"I requested replacing a full drain pipe system. When they came, they only fixed the one part that was leaking, not the whole drain. They told me it would cost significantly more to replace the full drain, even though when they came out to bid it, I was very explicit on wanting it all replaced. The leak is fixed, but they also used a white pipe while the rest of the piping was black. They even told me they saw reviews the picture before coming, and still brought and use white piping. So now it is very mismatched."

"LJ was Very very helpful. Not like calling the larger companies where you get an operator who just makes an appointment or takes a message. My basement drain by the furnace was clogged & backing up. He gave me some basic tips to help troubleshoot & figure out what was likely going on. I probably fixed it myself after that but I still had him out to clean out the drain because we were going out of town the next day & I didn't want to take any chances. Good guy & I am grateful I connected with him."

"John was very helpful and professional. He returned my calls in a reasonable time and was very clear about what his company did, which is camera diagnostics. This is helpful to find the break or clog and not cause extra cost in labor to dig and find the problem. But not only did he do this, he was able to recommend people who could do the actual repair. Since this was my first need for help since I have moved to this area I did not have a plumber in my phone list. He recommended Alton Sewer in Independence, MO. And Josh is amazing...He came and help in what I felt was short time and was very reasonable with the cost."

"Anthony PCH did a excellent job of cleaning the main drain and examining the main line. Zach review and recommendations were what the prior repairmen and what I had researched. I would use Anthony PCH for any other work I might require."

"They were responsive. Texted me back immediately and when they missed my call they called me. They scheduled an appointment the next day and completed the repair in a timely fashion. The plumber that came out was respectful and clean cut and completed the job quickly with no problems. I love to support locally owned companies and since this company is only been in operation for about 2 years I would highly recommend them to any other customer in the area that might need plumbing work -- I live in Leawood Kansas."

"had water backing up through my washer drain late one night, and Jacob came over and snaked the drain for me. He was professional, respectful, and reasonably priced. He got the problem taken care of quickly, and I couldn?t be happier with the service. I would definitely recommend Jacob to anyone needing plumbing work!"

"I really had a problem with the drainage in my front yard from the sump pump and the drain that was buried to deep and the water wouldn't drain and just ran back into the sump pump causing it to run all the time. Nick and his crew installed a new drain and reconnected the sump pump drain into it and everything is fine now. His price was reasonable and fair. They did a great job replacing the sow in the front yard and it look great."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Professional plumbers use many high-grade chemicals to unclog drains. Many use hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid, when it comes to extreme blockages. 

The cost to unclog a drain varies based on the location and severity of the clog. For simple clogs within your home, such as in a sink, toilet, or shower, hiring a plumber typically costs between $110 and $350, with an average of around $200. Snaking a toilet or sink usually costs between $110 and $275, while a bathtub or shower clog costs about $225.

For a more serious clog in the main sewer line, the cost is higher. Clearing a main line clog generally costs between $200 and $600, with an average of about $380. However, prices can range from as low as $100 for snaking a minor clog to over $1,600, particularly if advanced methods like video inspection and hydrojetting are needed for a large or hard-to-reach blockage. Some severe main line clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear depending on factors like the cause of the clog, its distance from an accessible cleanout, and whether the pipe is located beneath an occupied space (e.g., in an apartment building). You may be able to save money on minor clogs by using a drain snake or bladder yourself.

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.

It is okay to use a drain auger on a toilet, just make sure you are using the correct tip size. The auger is a plumbing snake with a protective sleeve to protect the porcelain toilet bowl from getting scratched. Using too large of an auger can cause the snake to loop back and damage the inside of the drain and plumbing.

As a preventative measure, hydro jetting should be done every one to two years. However, the best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age and condition of your pipes, how prone they are to clogging, how often the sewer line is used, and the type of waste disposed of in the system. If you frequently experience clogs or are unsure, it's best to ask a licensed plumber for a recommendation specific to your plumbing system.
