"Casey replaced a 40 gallon hot water heater in a Michigan basement of a 121 year old house. Access to the basement was in a bathroom floor with steep steps and maybe 5â 6â of head clearance space in the basement. He removed the old tank and installed the new one by himself in record time. He does amazing work!"

"All-ways-dry was great about getting out quickly to help assess the leak in our basement. Even though it was determined that our problem was an outdoor siding problem (rather than a cement/foundation issue), they were great about walking me through the possibilities. Their in depth knowledge was evident, and I appreciated the time taken to go through it all. Before leaving they even took the time to make a call to another company for me who could address our problem. I was extremely impressed with their promptness, professionalism, and willingness to go above and beyond. Even though we couldn't use them for our current situation, we would definitely use them in the future.

"We had installed a water back up with alarm on our sump pump along with a new discharge through exterior wall into overflow. Excellent work done by Connor. He was very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He answered our questions in detail & we highly recommend Shelby Mechanical for any plumbing jobs. Our phone calls were handled by Erin who set our appointments and answered our questions with quite impressive plumbing knowledge. We will definitely use them again."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

Costs depend on clog severity, pipe condition, equipment required, and labor.

You’ll need to stop or pause the machine using its control panel to start the draining process mid-cycle. Remove the items inside, turn off the power to the machine, and then follow the steps above to drain the machine manually.

As a general rule of thumb, it’s best to clean your linear drain every two to three months to prevent debris buildup. However, if you notice it draining slowly or an odor from your drainpipes, it’s best to clear the clogged drain and maintain it more often. If you let a clog go for too long, you may have to invest in the price of professional shower drain cleaning, which costs about $225.

To clean gunk out of a sink drain, pour in a half cup of baking soda, then 1 cup of white vinegar. The two will react chemically; let them fizz for 15 minutes, then rinse with boiling water. Repeat these steps if necessary for particularly dirty sink drains, and consider a drain snake if there are clogs.

No, you should avoid using liquid drain cleaners. These chemicals, often packed with sulfuric or hydrochloric acid, can wreak havoc on your pipes, causing erosion and potential leaks. They’re also dangerous to your health. If you’re dealing with a stubborn clog, manual removal or a professional plumber is your best bet. Chemical drain cleaners can often make things worse, especially if the clog stays put and the chemicals linger in your pipes.
