"NYC Plumbing, Heating and Drain provided great service in an emergency and on a Sunday. I was impressed and relieved especially after having contacted several plumbing companies who scheduled me two to three days later. Lazer was courteous and friendly and explained the problem and solution. Thank you!"

"Alfonso was great. He came to my house and did exactly what I asked him to. There was a pipe to cut which was rusted which he did and he replaced it with a rubber boot. He refitted the pipes of my pedestal bathroom sink which was pretty torn up after being snaked so many times due to clogged pipes. He also replaced the sinks faucet which was not easy because we had it for about 20 years so it was difficult to remove.Throughout this process Alfonso was calm and courteous and very professional. He was not cheap but his work was great and he is a very clean worker. The only issue I had was with the other job I had for him which was much larger and potentially involved the cutting of the pipe that was causing the persistent clog in our bathroom to begin with. This was actually the main reason why I contacted him in the first place. After he finished with the above mentioned projects he took a look and troubleshooted the job and gave me one estimate and was going to get back to me the following day with another estimate for another way to save the problem. I never heard from him again. I called, texted and practically begged him to let me know when he could return to take another look at the situation and to give me an estimate for the "other" possibility of solving the clogged pipe and he never once got back to me. to this day I have no reason why and it is a bit frustrating not to at least been given a response especially after paying good money for the first job. Just seems unusual but as far as the work he did, I have no complaints."

"They were great about returning calls and called when they realized they were to be late. It appears they unclogged 3 drains and replaced pipes underneath. My only complaint was that they left the floor in work areas a bit wet. Overall great job. happy that they were able to get the job done only 1 day after I called."

"Let me start by saying they fixed my leak, cleaned up after himself, were available to start when I needed them, and did not leave any open areas. They quoted me a price to fix a water leak in between my first and second floor bathrooms. Tony quoted me $3800 (I only had $3600) saying this was a big job after he cut a 1ft 6in hole in my 1st floor bathroom ceiling to see what is going on. He said he had to also remove the 2nd floor toilet and create another hole to work through both floors (him and his partner) to access the leak. He called his partner in and by the time it was completed they did not even remove the 2nd floor toilet - which is why I agreed to the higher price because I was led to believe it was more labor intensive."

Customers say: True professional

"I had an excellent experience with this plumber. I called them for a severely clogged drain that was causing water to back up, and they responded quickly and professionally. The plumber arrived on time, inspected the issue, explained the cause of the clog, and fixed it efficiently. What impressed me most was their professionalism, honesty, and attention to detail. They made sure the drain was completely cleared, tested everything before leaving, and left the work area clean. The pricing was fair, and there were no surprise charges. If you’re looking for a reliable plumber for clogged drains or any plumbing issue, I highly recommend their services. Fast response, quality work, and outstanding customer service. I would use them again in the future."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

No, you should avoid using liquid drain cleaners. These chemicals, often packed with sulfuric or hydrochloric acid, can wreak havoc on your pipes, causing erosion and potential leaks. They’re also dangerous to your health. If you’re dealing with a stubborn clog, manual removal or a professional plumber is your best bet. Chemical drain cleaners can often make things worse, especially if the clog stays put and the chemicals linger in your pipes.

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. 

Ever wonder what might cause your outdoor spigot to lose water flow? It's not as complicated as one might think. Something as simple as a clogged or leaky pipe could be the culprit. Some other causes are corrosion of the pipes or lack of water pressure coming from your street.

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

On average, a plumber will take 30 minutes to two hours to clear a clogged drain. If the clog is located close to the drain or an access point and isn’t severe, the project will take about half an hour. If the clog is deep within your plumbing system or is a severe blockage, it can take two or more hours to remove the clog. For this reason, main line clogs tend to take longer, usually between two and three hours.
