"I am grateful to have found Out the Door Plumbing and recommend them highly. Zack and Hutch operated in such a professional manner, stepping in after a botched assessment by another plumbing company that left the problem untreated for several days. Not only did they clearly know their business, they performed several tests and their diagnosis was spot on. There actually were two issues, the less obvious one being the cause of the water leakage. Thank goodness they figured it out. They were thorough in not only completing their job impeccably, but also putting me in touch with other top-notch professionals for the next phase of the project. You canâ t go wrong with them!"

"Two plumbers called 30 minutes before coming and showed up on time. The base job was to fix the water heater in the attic. They were quite efficient and the work was priced fairly. The second part of the job was to check on several inspection items that I had corrected. They did a thorough review, but quickly. At the last minute I asked for a quote to modify a drain line. The additional work, quoted at an attractive price was performed with quality, but again in short order. Thank you for the quick, affordable, and high quality service."

"My prior water heater, a 50-gallon tank, started leaking after 15 years. I called Streamline to confirm that it needed replacement, and to replace it. I was considering a tankless water heater already, and the first tech walked me through the pros and cons, then wrote up an estimate. Two additional techs came the next day to install the heater and the necessary gas and power lines. The only issue I had was that one of the newly installed gas fittings leaked gas into the basement. I shut off the supply valve and called Streamline, and they came out within half an hour to fix it at their expense. Mistakes happen, and I was impressed with how professionally they corrected that one."

"Edwin Lazo installed new faucets and drains throughout the house following the installation of new granite countertops. Along with connecting a garbage disposal and a new line for refrigerator water and ice. He answered all my many questions and took the time to problem solve a future project with me. He was prompt, careful about cleaning up, and overall, did an excellent job."

"On Friday 11/9, Chris reviewed my project and indicated that some of the materials I purchased were incompatible with the existing plumbing. I exchanged those over the weekend. On Monday 11/12, Chris arrived on time and worked efficiently. He was very respectful of my home and considerate of my concerns. He answered all my questions. I will call on Chris again for any future projects."

"Technically, they installed a drinking fountain but the option above was the closest thing to it. I was very impressed by their responsiveness and customer service. They were informative and helpful for what I needed. The gentlemen that came out to do the install did an amazing job. They were thorough, professional and helpful to say the least. I am thankful for the work these folks have done and if I need anything in the future, I am sure to call them again."

"Over-all the installation day went well - the crew was on time, prompt and very efficient. They installed the sump pump drain line without my knowledge and installed it over the property line. When my neighbor needed to install a fence, it took moths, multiple calls and finally threat of legal action to get them to come out and move the drain (which they promised to do at time of installation). The re-positioned drain work was so shoddy that I now have the drain sticking out of the ground and not properly draining; I will be calling them back again. It also took weeks and multiple calls to finally get the promised inspector documentation, which was then left in the crawl space without any notification."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Bleach is generally not recommended for your shower drains. Although diluted bleach can technically help clean your drain, it will not unclog your pipes. In fact, bleach can harm your plumbing system because it’s so powerful. The bleach can change the color of your sink and even corrode metal pipes and fittings.

Often, people reach for bleach because it's already in their house. But it's worth getting a plunger or a drain snake for the job instead. It'll be a lot less money to buy a new plunger than to pay a plumber to repair or replace damaged pipes.

Anything you drop down your sink runs the risk of damaging and clogging your pipes. Hair, bits of food, and other debris can catch on the item and build up over time, causing a clog. Even if it’s not valuable, it’s definitely worth trying to retrieve the item, or at the very least, asking a pro for specific advice.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

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.

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