Charles B Review of Affordable Drain Service

Unclogging a kitchen sink drain seemed like a good `do-it-youself' job to me. Hours later after wrestling with two plumbers snakes and adding boiling water and chemical drain cleaners that failed to do the job, I gave up.
Affordable Drain' Service's tech spent 4.5 hours trying to unclog it. It turns out the drain is a nightmare of horizontal stretches with 90 degree bends perfect for trapping food debris. And it was all filled with dark, sticky sludge that would seal up after a snake passed through it. So, it is no wonder that my own attempts failed! The company owner showed up and using specialty equipment was able to remove many pounds of disgusting goo. Now the drain works fine.
The bill was more than the minimum charge by several fold. But the price was fair for the amount of work, and they got the job done. The owner recommended a simple plumbing modification to add a `clean-out` port and make future maintenance simpler. Our plumber made that change and our drain should be a lot easier to keep running freely. We will use this service the next time our drains need attention.
