Finding A Plumber That Works 24 Hours A Day In Chicago

Does Your Plumber Keep Banker's Hours? Not Us!

It's 3 in the morning and you are rudely awoken to a geyser of water bursting from the wall. You think you're having a nightmare until you realize you're awake and you just had a pipe burst. You are in the midst of an emergency. Sounds melodramatic, but think about what kind of damage can be done if we were only available from nine to five.

If you had to wait until 9 am for us to arrive, your home would be practically submerged by the time we got there. That's why we offer 24 hour emergency service to both residential and commercial customers. Plumbing problems aren't just a daytime thing. We have you covered. While other Plumbers at other companies may punch out and close up shop, we'll be standing by waiting for your call.

The Dangers Of Pouring Drano Down The Toilet Bowl

Drano down the toilet bowl??? No!!!!!!!

Most Plumbers preach against the use of Drano and other harmful chemicals that claim to unclog anything. In some cases, it can be very effective. But to what extent?

In the case of toilets, any chemical you put in the toilet is going to stay there for some time, since the bowl fills with water and is slow to drain without flushing, the chemicals can settle onto the porcelain. Plumbers will tell you this is a bad thing because the chemicals in Liquid Plumr and Drano can heat up while standing in the bowl. This can result in a few expensive scenarios. The harsh chemicals could possibly crack the bowl, meaning you will have to replace the entire commode. It is even possible for the concoction to explode, leading to replacement of fixtures, furniture, and perhaps walls in your bathroom. Both are much more expensive than calling a us to manually repair the clog.

If you have non-galvanized pipes from yesteryear, Drano will eat through them like a hungry shark. Your best bet when facing a clog is a plunger. Yep. Simple, but effective. If that doesn't work? Call Us! We will quickly identify the culprit and remove it while preserving your pipes and porcelain.
