"Snoop Eising was a cordial, friendly, and very knowledgeable inspector who explained everything about our basement water issues in a very professional manner. We were well informed about the water proofing system that Groundworks will install. Snoop really knows his stuff!"

"My pump died on me around 8:00 p.m. one night and Staydry sent someone right over the same night and had the pump replaced in 30 minutes and I haven’t had any issues since. I will definitely call them for any further issues I have with my basement."

"Tuesday September 28th, 2021 Nobody does it better than KT Clean, owned & operated by Kathryn Mills. My wife has our home and offices in Midland Michigan cleaned and maintained by KT Clean & we are more than completely satisfied. So much so, that our adult & married children also use KT Clean for all of their cleaning needs. In addition to general housekeeping our family has enjoyed the benefits of the great deep cleaning that occasionally needs to occur; rug cleaning along with pre & post event cleaning. I would describe the work performed by KT Clean as "Intelligent Cleaning." What do I mean by that? The KT Clean Staff carefully listened to what my wife told them she wanted cleaned & maintained and they never missed anything, ever. Above and beyond that they do what needs to be done, better than we would do it ourselves. The staff at KT Clean are honest, trustworthy & are experienced capable & innovative cleaners. Nobody does it better than these professionals. Having our home & offices cleaned by KT Clean is the greatest luxury that my wife & I do for each other each week. We love it & you will also. Kathryn Mills KT Clean is the best of the best. If you want a reference call me in Midland at 989-488-4605 or on my cell phone at 937-430-5491 anytime. Bud Burdzinski"

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you’ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.

There are several homemade solutions for clearing a clogged sink that don’t involve pouring harsh chemicals down your drain. Start by pouring hot (but not boiling) water down the drain. This can help dissolve and flush away grease and gunk. A splash of dish soap down the drain can also cut through fat and make it easier to clear the drain. For a more stubborn blockage, grab a plunger and give it a few firm pumps to dislodge the clog.

A saturated leach field can result from various underlying issues, so it's best to call a professional septic company to diagnose and treat the problem. Depending on the cause of the saturation, potential fixes include pumping out a full septic tank, adding more bacteria to the tank, or regrading the soil to fix low spots. It may also be necessary to reroute rainwater and runoff away from the leach field using gutters, downspouts, and extenders. Once the primary issue is resolved, planting specific types of vegetation over the area can help absorb excess water. In more severe cases, you might need to install a larger septic tank or replace the leach field entirely.

You can unclog a double kitchen sink by plunging the side with the garbage disposal. Cover the drain hole on the other side first to avoid creating a mess. Plunge up and down until the water starts to drain. You can also pour in baking soda and vinegar to try and dissolve a clog. 

A washing machine should drain the water used during its cycle through a drainpipe and out through the house’s plumbing. This is the same plumbing that sinks and shower drains run to, and if the U-bend is installed correctly, it shouldn’t smell. The total drainage from the house is then integrated into the city sewer system or, if you’re in the country, dispersed into a septic tank.
