"I had been told by a previous provider that my plumbing would have to be moved to solve the stoppage problem, but David, who was able to come within about 30 minutes of my call to the company, snaked the plumbing. This completely unclogged the sink. He also replaced a specialized washer and explained a few drain-related items. I was impressed by his ability to fix what I had been dealing with for months!"

"I have a household of 4 girls and our bath drains have been slow forever. The Zoom Drain technician explained the situation and tested each fixture to analyze where the clog was and, sure enough when he snaked the sink line, the bathtub drain improved too. He also snaked the tub for good measure which I felt was nice of him. Ran lots of water to show improvement. Solid service."

"The plumber arrived on time. Several days before he arrived, I had already removed the toilet and cleaned the remaining old wax from the bottom of the toilet. I had also removed the old, rusted and falling apart metal portion of the old closet flange, and all of the old wax rings. A portion of the old closet flange, which appeared to me to be plastic remained glued to the 3 inch I.D. black ABS drain pipe. The plumber glued a new closet flange inside and on top of the remaining portion of the existing old closet flange. He screwed the new closet flange down to the subfloor in three places. The subfloor was rotted away where the fourth screw should have gone. It appeared that two of the screws into the subfloor tightened down, but the third screw could not be tightened very much due to the condition of the subfloor. I had purchased a new wax ring and bolts at Lowes, as I had hopes of replacing the wax ring myself, but due to the rusted away closet flange, I decided I needed expert help and call the plumber. The plumber's wax rings were cold from being in the truck, so we used the wax ring I had purchased which was at room temperature. Also, the bolts that hold the toilet down, that the plumber had, did not have threads that went all the way to the head of the bold. Therefore, he used the bolts that came with the wax ring I purchased, since the threads went all the way to the head of the bolt. He installed the new wax ring and bolts and then set the toilet. He tightened the bolts, but the toilet would rock from side to side. He placed wedge shims under the toilet and between the wedge shims and tightening the bolts got the toilet secure and not rock. I wonder that since he left a part of the old closet flange on the drain pipe, and then installed the new flange on top, that maybe the closet flange was sitting too high, therefore requiring the wedge shims under the toilet. The toilet has not leaked since he installed the new flange and wax ring. I guess I'm a little disappointed that I didn't receive a bit of a reduction in the $409.00 charge since I had already removed the toilet and old wax ring, cleaned up the toilet and the remaining portion of the old flange and provided the new wax ring and bolts. I have concern that due to the poor condition of the subfloor, and that wedge shims were required, that the toilet may start rocking and/or leaking in the future."

"This is a good company to deal with. James, the owner, was out within one hour to diagnose our problem. The next morning the technicians, Brian and Josh were out to take care of our drain issues. Brian made a point of showing me the camera footage of the main drain. The did a great job on the main and two other drains. They also cleaned up very well when they were done. Brian also noticed an issue with our bathtub stopper and fixed it without an extra charge. The pricing was transparent. They have a nice email notice system and called when they were on the way. The three men I worked with were all very professional and easy to deal with. I would not hesitate to use them again. Phil Lykens"

"Atlas Foundation was wonderful. They were efficient, friendly, punctual, did quality work at a fair price. I tried to convince the owner, Mike, that I needed the more expensive french drain but he held to his ethics and said no the less expensive sump pump would solve my problem. He could have made more money off of me but he didn't. He held to his ethics and I am grateful because he was right."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

The P-trap (or S-trap in older homes) under your shower is designed to prevent sewer gas from coming back up, so you shouldn’t normally experience foul odors coming from your shower drain. If you do, the vent stack that introduces air into your plumbing system may be clogged, or you may have a more severe sewer main blockage. In either case, hire a plumber to fix the issue for you.

DIY plunging or drain cleaning chemicals may help minor clogs, but professional hydro jetting ensures long-term solutions.

Yes, sewage smells can originate from a floor drain. If the P-Trap in the floor drain dries out or if there's a clog or other issue in the plumbing system, sewer gasses can escape through the drain, causing nasty odors. Regularly pouring water into the drain helps maintain the water seal and prevent those smells, but if the smell persists, you should have a plumbing professional inspect the drain for potential problems.
