"Nathen came to my home the same day I looked into Angi. He cleaned my gutters that day and came back with supplies/tools to repair my shingles on the roof. Quickly, quietly, everything was done and cleaned up. A wonderfully respectful young man. Great pricing. Highly recommend."

"Doug was great. He arrived first thing Monday morning, removed the old water heater and had the new tankless system installed and ready to go by early afternoon. I appreciated the information he provided and how easy he was to work with. He did a quality job and I would not hesitate to contact him again for other people plumbing needs."

"Great! Mike was quick at diagnosing the problem and was able to repair the leak efficiently. He was very personable and knowledgeable and we appreciated that he left the area clean and tidy. As we live in an old house, something is always going wrong and we will definitely give him a call again when the need arises."

"Daniel was very prompt, courteous and professional. He worked with me to come up with a plan to minimize having the drain line interfere with my basement storage area. Both drain lines and water lines were pressure tested and required no additional work after install. Was very pleased and would recommend Plumb EZ to anyone needing plumbing work!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.

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. 

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.
