"Tony was very pleasant to work with. He accommodated my schedule, even with a big winter storm that had just rolled through. Tony and his team finished the project in about a day and a half and I couldn’t be more pleased! Not only was the job exactly what I needed/requested, but it was a very neat and clean job. His team respected my house and left the work area spotless. I will definitely call Tony if I ever need anything plumbing related."

"I was in desperate need of a plumber. I was doing a DIY remodel and had a strict deadline. Demo was done and I got to a point where I was not experienced or confident enough to do. Mike should up the next morning and layed new pipes for shower and hooked up new shower pan and drain within 3 or so hrs. I was thrilled! He saved me and I'm able to finish on time! Wife is happy. Thanks Mike"

"I hired Jason on friends recommendation to redo master bathroom. It was during covid. Incredible job! He was on time every day, immaculately clean, went extra to get things from store so I wouldn't have to, knowledgeable n professional. I then had him do a partial redo on half bath. Have used him for leaks, clogs, drippy toilet, installing grab bars. I highly recommend him. I trust him. He is efficient, clean, knowledgeable, respectful, professional. I would never use anyone else. When he commits, he is there and on time. You will never find anyone better! Carol B"

"Leio did an outstanding job with our plumbing work. He was professional, punctual, and took the time to explain everything before getting started. The quality of his work was excellent, and he made sure everything was completed correctly and left the area clean when he finished. It’s clear he takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about his customers. I highly recommend Leio to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy plumber!"

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

The best way to unclog a bathtub drain is to pour a pot of boiled water down the drain, being careful not to splash yourself. However, take precautions, as boiling water can damage PVC pipes and joints. Follow up with ½ cup of baking soda and ½ cup of vinegar. Cover the drain with a small sink plunger and let it sit for 15 minutes. Pour boiling water down the drain again and replace the drain stopper.

You’ll likely pay between $300 and $450 to unclog your toilet with Roto-Rooter. However, the price could change depending on if the clog has caused a lot of damage, which your plumbing pro will want to inspect during your service appointment. Keep in mind that you won’t get a quote from Roto-Rooter over the phone. They have to send a pro out for an in-person cost estimate. You can also attempt to snake your own clog for a lot less, and simple drain snakes cost no more than $50.

Preventing water accumulation involves regular inspections, maintaining effective drainage systems, ensuring proper roof maintenance, and taking preventive measures against heavy rainfall or floods.

Several signs can tip you off to a clogged dishwasher drain. At first, you may notice that it’s taking longer than usual for the dishwasher to drain, or you may hear gurgling sounds during the draining part of the cycle. You might also notice water backing up into your sink or excess food at the bottom of the dishwasher after a load. The most obvious sign, though, is seeing standing water at the bottom of your dishwasher after the cycle has finished.
