I had two items that needed to be fixed and I received a competitive quote. 3rd Rock Plumbing was not the most expensive, or the cheapest, but I liked the way that they treated me. They did not try to oversell me. I accepted their quote and had the work completed. They did a great job, even took off their shoes when they came inside of my house.

Cost is determined by the job. We accept cashier's check or cash.

"Initially the work performed by Al Savelle was satisfactory. However, when we contacted Al to return and correct an issue with the toilet leaking from the base he refused to stand behind his work and correct the problem created by his work not being done correctly. Below are the details of the situation: Al Savelle was hired to re-seat 2 toilets in our home on 21-April-2018, after our floors were installed. On 22-May-2018, one of the toilets started leaking at the base. When I called to get him to come out and fix the issue he stated he would be at my house between 0830-0900 on 23-May-2018. The morning of 23-May, I received a text from Al stating "Good morning Scott, I can't warrantee that old toilet and my schedule is busy right now. Your best bet is probably to get another local plumber". I responded with several texts after that as follows: From Scott K: Al - you did the work to install the toilets and one is leaking. Therefore it is your responsibility to come and fix the issue since the work done was not done correctly From Scott K: The age of the toilet is irrelevant. The toilet did not leak before the floors were installed. The whole purpose in hiring you as the plumber was to ensure the reinstall of the toilet was done properly. From Scott K: When will you be here to correct the problem? Scott K: So am I understanding that you are not going to honor your promise of "Our work is good. We promise. And behind that promise, we want you to know that we back our work with a satisfaction guarantee. We won't stop working until you like what we've done"? I received no response to any of the above text messages After several attempts to call Al to discuss the matter (each time the call went straight to voice mail with instructions to text the issue to him as he does not check his voice mails), we are now forced to contact another plumbing company and pay for All Savelle's incompetent work in order to prevent additional damage to our brand new flooring."

We are a detail-focussed small service & repair business catering to the needs of our customers 24/7. Service Calls and small repairs are done at standard Labor & Materials invoicing. Larger projects such as rewiring, remodels, deck construction, are done with a fixed-price contract and all elements calculated via a site visit with owner for a total price thereafter. Local area estimates are free, but a nominal charge is required for out-of-area estimate requests to offset fuel & maintenance costs for business vehicle plus nonproductive time lost ( I credit customer this if we are hired to do a job). I DO NOT subcontract as a rule but do have a couple highly skilled tradespeople who work independently and cover additional needs for my business as I need them, such as A/C system charging, etc. We have 100% satisfaction with our customer base and I guarantee all work 100% for 1 year after it is done (labor & materials)! Examples of our clientele are the average residential homeowner to medical offices to single professionals to retirement communities to legal system professionals to major retailer stores in Malls. We have a diverse portfolio of clients and all are treated the same way building trust by our work ethic, integrity and professional character we put forth on any job. We work VERY clean respecting all properties. Please check my LinkedIn business profile as well: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-lackovic-45761b91/

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

The spin cycle on your washer should initiate draining, but if you still find leftover water in the washing machine tub, you may need to drain it manually. To manually drain a washing machine, you’ll need to turn off the power supply and locate the drain hose, filter, and pump. Open or disconnect these parts and let the water drain into a bucket.

The drain pump will naturally make a standard operational and draining sound several times throughout your dishwasher cycle. If you hear abnormally loud sounds like scraping, grinding, or clicking, you may have food debris or a piece of glass stuck in your drain filter. Avoid dishwasher repair by always scraping food off your dishes and loading the racks correctly.

It is not advisable to use drain cleaner in a washing machine. Drain cleaners contain harsh chemicals that can damage the internal components of your washer, including rubber seals, hoses, and even the drum. These chemicals can also react with any residual detergent or fabric softener, potentially leading to noxious fumes. If your washing machine is experiencing drainage issues, it's best to address the problem directly by inspecting and cleaning the lint filter, checking for clogs in the drain hose, or seeking professional repair services. Using drain cleaner in a washing machine is a risky solution that can cause more harm than good.

Once you’ve poured the baking soda and vinegar into a drain, you should wait about 10 minutes for the mixture to break down the clog. If you try the baking soda and vinegar method and it doesn't work, you can do it again or try the baking soda and salt trick.

You should hire a sewer service professional to unclog a main sewer line with tree roots. Tree roots can grow into the main sewer line, and this problem requires a specialized hydro jet, or rooter, that is powerful enough to clear the roots. The tree can also damage the main sewer line, and a professional will need to make repairs or replace the damaged sections. Sewer line replacement costs about $60 to $250 per linear foot.
