Clogged bathroom pedestal sink
My pedestal sink in the main bathroom was clogged. I used baking soda and vinegar to unclog it many times and it worked until it stopped working. In late January 2011, a DanMac plumber was doing other work in my house paid through my insurer. I contracted with him to look at my sink. It needed to be snaked and the pop-up sink drain and p-trap needed to be replaced. The pipes coming into the pedestal sink are in a tight location, but the DanMac plumber did a fine job with skill and patience. I was very happy at the time except that a few months later I was experiencing sink clogging again. I called DanMac and they said that I would be charged again for someone to come out. The problem was that I couldn't remove the pop-up in the sink drain like I could with my old one to remove any debris. The DanMac plumber installed a cheaper model pop-up that was fused. I would have gone for a more expensive one that could have been removed but I wasn't offered the choice nor did I know to ask. So I had to spend more money to fix this again but I used another plumber. So I wasn't completely happy with DanMac.
