"The senior project specialist was Jimmy. He did a great job of keeping us informed at all stages of the project (interior drain tile installation). Nanod was the plumber who did the final installation of the sump pump set-up and discharge configuration. Nanod did an outstanding job on the route of the discharge piping , having assessed that the originally considered discharge configuration might have adversely affected our neighbor."
"The overall install went well except for a small flaw. The small hole drilled in the PVC pipe splashes wtr out of the sump when pmp is activated. I now have to try to cover a portion of the sump to eliminate the issue."
"Renew Basement Foundation installed an egress window in my basement. The work they did was excellent and my egress window is beautiful. I would definitely hire them again for any basement related project. They handled the entire project from end-to-end, permitting, install, and cleanup. They also made recommendations for options that I had not considered that resulted in a significantly better looking final result versus what I had originally chosen."
"I was provided the fully modulating high efficient furnace solution that I wanted and received a profession installation within one week of purchase. 60-month, zero interest financing was also offered that made the decision easy. I would highly recommend Capital Heating and Cooling for your residential HVAC needs."
"Staff was always on time. Gave a very fair price. Only issue is that they had to replace a valve, as it was draining water daily. I would recommend them"
"Blue Star did an incredible job. We hired them to install raised garden beds in the front of our house using concrete block and caps. They were punctual, worked fast and paid great attention to detail. My neighbors are all looking to hire Rodrigo and his crew for their landscaping projects now. We've received so many compliments. Thanks Blue Star."
"Roberto did a drain in our back yard and did a great job. I asked him to quote our patio which needed alot of work. The quote was competitive so we hired him for that as well. Him and his crew were excellent and they do a phenomenal job. Highly recommend."
"Extremely happy with the sales, service and result! My basement is dry after years of leaking. Corey B was great! He answered all my questions and was very thorough about the explaining the process. The installation team communicated prior to their arrival, started work immediately and finished in record time. I assumed there would be dust everywhere-but the area was clean! So happy I went with AccuLevel."
Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts
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.
A clogged air gap can cause a dishwasher not to drain. There are, however, other potential issues that can lead to improper drainage. For example, if you have attached the air gap to a garbage disposal and forgotten to remove the knockout plug, wastewater may backflow into the dishwasher. Check that the air gap is installed properly, and then look for clogs in the air gap and dishwasher filters.
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.
Clogs in a sprinkler valve can be caused by various factors, including debris in the water supply, sediment buildup inside the valve, or damage to the diaphragm. Debris and sediment can accumulate over time, obstructing the valve's passages and impeding water flow. Damaged diaphragms may develop tears or holes, leading to blockages and affecting the valve's ability to open or close properly. Regular maintenance and cleaning can help prevent and address these issues, ensuring your sprinkler valve operates smoothly.
If you’re not using a septic system, problems with your home’s plumbing won’t cause this—it’s a city problem. A large blockage in the municipal sewage lines may cause those lines to back up into your home. This is extremely unpleasant and can be a serious health risk due to bacteria and other contaminants. If this occurs, call a pro (or your city) immediately.
