"Horrible workmanship - to the degree that I am truly suspicious of any of his online reviews and their credibility. This man, hands down performed some of the shabbiest and most unsightly work I have ever seen. As if that wasn?t enough, when I approached him about it, he grew defensive to the point of leaving my home without notice and leaving nails, metal shavings and tools behind. I would never in my right mind recommend this man for any job.Take a look at his ramshackle van - mind you, I don?t generally judge about a persons? auto. Had the owner of this one-man company performed well, his vehicle would have never been mentioned. However, I feel that van mirrors the aesthetic his work takes on. Atrocious work and what?s worse is his sourpuss attitude."

"The technicians who completed the work were excellent ? I would rate them 5/5. However, the office team that contacted me did not provide an accurate quote. I was assured that, as a first-time customer, I would receive a favorable price, but this turned out to be a misleading promise made only to secure the business. Relying on that assurance, I canceled another professional and proceeded with Stellar Sewers Coastal Plumbing, which I now realize was a mistake. Due to the urgency of the situation, I had no choice but to accept the higher price. While the field staff performed well, the misleading communication from the office was disappointing. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I cannot recommend this company to others."

"Gilbert was easy to deal with, drove some distance to help me THE SAME AFTERNOON, replacied a messy 20 year old water heater and greatly upgraded my hot water system. He did everything to make it codeworthy, came in to deal with the vent in my attic. All this at a lower price than a number of other bids. "

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