"I recently hired The Homeworks Doctor to repair a mal-functioning exhaust fan in my master bathroom. Roy clearly explained how to identify the model and where to obtain a replacement fan/motor assembly. His guidance avoided a lot of unnecessary construction and duct work, saving me hundreds of dollars. Roy was professional and responsive throughout the process, and my fan is now fully operational. Highly recommend!"

"Jared was awesome. From the initial phone call through the end of the job he was very professional and courteous. Assessed the problem, took the time to explain to me exactly what he planned on doing, and went over the possible outcomes (good and bad). Got right to work and had the drain clear in no time. 5 star experience all the way around and would absolutely recommend him to anyone who needs a plumber. Hopefully I won’t need a plumber again any time soon, but I know who I’ll call if I do."

"I scheduled an appointment for a Wednesday on a Monday morning. I called to confirm details and was pleasently surprised when they were able to come that Monday afternoon due to a weather related resecheduling of a job. I received a text when they were on route and they arrived on time. They quickly accessed the situation and correctly identified the cause and location of the clogged drain. The Warrens, a father and son run business, were a pleasure to work with. Their communication throughout the incident was excellent. If fact I wil be using their service on additional plumbing work in the near furture."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

Plumbers use a variety of tools to help unclog the toughest of drain clogs, but the most common tools they use are drain snakes and augers. They try a plunger or drain snake to start, then move to heavy-duty augers, and finally try using a hydro jetter to blast away the clog with high-pressure water. Hiring a plumber to unclog a drain costs $125 to $300, largely depending on the extent and location of the clog and which of these methods is best for clearing it.

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.

It takes hair about two years to dissolve on its own in the drain without the use of any tool or help. Fortunately, using a drain snake, plunger, or any of the actions mentioned above to dissolve the hair will help get rid of the clog in as little as 15 minutes.
