"Kemoy is amazing! He has a wealth of knowledge in all areas of plumbing. He was very fair on price and did an excellent job. He installed a new water heater for me. While he was there at no extra charge he checked all the plumbing in the house to see if there were any other issues. He found one! The kitchen sink had been leaking at the p-trap. He fixed that at no cost. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a fantastic professional plumber!"

"Greene Planet gave us a free inspection of mold in crawl space & within two weeks work to remove the mold, began. It took 4 days of which the crew was here on time everyday and worked diligently for 8 hours each day. Greene Planet did exactly what they said they would do in their written bid. Very polite workers. The cost of the mold remediation, vapor proofing with an added dehumidifier, was very reasonably priced. Thank you, Greene Planet! You saved us!!!!!!!!!!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

PVC pipes are more affordable and applicable in most parts of your home’s plumbing system than copper pipes. They also require less maintenance. The only major restriction with PVC pipes is their low heat tolerance. Therefore, they’re not your best option for supplying hot water from the water heater throughout your home. PVC pipes are also larger in diameter, so they may not fit into certain spaces in your home.

Liquid drain cleaners are harsh chemicals that can erode your pipes. To treat a slow drain or for preventative maintenance, pour hot water down the drain to break up gunk and help move it along. Make sure the water isn’t boiling hot (keep it under 140 degrees Fahrenheit) if you have plastic pipes. However, you’ll need to pull the clog out for bigger backups. 

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.

Never ignore burst pipes, as they dump heavy loads of water in their wake. This excess moisture can lead to ruined appliances, an abundance of mold, and issues with your home’s electrical system (and so much more). If you suspect a burst pipe is wreaking havoc somewhere within your system, do not hesitate to contact a professional plumber. Pipe replacement costs much less than mitigating serious water damage or structural issues.

There are a few ways to unclog a toilet without a plunger. Break up the clog with homemade solutions containing soap, vinegar, and baking soda, or simply let hot water spend some time in the drain. You can also use a two-liter soda bottle filled with water to push pressurized water into the pipe to dislodge the debris (see the steps above).
