned up as he worked and after he was finished. He will be the first person I call for any plumbing problems in the future."

"Good work. Have had many people give estimates to replace sewer line but they were the only company to come out and use camera and equipment in FREE estimate (I was previously charged hundreds for a camera by another company) and specifically identify areas where they d dig and ended up replacing all the way under house for same cost. They did have to change days/times a couple times for estimate and work but my schedule was flexible and they notified promptly. It is expensive approx 8k but sewer line replacement is and they don t cut corners- do it to code. They even moved washer and dryer for me and offered to put back. One of the guys gave me the name of a person to repair the tile who happened to be working renovating my neighbor s house and he came a few days after they replaced the concrete and did a beautiful tile replacement - cannot even tell where they dug a hole."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.

It is not advisable to use drain cleaner in a washing machine. Drain cleaners contain harsh chemicals that can damage the internal components of your washer, including rubber seals, hoses, and even the drum. These chemicals can also react with any residual detergent or fabric softener, potentially leading to noxious fumes. If your washing machine is experiencing drainage issues, it's best to address the problem directly by inspecting and cleaning the lint filter, checking for clogs in the drain hose, or seeking professional repair services. Using drain cleaner in a washing machine is a risky solution that can cause more harm than good.

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

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.

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.
