"My technician Robert Santiago was friendly, helpful, and prompt. Made a very stressful situation bearable. He thoroughly examined my system and its layout, and explained where the clog was explained could be occurring. He even gave me a bit of a history lesson on plumbing in old houses like mine, and the kind of problems that people typically face with them. He also told me exactly what he was planning to do, what equipment would be used, and how it worked. Worked on the problem for a couple hours until he got results. Very persistent! Cleaned up and sanitized the worksite as well. Also made a few suggestions as to some diagnostic measures I should look into to make sure I don’t run into the problem again. I’m very grateful for Zoom’s help and would recommend them to others!"

"The tech that came out did an amazing job.  He was professional and through.  He arrived a few minutes later than expected but the office called at the expected arrival time to say he was running a few minutes late and he arrived when they said.  The tech worked from 9:30am through 5:30pm with no breaks.  I ordered pizza late afternoon but he politely declined and kept working.  
While waiting for the chlorination in the pipes to wash out he went to all my sinks and cleaned out the sediment traps.  He also thoroughly explained how all the systems work and what any alarms might mean.  
When I was quoted on the water softener it was for a Repco Aquabubble 6AB system and when they came to install they installed a superior 3M system for the same price.  The tech explained normally the 3M system was a couple hundred more.  He also explained this water softener is more efficient and uses half the salt over the course of the year.  
I would definitely recommend Absolute Water System.  Dona in the office was easy to work with and patient with all of my questions.  She even took the time to put together a quote for what the yearly maintenance costs for each unit will cost as well as their fees to come out.  I had a lot of questions initially and even more once I did more research and she was great and answering everything.  Several questions she needed to reach out to the owner of the company but emailed me back within 24 hours.
Based on the research and quotes I received, Absolute saved me over a $1100 over the 4 other companies that quoted me.

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

If you try a drain snake and various DIY methods for unclogging drains to no avail, bring in a professional plumber to assess the situation. Also, if multiple drains in your home are backing up or you smell sewage, a visit from a plumber is best. You can expect your drain cleaning costs to fall around $250, and this can include an assessment of what’s caught in your plumbing and if there’s a larger, underlying problem. You should also consider calling a pro if you need to snake a toilet, as DIYing this could lead to a cracked fixture.

Keep your egress window from flooding by ensuring that the drainage system in the window well is clear and in good working condition. Inspect the window well every few months to remove any blockages and test the drainage system. It’s better to discover potential problems before your window well fills with water during heavy rain.

Yes, short hair can clog a drain. While you might be tempted to blame the long-haired people living with you for a clogged drain, hair—no matter the length—can combine with soap scum and leftover shampoo to create a perfect storm of sticky mess that can cause your drain to slow down. 

Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.

Water leaking through your basement floor is a good sign of a clogged drain, but another sign of a clogged basement floor drain can include unpleasant odors coming from the drain. Also, hearing gurgling noises when water drains from the basement or having other plumbing fixtures (like toilets or other drains) backing up is a good indicator.
