"They did a great job fixing our sewer line. All workers were experts of this trade. They kept all the dust concealed in the areas they had to jack hammer in the basement. They used a window well to bring in their tools and supplies. They didnâ t want to haul the mess through the house. Canâ t say enough about their excellent work. I have already told the neighborhood about their great work. Thanks guys"

"The drain works beautifully now. There is eventually going to be problems that require replacement of pipe. The house is old. That is why a camera was required. Plumber Anthony Rivera is very professional and does good work. "

He snaked my drain and it works perfectly now. He also gave me some good advice on how to keep my drain clear. I would recommend this business to any homeowner and will use them again!"

"Long time customer here...but late one evening when my plumbing backed up and JN Plumbing didn't have any crews available, so I called another company. The other company created a mess in the next day And didnt solve the issue. Jim Needham plumbing came out and corrected the issues left by the prior company for 25% less. The prior company was completely inept, Lost their snake in the vent without being able to diagnose that he had never gone down the mainline, chose not to use the pipe clean-out that is on the mainline (never even asked if there was a clean out), never actually attempted to clear the blockage since they didn't know where the snake went and couldn't get a camera in the line, and still expected me to pay the full price for doing nothing plus reimburse them $400 for the snake they lost and cut off without my permission. Jim Needham arrived promptly the next day, found the missing snake and removed it easily, put a camera down my pipe and cleared blockages, and reset the toilet that had been left unattached in my bathroom by the other company. JN is not the least expensive company, but they are absolutely honest. Randy and his partner determined that they did NOT have to dig up my pipes as the first company claimed, then they explained what they were seeing to the second crew, Tyson and Darion, who retrieved the snake (went the extra mile to do it), cleared the blockages, and reset the toilet that never should have been pulled in the first place. In the end, their honesty and competence saved me thousands in unnecessary costs. Worth every penny, and the other reviews that complain about pricing must not have a grasp on the going rates for plumbing work by professionals and the headaches it can save."

"I had a drain that was clogged and the HOA was going to have an entire Hazmat crew come out and hit the mainline from the bottom up. I called Precision for a second opinion. Let me just tell you Key-Gee found the issue, diagnosed the problem, and found a solution that was a couple of hundred bucks rather than a couple thousand. Stress...gone, anxiety...gone. 12 of 10 would hire again and highly recommend Kay-Gee if you can get him. These guys know what they are doing and I won't ever use another plumbing company."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Boulder, CO

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.
