Why Is Your Toilet Flushing Slowly?

When your toilet flushes slowly, it’s usually a sign that something is blocking the water flow. It could be too much toilet paper, debris buildup, or something non-flushable stuck in your drain. Hard water can also leave behind mineral deposits that make it harder for water to move through your pipes.

Allow our plumbers to inspect your drain and recommend repair options that align with your finances and turnaround expectations.

What’s the Process for Fixing a Clogged Sewer Line?

Fixing your clogged sewer line starts with determining what’s causing the issue. Once we know what we’re dealing with, we choose the best repair approach—whether it’s snaking your drain to break up the clog or using high-pressure hydrojetting to flush out stubborn buildup. When we find pipe damage, we’ll recommend the right repair to get everything flowing smoothly again.

We aim to clear the blockage quickly and effectively so you can get back to enjoying a problem-free plumbing system as soon as possible.

What Do Drain Camera Inspections Entail?

When you have a stubborn clog, our plumbers use a drain camera inspection to pinpoint the problem quickly and accurately. We start by inserting a small, waterproof camera into your drain through an access point, such as a cleanout or directly into the affected pipe. The camera, attached to a flexible cable, moves through your plumbing system while sending real-time footage to a monitor, allowing us to see exactly what’s causing the blockage.

As we guide the camera through your pipes, we look for buildup, cracks, tree root intrusions, or anything else restricting water flow. This process eliminates guesswork, so we can recommend the most effective solution—whether that’s snaking, hydro jetting, or a more advanced repair.

How Much Does Drain Repair Cost?

The cost of drain repair can vary depending on several factors, and our plumbers assess each situation carefully to provide you with a fair and accurate estimate. We consider the severity of the issue, the location of the problem, and the type of repair needed. A minor clog or small pipe damage may be a quick fix, while more extensive repairs—such as replacing a damaged section of piping or addressing deep blockages—can take more time and resources.

During our inspection, we use advanced tools like drain cameras to pinpoint the exact issue, ensuring we recommend the most effective and cost-efficient solution. Whether it’s a simple repair or a more involved pipe replacement, we’ll walk you through your options and pricing before starting any work.

Does Homeowners Insurance Cover Plumbing Damage?

Whether homeowners insurance covers plumbing damage depends on the cause of the issue and the specifics of your policy. From our experience, insurance may cover sudden and accidental plumbing problems, such as burst pipes or water damage from an unexpected leak. However, if the damage is due to neglect, wear and tear, or a lack of maintenance, coverage is usually denied.

When dealing with plumbing issues, we always recommend checking your policy and speaking with your insurance provider to understand what’s covered. To make this part easier, our plumbers will gladly assess the damage and provide you with a detailed inspection report that you can present to your insurance provider.

Should You Use Baking Soda and Vinegar for Drain Cleaning?

You’ve probably heard that baking soda and vinegar can clear a clogged drain, but does it actually work? While this DIY method can help with minor buildup and odors, it’s not a reliable solution for serious clogs. When combined, baking soda and vinegar create a fizzing reaction that may loosen debris on the surface of the pipe, but it doesn’t have the strength to break through grease, hair, or solid blockages deep in your drain.

In some cases, using this mixture can even make things worse. If your drain is completely blocked, the reaction may push the clog further down, making it harder to remove. Additionally, repeated use of acidic substances like vinegar can degrade certain types of pipes over time.
