"Joshua from Exo plumbers did a great job clearing a clog in our laundry sink drain! He was transparent about his plan to fix the problem, pricing, and goals from the very start. He was honest about what he found and what he would suggest for future maintenance. Not only did he do a great job, he was kind and courteous!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Service from Mr. Rooter! I had a great experience with Mr. Rooter when our toilet needed repair. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, courteous, and clearly knowledgeable. They quickly diagnosed the issue, explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, and had the toilet fixed in no time. What really stood out was their respect for my home—clean, efficient, and no mess left behind. It’s such a relief to work with a company that takes pride in their work and treats customers well. I highly recommend Mr. Rooter for anyone needing reliable plumbing service. They made a stressful situation simple and stress‑free."

"One of the best experiences my wife and I have had in a long time with seeking and using the services of a tradesperson. Wayne clearly demonstrated the â  3-Psâ  of a good tradesperson: Professional, Polite, and Proficient. His work showed that he takes great pride in his craft. He kept us informed by not only explaining what he was doing but why. He completed the installation quickly and at a very fair price; great value! I recommend Wayneâ  s services without reservation. In fact, should we need the services of a highly skilled plumber in the future, he will be the first we will call!"

"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"

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Franklin, 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.
