"Highly recommend! Had several tree stumps removed from my yard and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Bill was professional, responsive, and worked fast. Everything was cleaned up really well afterward too. I’d definitely use him again for future work."

"My husband and I hired a KAMMS Construction company to replace some of the ducts in our basement. The inspector explained the procedure to us, and we were delighted with the work and the estimate. But what we liked most about this company was that they discovered some damaged and badly deteriorated ducts, which weren't on the schedule. They recommended that the most efficient solution was to replace them, and everything went perfectly. It was truly those little details that left us very satisfied. I highly recommend this company."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn’t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn’t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.

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

Chemical drain cleaners can work to clear clogs in pipes, but their use should be approached with caution. These harsh chemicals can damage pipes over time, and they can also harm the environment. Use them sparingly and consider alternative methods such as using a plunger or a drain snake. If you have concerns about a persistent clog, it's best to consult a professional who can safely and effectively address the issue without causing further damage to your plumbing system.

Some homeowners use additives every month to help septic system performance, but according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the effectiveness of septic system and leach field additives is unknown. Further, additives made with organic solvents or alkali chemicals can actually be harmful to the necessary bacteria in a septic system.

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.
