"Mike is not only a professional and a pro at his expertise, he is also compassionate. Bathtub was not draining, we got all kinds of quotes and plans that can be done including breaking the wall but not closing the wall. I got in touch with Mike through a work referral. Mike not only picked up the phone, he listened to my issue and made himself to come out the same day. He was not only early but, was able to assess and solve the issue at a super reasonable cost. Mike is now my lifetime go to for drain issues. Thanks Mike!"

"My plumber was Anthony and couldn't have been nicer; thorough, thoughtful, patient and diligent. The work was completed showing that my kitchen sink drain pipe was plugged with an extensive amount of slug. Anthony recommended keeping the lines clear using bleach overnight, followed by hot, hot running water. I was very pleased and would recommend Anthony any time."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

If the drain is frozen, the pipes connecting to the washing machine are likely frozen. If the hot water trick doesn’t also unfreeze the washing machine pipes, you can gently apply heat with a hair dryer on the lowest setting. Start at the end of the pipe closest to the faucet to prevent pressure from building in the pipes, and make sure the faucet is open to drain the water as it melts.

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.

It can take anywhere from half an hour to a few hours to fix a main line clog, depending on the cause and severity of it. The job should not take more than a day to complete. Keep in mind that the main line is not the same as your home’s sewer lines (which connect to the main line and run to your house). Your city is responsible for any clogs or damage to the main line itself.

Common causes include hair buildup, soap residue, food particles, and foreign objects. Older pipes can also contribute by facilitating buildup more easily.
