"Technician Assessed The Job Gave A Fair Price And Applied The Coupon From Angie's List! The Washer Drain Was Unclogged By Getting On The Roof (Who Knew) And Is Working Great! We Had Bought A Replacement Faucet And Handles; Just In Case Replacing Was The More Sensible Option Vs Repairing And As It Turns Out The Kit That Would Have Been Needed To Repair Our Dated Faucet And Handles Would Have Taken More Time And Money! Now Installing The New One Still Was No Small Task, But Our Technician Worked Diligently And I'm Happy To Report No More Drip! Atomic Plumbing & Drain Cleaning Is Definitely Our New Go To For Future Plumbing Needs!"

"I had a serious issue with my kitchen sink drain pipe and my bathroom shower stem. Patrick came to my house on time with a very courteous, friendly, professional attitude. As he was repairing my plumbing needs he explained to me step by step what he was doing. He assessed everything to me and in a timely manner was able to complete the jobs with flying colors. I'll tell you this... Patrick is a hero to me. Thank you, Patrick, and thank you A1 Sewer & Drain Plumbing. This business is 2/2 for me and most definitely my go-to company for all of my plumbing needs! I rate you 10 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!!!"

"I had an encapsulation accomplished along with beam repairs, fungicide treatment, beam repairs, jack installation, French drain, etc.. It was a project that took a few weeks. Over that time the teams were always on time, cordial, friendly, and upbeat. They modified a few items based on my personal preferences without any issues. Any concerns I had were immediately addressed and none were overlooked. The teams kept the house clean, and made me aware of progress each day. The office staff was also outstanding, any calls I made were always returned quickly and had positive results. The job turned out wonderful. The work looks fantastic. I am very happy with the outcome."

"Our plumber was excellent. Really great customer service. Took the time to explain everything he was doing. Gave us great advice. We called for a drain clog. When he got there, he noticed our water heater was super old and suggested we get a new one soon. He gave us individual quotes for all services. We elected to do a new water heater and he installed it same day. I would definitely recommend this business! Keep up the good work."

"Bert and his crew did a great job on my French drain. It only too two days and they was done. Landscaped the area nicely and put down grass seed, which I was not expecting. Give Bert a call."

Unsealed porous foundation walls. Efflorescence has grown along the outside walls.
Plastic is laid out to protect the freshly pained walls and floor.
Open vents in the foundation walls allow outside air and moisture to infiltrate the crawl space, increasing the relative humidity and allowing mold spores to thrive inside.
Spray foam application in progress on warehouse walls.
The dirt floor is exposed, which will allow the moisture from the earth to rise uncontested into the crawl space, adding to the increase in relative humidity.

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Yes, continuing to flush a clogged toilet is not likely to break up the clog. Instead, it will continue to put pressure on the clog while filling the bowl with more water, which can potentially cause the toilet to overflow—leading to an even bigger mess. Rather than repeatedly flushing, use a toilet plunger or plumber’s snake to dislodge the clog.

Vinegar is better for an AC drain line because it’s less corrosive and won’t damage the pipes. It’s also a safer and easier product to use. Bleach should not be used on your AC drain line because it can corrode your pipes and harm the evaporator coil in your air conditioner.

If you have a sink stopper, it can feel more challenging to clean the drain without removing it, but here are a few simple steps:

  • Pour ½ cup baking soda into the drain using a funnel

  • Pour 1 ½ cups vinegar into the drain

  • Close the sink stopper for 15–20 minutes

  • Open the drain

  • Pour 2 cups of boiling water down the drain (be cautious as boiling water can damage some types of pipes)

If the drain isn’t unclogged, repeat the process.

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.

French drains may fail when they become clogged with soil granules that slip through the pores of the landscaping fabric and through the holes in the pipe. 

Over time, this debris can build up inside the pipe and prevent water flow. To prevent this failure from happening, regularly flush out your French drain and keep debris away from the inlet grate.
