July 2026
The homeowner reported that the unit was leaking.
The drain line was clogged. Travis pulled the clog out of the drain, and the pipe was then flowing with water from the pan. He showed the homeowner the pipe that had been pulled, and a follow-up check was planned for the next day to make sure everything was still running fine.
After the clog was pulled, the pipe was flowing with water from the pan and the leak issue was resolved.
Jeorell
May 2026
The AC was leaking water, and the drain line was clogged and not draining properly. Another company had come out and was not able to unclog the drain line.
The drain line was full of water in the attic, and it exits in the crawl space. The homeowner said the deck was built in about 2022 and the drain line used to exit under it, but that exit is now covered by a board. Jeorell headed to the attic, followed the drain line to its exit point in the crawl space, and took pictures and videos of both areas. He recommended relocating the drain line and running it to a different exit point, and an estimate for the new line was to be attached.

Kitchen drains clog from grease, food particles, and soap buildup. Bathroom drains collect hair, soap scum, and toothpaste. Main lines can be blocked by tree roots, flushed items that shouldn't be flushed, or pipe deterioration. Slow drains often indicate buildup that will eventually cause a complete blockage. Addressing it early is easier and cheaper.
During the holidays, avoid putting turkey grease, potato peels, or fibrous foods down the garbage disposal. Run cold water for 30 seconds after using the disposal. In bathrooms with extra guests, use drain covers to catch hair. Never flush anything but toilet paper, not even 'flushable' wipes. Consider scheduling a preventive drain cleaning before hosting large gatherings.
