"Raiden was very friendly and knowledgeable. My repair request was challenging as I have a very old house with outdated plumbing. He explained everything about the repairs before starting each one and the cost was quite reasonable. I have already recommended Night Owl Drain Cleaning to 2 family members."

"Pacific Stone did a nice job. Person in charge of scheduling measurements and installation was pleasant and courteous. Within a few days of my inquiry they came out to my house to take measurements and they brought samples to choose from. Installation was done within a few weeks after that. Took away the old countertops and sinks. They know what they're doing. One of the installers was actually the owner and they were prompt and professional and cleaned up well."

"Found J&J Plumbing and Heating to purchase and install a gas heaterand the owner Josh showed up did a wonderful job and was very helpful to male sure i knew how to use it before leaving and did a complete walk through with it. Josh was very polite and professional. Over christmas weekend i had a toilet plug in one of my apartments. After calling two local companies i began looking online and reached out to J and J forgetting they did plumbing and heating. After speaking with Josh he said he had a busy schedule but would squeeze me in. Josh was here quickly and was able to help me out for over half the price of other companies. I highly recommend J andJ for your needs. They are there to help quick and very professional. You couldnt ask for a nicer guy very friendly and down to earth guy. He will continue to jave my business. Thanks J&J"

"Joe from JMS Drain Services was my service technician who arrived well within the window scheduled service time. Joe came in, inspected the sink to determine how to resolve my issue, took out the tool (snake apparatus) to clear the sink, and departed my premises within 15 minutes. I was pleased he resolved my clogged sink so quickly so I could rest after a night's work. Thank you again, Joe."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

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.

As a general rule of thumb, it’s best to clean your linear drain every two to three months to prevent debris buildup. However, if you notice it draining slowly or an odor from your drainpipes, it’s best to clear the clogged drain and maintain it more often. If you let a clog go for too long, you may have to invest in the price of professional shower drain cleaning, which costs about $225.

Inspect regularly for clogs, clean drain lines, and ensure grading directs water away from the foundation.

In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don’t technically need a license, as they aren’t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They’ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your plumber’s professional licenses before hiring.

Snaking a drain can take as little as a few minutes for small, simple clogs, up to two hours or more for tough clogs located further down the drain line. For tougher clogs, a professional drain cleaner can likely get the job done much more quickly because they have the necessary tools and expertise. However, your drain cleaning pro might not be able to give you a firm time estimate until inspecting the clog and its surrounding plumbing.
