"We had a clogged drain in a second bathroom that overflowed into the tub. Even though it happened on Sunday night, Bobby Owen was at our home within an hour. The tools in his work van were well organized for easy access, and he arrived fully equipped to fix any problem without having to make a separate trip. Before clearing the drain, he used a snake with a camera attached to identify the exact location of the clog in the pipe. Bobby showed us what the camera had found (before and after) and exactly where the problem was in relation to a connecting drain in the master bathroom. We appreciated the fact that he showed us the clog on camera, explained what we needed to watch for in the future, and then cleared it all the way through to the master. Bobby worked quickly but thoroughly to fix the problem to our satisfaction (which the camera confirmed). He was friendly, well experienced, his price was fair. I have recommended Bobbie Owen to friends and neighbors."

"I originally called John Wright Construction and Remodeling to do a major remodel of my laundry room. John also owns Advanced Plumbing Services, so I am splitting this review between the two companies, since they were both onsite. As far as the plumbing work, they relocated all of the water, drain and vent lines to new location in laundry room. While they were here I also had them install a new dishwasher. All work went very well with no issues at all."

The technician was on time, very polite, and very concerned with cleaning up any mess that he had to make. He was quick and pleasant. He replaced my old plastic drain with a better quality metal one and it works great!


The only problem I had with this company was that they took too long to answer my call and set up an appointment. They said they were on a huge busy job at the time. All in all, I would use them again.

"I tried contacting another business before Rescue Plumbing, but Went with Rescue Plumbing because of the prompt customer service and scheduling. While the other business said they might have someone in the area and would add me to the schedule, Rescue Plumbing was able to give me a specific date and time that they would be here to repair my leaking bathtub faucet. They called ahead and showed up as promised. The repair required a new fixture installation and was accomplished by a quick, efficient and polite technician. He gave me the estimate before beginning work and cleaned up afterwards. I wish they didn’t have a charge associated with using a credit card, but I would certainly use their services again in the future."

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Yes, chemical drain cleaners contain sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid, both of which are not only dangerous to your health but also extremely caustic. Drain cleaners will corrode your pipes and could lead to destroyed drain lines, especially if the chemicals interact with the piping for long periods. Unfortunately, this extended interaction is likely if you’re dealing with a clog, as the drain cleaner will have just as much trouble as water does moving through your plumbing system.

In the majority of cases, homeowners insurance will not cover a main sewer line root clog. The reason is that most insurance companies consider tree root damage to sewer lines as common wear and tear, which is also preventable. However, you may be able to buy optional add-on coverage, such as "service line coverage" or "sewer line endorsements," that would protect against root damage to your sewer line.

In some cases, operating a snake can damage your drain and pipes. This depends on the overall condition of your pipes and how gently you operate the auger. For instance, older galvanized pipes covered in zinc are susceptible to scratches when using a drain snake. Additionally, it’s common for newbies to apply too much force when extending the snake, leading to scratches and related damage. You can also crack the porcelain with an electric auger if you’re snaking a toilet drain. If you’re using a manual snake or auger, the risk is minimal.

If your washing machine drain is clogged, that isn’t a good sign. Unlike toilet drains or kitchen sink drains, there isn’t matter that is easily broken up with a plumbing snake, and more care is required. If you’re in an old house or have mineral-rich water, there could be a buildup inside the pipe. Either way, if the blockage isn’t obvious and doesn’t dislodge with a snake, you need to call a pro—otherwise, you risk damaging integral plumbing.

There are several common signs that your main sewer line may be clogged. Key indicators include multiple fixtures in your home draining slowly, gurgling sounds coming from drains or toilets, and water backing up into showers, sinks, or toilets. You might also notice water backing up from the plumbing system's drain cleanout, water in your basement drain, or unexplained wet patches on your lawn. Foul odors, such as the smell of raw sewage or rotten eggs, are another common symptom. The most reliable way to confirm a main sewer line clog is to hire a professional plumber to perform a camera inspection.
