"Jeff came out to diagnose an issue with my sump pump. After pointing out the cheap setup from the builder (home is less than 2 years old), he quoted me a fair price to replace the pump, clean the sump area out, replace the check valve (which was leaking), and do a better job routing the drain pipe. Things seem to be working great so far which is wonderful with all the rain (he finished the job even with it pouring buckets outside)."

"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."

""After 15 years of enduring water and flooding damage to our yard and the foundation of our house, and after trying various 'solutions' from well-intentioned landscapers that never truly resolved the issues, we ultimately decided to engage Drainage and Erosion Solutions. We required comprehensive flood control and damage mitigation, and their expert team skillfully implemented swales, dry creeks, catch basins, and channel drains in areas where water management was critical. They also replaced a water-damaged window well, removed a flagstone patio to install drain basins and drainage pipes, and flawlessly reinstalled it. The supervisor and crew displayed remarkable knowledge, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to detail throughout the entire project. This system has been operational for several months now, and even during the most intense rainfall, which historically led to road flooding, my house and foundation remain dry. We enthusiastically endorse this company without reservation.""

"The sink in one of my bathrooms hasn't been usable for almost two years.  I am in the process of fixing up my place to sell so I thought I would finally have it replaced along with a new one for the master bathroom.  Since Mahon Plumbing did such a fantastic job installing my new water heater, I decided to use them again.  While Sean was here on 10/21/2015 to replace the water heater, I asked him about the faucets since I wasn't sure what kind of faucet I needed.  He told me I needed a three hole faucet (which shocked me because I thought the current one was one hole). 

I looked at the website where Mahon orders their parts and found two faucets that I really liked.  I called Anne Marie again and asked her to order them for me and make an appointment to have them installed.

I also needed to have the flapper in the toilet tank replaced because I had to jingle the handle all the time.

Mike arrived for this appointment.  He did a great job installing the new faucets and toilet flapper.  

I am really pleased with the way they look and I no longer have to jingle the handle !

Again, I recommend Mahon Plumbing"

"My experience with this company was great. I was able to tell them my issues and they gave me several options. Ultimately we went for the full French Drain system. Everything was done on time and the estimates were very fair. Warranty on the work is great. I would call them again if needed."

"Very well. The pipe had a pinhole leak in a copper elbow joint and required cutting the pipe, in a confined space, to drain standing water. G**** Miranda did a remarkable job repairing the pipe and an adjacent supply pipe I elected to have repaired in case its joint might leak. Workmanship was exceptional, potential mess and additional Sheetrock damage was minimized, G**** Miranda worked tirelessly for 3 hours and produced a satisfactory repair."

"I contacted Chris at Clifton Contracting as he had finished the basement to find a drainage expert and was surprised to find out that he does drainage work as well. Chris and his team at Exterior Waterproofing Experts responded quickly to my problem and stemmed the flow of water into my house. They installed an exterior French drain to divert water from my foundation and sealed the basement wall to ensure no further damage. Just like his work in completing my basement, Chris and his team were on time and within budget. I can rest knowing my home is safe. If you have a drainage issue, I highly recommend you call Exterior Waterproofing Experts."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Water leaking through your basement floor is a good sign of a clogged drain, but another sign of a clogged basement floor drain can include unpleasant odors coming from the drain. Also, hearing gurgling noises when water drains from the basement or having other plumbing fixtures (like toilets or other drains) backing up is a good indicator.

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.

There are a few ways to unclog a toilet without a plunger. Break up the clog with homemade solutions containing soap, vinegar, and baking soda, or simply let hot water spend some time in the drain. You can also use a two-liter soda bottle filled with water to push pressurized water into the pipe to dislodge the debris (see the steps above).

Snakes can occasionally enter homes through shower drains, although it’s quite rare. This can happen when they follow sewer pipes or accidentally find their way into plumbing systems. To minimize the risk, consider installing drain covers or stoppers on your shower drains. Always keep drains closed when they’re not in use, especially in areas where snakes are known to be active.

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.
