"Came out on time. Presented two offers. Snaked drain and used camera to detect any other blockage. Cleaned up after. Had to come back a second time to install a part they needed to order. Did a great job."

"They were able to come out quickly to assess the issue, then schedule the work. The work was performed quickly, but they did have to come back and fix the drainage issue, as they had set the drain as one of the high spots in the basement, not the lowest. So, while it works, it looks odd and I’ve got a drainage tube in a weird spot."

"Joshua did a great job clearing the drain. He was friendly, professional, knowledgeable and personable. He arrived during the promised time window, and he explained his approach and the pricing up front. After receiving my ok to proceed, he found and cleared the blockage quickly, then he tested thoroughly before packing up his gear and cleaning up the area. The price is the best I was quoted, and the service was great. Definitely will call Eco Plumbing again."

"Be very sure what you want and what they will do. We expected a drain cleaning with a snake but got a 5 min. Hair clog removal. It worked but for how long? Also they need an ASAP choice for when it needs a quick fix, but not an emergency."

"The experience couldn't have been simpler or better. They said we would be part of the Logan family and we certainly were taken care of like family. I am so happy we chose Logan and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone. They never attempt to upsell us, but quickly accommodated us when we decided to move up to a HE HVAC unit as opposed to just replacing the AC unit. Outstanding experience and performance by them from start to finish"

"Unblocking a drain (blocked by tree roots) turned out to be more extensive than anticipated. Mr Humphrey did a great job, came back to take care of some water heater issues caused by the silty water on the basement floor. He also gave me some great advice on any future blockage problems."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Dayton, OH

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.
