Q: How does Roto-Rooter bill you?

• <div><p>Roto-Rooter does not charge by the hour, so the quote you get after your in-person consultation should cover the whole project. This includes the time it takes a technician to get to your house and the time it takes to complete the job. For context, a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/plumber-cost.htm">plumber will charge</a> anywhere from $45 to $200 per hour, but you may also pay a service fee or flat fee. </p></div>

Q: How often should a septic tank be serviced?

• <div><p>Septic systems typically require servicing every 3-5 years, but frequency varies according to household size and tank capacity.</p></div>

Q: Are there alternative solutions for clearing a clog?

• <div><p>There are several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-non-chemical-solutions-clearing-clog.htm">homemade solutions for clearing a clogged sink</a> that don&rsquo;t involve pouring harsh chemicals down your drain. Start by pouring hot (but not boiling) water down the drain. This can help dissolve and flush away grease and gunk. A splash of dish soap down the drain can also cut through fat and make it easier to clear the drain. For a more stubborn blockage, grab a plunger and give it a few firm pumps to dislodge the clog.</p></div>

Q: How do you break down fat in a septic tank?

• <div><p>To break down fat in a septic tank, you will need to hire a professional septic tank cleaner near you to either pump the septic tank or use a shock treatment to clear the clog. It&rsquo;s important to not pour fat, oil, or grease (memorable with the helpful acronym FOG) down your drains because they can clog the septic system. Instead, you can dispose of them with regular trash, or if your household produces a lot of FOG waste, you may want to install a grease trap for your plumbing.</p></div>

"Nicole was great she walked my property with me talked with me about how to trim my trees, what changes needed to be made to my landscape (move bushes/plants, remove trees ect) to be as proactive as possible in protecting my home in case of a wild fire. Nicole understood that the natural beauty of my property was important to me and I spend a lot of time outside and she took it to heart suggesting things to keep my property beautiful but practical and safe. Will definitely hire again in a few years to go over the changes and make sure I’m as protected as possible."
