Q: How do you unclog a bathtub drain?

• <div><p>The best way to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-unclog-bathtub.htm">unclog a bathtub drain</a> is to pour a pot of boiled water down the drain, being careful not to splash yourself. However, take precautions, as boiling water can damage PVC pipes and joints. Follow up with &frac12; cup of baking soda and &frac12; cup of vinegar. Cover the drain with a small sink plunger and let it sit for 15 minutes. Pour boiling water down the drain again and replace the drain stopper. </p></div>

Q: Can I pour refinishing oil down the drain?

• <div><p>No. You should dispose of all oil-based finishing products through a local hazardous waste program. Not only can oil-based finishes be hazardous for the environment if disposed of in the sink, but they can cause clogs in your pipes and stop up your drains. Most municipal garbage or waste disposal companies have a specific location or pick-up schedule for hazardous materials, so that&rsquo;s your best bet to get rid of excess finishing products.</p></div>

Q: Can you dissolve hair in a drain?

• <div><p>It might be possible to dissolve hair caught in a drain, but it&rsquo;s usually not a good way to go about clearing the clog. Some sources mention that baking soda and vinegar can do the trick, but this won&rsquo;t actually dissolve the hair. The hydrochloric acid in drain cleaners can dissolve the hair over time, but it will much more quickly destroy your plumbing pipes and leave you with bigger issues. The best way to remove hair is to do it manually with a drain snake or to have a plumber use an auger to pull clogs out.</p></div>

Q: Do water bugs come up drains?

• <div><p>Yes, drains are one common entry point for water bugs. However, water bugs may enter your home through various locations including doors, windows, pipes, and vents. Water bugs are drawn to the dark and moist atmosphere drains provide, and can easily find their way into your home through sewer drain pipes. You can stop water bugs from entering through drains by regularly cleaning your drains and repairing faulty drainage systems. </p></div>

"I had recently moved into a house with my family and had a few relatively easy fixes however, couldn't find the time to take care of them so I hired Countryside to come out and fix them. He did a very good job of explaining the reasons for the repairs, potential issues that might come up down the road with some of the older parts that weren't replaced, and explained how he would fix them as well as these current issues so that I could do them at a later date."
