"We had a completely clogged kitchen sink. Alex Y. (the Rescue Rooter employee) is a friendly, quiet, patient, and highly professional tradesman. He wore protectors over his boots to keep our house clean, went into the crawlspace for a thorough check of the drain pipes, to ensure proper drain angle without any sagging pipes, all part of the free inspection. He gave us a firm quote on each of two approaches to clear the clog, snake or water-jet. While it wasn't chepa, Alex' quotes were well under the estimates from the RotoRooter rep (who did NOT inspect the pipes in the crawl space). We opted for the snake, and Alex did a quick and effective job. He also suggested a product we could use to prevent future blockages, and his price for that product was again less than RotoRooter's. Rescue Rooter also gives a 10% discount for seniors, or for veterans. Unfortunately, I couldn't persuade him to give me a double discount as a very senior veteran. Oh, well."

"Zach with Knock out Pluming a Seattle based company was great to work with! He did not try to "over sell" the two items that needed replacing. the toilet had a crack and the water heater had burst and it was a Sunday. I was frantically cleaning up water when Zach arrived on the scene. He not only fixed the problem right away but kindly helped me with the clean up. He came back the following day with the new water heater and toilet that did not break the bank! He was efficient, knowledgable regarding the best products to suit my needs. I highly recommend this company."

"We had a plugged kitchen sink on Thanksgiving eve- bad timing! Carlos came 45 min after I called, did a professional assessment of the problem, and was able to clear the blockage quickly. Very friendly and helpful. He does all drain and septic issues, and I will certainly call Rooter Tech LLC. again for plumbing issues. Highly recommend."

"I'm very happy with the service received from Schmitty's plumbing. When I called them about a leaky shower faucet, they were quick to respond and even quicker to solve the problem. They also offered to look at any other issues, and quickly fixed a garbage disposal issue as well. The price of the service visit was exactly as quoted over the phone, and was reasonable."

Drain Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

A small amount of diluted bleach is okay to pour down a garbage disposal. As part of your weekly garbage disposal maintenance, use 1 teaspoon of bleach with your concoction of ice cubes and lemon peels. Turn on the disposal and run the water until the blades chop up the ice cubes.

Any more bleach in your disposal can harden oils and greases in your drain, which can cause problems. Always wear gloves when working with bleach, and know that you really don’t need bleach at all—vinegar, baking soda, salt, and ice should do the trick.

Yes, flushing a clogged toilet can make it overflow. While flushing the toilet may push enough pressure through the system to dislodge the clog, this is unlikely. Your best bet is to use a plunger and hope the suction can break up whatever is blocking the pipe. If this doesn’t work, use a plumbing auger or call a pro to help.

DIY plunging or drain cleaning chemicals may help minor clogs, but professional hydro jetting ensures long-term solutions.

A clogged air gap can cause a dishwasher not to drain. There are, however, other potential issues that can lead to improper drainage. For example, if you have attached the air gap to a garbage disposal and forgotten to remove the knockout plug, wastewater may backflow into the dishwasher. Check that the air gap is installed properly, and then look for clogs in the air gap and dishwasher filters. 

Yes, you can pour water down the toilet to help it flush. For each flush, you’ll need 1 to 2 gallons of water for newer toilets or 3 to 5 gallons of water for older toilets. Rather than dumping the entire bucket in all at once, pour the water in slowly for the best results. If you’re pouring water down the toilet to help it flush after a clog, only use 1 gallon of hot water.
