"Had a plumbing emergency on a Sunday evening. Spoke with Jay that night and he was on site Monday morning. Repaired broken pipe, fixed wall where he cut to access pipe, and even snaked the drain for a VERY reasonable price. They were very personable and entertaining as well. I highly recommend these guys."

"Dan was able to come out on a Sunday very last minute to work on a clogged sink for my mom. He was beyond professional during our communication. Not only did he do a fantastic job, he kept me in the loop the whole way through. He was very thorough and clean (my mom is clean/neat freak). I would absolutely recommend him to others and will use him again."

"Our kitchen drain had been sluggish for quite a while. We finally called a plumber and were happy to find out he could come out within a few days. Just, as promised he showed up on time and was ready to tackle our plumbing problems. He and his son in-law are a two man team who work great together and are genuinely concerned about fixing any plumbing problems that exist. One of our plumbing problems was a stubborn clog that had settled in a sloping pvc pipe. They diligently worked on it until it was completely cleaned out. First they fixed the slope by giving it much needed support with braces and brackets. Then they worked on the clog. Once it appeared to be cleared out they ran the water to make sure the clog was completely gone,not just moved farther down.. I'm very glad they took that extra precaution because after they had run the water for about 10 minutes the water began to back up again. So they decided to cut through the pipe to physically remove the greasy, clog. They sealed up the pipe and tested the drain again for clear passage. Now the drainage in my kitchen sink is working better than it ever has. There is no build up of water. There were other problems that needed to be addressed and our real plumbers found a working solution for all of them. These two men are very knowledgeable and helpful in suggesting the best way to solve plumbing problems. And their suggestions are not necessarily the most expensive solutions, but rather the most effective. I would definitely call on them again. In fact several days after their visit, we did need them again. There was a problem that was NOT related to the clogged drain. As with the first visit, they came right out. They discussed the best way to handle the plumbing problem and fixed it at a very reasonable rate. We're glad we found "A REAL PLUMBER." It's good to know that a reliable, reasonably priced team of plumbers is only a phone call away."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

In some cases, operating a snake can damage your drain and pipes. This depends on the overall condition of your pipes and how gently you operate the auger. For instance, older galvanized pipes covered in zinc are susceptible to scratches when using a drain snake. Additionally, it’s common for newbies to apply too much force when extending the snake, leading to scratches and related damage. You can also crack the porcelain with an electric auger if you’re snaking a toilet drain. If you’re using a manual snake or auger, the risk is minimal.

Bleach—even diluted bleach—is not always the safest option for cleaning your drains. With a high pH, bleach can be highly corrosive to many types of pipes, especially when used regularly. When mixed with household cleaners and organic waste, it can also create dangerous chemicals. Remember to use proper protective equipment and ventilation when dealing with bleach.

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.

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.

When you put baking soda and vinegar down the drain, they chemically react and help break down clogs. It’s not going to work for every type of clog, however. For example, it’s not the best way to get rid of grease buildup. For grease, you should try boiling water and white vinegar instead.
