Clogged Kitchen Sink?

admin — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 03:01:07 +0000

Just the main sewer line, kitchen sinks also get clogged, and what better price to pay to get your sewer or sink unclogged then $49.95. Our mechanics are experienced and have been dispatched to jobs that mechanics from other sewer and drain companies were not able to unclog. This sink had been clogged for a while and the customer had been using chemicals until the kitchen sink totally stopped up. He got a number for a sewer company from the yellow pages and called them, but they wanted $125 minimum to unclog a kitchen sink.
The customer’s son found our website and informed his father about our low price. The customer called us and confirmed the price right over the phone and when the mechanic completed the job and gave the customer a receipt with a total of $49.95, he was amazed. The mechanic even cleaned up after completing the job.
We are used to the amazement customers show us , but it makes us happy because we know we saved our customers money.

As the expressions of the audience showed, they never in a million years would have though that Susan Boyle would sing like that. Simply amazing.

Unclog double sinks!

admin — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 20:30:44 +0000

Double sinks are not that common but every once in a while we do see them. The pipes under double sinks are connected slightly different than that of a single sink. The thing to keep in mind is, even if you have double sinks or a single sink, the pipes will be connected to a single stackline. Connecting the pipes to a single stackline is way more convenient and cost effective than having multiple stacklines. If you look at the bottom of your double sinks you will clearly see that the traps under both sides of the double sink somehow are connected. If you cannot visually see the pipes connecting, then they more than likely connect behind the wall.
Now, if only one of the sinks is clogged and the other one is running fine, then you can successfully unclog it with a plunger. If the plunger does not work, it means you have an object in the pipe. To remove the object, simply take apart the pipes under the side that is clogged, and clear the pipe. We usually find spoons, rice, bones or grease buildup. Once you clear the pipes, both sides of the double sink should work.
Now, If both sides of the double sink are running slow or are clogged, you can still try the plunger. But, you have to make sure you plug one of the sinks and plunge the other side. You have to plug one of the sinks because plunging one side without plugging the other side would simply cause the water to be pushed up on the unplugged side. If the plunger does not work, you can try other home remedies we have listed in other posts. If all that does not work, you have to get a snake and unclog the sink.
Snaking a double sink is not too different than snaking a single sink. Just be careful taking the pipes apart. It is sometimes difficult to put the pipes together under a double sink. If you have any issues related to your sewer and drain needs, you can always contact us.
Thank you

Ring fell in the sink!

Dropped your ring in the sink?

Don’t worry. If you ever run into a problem where you drop your ring into your sink, you can easily retreive your ring. Over the years, our mechanics have retrieved many rings for our customers. Some were presents, some were wedding rings, some were engagement rings. It is pretty obvious, anyone would be upset if they dropped their ring in the sink. But, we love to see the smile coming back on our customers faces when we successfully retrieve their ring for them.
If you ever run into a similar situation, where your ring falls or slips down the sink drain, first thing you must do is to stop running the sink water. If you are already not running it, then make sure no one runs the water till you get your ring back. It would be a good idea to not run any water in the house, just in case your ring makes it to the sewer trap and is washed away from there. Majority of the times, that is more than 98% of the time, the ring does not make it past the sink trap. It simple sits at the bottom of the trap. If you have a PVC trap under your sink, simply unscrew the trap and flip it, your ring should come out smoothly.
If you have a metal trap, then more than likely, you will have a plug at the bottom of the trap. Grab a channel lock or wrench and open up the plug. Some water will come out, so keep a pot underneath the trap. Your ring should come out with the water, but in case it does not, run the water in the sink while the plug is open. This should push the ring out if it is sitting on the side of a trap. You can also put some gloves on and feel the inside of the trap to make sure the ring is not in there.

If the above two tricks don’t work, head over to your main sewer trap and make sure the ring is not there. If none of the above work, call a plumber or a sewer and drain mechanic to try to retrieve the ring from your stack line.

Hopefully, no one has to go through such trouble. Good Luck

Sink pipe leaking

What to do with leaking sink pipes?

Old and leaking pipes under a sink are not too much of an headache until they get clogged. To change a pipe under your sink, all you have to do is open the pipes with a channel lock or a wrench and take the old pipes to a hardware store and ask them to give you exact same size pipe. PVC pipes are reliable and cheap and more than likely the hardware store owner will also recommend PVC pipe.
If you don’t want to go through the hassle of removing the pipe, the next best thing is to patch up the pipe. There are a number of different products available that can help you patch up a leaking pipe. We have a list of items that we carry with us, in case we have to do a quick patch. Make sure to follow the safety guidelines on each product and only use the recommended amount.

Plumbers Putty: This is the most reliable item. You can use it as a patch on your sink pipe and other drains. It will stop your leak pretty quickly. There are a number of different manufacturers and almost all of them are good.
Teflon Tape: This is used extensively on plugs that get old and loose their threads and start leaking.
Repair Tape: This kind of tape creates a water and air tight seal, thus preventing leaks.

There are number of other tools available but these three help us the most to patch minor leaks. Give them a try if you are tired of hearing that dripping noise under your sink. If you have any plumbing repair issue please call your local licensed plumber. $49.95 Any Sewer or Drain can recommend local plumbing companies in Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx, Nassau and Suffolk. If you have any plumbing need and need a recommendation please give us a call.

Thank You

What is flushing the line?

admin — Sun, 27 May 2007 06:55:10 +0000

Every now and then our customers ask us about the “lingo” the sewer and drain technicians use. One of the word that is used alot is “flushing” the line. What does it mean? Why does the line need to be flushed?

Flushing the line is simply to use the power of water to “flush” away the stoppage. Now keep in mind this “flushing” will not work for roots at all. If the stoppage is grease or muck, the regular machines will have trouble unclogging the line. Why? We’ll, thats because the blade on the sewer machine spins right through the stoppage and the stoppage does not even move. The situation can get worse if the sewer pipe is back pitched.
Small flush bags are available from different places and can help in unclogging a line clogged with grease or muck. Here is a link which will show you more about flush bags.

You might not even have to call anyone to unclog your drain, we wish you all the luck. If you do need any directions about how to use the flush bag or if you want to know anything else about sewer and drain cleaning, please feel free to contact us via email at anysewer@pay4995.com

Are chemicals good for my drainage?

admin — Fri, 11 May 2007 01:38:39 +0000

We do hundreds of jobs everyday and on the daily basis our customers ask us if chemicals are good to unclog sewers and drains. We’ll the answer is they may or may not be, depends on how and where you use the chemicals. If your drain is totally blocked, there is a very slim chance that any chemical would work on it. Why do we claim that?
We’ll we are not claiming that, we have seen it more than enough times to determine that chemicals do not really work in a mild to severe blockage. They might work on a slow drainage but that too is not really guaranteed. A lot of times customers combine a number of chemicals to get better results, that is a big NO NO. Combining two chemicals will create a third chemical which might even be more harmful.
Chemicals are also harmful for the pipes ( except pvc in many cases). Smaller metal pipes under the bathtub, vanity sink and kitchen sink can even start leaking due to heavy usage of chemicals. Sewer pipes are mostly clay for the most part and are bigger and stronger than the rest of the plumbing in the house and are also more resistant to chemicals.
Other than the drains, the chemicals are also harmful for our skin, and can cause severe burns if not used properly.
Our advice to you is to use the chemicals only if you have no other choice. You can always call $49.95 Any Sewer or Drain for all your sewer and drain needs, you can even contact us via email if you have any questions.
