"Initially I had problems with a dehumidifier and drain hose were leaking because they were not properly installed. I wrote a one star review based on that. However, since then JES responded to my complaint and Brian came out and did a thorough job of installing a drain system for my dehumidifier, I was also impressed by a follow up phone call about my review and the subsequent work. I have upgraded my review of JES."

"I highly recommend RCR Plumbing! José and Carlos were amazing?professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. They replaced a toilet and repaired a section of sewer line under my house. They responded quickly, completed the work efficiently, and kept everything clean inside my home. Their pricing was extremely fair, and the quality of their work was excellent. I?ll definitely call them again for any future plumbing needs!"
"This job went extremely well. Michelangelo enterprises was professional, courteous, prompt, and honest. We had our job scheduled and completed within one week of purchasing the Angie's list deal. They were courteous and friendly on the phone setting up appointment. The men arrived when scheduled and the work was complete within a couple hours. We added stairs and a hallway and sitting room. The additional cost was very fair. I was aware of the $2/stair charge that was not part of the coupon and this was money well spent! In a house with 3 teenagers, 3 dogs and 3 cats, I never expected to have my carpets look new again! And they do, thanks to the fine work of Michelangelo Enterprises! Worth noting is this is a locally based company in the Northern Virginia area, so I made sure to read only prior reviews that seemed valid to this carpet cleaning company from Fairfax, Virginia."
"Wilson Delgado's repair and restoration of our wooden kitchen table and chairs was outstanding. It had scratches and stains and it is now perfect! It looks better than when we originally bought it. He added a beautiful finish to the table so that it shines. And he is simply the nicest, most customer oriented, honest person. His quote was so reasonable and he did the whole job within 2 weeks! I highly recommend him and his company!"
"CSI did a thorough inspection, provide analysis, detailed report of findings and provided pictures of the areas with issues as well as aerial views of the house, lot and surrounding area. We are definitely hiring them for the Final Home Inspection and analysis."
"I am extremely happy with the gutters and downspouts that Rife Remodeling and Flooring installed. They exceeded all my expectations regarding: 1. Cost 2. Time 3. Look/function 4. Honesty/integrity They completed the job same day, were professional, courteous, and trustworthy. The crew for Rife Remodeling and Flooring were left unattended with full access to the property and it's contents. When we got home that evening, the job was done, and they had completely cleaned up after themselves and left no debris in the yard or driveway. I will be a returning customer and would recommend them to anyone for any of your home repair needs."
That pungent rotten egg smell coming from your drain is likely the buildup of biofilm—hair, skin, and soap scum that turns into a black sticky mess. In this case, pouring down near-boiling water, baking soda, and white vinegar will remove the smell. Keep in mind that a rotten egg smell is occasionally a sign of larger sewage line clogs and other related issues.
Septic tanks can clog if they aren’t pumped every few years since solid waste accumulates inside of them. Your tank might also clog if you have a habit of flushing anything other than human waste or toilet paper. Items like diapers, baby wipes, paper towels, cat litter, and personal hygiene products should never go down your pipes.
You can unclog an AC drain line for free if you already have these household ingredients: water, vinegar, and rags. Alternatively, if you’d rather not deal with the mess, you can hire a pro to clear your drain line. If you go that route, an HVAC service call costs between $100 and $250.
Baking soda and vinegar aren’t just great for making a volcano for your kid’s science project. You can also pour this dynamic duo down your shower drain to dissolve hair clogs. If that doesn’t do the trick, you can step it up with a commercial liquid drain cleaner.
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.
