"Mr. is a plumber of course of course. I called him and he was responsive. He came out and I needed more work done than what we had planned. He took care of it all. He was very professional and the work was quality. If you ever need a plumber, please be sure to call Ed. I have used other plumbing services in the past for other issues but this guy has it down. No hidden costs, he has all the costs for each thing in writing in his folder and they are very reasonable."

"Javier started July 12, 2024. We met at Lowes to pick up new shed at 10am. after picking up shed. I told him to meet at house but i had a few stops to do before heading back. he asked if he could get a burger and i said OK but don't take long. when I got home, he was not here yet, so I called him. he was still in Lodi having lunch. I was upset. because he wanted to start before, I had shed cleaned out he help unload shed. then he started to take down old shed. about several hours of unscrewing, he got mad and start to saw the shed when the sparks hit me i asked him not to use the saw again because it can catch something on fire. he was told several times. I was getting upset. he did work until 8 pm. next day he started the new shed. We had a few disagreements thought out the day. about 6 pm I told him it was time to pack up because my mother and i was tired and hungry and it too another hour to pack up. i missed our dinner date. before leaving Javier said to us that he would not be back until Monday. i was in shock so i said OK. Monday, he shows up a few minutes before 10am and start working. Monday afternoon i tell him he not working after 5 and he got mad and said he can't work Tuesday because he has other job. i told him he needs to call the other client and let them know he is still not finished, and he will be a little lateo on Tuesday. i said to him in the beginning that he should not get any jobs until he is sure he will be done with my job because i am on a deadline with my park. he went ahead and scheduled know he was not going to be done. so today it took another four hours to finish. then before he started this job, we agreed on $1000 for the hole job. when he finished, he hands me an invoice $1100. i said we didn't agree on dump fee as well. we agreed he would recycle the shed metal. well, he tells me he couldn't recycle because it was dirty metal. i know better than that but paid him just to get him off my property. i was so upset that i decided to wait to call or talk to Angi or do a review because i was mad as a hornet. I will never hire anyone from this company again. they are not qualified/professional like they say on tv or website. then I had a friend over to look at shed work and he said it was done incorrectly so i had to hire another contractor to redo what Javier did. he put the wrong panels together which in turn made she smaller it was and missing parts too. I do not want Javier ever to come back to my property again."

"Adam is amazing. He came by same day and handled business. He is very knowledgeable about plumbing and it shows. He helped educate me on the health of my pipe systems and encouraged me to move forward with high pressure snaking which cleared out the obstructions and got our plumbing back. So grateful to have been helped by Adam!"

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Galt, CA

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.
