"Brandon arrived on time for the appointment, but by then, the blockage had cleared itself in the sewage line. Brandon was very polite and professional. He checked the sewer clean out trap for us, and confirmed that the line appeared to be free of any clog. He said there would be No Charge since he didn't really have to do anything. This was unexpected, and a very nice surprise. Most plumbing companies want to charge you a fee just for driving to your home, and then add a minimum hourly rate on top of that. I've used All About Plumbing before, and they've provided excellent service every time. I highly recommend them."

"These guys were fantastic! Last Friday I received a call from the town about an excessive amount of water use (like five times the normal amount) After some trouble shooting we came to the conclusion we had a leak on the main line outside. I had made a few calls to other plumbers and by Monday (8-14) even managed to get one willing to come Tuesday but was warned that they wouldn't be available to do any actual work for another week or two. Not happy with their schedule or the lack of concern of my leak issue, I made one last call to All About Plumbing. The man I spoke who asked multiple questions about my issue and unlike the other plumber, he seemed to share my concern with my issue. He even apologized that there was one stop ahead of me but insured they would be by as so as possible THAT day. Later on Monday morning two friendly men, Richard and Kasey, showed up, did a quick assessment of the work, gave me a fair estimate and, to my surprise, confirmed that would be available to handle the work on Wednesday-in just two days! The new line would go from the meter, under some drainage pipes and a sidewalk, through two flowerbeds the foundation before connecting in our basement. Richard took the time to explain everything they would need to do. He then assured me they would be do their best to not disturb more that what was necessary for the job and they would return everything the best they could. (Using grass seed in the yard, returning the cut peice of sidewalk, waterproof sealing the hole in the foundation) Then jump to today (8-16) Richard, Kasey and a new guy, Ben, show up first thing and get right to work. They ran into a few issues and Richard had to jump though a few hoops with the permit but they handled everything calmly and professionally. Also anytime the guys had to come inside for the work they were very kind and respectful (Even gave my excited pitty some love) Honestly I have never been so relaxed when working with a group before. Their work was quick and it looks amazing. I will happily use All About Plumbing again and would recommend them to anyone in need of a plumber."

"This was an expensive project, but we believe in reducing our "carbon footprint" so on-demand water heating instead of keeping our old 75 gallon unit hot all the time, seemed to be the right thing to do."

"I wish that they at least look through a camera to see what was clogging the drain. The team was nice, polite, and clean. But, the cost was a bit too much for just running the snake through the pipe, and not knowing the root cause of the problem. They need a camera!"

"Chase gave us a good estimate on the tankless system and recommended a new, larger pressure tank, which we knew we needed. He provided information on the options and checked to make sure that our choices would maintain the proper value of our house. The team did a good job of installing the new equipment, keeping us informed through the process. It was reliable and painless. Of note: we sent requests to 3 plumbing companies through Home Advisor, and Benjamin Franklin was the only company to respond at all. The office contacted me the same day."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Asheville, NC

Snaking a simple clog near a tub, toilet, or sink often takes about five minutes. Deeper blockages along the main line can stretch the job to a few hours because the pro must feed extra cable and may need a camera to confirm the pipe is clear. Either way, specialized tools help pros work quickly and keep your drains running for the long haul.

Aggressive snaking can scratch pipes, push debris deeper, or even crack older lines. That risk is low with an experienced plumber who matches the cable size to the pipe and eases the snake through bends instead of forcing it. If you’re unsure of your technique—or your pipes are already fragile—calling a licensed pro is the safest, and often cheapest, move.

Start with simple barriers: mesh screens on every tub, shower, and sink keep hair, food bits, and jewelry out of the pipes. Skip harsh chemicals; a monthly flush with hot (not boiling) water clears light buildup without damaging plastic lines. Finally, practice smart disposal—no grease, wipes, or kitty litter down the drain—and schedule routine cleanings if you have older plumbing.

Roto‑Rooter typically charges a flat $160 to $450 for standard snaking, which may include a quick sewer inspection and basic clean‑out. Exact pricing depends on the clog’s location and complexity. Repairs or part replacements fall outside that flat fee, so ask for a line‑item estimate if your tech spots broken pipe sections or recommends additional work.

Most liquid cleaners rely on caustic chemicals that eat through hair and grime—but they also erode metal and even some plastics over time. Repeated use strips protective pipe coatings and can leave you with leaks or premature failures. If hot water or a plunger doesn’t help, call a plumber for mechanical removal instead of pouring more chemicals down the line.
