"He replaced outdoor plumbing for spout and did some took off some siding of the house. He did an excellent job and provided a very reasonable price. He give free estimate and he come back 2 days later and got finished the job . H e was all work and no talk and had no delay. He was spectacular .and He knew how to access 35 year old pipe that was in the siding. It was great. He place everything in perfect edition and I'd even recommended him on the app next door. I even left his name for others to contact for general contracting needs. I plan to call him again."

We are a locally owned and operated company. We value honesty and integrity in all aspects of our business. We offer a variety of home improvement services that are customized to each individual project. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work, as well as our commitment to outstanding results. We look forward to building lasting relationships with our clients and guarantee your satisfaction!

"Integrity, Service, Professionalism & “Technical Know How” - if you are looking for this in a HVAC company – FloBros should be your go to service provider. I’ve worked the Capital District’s Top Tier providers & they fall short where FloBros excels. When I looked to the “big guys” for a simple service request they immediately “blew up” a small request into a new installation. FloBlos was sharp in trouble shooting & to the point in options, I’ve used them multiple times now & will continue to do so in the future. Look no further than FloBros for your HVAC needs!!! "

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

No. You should dispose of all oil-based finishing products through a local hazardous waste program. Not only can oil-based finishes be hazardous for the environment if disposed of in the sink, but they can cause clogs in your pipes and stop up your drains. Most municipal garbage or waste disposal companies have a specific location or pick-up schedule for hazardous materials, so that’s your best bet to get rid of excess finishing products.

If you've discovered a rather frightening buildup of brown and black gunk below your shower cover, you're not alone. The smelly sludge is often a collection of mildew and biofilm. Biofilm comes from the breakdown of soap scum, hair, skin cells, and bacteria that collects during shower time. It's quite common in a humid space and relatively easy to clean with a gentle DIY cleaning solution such as baking soda and vinegar.

The spin cycle on your washer should initiate draining, but if you still find leftover water in the washing machine tub, you may need to drain it manually. To manually drain a washing machine, you’ll need to turn off the power supply and locate the drain hose, filter, and pump. Open or disconnect these parts and let the water drain into a bucket.

That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.

In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don’t technically need a license, as they aren’t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They’ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your plumber’s professional licenses before hiring.
