"I called Winners Sewer & Drain to clear two clogged bathroom sinks in our tenant's apartment. Jesse called and explained their services and the cost. Jesse coordinated with my tenant to complete the job. After the job was complete, Jesse followed up with pictures of the material that was causing the clog. Very professional, punctual and honest company. I will definitely call them back for any sewer and drain clogs."

"The team at 24 Seven were great! Candace and Diana were prompt in their response and arranged the appointment swiftly. 5 stars to Robert the plumber who put in the extra hard work and determination to remedy my plumbing issue. It should have been fairly routine drain cleanout but proved to be a bit of a pain and Robert’s expertise, patience and determination shined. He was polite and respectful. Prompt and efficient. I would certainly call them again. Now I can use my bathroom sink again without worry!"

"Excellent ...perfection ...professional ...courteous ...polite ...patient efficient .... if u need a plumber these are the guys to call ...... I had a leak under my large kitchen farmhouse double sink with plumbing set up for a dishwasher a garbage disposal a spray hose and a water filter with a reserve tank ..... the leak was intermittent ...... some times a lot of water sometimes a small puddle sometimes nothing ..... I tried several times to locate the source .... I live in a co-op apt so I had friends who were handy fixing there own plumbing issues take a look at the pipes ....I had the super /maintenance-guy check it out nobody could find what was leaking ...it was time to call a plumber.... Quite frankly I was dreading this whole experience.... when would they be able to come ...how long would this take to locate the problem....would they really be able to fix it since no one could find it ..... would they have the parts .... well Leonard called, said he could come the same day at 3pm.... he came 15 minutes early ..... I showed him the sink he immediately went to work ..... Thank God Leonard was patient .... It took 60 minutes to figure out that all of my devices under the sink when used, caused different levels of pressure on the drain pipe. The spray hose caused little pressure so small puddle leak, dishwasher lots of water lots of pressure so a big leak......this caused the drain pipe joints to become loose, the seal to be broken, and the water to leak out sometimes, that was why it seemed intermittent. But the real problem was the drain pipe was severely clogged because the pipes were not at the right slant to make the water run properly down the drain using gravity .....so the water just sat there and since I use a garbage disposal u can only imagine how badly clogged it was ....Leonard said we needed to fix the slant on the pipes then fix the joints and reseal pipes. But first and most importantly it needed to be snaked. So he went to his truck come back in 5 minutes used 25 foot snake 3 times he said it was not clear I could see this myself as the water was not going down the pipes .... At this point, I figured we would have to call the co-op board to get their plumber to snake the pipes in the building to fix this issue ......all I could think was this was getting worse .....Leonard said he just needed a longer snake he called his brother who came in 5 minutes with a 50 foot snake he used the 50 foot snake twice that finally cleared it .....no more filthy water ....he adjusted the slant of pipes ...put in new pipes with new seal ...... Leonard and his brother cleaned up all the debris got equipment packed and was gone in 10 minutes ....problem solved all of this only took 2 hours ....! Sink and all devices work perfectly now.... Absolutely Incredible!!!!!!"

"5 Stars * Dr. Irwin Harrington is the best!!! If you need a home inspection or mold assessment, stop looking and call Dr. Harrington. He is thorough, detailed, and takes the time to explain exactly what needs attention and why. He walked me through every issue he found and made sure I genuinely understood the condition of the property, not just a checklist of findings. His knowledge and attention to detail go well beyond what I expected from a standard inspection. He answered every question patiently and clearly cares about the people he's working for. If you're looking for an inspector who is honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping you understand your property, Dr. Harrington is who you want. Highly recommend."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Usually it’s fine to leave a toilet clogged overnight, as long as it’s not close to overflowing. In some cases, the extra time may give the clog time to work itself out. For example, if it’s caused by an excess of toilet paper, letting it sit could result in the clog dissolving and you may be able to simply flush it away by the time you wake up. 

Only let it sit though if you have more than one toilet in the home.

Avoid flushing non-degradable items, schedule regular inspections, and address minor clogs promptly.

A clogged air gap can cause a dishwasher not to drain. There are, however, other potential issues that can lead to improper drainage. For example, if you have attached the air gap to a garbage disposal and forgotten to remove the knockout plug, wastewater may backflow into the dishwasher. Check that the air gap is installed properly, and then look for clogs in the air gap and dishwasher filters. 

Grease buildup, tree roots, and foreign objects often cause blockages. Regular maintenance prevents major issues.

If you have a sink stopper, it can feel more challenging to clean the drain without removing it, but here are a few simple steps:

  • Pour ½ cup baking soda into the drain using a funnel

  • Pour 1 ½ cups vinegar into the drain

  • Close the sink stopper for 15–20 minutes

  • Open the drain

  • Pour 2 cups of boiling water down the drain (be cautious as boiling water can damage some types of pipes)

If the drain isn’t unclogged, repeat the process.
