"Damien made time for me on short notice. When he arrived I described the issue and he was quick to correctly diagnose the cause. He had to replace a heating coil in my electirc water heater. During the course of the repair he noted that the drain valve was not working properly. He replaced that as well. Before he left he drained and flushed the tank. All is working well. I'd recommend Damian for this type of service. Damian was delayed because of an earlier appointment where materials had not arrived on time. He worked later that normal working hours to make sure my problems were taken care of. I cetainly appreciated his efforts and that he kept me informed of his arrival time. He did not have to extend his day to the extent he did, but rather than re-schedule me, he completed my job as promised."

"Very friendly and kind and timely. I had a kitchen sink that would not drain and a faucet that kept dripping in my kitchen sink they were able to clear the drain so my sink would drain and on top of that they fix the dripping faucet. The best part is there was not a trace of any kind of work being done as they cleaned up behind themselves perfectly. I would highly recommend them"

"I had what turned out to be a clogged pipe going from the house to our septic tank at midnight. I hired another plumbing contractor to come and fix it overnight, as Rooter-Man's 24x7 operator didn't pass on the message. The first contractor started to drain the water from the entire system via a trickle into a 5 gallon bucket at $255/hour. After 2 hours, I sent him home and continued to drain the system for another 3-4 hours on my own, with the expectation that he would return in the morning to continue. I received a call early in the morning from Chris at Rooter-Man. I asked him about the approach that the first contractor had taken, and he suggested that draining the system wasn't necessary. He indicated that the proper approach under the circumstances was to first open the septic tank, to insure that the levels were proper, to prohibit backflow into the home, and pump it out if necessary (it was not). Once open, cleaning the drain by snaking from the outside, through the septic tank, would provide the solution without draining the system. After careful consideration, I called the first contractor back and asked him not to come, and called back Chris and had him complete the job. He was very conscientious, calling when he was on his way, to insure that I was expecting him. I walked him through everything and he was able to complete the job in roughly 1 hour, including cleaning up for the first contractor. He was courteous and friendly, clearly had a command of the issue and executed like an experienced professional. His price was less than what I had prepared for. The fact that I was unable to contact him overnight is my only criticism, and why my overall rating is 4.5, rather than 5. When I asked him this, he resolved to find and correct the issue with the answering service operator. He also indicated that when deciding who to contract with, for a problem such as mine, to try to use a "drain professional", rather than a plumber, as the approach taken may vary (as I found out). FWIW, I initially called Roto-Rooter, who offers 24x7 service, and they also did not call me back until the next morning, despite promises to the contrary. I would recommend Chris & Rooter-Man without any reservations."

"Commercial Restaurant clogged main sewer drain. Cody and his crew showed for a same day emergency sewer back-up within one hour to un-clog a stubborn clog using cutters and air jetter. Friendly professional service giving me frequent updates. They were careful to protect surrounding area and cleaned up area prior to departing. Best of all the price quoted was almost 1/2 of Roto-Rooter than could not come out for 2 days."

French Drains FAQs, answered by experts

Bleach is generally not recommended for your shower drains. Although diluted bleach can technically help clean your drain, it will not unclog your pipes. In fact, bleach can harm your plumbing system because it’s so powerful. The bleach can change the color of your sink and even corrode metal pipes and fittings.

Often, people reach for bleach because it's already in their house. But it's worth getting a plunger or a drain snake for the job instead. It'll be a lot less money to buy a new plunger than to pay a plumber to repair or replace damaged pipes.

Yes, continuing to flush a clogged toilet is not likely to break up the clog. Instead, it will continue to put pressure on the clog while filling the bowl with more water, which can potentially cause the toilet to overflow—leading to an even bigger mess. Rather than repeatedly flushing, use a toilet plunger or plumber’s snake to dislodge the clog.

If your drain doesn’t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.

Professional plumbers use many high-grade chemicals to unclog drains. Many use hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid, when it comes to extreme blockages. 

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