"Toilet resealed but shims were exposed and not very professional looking results, probably will leak in future. Light fixture was cheap, but service man complained and should've denied work, instead hung and it fell 2 hours after he left, breaking the fixture. Service man stated that they normally don't do estimates. He walked through house but gave no estimate, told him it was OK to call me back or email estimate. Emailed them 2 months ago and secretary told me that service man would call me, never did. Tried 3 times to get them to give estimate, she never stated about not giving estimates. won't use them again."

Additional DBA - Hathcock Plumbing & Electric Company Inc.

"Paid them a few years ago to put in a main drain line and during the main line replacement did they bring up an issue with the slope and distance. Fast forward to last 90 days. They have flushed the line twice, rooted it three times and have ran a camera once. Keeping track that’s 700 plus dollars. Fast forward to 14th which was the 2nd time they flushed the lines in less than 45 days. Tech tells me because of the road construction and settling the slope is no longer there, Come out on the 21st cause it’s backed up again and they ran a camera, I’m on the porch watching the city water guy is out there with him. He does his thing talks to the City guy and leaves, doesn’t say jack to me only conversation he had with me was where was a power source, the city guy tells me it’s holding water in a section of my yard, so my main line they installed has a belly in it keeping it from draining properly. So it’s not due to settling and road construction out by the road causing the slope to be off it’s due to sucky installation and now it has a belly in a section keeping it from working properly as the slope is good before and after it. And guess what now Roto Rooter will not return calls. And at no point offering a solution either. Got a solution today and it was I could put a pump in but because I had a bad attitude because of their workmanship and throwing money at a problem they won’t even touch it. At no point in the last 12 months zero recombinations were given to fix or correct the issue."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on clog severity, pipe condition, equipment required, and labor.

Ideally, you might find that you only need to clean the sewer line or remove a clog from the main line. That costs $200 to $300. However, “sewer main clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear, depending on what is causing the clog, distance from accessible cleanouts to the clog, and whether there is occupied space below the clogged line (apartment buildings, condos, etc.),” says Botelho.

It's advisable to have your sewer line inspected every three to five years to ensure its proper functioning and detect any potential issues early on. However, the frequency of inspections can vary based on factors such as the age of your sewer system, the type of pipes used, and your property's location. If you notice any warning signs like slow drains, foul odors, or sewage backups, it's essential to schedule an inspection promptly, regardless of the regular maintenance schedule. 

Professional tools include drain snakes, hydro jets, cameras for line inspection, and enzymatic or chemical cleaners for dissolution.

If you’re not using a septic system, problems with your home’s plumbing won’t cause this—it’s a city problem. A large blockage in the municipal sewage lines may cause those lines to back up into your home. This is extremely unpleasant and can be a serious health risk due to bacteria and other contaminants. If this occurs, call a pro (or your city) immediately.
