"All Star Rooter was fantastic. gave me a straight assessment of the odds for my cleaning out my leaching field through removing roots and then blowing out with water which I appreciated. Odds were not good but we decided to go ahead rather than go straight into a replacement. Brian and team came over to take a look at our situation before starting and asked again if we wanted to proceed. He was professional and efficient and best of all it worked! I would highly recommend All Star Rooter’s services whether it worked for us or not."

"Suddenly, my basement drain was backing up! A friend tried to unclog it, but to know avail. He thought it might have something to do with the sewer line that ran to the street! Right away, I started seeing dollars signs. So, I went on Angie's list and saw the reviews for HL Bowman. Because they were so highly recommended, I went to their website. Immediately, there was a person named Tiera to chat with. I explained my situation and she asked me a few questions. She told me she would have some one call me. I asked if it would be today because there was sitting water in my basement and I was afraid to even flush a toilet! She said it would definitely be today! Within two minutes of concluding the chat, my phone rang. A very courteous person assured me that he could get someone out there today! It was about 8:30 am and he told me that he could have someone by this afternoon and they would call me before they arrived. Around noon, a young man named Clayton called and said he was on his way. When he arrived, he went to basement and checked out the situation. When he came up he said that he thought the clog was in the pipe along the wall going out to the sewer. He brought in a machine and spent approximately and hour and a half trying to open the clog. He then told me that he had called another person from the company to bring a larger machine. Then, Corey showed up with a huge machine and Clayton left to go to another job. Corey was down there for about another hour and half. The machine was much louder than the first one. I was really worried about the cost and the fact that it was taking so long to open. I pictured having to have my lawn torn up and imagining what that would entail, not to mention the cost. Suddenly, he appeared and I tried to prepare for the worst. He looked at me with a smile on his face and said, "it's open". I was so surprised, I am sure he saw the relief on my face. 'He explained that he had to go out 75 feet to the street, and the that the clog was because of tree roots which he grinded through. I knew this machine was probably more expensive to use than the smaller one. So I braced my self and I asked him what the total charge would be! When he told me, I was shocked as that even included the $70 service fee which included up to 45 minutes to diagnose the problem and give me an estimate. But, because Corey had to bring a bigger machine and stay longer than Clayton had estimated, I was sure it was going to be astronomical. Corey said he would figure it out! When he told me the price I could hardly believe my ears. It was half of what I had anticipated! I was thinking about $1,000- $1200! I can't begin to explain how relieved I was.. I would like to say both Clayton and Corey could not have been nicer. Very mannerly, friendly, and polite. When Corey left, everthing was cleaned up! No sewage anywhere. And another thing that I thought was extraordinary, was how unafraid they were of my two pittbulls. They petted them and Corey even told them to stay when they tried to follow him out the door. LOL! And they, listened! I have found my company should I need any future help. It's good to know that there is someone out there who is professional, knowledgeable, and who charges fair prices. It wasn't cheap, but I believe it could have been a lot higher. Family members also thought the price was good. It started out as a bad day, but I had a smile on my face when Corey left!"

"We have an old house (100+ years old). I called Atomic Rooter to fix a bad clog and reconnect drain pipes. They responded quickly, came the next day (as agreed), on time, professional, clean and upfront price. For plumbing services, I think they were very reasonable. Larry and his assistant were great. I will use them again."

"I selected Schede Plumbing for my conversion from an oil fired heating boiler to a gas boiler. My selection was based on known referrals in the Stamford, CT area from other well satisfied customers. I could not be more pleased, nor rate give enough praise and thanks to Lou Schede and his expert technicians. This was a major project for me and I was very anxious as to how the how conversion would take place. It would require draining the fuel tank, cutting it into manageable pieces and removing it from my basement. The idea of a gas conversion process was a bit scary to me but Lou Schede walked my through was would be involved, assessed what the heating requirement would be for my house, and selected a gas boiler which fit my needs perfectly. It was only two weeks from the time I first contacted Lou until the time the installation took place. My goodness, three Lou Schede trucks and four highly trained, professional and very polite technicians arrived at my house at 8:20 AM and by 3:00 PM my new gas boiler was installed, tested, and providing heat. Amazingly diligent workers worked very hard and did an beautiful installation. It was like a work of art in motion watching them work. The fuel tank was drained, cut up and removed. the oil fill pipes from outside to inside the basement were removed flush with both the interior and exterior walls and were cemented over. Beautiful, as if the pipes were never there. What also impressed me that whenever I had a question for Lou he was always there, immediately. No complicated voice menuing system. You want Lou, you call Lou, and you get Lou...immediately. This was very satisfying to me and he was a real pleasure to deal with. Absolutely top notch in every respect. The price for the installation was remarkably affordable....more that 6 to 8 thousand dollars less then competing firms. Incredible. He even cleaned the chimney, which was required by the city building code, applied for the permit at his expense. This was a thorough, comprehensive one shop job. Other firms required a separate electrician to hook up the thermostat, a separate firm to drain and remove the oil tank, and a separate firm to clean the chimney. Lou and his staff did it all!. One firm and he and his staff did it all. This is amazing. Lastly, he even accepted credit card for payment upon completion of the installation. I can go on and on. I have nothing but the best things to say about Schede Plumbing And Heating. They have my highest recommendation and are now my go to plumbing and HVAC company. Thanks Lou to you and your technicians for thoroughly well done job and an installation experience that was truly a pleasure."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Cos Cob, CT

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.
