"It went very well. I called the emergency number about 10:30 p.m., and Rob came out, turned off the water heater (I couldn't move the lever due to hard water encrustation) and rigged a hose to drain the heater into the shower. The next morning Wayne showed up b/4 9 a.m., assessed the situation, explained the possibilities, and when I chose to replace both the heater and the softener (also probably at the end of useful life) as well as add a carbon filter, he called in for equipment, supplies, and help. The whole thing, with two working at it, took about 5 hours, but when they finished I had clean, soft, hot (when wanted) water on tap. Wayne also gave me a quick review of how things worked (the instruction manuals have been hung on the wall to be handy). He and his colleague (I didn't retain the name, sorry) made a very good job of getting all of this into a small laundry/mechanical room; it's not much more cramped than it was. They cleaned up the area when they finished (and I think left it cleaner than they found it, which considering my housekeeping style is above and beyond the call of duty), and took the old equipment away. (They also collected Rob's hose.) For the new softener, they recovered salt from the old unit for me as well as supplying new salt. I signed up for their 10-year plan with annual inspection, so I was given the details on that, as well as, among other information, a refrigerator magnet (how to reach them), a jar opener (which also tells how to reach them), and a postage-paid review form for Angie's List (unnecessary as I can do so here). BTW, Angie's List had supplied a coupon."

"I had a wet basement that had been a problem in my home for years before purchase of my home. The placement of a Sump pump and floor drain tile appears to stop wet foundation walls and floor. The basement now has potential to be nice area of use and living for years ahead. The service is a expensive purchase for homeowner but it is a needed purchase for my home. The finishing job leaves the need with more work if your basement floor was rough from the years of water damage. They did stop any future water damage for my home and it is safe to spend more for more fine finishing. They completed what was contracted."

"David Kottke checked out our previously installed system as we had water on the basement floor. He quickly discovered problem was failure in condensation pump from an AC air handling unit and not the drain system. Serviced sump and tested casement drains as well. Pleasant and efficient. Got us focused on the real problem. Thanks"

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, frozen pipes can cause a toilet to stop working correctly. If the pipes are frozen, water cannot flow, which can lead to two main problems. First, the supply line to the toilet tank may be frozen, which prevents the tank from refilling with water after you flush. Second, the drain pipe itself can freeze, blocking water from flushing away. As a temporary solution for a non-refilling tank, you can manually add water, but this is not a long-term fix. To clear a frozen drain pipe, you can try pouring warm water into the toilet bowl or tank and then flushing, as the warm water may help thaw the ice blockage. Ultimately, the best course of action is to unfreeze the affected pipes to restore your toilet to full functionality.

A good option for opening up and cleaning a sink drain is to use a ¼ cup of baking soda and 1 cup of white vinegar, along with a rubber stopper to cover the drain while those materials work their magic. After about 15 minutes, you can flush the drain with hot water. In many cases, these materials can scrub out minor clogs and get the drain working properly again. If the issue persists, call in a plumber near you to get the problem permanently fixed.

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.

You can often unclog a garbage disposal in less than 10 minutes, though sometimes you might need longer if you’re unsure what’s causing the clog. For minor clogs, consider plunging the drain, flushing the drain with baking soda and vinegar, or using an Allen wrench to free the clog. If the clog is more severe, contact a local plumber.

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.
