"They responded and got me on the schedule quickly. I had a troublesome clogged up kitchen sink that I had been working on for a week straight. Michael located the source of the problem out in a drain line in my yard. There were loads of grease chunks, a hole where dirt was getting in, and the pipe was sloping up instead of down. He replaced the drain pipe and relocated it so that it would drain appropriately into the septic. Problem solved! My sink has never drained so fast since moving in a couple years ago. Hardworking and great customer service, including clean up after. I appreciate what they did for me. Was glad to find a good service company that was local."

"Plumber arrived without his helper who called off for the day. This left him short handed as he needed to get on the roof to clear the kitchen drain through the roof vent. He couldn’t do it because the equipment was too heavy to haul up the ladder by himself. So he overcame the issues by using other equipment and got the job done from inside the kitchen and charged us less. The only complaint is one simple kitchen drain clog (less than 30 min) still cost over $400. Seems excessive?"

"We hired them for a complete sewer line replacement. We evaluated several potential vendors and chose them because of their past ratings and affordable pricing. Their work was completed very fast, thorough and quite professionally. The overall job and clean up was also impeccable. I also received several compliments from neighboring businesses that observed their work as well from start to finish. They were quite impressed as well!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes difficult to distinguish a clog from a frozen drainpipe since ice technically causes a clog. If the temperature doesn’t tip you off, there are a few additional signs that your pipe is frozen. Look for condensation and frost around the pipes. Ice in pipes can cause a banging or clanking noise as opposed to a clog from a softer material.

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.

If you leave liquid drain cleaner for too long, it will start breaking down your drainpipes. The chemicals in these cleaners can cause cracks, corrosion, and leaks in your pipes. They can also damage plumbing fixtures and even cause environmental damage if left too long without rinsing away.

Sometimes, the drain is just too clogged—thanks, stubborn hair and soap scum. In this case, you’ll need a more powerful drain cleaner than you can DIY safely at home. But this doesn’t mean you have to choose a traditional drain cleaner. 

You can find biodegradable drain cleaners at your local home improvement store or online for those drains that need a little more oomph

While on the hunt for a formidable drain cleaner, the best options are non-chemical clog solutions that combine enzymes and bacteria.

Air gaps get clogged by a few different means. Over time, food and grime can collect in the air gap, leading to a blockage. Mineral deposits from hard water are a common problem. Mineral buildup creates a film in the air gap and tubing, which can cause flow issues, as well as attract debris. Homeowners with hard water may want to remove mineral deposits regularly to keep the air gap clean and clear.
