"Mike and Aiden came to clear sewer line from clean out at house to the front of our yard. They ran the camera through and found tree roots in pipe. They ran the pipe several times pulling roots out of pipe. Both Mike and Aiden were very professional and knowledgeable about their work. Will use Riley Plumbing the next time I need work done."
"Hawthorne came out and looked at my 15 year old AC and gave me several options while explaining everything very clearly. He did not pressure me in any way to buy a new unit, but he told me all of the possible thing that may happen. I had two other companies come out and each pressured me to spend money on cleanings and services that the Hawthorne technician said would be a waste. The other two companies also quoted me at 700 more than Hawthorne. So I committed to Hawthorne and the Technician told me they were having a sale on the ac units so I even saved 400 more. They could have kept their original quote and pocketed the 400, but instead they passed the savings along to me. Excellent, trustworthy, and quick."
"Although we paid more than we expected for a gas water heater, what we did get was a commercial grade water heater of higher quality, and thorough professional work done. We are also happy with the 9 year warranty that includes a free annual tank drain."
General handyman things, light electrical, landscaping, painting, plumbing and pretty much anything else. I also know my limits, so if there is something I am not 100% certain I can do up to standards then I will be honest. Cost is always negotiable with me.
"Last minute day after call appointment on a Friday. Family coming in. Installed pipe from the wall, pee trap, pop up drain stopper and faucet in about an hour. Explained the whole process. Very courteous."
"The Vortex system is unmatched in its ability to clean filthy water.

Start by unscrewing the overflow valve, which is located on the wall of your tub between the floor drain and the tub spout. Gently insert a plumbing snake down into the pipe, move it back and forth, and pull it out. Remove any hair, debris, and soap scum that comes out with it. Repeat the process until the snake comes out clean, and then reinstall the cap on your overflow valve.
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.
Bleach is generally not recommended for your shower drains. Although diluted bleach can technically help clean your drain, it will not unclog your pipes. In fact, bleach can harm your plumbing system because it’s so powerful. The bleach can change the color of your sink and even corrode metal pipes and fittings.
Often, people reach for bleach because it's already in their house. But it's worth getting a plunger or a drain snake for the job instead. It'll be a lot less money to buy a new plunger than to pay a plumber to repair or replace damaged pipes.
The first rule of plumbing is nothing but water, toilet paper, number one, and number two go down the drain.
To prevent clogs, get yourself:
A compast pail where you can clean plates, drain grease, and toss scraps and paper towels.
Drain screens for the shower, tub, and bathroom sink to stop hair, jewelry, toys, etc. from going down the drain.
Trash cans for everything that shouldn’t go down the drain, like dental floss, hygiene products, and cat litter.
Although linear drains allow water to flow quickly and efficiently, they tend to clog more easily than traditional drains. Linear drains are flush with the shower floor, allowing soap scum and hair to potentially build up. They’re also longer than other drains, allowing for more space to let debris fall into the drainpipe.
