"I used to have sporadic flooding at the front and rear of my townhouse. P&A cleared and upgraded my garage trench drain, installed a sump pump in the garage, and another sump pump at the backyard entrance. Everything looked great but the real test came when we recently had heavy rains. After a full day and a half of storms my neighbor's basement flooded but mine was bone dry. The best part is I could just relax and not worry about bailing water out of my house anymore."

"NYC Plumbing, Heating, and Drain Cleaning was hired to clear a main drain blockage. They responded quickly and gave me a reasonable quote. They arrived in a timely manner and resolved the problem within a few minutes. I was informed of the issue and was told that the main drain was snaked out both going into the home and out to the street. I highly recommend them for any drain blockage work you may need."

"The main problem we had originally was that the drain in the yard was clogged. He ran his drain snake machine and unclogged in issue. We had another issue in our basement and they had also explained what we should do in the future to prevent clogging there as well. Overall I was happy with the quick service and that they had explained the technical bits of the problem to us."

"Val, Is the most understanding human being I've met. He listened to my rant regarding my issue & made me pump my breaks. I was at my wits end & Val told me he was coming to help. He sent Robert, Robert is an amazing human being, he calmed my soul. He calmed me down & told me not to worry. He said he would fix it & he did just as he said. He had empathy/compassion for me & that went a long way. He cleaned up after & was very professional. I will tell the world about 24 Seven Plumbing, INC. Never will I call another plumber in my life. Thank you Val/Robert."

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."

"Great experience with Eno Plumbing. They responded right away, although it was 6 am. Came shortly afterwards. Offered me several options to deal with my broken water heater. Went out of the way to accommodate my every wish. Installed it fast, clean and very professional. Took care of another problem I had with my circulation pump. Picked up used items and cleaned after themselves. Very friendly and positive e guys. Recommend to everyone."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

You can try several easy methods to unclog a drain, one of the easiest and most effective of which is to use a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. This will help dislodge and dissolve the clog to move it down the drain pipes. Pour 1/2 cup baking soda into the drain, followed by 1/2 cup of white vinegar. Dump several cups of boiling water (or hot water if you have PVC pipes) into the drain and let sit for up to one hour. Run hot water to clear the drain.

Inspect regularly for clogs, clean drain lines, and ensure grading directs water away from the foundation.

Knowing the signs can alert you to a clogged drain line. Clogs cause slow drainage or cause no drainage (if there’s a complete blockage). You may also notice foul odors, gurgling noises, water backing up in other appliances on the same line, or a poorly flushing toilet. If you experience any of these issues and think your line might be clogged, call a plumber.

There are several homemade solutions for clearing a clogged sink that don’t involve pouring harsh chemicals down your drain. Start by pouring hot (but not boiling) water down the drain. This can help dissolve and flush away grease and gunk. A splash of dish soap down the drain can also cut through fat and make it easier to clear the drain. For a more stubborn blockage, grab a plunger and give it a few firm pumps to dislodge the clog.

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.
