"A1 Comfort Heating & Cooling lived up to their name. They provided A1 service. The installation was in a 130+ year old house and required some creativity to install some of the pipes because of the structure of the house. These gentlemen rose to the challenge and did an amazing job."
"Estimator came out quickly, was very personable, and could schedule my install appointment a few weeks later right then and there. When the tech came out he was polite, efficient, and very quick. Overall I was very happy with the service and would recommend them to others if the price is competitive with another company. "

"Fireplace was fine (OPPOSITE of what I had been told by another chimney sweep). Oil burner side ...not so good. Flue was heavily cracked and deteriorated. Entire flue pieces laying at base. Since this could be a carbon monoxide hazard and I quite often have small children in the house, I didn't think it was anything I should let go unresolved (although I was NOT anticipating spending a couple of thousand dollars at the time). Bottom line: New stainless steel liner put in. Liner secured and resealed top and bottom. New cap installed - and cracked top cement crown on chimney was replaced with a rubberized product. Warranty on liner is transferable with the house when/if sold. While I was not thrilled about hitting my emergency fund for something that you can't SEE, obviously it was important to get it done. I was eligible for a Senior discount (am I the only one THRILLED to be older when a Senior discount is offered)? You hit a certain age ... every penny saved helps. Jon Paul was wonderful. Not a pushy sales person. Straight and to the point. Explained everything in detail. Personable. My 4 year old great niece was with me for an overnight visit and she immediately took to him. (Pay attention to the little ones ~ they're very good judges of character). I will recommend them at every opportunity and call them again if the need arises. Five Stars from me!!!"
"We had a pipe break in our second floor bathroom. We were able to stop the leak the morning after the leak happened, and we called our insurance, and they told to call S I restoration. They sent out a crew of 4 or 5 people, tore out the carpet, and set up fans that eventually dried everything out. We started to notice that it was a while before anyone from SI restoration would come in and actually start the restoration. The demolition crew was very prompt, but not the restoration crew. When they finally would come out, they would only work for 2-3 hours and then they would disappear. The work they did was very good. The bad news is that they would send out workers and there would be very inexperienced supervisors of the workers that would come out. When the supervision is bad, the workers don't seem to work all that hard. We complained to our insurance agent because we hired them upon his recommendation, he was disappointed in them. We tried to talk to the owners, but they were out of town, and the people that they sent were so inexperienced, it was nearly impossible to work with them. We simply wanted to get the work done. My husband complained to the company and things improved from there. From there, the work started to pick up. One thing that really upset me was that they turned in hours into the insurance company that both myself, and the inexperienced supervisor knew wasn't accurate. The good news again, is that once they finally completed the job, was that it was a very good job. The bad news was that it was very poorly managed."
"Workmen worked very hard to get the job done in 3 days. They clearly knew what they were doing. Hauling dirt and bricks in buckets up stairs in 85 degree heat was amazing. I hope they got their fair share of the cost of installation."
Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts
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.
You’ll likely pay between $300 and $450 to unclog your toilet with Roto-Rooter. However, the price could change depending on if the clog has caused a lot of damage, which your plumbing pro will want to inspect during your service appointment. Keep in mind that you won’t get a quote from Roto-Rooter over the phone. They have to send a pro out for an in-person cost estimate. You can also attempt to snake your own clog for a lot less, and simple drain snakes cost no more than $50.
Most blockages can be cleared in 1-3 hours, but severe issues may take longer.
The best way to unclog a bathtub drain is to pour a pot of boiled water down the drain, being careful not to splash yourself. However, take precautions, as boiling water can damage PVC pipes and joints. Follow up with ½ cup of baking soda and ½ cup of vinegar. Cover the drain with a small sink plunger and let it sit for 15 minutes. Pour boiling water down the drain again and replace the drain stopper.
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.
