Q: Is Black Friday the busiest day for plumbers?

• <div><p>Black Friday, also known as the day after Thanksgiving, is one of the busiest days of the year for plumbers. Plumbing pros receive many service requests for clogged drains, garbage disposal issues, and clogged sewer lines. Don&rsquo;t hesitate to call a plumber on Black Friday if you experience emergency plumbing problems.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to stay in a house with sewer gas?

• <div><p>It is generally safe to stay in a house with sewer gas for a short time, even though short-term exposure is unpleasant. However, prolonged inhalation can cause headaches, nausea, or respiratory irritation. High levels of methane&mdash;which is in sewer gas&mdash;can pose an explosion risk in enclosed spaces. Ventilate the area and call a pro if you smell sewer gas or experience related health symptoms.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to snake a drain?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-snake-a-drain.htm">Snaking a drain</a> can take as little as a <b>few minutes</b> for small, simple clogs, <b>up to two hours</b> 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.</p></div>

Q: How often should you snake your sewer line?

• <div><p>Unlike regular cleanings, snaking your sewer line should be done as needed. There&rsquo;s no reason to snake your sewer line if you don&rsquo;t have any noticeable issues, like slow drainage or plugged drains. You can add it to your regular sewer cleaning checklist as a prevention method (on the same <b>18- to 22-month</b> schedule), but it&rsquo;s not always necessary. </p></div>

Q: Can snakes come up through shower drains?

• <div><p>Snakes can occasionally enter homes through shower drains, although it&rsquo;s quite rare. This can happen when they follow sewer pipes or accidentally find their way into plumbing systems. To minimize the risk, consider installing drain covers or stoppers on your shower drains. Always keep drains closed when they&rsquo;re not in use, especially in areas where snakes are known to be active.</p></div>

I didn't like their service. It was a more expensive than other companies that I had used in the past, and they made a hell of a mess in my basement. We didn't have very good interactions with them because I wasn't home. The drain cleared up, but I had to call someone up after a month, because...
