"Services: Unclog drain, Repair toilet, Repair pipe. // Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness // Haines was recommended to me saying they were good at their job. I called them Monday, Feb 15th about a clogged drain, they came out Tues Feb 16th at the time I was told they would be there, which was great! They were there from 3:30 pm to 6:50 pm. Some repairs had to be made to the laundry tub drain and my toilet had to be lifted so they could access that portion of the drain. After the toilet was replaced, the shut-off valve leaked, so I asked them to replace that also. The work that was done created quite a mess... BUT, when they were finished you would never know that. Everything was cleaned up so well and disinfected, it looked nice and smelled nice. The workmen were very professional and knowledgeable about their job. I will add this company to my contacts as a reliable source for repairs."

"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"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

You can try several easy methods to unclog a drain, one of the easiest and most effective of which is to use a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. This will help dislodge and dissolve the clog to move it down the drain pipes. Pour 1/2 cup baking soda into the drain, followed by 1/2 cup of white vinegar. Dump several cups of boiling water (or hot water if you have PVC pipes) into the drain and let sit for up to one hour. Run hot water to clear the drain.

You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

Plumbers use a variety of tools to help unclog the toughest of drain clogs, but the most common tools they use are drain snakes and augers. They try a plunger or drain snake to start, then move to heavy-duty augers, and finally try using a hydro jetter to blast away the clog with high-pressure water. Hiring a plumber to unclog a drain costs $125 to $300, largely depending on the extent and location of the clog and which of these methods is best for clearing it.

Yes, short hair can clog a drain. While you might be tempted to blame the long-haired people living with you for a clogged drain, hair—no matter the length—can combine with soap scum and leftover shampoo to create a perfect storm of sticky mess that can cause your drain to slow down.
