"Do not call this company! Call your local municipality first. My 75 year old mother-in-law had a basement floor drain back up late the night of June 20. Called Mr. Rooter and they came the next morning. They charged 270 dollars to clean from the house to the sewer. The town and the county will do this for free. Then because this did not solve the problem they "snaked" inside the house using a spear head and partially cleared up the problem. They claimed that there was a calcium blockage that could not be cleared and quoted a price of about $3,700.00 to jackhammer and replace a pipe in the house. They never tried a different cutter on the snake. While snaking, they left a huge smelly flooded mess in the basement. Did not try to clean it. The next day the floor drain backed up again. Long story short, after talking to neighbors, we called the county and they came and cleaned from the house to the street using better equipment than Mr. Rooter did. Then we called a reputable plumber who snaked the inside of the house with the proper tools. The calcium blockage was actually grease that was easily cleared with a cutter head on the snake. Each person we spoke with were surprised that Mr. Rooter did not try to use a cutter on the end of the snake. They were not surprised that Mr. Rooter was looking to dig up the basement and replace a pipe to the tune of 3,700 dollars. Apparently they have a reputation. We also tried to contact Mr. Rooter with our concerns and were told a supervisor would call us. After making several calls, we were finally connected to a supervisor 13 days after our first attempt to speak to someone. He ended up telling us we had to talk to his boss. Still waiting to hear from him. I guess they are going to drag it out past the 30 day satisfaction guarantee. I don't exactly know that their 30 day satisfaction guarantee is, but we are not satisfied with them."

"The original quote was given as $211 to install the faucet I had purchased, which was a lot, but the RR man wouldn't install the faucet until the sink was repaired by another contractor. (There was no interference between the sink and the faucet.) The agreement was made to return two days later. The sink was repaired (reattached to the granite)but the installer wanted it to set before re-connecting the drains and garbage disposal. The Roto Rooter guy appeared the next day, installed the faucet and re-connected the drain and garbage disposal, presenting a bill for $411, for less than an hour of labor, with a charge of a few dollars for shut off valves, which was part of the $211 faucet installation. I am completely appalled that, for the expense of 45 minutes of labor, I am charged at a rate of $548 per hour. My wife paid the bill by credit card, as I was at work, could not protest this outrageous charge. When contacted by Roto Rooter to review the work, I complained and asked to be called, but have not recceved any calls from them. I strongly urge anyone who needs plumbing services to avoid this outrageous rip-off company."

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

A sewage smell in your crawl space is usually from a damaged or clogged pipe leaking sewer gasses or actual sewage underneath your home, but there are some other common causes. Moisture, from poor or damaged encapsulation or a malfunctioning sump pump, can harbor mold and bacteria, causing a musty smell. Pests can also get stuck in your crawl space and die, which causes a sewage-like odor.

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.

In most cases, drain cleaners will not clear a clogged sewer line, and they’re likely to damage your plumbing. Sewer lines are several inches wide, meaning any material that clogs it will need to be large. Drain cleaner can work on small clogs, but it usually won’t clear a larger one in a sewer main. Drain cleaners can also easily damage and corrode your plumbing with prolonged contact, and a clog will keep the cleaner in contact with the pipes for an extended period. Hire a professional sewer cleaner instead for a safe fix.

It can take anywhere from one month to a couple of years for tree roots to grow back in sewer lines. Tree roots can cause extreme havoc on your sewer lines, potentially cracking them and causing untreated wastewater to make its way into the groundwater. Have a landscaping pro remove trees and roots before installing your system, or call a pro to do it retroactively as soon as you can.

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.
