"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."

"Our 50 year old septic system was nearly done in December 2018. Unfortunately, I didn't look on Home Advisor, I googled companies in my area, big mistake. I had several out from December to April, each tearing up the yard and promising that their fix would work. So much money wasted. I found Zeiter's when I expanded my search. Thank goodness! Jim came out in May for a site inspection. The only fix for that old system was to get a new one. David worked on very detailed plans which the health dept approved in a day. It took a lot of planning but in August, they installed the new system, what a hard-working crew. Since my first phone call to their company, to the day of the job completion, they were extremely knowledgeable, professional and very easy to work with. Always answered their phone, text messages, emails and ALL my questions--and I had a lot!!! They did a great job:)"

"Excellent service.  Oscar and his crew go far and above what is necessary to fix or replace plumbing.  They are very conscientious, courteous and respectful.  They are also very considerate of your property, taking measures to insure that floors are kept clean and all debris is removed when they leave.  I will hire Rardin Plumbing and Heating again, and I highly recommend them.

Sewer Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

Most blockages can be cleared in 1-3 hours, but severe issues may take longer.

If you want to avoid using a snake to unclog a drain, or if you don’t have one, try vinegar and baking soda. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of white vinegar. Wait for 15 minutes, and then run hot water (but not boiling water) down the drain to see if the clog is clear. Repeat multiple times as needed.

Costs vary by severity and access requirements. Typical pricing ranges from $100 to $350, increasing with complexity or for emergency services.

Simple blockages can be cleared using household plungers or manual snakes, provided no severe plumbing issues exist.
