"Absolutely easy to work with, we had great communication throughout the project being completed. Took extra time due to myself wanting a special ordered trench drain to be used in front of the garage. We liked that they came out for a final inspection of the work that had been done and to see if we were happy with it before final payment to be made. We would hire again if needed. Good job installing the new house downspout drain pipe and trench drain."
"They did a great job installing French drains and sump pump in our basement. Great communication! They changed work plan to cater to our needs and got it done in one day, staying until it was finished. Very reasonably priced!! Highly recommend!!"
"Yes. Todd came and he did a great job of fixing my broken water pipe that had broken under my deck during winter. He went right in with all the cob webs and got the job done in no time at all. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and explained everything. I would surely have them back for any other plumbing or electrical needs i need done."
"Very well, replaced old cast plumbing from toilet to sewer. Big job in 2014 and all hands were on deck with this company. No additional problems, very happy with repair. Downtime minimal considering the scope of cutting out cast."
"When Steve came out to observe our problem, he inspected our entire inside and outside before he gave us his recommendation. He felt our problem was the gutter drains and a crawl space wet situation. He rendered a solution that we could perform ourself but also had other companies we could have called to fix the problem. If the problem continued after self fix, his other solution could be implemented which was far less expense over other waterproofing companies. I truly appreciate his honesty."
"Pro got the job done and gave a fantastic price, was pretty professional. The only issue was that the water residue cleaned out of the water heater tank wasn't fully cleaned out of my basement."
Drain clearing removes debris and clogs from drain pipes enough to allow water to drain properly. On the other hand, drain cleaning removes all of the material from the pipe so that water flows unrestricted, which is a longer-term solution. Your plumbing pro will be able to recommend the right service depending on the clog size, frequency of issues, and surrounding pipework.
There are a few ways to unclog a toilet without a plunger. Break up the clog with homemade solutions containing soap, vinegar, and baking soda, or simply let hot water spend some time in the drain. You can also use a two-liter soda bottle filled with water to push pressurized water into the pipe to dislodge the debris (see the steps above).
Start by unscrewing the overflow valve, which is located on the wall of your tub between the floor drain and the tub spout. Gently insert a plumbing snake down into the pipe, move it back and forth, and pull it out. Remove any hair, debris, and soap scum that comes out with it. Repeat the process until the snake comes out clean, and then reinstall the cap on your overflow valve.
Professional plumbers use many high-grade chemicals to unclog drains. Many use hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid, when it comes to extreme blockages.
Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you’ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.
