"We had a broken clay main drain pipe under our concrete driveway. The team was able to find it, dig it up, replace it, and patch the concrete. Our drains are flowing fast and clean now. It was no small job, but the team persisted until it was resolved. We will use this company again if other drain issues occur."

"Had new 50 gallon water heater installed. There was a problem with the floor drain in the basement where the old water heater had been leaking. The guys unclogged the drain and completed the new installation all within the 90 minutes they said it would take to begin with. Because the old water heater was a 40 gallon unit they had to make some adjustments for the differences in height nd used new parts and fittings. There was no extra charge for the parts or the clearing of the drain. They even provided some guidance on another potential plumbing problem. If it needs work I will definitely call KC Metro Plumbing!"

"I needed to determine where the sump pump french drain ended and if it was clogged up. Two other people had attempted and advised me that I should dig and re-route the drain. They also stated the drain was crushed under ground. This did not satisfy me. I located Hydro Physics on the internet, filled out the requested information and received a call from John. John was great! He was very informative and answered all of my questions. He determined where the end location of the drain was. (Covered up with sod) Also, mud was clogging the drain. He removed the mud and referred me to a company, if I want to change the routing of the drain"

"Very smoothly. He confirmed my suspicions that the garbage disposal had quit working and was now clogging the drain. He was up-front about the costs and, although it seemed a little high, his work was efficient and he left the area clean and neat. He was even professional about social distancing in this age of pandemics."

"Our technician was present for a two-hour period, during which all our issues were resolved. At 9 AM, Karl arrived ready to examine our drain issue and go over possible solutions. We agreed upon the best option, and he got to work. There was a minor complication; however, he was quick on the draw and adjusted the plan accordingly. After he fixed our drain blockage, Karl helped us make a plan to be more proactive in the future and to hopefully prevent this from happening again. Additionally, we have some other plumbing work that we need done. He examined what we needed and gave us a fair quote. The work provided by this company was high quality and professional, and we will be using them again in the future."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

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.

You can pour hot water down your gutter drain to melt ice and keep ice dams from forming. If the problems persist, consider investing in heat cables to run in your gutters. Heat cables can adjust based on the surrounding temperature to keep ice thawed.

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

You may have a clogged gutter. Downspouts can also clog if your gutter collects too much debris. Hire a professional gutter cleaner, and if you still have problems, install a gutter guard (which prevents debris from entering your gutter system) and a downspout extension (which helps drain water further away from your foundation, so it doesn't pool near your house). Follow these tips to keep your gutter downspouts clean.

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.
