"EXCEPTIONAL! Thomas was able to come the same day. He diagnosed and fixed my problems within hours. Top notch. Personable, professional and quality work. Gives and explains his estimate up front and stays true to his word. Prices are very good. I will keep his contact info for myself and refer him to anyone who needs a licensed and experienced plumber."

"The plumber they sent had to dig up the front lawn to find where the water line entered the house. He then replaced the grass and you couldn’t tell where he dug. He was the reason I gave them a 5 star rating. He worked till dark to complete the job. Most companies would have used 2 guys to do this work. Ask for Jeremy he is an excellent plumber."

"Colby explained the problems and solutions simply and honestly. He offered me a plumbing suggestion for my clogged drains that didnâ t involve having to get another pipe system. My house still uses its 1933 original plumbing system. I am adding them to my business call list."

"Tim is a good communicator, keeping me updated as per his time of arrival. He arrived on time, respected our home by placing protective coverings over his boots without being asked. Performed tests to replicate and confirm the problems I stated and snaked the upstairs drain through the shower to clear the obstruction. His pricing is on the higher side curve for these services although we were very satisfied with the service provided. I would recommend and refer Tim Campbell to others."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

A liquid drain cleaner can sometimes make a clog worse over time if you use it improperly or too much. The chemicals in drain cleaners can corrode and damage pipes, causing cracks and leaks that may cause further blockages. If the clog is more than the liquid drain cleaner can handle, the cleaner will simply add chemicals to a bigger overall problem.

Liquid drain cleaners are harsh chemicals that can erode your pipes. To treat a slow drain or for preventative maintenance, pour hot water down the drain to break up gunk and help move it along. Make sure the water isn’t boiling hot (keep it under 140 degrees Fahrenheit) if you have plastic pipes. However, you’ll need to pull the clog out for bigger backups. 

To keep your toilet from clogging, you can use less toilet paper. You can also use a liquid toilet plunger to break up any clogs and keep the toilet drain and pipes clear. When it comes to a clogged toilet, the best route is prevention by using less toilet paper and making sure the mechanisms are all working properly.

As a general rule of thumb, it’s best to clean your linear drain every two to three months to prevent debris buildup. However, if you notice it draining slowly or an odor from your drainpipes, it’s best to clear the clogged drain and maintain it more often. If you let a clog go for too long, you may have to invest in the price of professional shower drain cleaning, which costs about $225.

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.
