"I had a $60 special plumber come out and no luck on unclogging so I thought I'd call a company that specializes in Drain cleaning and glad I did. Paul Skibba analyzed the situation and suggested another snaking before going to expensive hydro jetting. After setting up and snaking 2 times he unplugged the clog. Cost was $149 but well worth it. Paul is a real professional."

"Alan came out same day within couple of hours to clear a clogged bathtub drain. Worked on it for some time, went above and beyond to get it drained but no luck' House is 50 + years old with cast iron pipes so I was not surprised when he said ones under the tub needed to be replaced. Had been giving us trouble for several years and had been getting worse. He wrote a proposal and said he could do the next day as it was too late to start that day. James the owner showed up early next morning and went over what needed to be done. Gave a fair price and Alan showed up hr or so later and got started. Worked all day bless his heart. Got drain running smoothly. It's been about 2 weeks and all still going great. Have had a number of plumbing jobs done in the past by different companies but James Degennaro was by far the best. Both he and Alan were great and professional and did great work and clean up. .Would absolutely hire again and recommend . So glad I found them. Will need more pipes replaced in future so will be keeping them in the phone book. Patricia C. in Garden Grove, Ca."

"Ryan was perfectly on-time and was a plumbing scholar and a gentleman. We had a simple drain replacement under a new sink. Going to Western saved me at least another day of trying to figure out proper parts and doing the install myself, and it also saved my wife's ears from hearing my salty language."

"Personable, easy to work with and good listeners. I was pleased with the installation of the tankless water heater. It was professionally done, appearance of piping was good and upon completion they left the work site clean. Advised on other plumbing projects that could be beneficial to me and I appreciated the fact that Caesar corrected a wrong installation under the sink. I definitely and highly recommend Cal-Tech to friends and anyone who needs any sort of plumbing projects done. LNT :)"

"I had leaky water heater, Drain City came out and have me a free consultation. Tony was very polite and professional while explaining various detail to the project where even I could understand it. He explain about quality parts that I would need, vents and piping to code, etc up front instead of giving me a quote and adding on later. Tony's team delivered, installed and haul away water heater and left my home clean. I definitely would recommend them. Drain City Plumbing is now my go to for future needs."

"Jose (with JRC Plumbing) did an excellent job replacing my kitchen faucet. He quickly responded to my request and was on time to the job site. He was clean and effecient (everything you hope for in a plumber inside your home)! His attention to the details (making sure the faucet was centered and no smudges) was definately appreciated. I highly recommend Jose for your next job!"

"The plumber spent a lot of time just trying to figure out the source of the hidden leak. He had a lot of patience. The quality of work was good as was the price. I would definitely hire them again."

FAQs for drain cleaning projects in Fullerton, CA

On average, a plumber will take 30 minutes to two hours to clear a clogged drain. If the clog is located close to the drain or an access point and isn’t severe, the project will take about half an hour. If the clog is deep within your plumbing system or is a severe blockage, it can take two or more hours to remove the clog. For this reason, main line clogs tend to take longer, usually between two and three hours.

It’s possible to snake minor drain clogs yourself, provided they sit within a foot or two of the drain itself, but it’s usually best to hire a professional plumber regardless. Even experienced DIYers have a high chance of accidentally pushing the clog further into the drain using a drain snake or another tool, so hiring a plumber is the ideal course of action. A professional plumber can use camera equipment to locate and identify the clog, and remove the entire blockage to fix your issue permanently.

In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don’t technically need a license, as they aren’t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They’ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your plumber’s professional licenses before hiring.

Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.

The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
