"Came on one day notice on a Sunday with no extra charge and cleared out a clogged drain. It was not an easy job but it is a flat rate for the service and they did not up charge."

"Mr. Pipey Plumbing is awesome! I had a new renant move in Friday. He found the shower and sink drains clogged, so I called Mr. Pipey at 3:00, set up an appointment, they showed up same day from a job location down the road, assessed the issue, and rocked out my drain issues in the bathroom. They got there at 5, out by 6 - all clear. Professional, easy to work with, tenant is happy, cost was very reasonable and fair. I will use them again now at my rental house locations."

"I highly recommend Mike Elinski and his team at Perma Dry. Last winter we had a small leak coming from a hairline crack at about face-height on one of our basement walls. We called Mike and he promptly drove out to have a look. He quoted us a price which we accepted. He then had one of his employees come out to seal the crack. When the work was done Mike and his employee worried that the issue might be something other than the crack. So Mike refused to accept payment even though we insisted. We waited a few months and the problem never reappeared. So we asked him to send us a bill so we could pay him. He refused. Months went by and Metro Detroit got hit with heavy rains. We started noticing leaking near the floor in other areas of the basement. Then on July 24 there was a major downpour and we got about an inch or two of water in our basement. This had nothing to do with the crack that Perma Dry had repaired. We called Mike, and, after he thought it over, he suggested an interior French drain with sump pump. He quoted us a fair price and we accepted. He then sent a team out who performed the work. They were hard workers. Very professional and polite. Got the job done in two days. And they cleaned up after themselves. The city inspectors came out and said they'd done very good work. If you have water issues in your basement, save yourself some time, trouble, money, and hassle and call Perma Dry. Mike and his team will treat you well."

"I would recommend Exquisite Touch to anyone in need of plumbing services. I had some work done this past Saturday, which included a full stack replacement along with a flange and cleanout. The technicians, Ken and Dylan, arrived well-prepared from the start. There was another worker who joined the team, but I didn’t catch his name. These men were professionals, and their work was of the highest quality. They even laid down protective coverings on the carpet before they began working. They informed me about the entire project step by step and ensured that the area was cleaned up before leaving. I will definitely be using this company again in the near future. Even the receptionist who took my call was professional and knowledgeable about the services offered. Thank you to the team at Exquisite Touch: Ken, Dylan, Sara, and the other worker whose name I missed. Dawn Detroit"

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

Start by pouring hot—but not boiling—water down the drain. The heat of the water may be enough to break down the clog. You can also try ½ cup of dish soap or 1 cup each of white vinegar and baking soda. If you choose a chemical unclogging product, ensure it’s appropriate for toilets to avoid damage.

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.

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’s still standing water, repeat the steps until the standing water clears out. 

When you put baking soda and vinegar down the drain, they chemically react and help break down clogs. It’s not going to work for every type of clog, however. For example, it’s not the best way to get rid of grease buildup. For grease, you should try boiling water and white vinegar instead.

Snaking a drain can take as little as a few minutes for small, simple clogs, up to two hours or more for tough clogs located further down the drain line. For tougher clogs, a professional drain cleaner can likely get the job done much more quickly because they have the necessary tools and expertise. However, your drain cleaning pro might not be able to give you a firm time estimate until inspecting the clog and its surrounding plumbing.
