"Great.! DB’s Plumbing sent Trevor out to fix the problem and he was great. The price was right and he got the drain going fast. He was knowledgeable offered solutions to my other plumbing issues I have at the house. He also gave me a quote for another job I needed done, so I will use them again that’s for sure."

"One faucet required locating the inside water line leading to the faucet, and then cutting through paneling and sheetrock to remove and replace the faucet. The work was somewhat messy but they cleaned it up well, replaced the insulation & covered the exposed area with a removeable access panel.
The other faucet was easier to replace and included correcting sloppy work that had been done when the previous faucet had been installed.
The two workers were polite , neat and careful not to track water and mud into the house or basement

"I recently had a new MagicPak System installed through SwiftPro, along with vent cleaning and a digital thermostat and breaker switch installation, and I couldn't be happier with the results! David and his team (Alex, Aaron and Oscar!) were professional, efficient, and truly committed to delivering high-quality work. They walked me through the entire process, took great care of me — answered all my questions with patience, and ensured everything was functioning perfectly before they left. The vents are spotless, and the new thermostat is easy to use and a real game-changer for managing my condo’s comfort. I’m beyond impressed with their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction. If you're looking for reliable experts, the SwiftPro team is the one to call!!!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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.

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.

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.

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

If your dishwasher keeps filling with water at the bottom but doesn’t fill into the sink, the issue is likely due to a blockage within the dishwasher or drain. Regularly clean your dishwasher filter basket to ensure it’s not clogged with food, and run a vinegar rinse periodically if you have hard water to remove limescale buildup.
