Drains are one of those things that you use multiple times a day but rarely give any thought to their importance – until a problem arises.

Unfortunately, many home and business owners put off having their drains cleaned for far too long. The result of ignoring common warning signals of a clogged drain is often extensive damage, ranging from overflows to burst pipes. You can avoid such disasters by calling our professional plumbers as soon as you notice there’s a problem with your drain.
Common signs that your drains need to be cleaned include:
Your drains are draining more slowly than usual.
There are foul odors emitting from one or more drains.
Water backs up in your sink, shower, or bathtub.
Your toilet is bubbling.
Strange gurgling occurs when water is draining.
Why You Should Avoid Using Drain Cleaners
When you notice an issue with your drain, you might be tempted to run to the nearest convenient store to buy some liquid drain cleaner. Although these products are advertised as being the easiest and most cost-effective way to eliminate drain clogs, they often can’t get the job done. In addition, they can do a lot of harm rather than help.
4 reasons to prefer our professional plumbers over store-bought cleaners are:
Liquid drain cleaners offer only a temporary solution, allowing parts of the blockage to remain in your pipes.
Store-bought chemicals can damage your plumbing system, leading to expensive repairs and premature pipe replacement.
These chemicals are highly toxic, creating hazardous conditions within your home or business.
Liquid residue leftover in empty bottles ends up in landfills, which can lead to many environmental problems such as contaminated drinking water.
How Often Should I Clean My Drains?
Even if you are not experiencing any signs of a drain clog, it is a good practice to have your drains cleaned annually. Preventative drain cleaning will help you prevent blockages from forming in your pipes and avoid emergency situations. Regular cleaning of your pipes can also increase the lifespan of your plumbing system.
If it’s been more than a year since your drains were cleaned out, now is the perfect time to schedule professional drain cleaning with Amy Home Services. We’ll provide the services you need to keep your drains in good shape for as long as possible.

"He explained what needed to be fixed and why."
Amy Plumbing responded to my inquiry immediately. They scheduled same day service for my plumbing issue. Once Brad arrived, he explained what needed to be fixed and why. He broke down the cost of what needed to be repaired and explained what he was doing throughout the process. Brad was professional, courteous and respectful of my home. I was impressed with the entire experience and would recommend them.

"Little things matter and will make me a customer for life."
The Plumber came, gave me an estimate which was very reasonable for the kitchen faucet installation, and installed the faucet in a professional manner. I would use Amy Plumbing again for any installation or repair. He was very meticulous and made sure everything was returned under the sink. Very impressed that he took the time to make sure everything went back where it belonged in addition to the great job on the faucet! Little things matter and will make me a customer for life.

"This past week was kind of a doozie, but all three employees that came through to deal with it were awesome!"
We've used Amy for two fairly major plumbing jobs over the past few years. This past week was kind of a doozie, but all three employees that came through to deal with it were awesome! They tried so hard to fix it with the least amount of damage to our walls, even going out and buying a tool to try to make it work. All three were polite, courteous and professional. We will definitely be coming back for future home needs. Thank you!!!
