"They got here when they said they would, finished when they said they would. They did some extra adjusting of fixtures for us. We called them to come back for another plumbing issue that we noticed!"

"The bill shows 8% sales tax on a tax exempt Home improvement. I explained that New York State form ST241 would help eliminate the sales tax portion of the billing on this home improvement when signed off by both parties. The project was completed perfectly as expected."

"Jared was very easy to work with. He is very knowledgeable and has excellent background in this business having been a manager of a rooter router business for 10 years prior to starting his own business. He listened carefully to what I told him we did to try to fix the problem before calling him. After he arrived he looked over the house plumbing to further analyze what needed to be done. He then went right to work explaining the main drain cleaning process and the steps he would take in using his cleaning auger machine to accomplish unclogging the line. We could see the positive results and unobstructed water flow in the line as he finished using his machine. I was pleased he have us his card before he left as I would definitely call him in the future if needed."

"I recently hired Woodys Drain Service for a plumbing issue, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service. They responded quickly, arrived on time, and were professional and courteous throughout the visit. The plumber, Jeff, diagnosed the problem efficiently and explained everything in a clear and honest manner. The repair was completed the same day, and the price was fair with no hidden fees. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and respect for my home — they even cleaned up the area afterward. I highly recommend them for any plumbing needs and will definitely use them again."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

A washing machine should drain the water used during its cycle through a drainpipe and out through the house’s plumbing. This is the same plumbing that sinks and shower drains run to, and if the U-bend is installed correctly, it shouldn’t smell. The total drainage from the house is then integrated into the city sewer system or, if you’re in the country, dispersed into a septic tank.

Yes, short hair can clog a drain. While you might be tempted to blame the long-haired people living with you for a clogged drain, hair—no matter the length—can combine with soap scum and leftover shampoo to create a perfect storm of sticky mess that can cause your drain to slow down. 

Yes—your local septic company can clean your septic leach lines with a sewer jetter, a device that pumps high-pressure water through the lines to blast out any clogs and scum buildup. Unless there’s a clog or blockage in the lines, however, you do not need to perform this maintenance regularly. Do not attempt to clean your own leach lines, as you could easily damage them, leading to very costly repairs.

If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.

Clearing typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the blockage size and location.
