"We had to call a plumbing company last night to clear a backup in the washing machine drain. We decided to call Authentic Plumbing Solutions out of Rockwall since we used them one other time in the past and their service was great. Brandon and Dakota cleared the drain and checked the other secondary and main lines to make sure there were no other blockages or issues. They were very professional and efficient. They took the time to explain the problem, how they made the repair and was and even sent camera videos to our email. I highly recommend Authentic Plumbing Solutions. Give them a call! Anita"

"I only rate 4.5 on value for money because with rising inflation any company that maintains a good reputation and insurance & employees must charge customers. So, even though the 3 hours labor I paid to have a shower /tub valve body replaced, it was well worth it. Glad I did not try myself and glad I did not hire an amateur. Result is I paid money and am supporting this company, even though it hurts the wallet, it is an investment in my house. These guys take pride in their work and do whatever they can to make it like it was their own property they're working on. I appreciate how Alfonso communicated well and clearly about the cost and options before doing any work. Great experience"

"Thanks, Lane! He was so courteous and polite. In about 15 minutes, he assessed the situation, gave us a straightforward price with everything that price included AND used the auger to clear the wash rag from our toilet! (Please, no questions as to how it got there!) LOL! He is an experienced plumber. He was wearing a mask and he covered his shoes with booties before entering our home. I highly recommend Lane Jackson and Baker Brothers Plumbing!"

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Balch Springs, TX

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.
