"I called Ralph on Sunday as pipe broke under kitchen sink. I sent him video of the problem and we set appointment for Monday as he was able to squeeze me in on short notice. Ralph and his assistant, Peter came and Ralph gave me an estimate of the job. I said go ahead. Ralph and Peter did the following: Removed and replace drain waste line, dishwasher tail piece and new stainless steel basket strainer, new nuts and washer for connections. They ran water multiple times to test the system. Ralph was not happy with one of the connections, even though no water was leaking. He just did not feel right about it as if it was his own home and replaced the connection again. It's nice to see someone who takes so much pride in his work and will not finish the job until he is satisfied that it was done right. Will definitely hire again."

"Fast, Clean, Efficient, Feasible! This is an easy review to write when you have a professional on the job. Titan Plumbing Sewer & Drain was on site ready to swap out our old tank and install the new one. Also, was aware of new housing codes and installed an Expansion Tank. He could of easily changed the thermocouple just to get by but did not recommend doing so on a 10+ unit. Do it right once and call Titan Plumbing Sewer & Drain. We were so happy with their service! Easy to recommend them"

"The previous owner of our property used his French drain installation as a selling point, but shortly after we moved in we found water in the basement after a storm. It turned out that the "French drains" were a trench at the edges of the basement and a sump pump. The drains were not piped to the sump pump. We had Arid install real French drains with pipe to the sump pump well. Thus was in 2005 and we have not had any water in the basement since. Pat explained the job well and his team performed it quickly. They cleaned up well afterwards. The pump finally gave out last night (after almost 12 years). Arid is going to install new one on Friday."

"Vannes Service and Drains LLC completed my bathroom project and, I could not be happier! Four words I would use to sum up Shahe: responsive, courteous, professional and friendly He called right away to discuss my project, provided a reasonable quoted and scheduled time for the very next day. He followed up to confirm his arrival and showed up ON TIME. In between answering all of my curious plumbing questions, he stayed on task and completed the work expertly, all with a friendly smile. I would highly recommend Vannes Service and Drain and plan to use them for future projects."

"BAS Construction, lead by Sina and Ali, were collaborative from the start and my wife and I really found working with them easy compared to other contractors.  They spent quite a bit of time discussing our needs, providing ideas and finalizing the plans.
First, and foremost, they have excellent communication - phone, email and text - even Skype when we were away and needed to see the Ditra Heat work.  They responded quickly to my requests and confirmed everything in writing - making the final punch list a painless process for a change.
Second, they worked with us on the estimate and the planning, dealing well with our budget, schedule and design expectations. 
- The French drain was a concern, we wanted to confirm it could be filled in before committing to that plan.  They brought in a masonry sub who inspected the job and said it was doable.  The final result looked really good too.
- They had never worked with Ditra Heat before but had no issue with it - other contractors would only work with their brand.  They did their homework before hand and the installation works great. 
- The closet and room doors were huge - 93" high and 34" wide.  Big and heavy!  We worked with the supplier to spec the track system and all the doors work well.
Third, they really do back up their work.  No job goes completely perfectly and BAS dealt with the issues responsibly. The schedule had to be adjusted because I made an error ordering the Ditra Heat product, delaying things a couple weeks.  Also, we had some issues with their painter and both Sina and Ali came in and finished the job themselves.
Sina and Ali both worked on the final punch list and regularly solicited feedback and confirmation that the results were what we were expecting. The job finally wrapped up and we were thrilled with the end results!  The heated floor is amazing and the custom sliding doors to close off the room look and work great. 
We will be doing more work with BAS in the future and have already recommended them to a few friends."

"Love these guys! I called around 9 this morning and spoke with Elpidio. After texting a photo of our kitchen drain problem to him he was able to send me a quote, a contract and put me on the schedule for 3pm same day! As soon as I paid the deposit online we were set. Two of his colleagues actually came early (they called first) and finished within an hour. Clean and efficient and great price. We found our new go-to plumbers!"

French Drains questions, answered by experts

If you have a sink stopper, it can feel more challenging to clean the drain without removing it, but here are a few simple steps:

  • Pour ½ cup baking soda into the drain using a funnel

  • Pour 1 ½ cups vinegar into the drain

  • Close the sink stopper for 15–20 minutes

  • Open the drain

  • Pour 2 cups of boiling water down the drain (be cautious as boiling water can damage some types of pipes)

If the drain isn’t unclogged, repeat the process.

No, it is not advisable to spray pesticides down the drain in your home. Most drinking water and wastewater treatment systems are not properly equipped to remove pesticides. Should pesticides infiltrate waterways, they can cause harm to plants, fish, or other living things. In most areas, pouring pesticides down the drain is illegal due to the potential harm it causes. 

You can try several easy methods to unclog a drain, one of the easiest and most effective of which is to use a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. This will help dislodge and dissolve the clog to move it down the drain pipes. Pour 1/2 cup baking soda into the drain, followed by 1/2 cup of white vinegar. Dump several cups of boiling water (or hot water if you have PVC pipes) into the drain and let sit for up to one hour. Run hot water to clear the drain.

The cost varies from $150 to $600, depending on the severity of the clog, pipe access, and required equipment.

When you put baking soda and vinegar down the drain, they chemically react and help break down clogs. It’s not going to work for every type of clog, however. For example, it’s not the best way to get rid of grease buildup. For grease, you should try boiling water and white vinegar instead.
