"Mike and his team did a solid job for us. The previous owners had punted on installing the correct solution and lied about water entering the home. When we found ¼ inch of water in our back room basement we called GMBS out and they were there within hours to do an estimate. This was one of the rainiest summers in recent memory and GMBS had a ton of business so we had to wait, but it was worth the wait. They finished the job in under 3 days and the work looks great. They installed a brand new sump pump, the old one the previous owners had installed was done poorly, was inefficient to the task and sounded like a jet engine. They installed a sub floor perimeter drainage system and vapor sealed our walls.
They were quick, professional, courteous and were easy to work with. We paid up front and part of the job was over estimated and they got a refund to us when we needed it.
I have more work I need done in the future and I plan on using Mike and his team.
"Vista installed new vinyl siding on our house and I couldn't be happier with the result. Our house looks brand new and I love the color. The communication was excellent! Every step of the project was very organized and I loved how Keith and Brian checked in every few days. The work crew was very repectful of our propery and the quality quality of work is amazing. Overall it was a refreshing, seamless experience. I would highly recommend them."
"The guys seem very nice and prompt. He is very efficient and I will hire them to do our maintenance next spring. We had them come back and had some delays but everything turned out fine."
Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts
For disposal clogs with standing water, use a sink plunger and place it over the garbage disposal drain. Push the sink plunger up and down the drain about six to eight times before lifting. If the sink drains, the clogged food particles are dislodged from the drain. If there’s still standing water, repeat the steps until the standing water clears out.
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.
Air gaps get clogged by a few different means. Over time, food and grime can collect in the air gap, leading to a blockage. Mineral deposits from hard water are a common problem. Mineral buildup creates a film in the air gap and tubing, which can cause flow issues, as well as attract debris. Homeowners with hard water may want to remove mineral deposits regularly to keep the air gap clean and clear.
A bit of water in the bowl can help unclog a toilet, especially if you're using a plunger. However, if the bowl is full to the brim, you'll need to strap on gloves and remove some of the wastewater in a cup or container so it doesn't overflow when you try to unblock the pipe. If you're concerned about it filling further, manually close the flapper in the toilet tank or turn off the water supply to the toilet.
You’ll need to stop or pause the machine using its control panel to start the draining process mid-cycle. Remove the items inside, turn off the power to the machine, and then follow the steps above to drain the machine manually.
