"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

No. You should never pour old paint down a drain or sewer because it can clog pipes and pollute the environment. You must dispose of paint properly and safely. Different types of paint need to be disposed of in different ways—oil-based paints must be taken to a paint recycling center, while you can throw dried-out water- or latex-based paints in the garbage. 

Simple blockages can be cleared using household plungers or manual snakes, provided no severe plumbing issues exist.

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.

Anything you drop down your sink runs the risk of damaging and clogging your pipes. Hair, bits of food, and other debris can catch on the item and build up over time, causing a clog. Even if it’s not valuable, it’s definitely worth trying to retrieve the item, or at the very least, asking a pro for specific advice.

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.
