"I am so grateful for this wonderful plumber. He’s honest, efficient and a master at what he does.I have an old home with plumbing issues. My son put a toilet in that did not fit the old pipes. Robert was able to diagnose the problem when the previous plumber could not. Robert went to three places to find the proper toilet to fit in my upstairs bathroom. He is a genius and is honest as the day is long. He could’ve charged me a lot more than he did, but he is honest and a professional. I will use him again and again. Thank you, Lori"

"I was pleased with every aspect of the service provided. He came the day before a holiday, brought the new water heater with him, removed the old one and installed the new one in a very short time. He was even willing to give my son some advice on a faucet change out my son was working on. The price was very reasonable and the plumber was friendly and responsive. I am thrilled to have found my forever plumber!!"

"Jesse was really wonderful - knowledgeable, understanding, and he had all of the necessary tools to get the job done. Our job required some snaking of pipes, and he also had a camera to put through the pipes to make sure that everything was clear. We appreciated Drain & Main's responsiveness to our request (same day), their friendliness, and their expeditious 'get it done' attitudes. We highly recommend Drain & Main Plumbing Co."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

A sewer cleanout typically looks like a white or gray PVC pipe with a removable cap. It's often located either in your yard or basement, depending on your home's plumbing configuration. The cleanout pipe is designed to provide easy access to your sewer system for maintenance and inspections. It may be flush with the ground or slightly elevated, making it distinguishable from other pipes. When you remove the cap, you can access the sewer line directly or determine its direction, which can be helpful when you need to locate your sewer line from your house to the street.

While gasket-sealed PVC flanges are the type most commonly found in homes, flanges come in a range of different materials, including copper, brass, stainless steel, cast iron, and aluminum, that pros sometimes secure with glue. If this is the case in your bathroom, the replacement is a job better left to the pros.

Choosing the right plumbing materials involves balancing durability, cost, and suitability. Common materials include copper, PEX, and PVC.

Although linear drains allow water to flow quickly and efficiently, they tend to clog more easily than traditional drains. Linear drains are flush with the shower floor, allowing soap scum and hair to potentially build up. They’re also longer than other drains, allowing for more space to let debris fall into the drainpipe. 

The general rule of thumb is that you should clean your pipes every 18 to 22 months, although the process for cleaning depends on the severity of the issue and what type of pipes you have.

That being said, regular maintenance on your pipes can help prevent the need for a full-on replacement and help extend the lifetime of your pipes by quite a bit.
