I am from out of town, but I was visiting my parents and staying at their house. While doing the evening dishes, the kitchen drain line clogged. Repeated attempts to unplug the clog were unsuccessful and, in the process, we discovered that we not only needed to have the line snaked, but the plumbing under the sink was so old and deteriorated that it required replacement. I chose Superior Plumbing Service based solely on their proximity and their rating on Angie's List, but we got so much more than we expected. I contacted them the morning after the clog, first thing, and they were able to work the job into their schedule for that afternoon. They arrived on time, performed the work flawlessly and professionally, cleaned everything up after the job was complete, and charged a very reasonable amount for their expertise and high quality results. With service, competence, and commitment of such high caliber, this company is a true keeper. I would recommend them, without reservation, to anyone in the area they serve. You really cannot go wrong.

Plumbing Handymen questions, answered by experts
The only downsides to hiring a master plumber is that they charge a higher hourly rate than a less experienced plumber. Plus, master plumbers likely have less availability, given the demand for highly experienced professionals. The benefits far outweigh the cons, though.
Upsides include the following:
More professional repair
More experience fixing your specific issue
Recourse if something goes wrong
Warranty for the work (in some cases)
Some insulation from lawsuits if the plumber gets injured on your property
The most likely reason is rust. You can try using lubricant to loosen the metal components, but you’ll most likely need to call in a plumber to professionally sand down the rust without damaging the rest of your bathtub. If the rust is extensive, it might be a sign that you need to replace the plumbing.
The size of the pipe you use for your shower depends on the part of the shower you’re installing. Shower drainpipes have a 2-inch diameter, and the water supply lines (both hot and cold) have a ½-inch diameter. You may want to slightly increase the size of the vertical pipe if you have dual showerheads. Check the local building code prior to installation for guidance.
Plumbers use a variety of tools to help unclog the toughest of drain clogs, but the most common tools they use are drain snakes and augers. They try a plunger or drain snake to start, then move to heavy-duty augers, and finally try using a hydro jetter to blast away the clog with high-pressure water. Hiring a plumber to unclog a drain costs$125 to $300, largely depending on the extent and location of the clog and which of these methods is best for clearing it.
It’s possible to snake minor drain clogs yourself, provided they sit within a foot or two of the drain itself, but it’s usually best to hire a professional plumber regardless. Even experienced DIYers have a high chance of accidentally pushing the clog further into the drain using a drain snake or another tool, so hiring a plumber is the ideal course of action. A professional plumber can use camera equipment to locate and identify the clog, and remove the entire blockage to fix your issue permanently.
