"My experience was excellent. I had a kitchen sink that was almost fully clogged that needed rodding to clear it out; this drain needed the same service 2 years ago. Response time was awesome and the workers put down floor protection and wore proper face masks to keep us all safe; I experienced them as capable, friendly, and respectful. Price ($150) was less than 2 other quotes. Drain runs beautifully and they left my home as clean as before they arrived."

"My situation was particularly difficult, with my drain clean out being in my crawlspace in a cramped spot. Bob really impressed me with his ingenuity, and more importantly his confidence in how to best do the job. Bob and Kevin got my main sewer line cleared and everything cleaned up in 2 hours. I highly recommend R.A. Mechanical."

"We have lived in our house for 10 years. Right after we moved in there was water in the crawlspace and we hired Permaseal to do drain tile. We've had no water issues for 10 years. This year we finally decided to do something about the settling in the addition and again hired Permaseal to install piers around the foundation (interior and exterior). Hugo M. and his team did an outstanding job, working through some very cold days, installing everything as planned and at each moment stopping to show us the work and the progress. The work required going through the drain tile on the interior pier locations and the team reinstalled the drain tile system before pouring the final concrete. The work was really well done and everything was left clean and picked up, which is remarkable considering the scope of the work."

"Had a main sewer line backup and called J. Blanton. The tech showed up on time, explained everything upfront, and cleared the clog quickly. He even did a camera inspection afterward so I could see the condition of the pipe myself. No upsells, no surprises, just solid, professional work. Drains have been running perfectly since. Highly recommend!"

Drain Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Flushing the toilet only to realize it’s clogged can cause anxiety. To avoid a clogged toilet, use less toilet paper. If you notice that the toilet is flushing and refilling slower than usual, you can use a plunger to clear clogs in the S-trap. If that doesn’t work, call a plumber to check your system and possibly clear the drain lines.

The cost to repair a main sewer line clog is about $3,110 on average. The average cost range is  $1,310 to $4,950, but it can go as low as $215 and as high as $9,300 or more. The cost factors for this repair include the severity of the clog, pipe accessibility, video inspection, removal method, permits, pipe material, labor rates in your area, and time of year. Repairs made from outside during the winter can be more difficult due to the frozen ground or during the spring if the ground is saturated from a lot of rain and snow melt.

It is okay to use a drain auger on a toilet, just make sure you are using the correct tip size. The auger is a plumbing snake with a protective sleeve to protect the porcelain toilet bowl from getting scratched. Using too large of an auger can cause the snake to loop back and damage the inside of the drain and plumbing.

While technically possible, it is unlikely that a clogged toilet will fix itself. Clogs caused by water-soluble materials like toilet paper or human waste may eventually break down in the water, allowing flow to resume. However, this can take time, and any clogs from solid objects require manual removal. In most scenarios, especially if you don't have another bathroom, it is best to fix the clog yourself or call a plumber.

Yes, flushing a clogged toilet can make it overflow. While flushing the toilet may push enough pressure through the system to dislodge the clog, this is unlikely. Your best bet is to use a plunger and hope the suction can break up whatever is blocking the pipe. If this doesn’t work, use a plumbing auger or call a pro to help.
