If my drain is clogged, should I use a chemical drain cleaner before I call a plumber?
There are several reasons we do not recommend this course of action; most drain chemicals are very toxic in nature and not a good thing to keep around the home if you have children or pets. If they do make it down the drain, the chemicals are contributing to global pollution. In addition, over time these chemicals may deteriorate your pipes from the inside out. When this happens, the drain line(s) will have to be replaced and creates a huge expense.
Do not confuse toxic drain cleaners with the various drain maintenance products that are on the market. These products contain ‘friendly” bacteria and enzymes. They work great to keep any drain sludge and grease from building up in the pipes.

- You fix refrigerators, right? I have this GE refrigerator that's about 10 years old. It's a side-by-side refrigerator. It was working fine. Then we had to do some work with the power coming into the house, and we needed to shut the power off several times and turn it back on again. After it went through that, it won't work anymore. I thought it would be something simple like a circuit breaker or a fuse, but evidently, it wasn't. There isn't any power in the control panel; there's the only power in the light bulbs inside the fridge. Somebody told me it could be the control panel or circuit board at the back. Are you familiar with that? What do you charge for a service call? Do you buy authorized parts for repairs? How do you get them?
