"Good work but a little over price for the job. I had my own part had remove most of old part myself. That is the problem with most of these service company. They are over pricing jobs."

" I would not work with them again they charged me 4000.00 for less than a days work and 1 guy. What can you do when you have plumbing issues and tenants in the house and they know this."

Customers say: Quick response

"They came. They saw. They conquered. Plus it was affordable for the job. No excuses, nothing, but hard work. Once they arrived, they let us know they were there. We showed them where to look, and they went right to work. Hats off to those guys for doing the sh**ty jobs (pun intended) I don't wanna do, and for doing it with smiles."

"Not recommended!! Its a waste of money in my case. My kitchen sink underneath had a clog and a leaking pipe, So the pipe started leaking once the clog happened. The technician came, inspected quickly and quoted $1200 in this case. We did not approve the work and he charged $103. We had two more plumbing companies visiting after, one of them charged $525 (which is also high, but they completed the work) for just snaking And removing the clog, Another company was only quoting less than $200 for snaking and removing the clog. The work was offered to be completed in both the cases. As I am also reading from many reviews, I think Roto-rooter will just come and quote high and charge the visiting fees."

"Cedric quickly diagnosed the faucet issue and attempted to repair it. After determining that it was unrepairable, he ordered a brush nickel faucet that matches our kitchen sink. He suggested that we join the Home Protection Plan for service savings. Cedric is courteous, knowledgeable, and professional."

"Mr. Gallagher and Camden are my new favorite people because I'd be pottying in a bucket tonight if it weren't for them. They spent quite a bit of time looking for options to fix my problem and explaining them to me. I never felt pressured and they were extremely polite and kind. They did exactly what they said they would do and even cleaned up when I said they didn't have to worry about it. Thank you so much."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Highlands, TX

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.
