"Noticed we were starting to have issues with our septic tank. Gave Thigpen a call and set up an appointment for the next day. They were here on time and completed the job quickly. No trying to talk me into any other services I didn't need, no bs, just straight up honest work. Will definitely hire again when the time comes."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.

Food grease, soap buildup, paper products, and tree roots often cause serious clogs.

Water backing up in your bathtub could be a clog in the bathtub drain, but it could also signal a problem somewhere else in your plumbing system. Blocked vent pipes caused by leaves, bird nests, or other debris,  along with blocked sewer lines that are damaged or have tree roots could cause backups in various fixtures. 

If you can’t unscrew your bathtub drain, it could be due to stripped post threads. The best way to handle this is to pull the stopper up while turning it. Eventually, you should see a screw set that you can loosen with a flathead screwdriver to remove the bathtub drain.

The most common types of backflow preventer devices depend on the purpose of the installation. For example, Portland.gov states that the double-check valve assembly and the pressure vacuum breaker assembly are most commonly used in irrigation systems, while the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) states that double-check valve assembly and the reduced pressure zone assembly backflow preventers are best for fire protection systems.

Ask a plumber for recommendations on the best backflow preventer device for your home.
