"We had some trouble communicating, but once he got started on the project, he worked his head off. HE worked 10 hours one and about 5 or 6 hours the next. He did the job thoroughly and professionally. He did a very good job and I am pleased."

"I had a toilet that was clogged and everything I did to unclog it was unsuccessful. I called â Open and Flowingâ to see if they could help. Their service was quick and attentive and I was back in â businessâ before I knew it. While they were there they also unclogged a sink that had been giving me trouble as well. This company goes extra mile! They will be my first call the next time I have any other drain issues. I highly recommend them!"

"I called the answering service on a Friday night and the lady told me that they would have someone at my house within 30 minutes. She also told me that there wasn't any up charge for weekends. The tech was at my house within 25 minutes and was very polite and friendly. He then figured out where the clog was and within 30 minutes he had our drains cleared and water flowing freely again. He did a great clean up job and the price I believe to be very fair for coming out on a Friday night without any appointment. I will not hesitate to call these guys again for any drain problem."

"Maurice responded within 30 seconds of my Angi "request for quote" being submitted. He came out to clear an exterior area drain the next morning (by our request), even though they offered to come that same evening. He was courteous and professional, and successfully cleared the blockage. The cost was competitive and of very good value compared to two others I received. We'd certainly call, again. Thank you!"

"Sol and his associate arrived right on time and put shoe covers on to enter our home.  Our carpets were really dirty and had some pretty bad stains.  The got all the stains out and left the carpet looking brand new.  They took so much time to make sure they got every corner, they moved furniture and put guards under every piece after they were done.  Our stairs that they cleaned looked brand new.  They were professional, courteous and did the best job I have ever had done in all the years I have had carpets cleaned.  I highly recommend their services and will continue to use them in the future.  <br /> <br /> <br />"

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Dorsey, IL

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.
