I hired them to clean a large rug that my diogs and cats had been using. Needless to say there was hair and urine stains. I was going to throw it away. So my last hope was to try and get it cleaned. They were quick and kind. The rug looks great! I would differently use them again!

They showed up on time. The cost came in exactly as quoted. The roof repair looks wonderful. They fixed a tile on the other side that was not even part of the job. We are really happy with their work. The young helpers left tools and trash all over, but the boss came back and cleaned up behind...

For this particular service call, the washer in one of my apartments was not draining after the wash & rinse cycles. It was confirmed that the pump needed replacement, with the cost of parts & labor being almost as much as a new washer, so the decision was made to replace the 6 year old...

They were really good. They were very quick and they did a very good job. They were very punctual and cleaned up all the mess by themselves. I would rate them high overall. I would use them again in the future.

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.

Yes, many services include camera inspections to identify the cause of the blockage. Confirm with your provider.

Several signs can tip you off to a clogged dishwasher drain. At first, you may notice that it’s taking longer than usual for the dishwasher to drain, or you may hear gurgling sounds during the draining part of the cycle. You might also notice water backing up into your sink or excess food at the bottom of the dishwasher after a load. The most obvious sign, though, is seeing standing water at the bottom of your dishwasher after the cycle has finished.

You can unclog an AC drain line for free if you already have these household ingredients: water, vinegar, and rags. Alternatively, if you’d rather not deal with the mess, you can hire a pro to clear your drain line. If you go that route, an HVAC service call costs between $100 and $250.

Costs depend on clog severity, pipe condition, equipment required, and labor.
