ABOUT US

Built From Frustration. Designed for Simplicity.

 

I’m a hands-on DIY plumber. Like a lot of folks who take pride in fixing things ourselves, I’ve tackled just about every repair you can imagine. But nothing tested my patience more than one particular job: trying to remove water from a vertical copper pipe so I could solder it properly.

I tried everything — tilting old pipes, repurposing spray bottles, even sucking water out manually. It was messy, inefficient, and honestly a bit ridiculous. I knew there had to be a better way.

So I reached out to a few experienced professional plumbers. Together, we brainstormed, tested, refined — and finally, we created the Plumbers Snake.

A compact, efficient tool that clears vertical pipes in seconds — without the mess, the hassle, or the guesswork.

Today, the Plumbers Snake is helping DIYers and professionals alike save time, avoid frustration, and get the job done right the first time.
