After years of looking for a good plumbing company, we have finally found our plumbers. Don was so professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. We had a vanity sink in our basement that had a slow leak that we didn’t notice until way too late. Don provided us good ideas to fix the leak in short term. Then came out a week later to install the brand new vanity and all new fixtures and piping. The result is beautiful and I am confident it was done right. We will definitely use Dalmatian Plumbing in the future.

From the moment he arrived, he was personable and even shared some laughs, making the whole experience enjoyable. He went above and beyond by providing me with excellent advice on selecting a more durable sink for my upcoming home lease, which I truly appreciated. The installation of the new sink and faucet was flawless – the sink sealant was applied so neatly, which shows real attention to detail. What truly impressed me was how he tidied up the faucet supply lines and even painted both the new drain and my existing garbage disposal drain to perfectly match in color. It's those little touches that make a huge difference! Donald is not only highly skilled but also genuinely funny and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely call him again for any future plumbing needs. Highly recommend!"

It’s 5 star. The job was to replace the water heater and expansion tank that I have provided.

It’s 5 star. The job was to replace the water heater and expansion tank that I have provided. The team has reviewed the work to be done and provided quote that includes the labor and material for installation. The expectation was the job will be done as per new codes. The job was perfectly executed. The team also helped to pick the water heater from Lowe’s at no extra cost. Will definitely recommend this service.

After several "24/7" services did not return calls, Simon called and sent the best person imaginable. Jason responded in a timely manner and quickly diagnosed the problem. He was professional and efficient, but most importantly, very personable (he loved our labs!). He kept in touch to let us know the status of ordering a new, correct pump. Then, unlike most service professionals, managed expectations, showing up not only a day early, but 30 minutes ahead of schedule. He kept us informed every step of the way of the installation. He left everything cleaner than he found it. Where on earth do you find such a great professional? Call Dalmatian and ask for Jason, if you want a consummate professional and a great guy to boot!

We were hosting the grand opening of our new 13,000-square-foot center on a Saturday when—of course—the toilet clogged. We thought we had time to grab supplies and handle it ourselves, but by the time we got back… the smell had taken over the entire building. There was no fighting that stench alone, so we turned to Thumbtack and found Dalmatian Plumbing. Within no time, Jim showed up, quickly assessed the situation, and—before I could retreat to my office in embarrassment—he had already resolved the issue. Not only did he unclog the toilet, but he also cleaned it for us. The level of professionalism, speed, and care was beyond what we expected. Highly recommend Dalmatian Plumbing—especially if you're in a pinch and need fast, reliable, and courteous service. We’ll definitely be calling them again!

We had a great experience working with Christian, our plumber. From the moment he arrived, his calm and easygoing approach made us feel at ease. He quickly identified the root of the issue and handled it with professionalism and care. What really stood out was his patience—he took his time to make sure everything was done right, not rushing through any part of the job. Christian is not only skilled at what he does, but he also values service and takes the time to explain things clearly. We learned a lot just from talking with him, and it’s rare to find someone so open and generous with their knowledge. He’s genuine, respectful, and someone I’d trust to call again in the future. Highly recommended!

Tim was fantastic. Came for a simple toilet issue but helped correct a larger issue that could be my overall problem. I needed a new pressure reducing valve. My house was getting 120psi and should never be over 60lbs psi. Excellent work, professional and very nice guy. I’d refer Tim and... Tim was fantastic.

Signs of a Clogged Drain

A clogged drain can be a frustrating and disruptive problem, but with the right help, it doesn't have to be. At Dalmatian Plumbing, we specialize in fast and effective drain cleaning services to keep your pipes flowing smoothly.

Slow Draining

If you notice water taking longer than usual to drain from sinks, bathtubs, or showers, this is a common sign of a partial blockage. Over time, hair, soap scum, grease, or other debris can accumulate inside your pipes, gradually slowing down the drainage process.

Foul Odors

When waste or food particles get stuck in your drain, they begin to decompose, leading to unpleasant smells coming from your sink, shower, or bathroom drains. Foul odors are a clear indicator that something is blocking the flow of water and air in your pipes. If left untreated, the smell can worsen and even affect the air quality in your home.

Gurgling Noises

If you hear gurgling sounds coming from your drains or pipes when water is flowing, this often indicates that air is trapped behind a blockage. As water passes through, it displaces air, causing the gurgling noise. This is a warning sign that a clog is forming, and addressing it early can prevent a full blockage from occurring.

Standing Water

Water pooling in your sink, bathtub, or shower is a sign of a serious blockage in the drain. When water doesn't drain at all or only very slowly, the clog is usually more severe, and professional drain cleaning may be needed to remove it. Standing water can also lead to additional issues like mold growth and water damage if not resolved promptly.

Frequent Clogs

If you've experienced repeated clogs in the same drain, it's likely that there's a deeper issue within your plumbing system. Recurring blockages may indicate that there is buildup farther down the line or even a problem with your main sewer line. Regular, frequent clogs require professional attention to prevent more significant plumbing issues.

How can preventative maintenance keep your drains clear?

Regular drain cleaning helps to remove buildup before it turns into a clog, preventing blockages that can lead to costly repairs, backups, or even water damage. By scheduling routine cleanings, you can avoid common problems caused by grease, soap scum, hair, and other debris that slowly accumulate over time. In addition to professional cleaning, small steps like using drain screens, avoiding pouring grease down the sink, and regularly flushing drains with hot water can reduce the likelihood of clogs. Consistent maintenance ensures that your drains continue to flow freely, extending the life of your plumbing system and helping you avoid expensive plumbing emergencies.

What are the common causes of a clogged drain?

Clogged drains are often caused by the gradual buildup of common household debris over time. In kitchen drains, grease, food particles, and soap residue can accumulate, creating a blockage that restricts water flow. In bathrooms, hair, soap scum, and toothpaste frequently combine to form clogs in sinks, showers, and tubs. Foreign objects, such as small toys or hygiene products, can accidentally be flushed down toilets, leading to significant blockages in the plumbing system. Even outdoor drains are susceptible to clogs, where leaves, dirt, and other debris can cause issues in gutter systems or underground pipes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q How often should I have my drains cleaned?

The frequency of drain cleaning depends on several factors, including the age of your plumbing system, the number of occupants in your property, and your usage patterns. As a general guideline, it is recommended to have your drains professionally cleaned at least once every 1-2 years. However, if you notice slow drainage, foul odors, or recurring clogs, it is advisable to seek drain cleaning services promptly.

Q Can I clean my drains myself using store-bought products?

While store-bought drain cleaning products may provide temporary relief for minor clogs, they often contain harsh chemicals that can damage your pipes over time. Additionally, they may not effectively remove stubborn blockages or address underlying issues within your plumbing system. It is best to rely on professional drain cleaning services from Dalmatian Plumbing to ensure thorough and safe cleaning.

Q How long does a drain cleaning service typically take?

The duration of a drain cleaning service varies depending on the complexity of the issue and the extent of the clog or blockage. Generally, a routine drain cleaning can be completed within a couple of hours. However, more severe cases may require additional time. Our experienced technicians will provide an estimated timeframe during the initial assessment.

Q What should I do if I have a recurring drain clog?

If you experience recurring drain clogs, it is essential to address the underlying issue rather than relying on temporary fixes. Contact Dalmatian Plumbing, and our experts will thoroughly inspect your plumbing system to identify the root cause of the problem. We will then provide you with effective solutions to prevent further clogs and ensure long-term functionality.
