OUR PARTNERS
What type of warranty do you offer for garbage disposal installation and repair services?
As a licensed plumber, I offer a warranty of one year for garbage disposal installation and repair services.
How can I tell if a clogged drain is affecting the water pressure in my home?
A clogged drain can affect water pressure in your home if it is causing a blockage in the plumbing system. This can lead to reduced water flow and lower water pressure in your fixtures.
What are the most common causes of stubborn clogs in drains, and what methods do you use to effectively remove them during the drain cleaning process?
The most common causes of stubborn clogs in drains are built-up debris, grease, hair, soap scum, and mineral deposits. To effectively remove them during the drain cleaning process, plumbers typically use methods such as snaking the drain with an auger, using a drain snake or drain cleaning tool, hydro jetting to blast away the clog with high-pressure water, or using chemical drain cleaners as a last resort.
How long does the basement waterproofing process typically take, and what can I expect in terms of disruption to my daily routine during the project?
The basement waterproofing process typically takes 1-2 weeks to complete, depending on the size of the project. During the project, you can expect some disruption to your daily routine, such as noise from equipment, dust, and limited access to certain areas of your home.
How often should I schedule sewer drain clearing maintenance to prevent blockages in the future?
As a licensed plumber, it is recommended to schedule sewer drain clearing maintenance at least once a year to prevent blockages in the future.
