"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

Clearing typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the blockage size and location.

Yes, chemical drain cleaners contain sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid, both of which are not only dangerous to your health but also extremely caustic. Drain cleaners will corrode your pipes and could lead to destroyed drain lines, especially if the chemicals interact with the piping for long periods. Unfortunately, this extended interaction is likely if you’re dealing with a clog, as the drain cleaner will have just as much trouble as water does moving through your plumbing system.

Boiling water helps unclog a drain, but usually only with a harder abrasive such as baking soda or vinegar. On its own, it isn’t the most effective tool. In addition, you shouldn’t use boiling water if you have PVC pipes, as it can soften or melt them. Use a plunger or enlist the help of a pro if you have plastic pipes.

Pouring drain cleaner down a vent pipe isn’t recommended. First of all, unlike a clog in a sink or bath caused by such material as soap scum build-up, toothpaste, and hair, clogs in a vent pipe are likely the result of debris from trees or even an animal stuck in the pipe. Drain cleaners won’t be able to eat through this kind of material. The cleaner will only become clogged in the vent with the debris, causing even more problems.

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