"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."

"He called to let us know he was on his way and arrived when he said he would. He diagnosed the problem quickly and did the needed repair. He also took an extra minute to make one additional unrelated small repair. He also looked at a third issue and gave his opinion about the needed repair. He was very professional and we would certainly use him again."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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. 

To keep your toilet from clogging, you can use less toilet paper. You can also use a liquid toilet plunger to break up any clogs and keep the toilet drain and pipes clear. When it comes to a clogged toilet, the best route is prevention by using less toilet paper and making sure the mechanisms are all working properly.

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.

Start by pouring hot—but not boiling—water down the drain. The heat of the water may be enough to break down the clog. You can also try ½ cup of dish soap or 1 cup each of white vinegar and baking soda. If you choose a chemical unclogging product, ensure it’s appropriate for toilets to avoid damage.

Clearing typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the blockage size and location.
