"I had plumbing leaks in a couple of places, but the men that did the work went above and beyond by replacing every component involved top to bottom to ensure there would be no leaks for a long time to come. Very satisfied with the quality of work as well as how quickly it was done."

"I do have to say he does good work. HOWEVER.... We were quoted one price for labor and charged a much higher price. He ran into a friend and talked for a long time while charging us to chat with his friend and then proudly he told us he ran into a friend, and they chatted. We were not allowed to choose the bathtub facet that was going into OUR house. He brought it with him, and it is UGLY beyond belief and now we are stuck with this in our house. The facet is not something I would put in a cellar tub that no one ever saw it is that ugly!!!! We thought at least it must have been an expensive well-built facet because of how high the bill was but NOPE it is cheap and not expensive at all. We priced it. The highest price anywhere was $188.99 with no plumber or any other kind of discount. We were charged $700 for less than three hours of work and that gosh awful facet. We went to the place of business to question the cost and let him know we needed the serial number to register that ugly facet and he refused to answer the door. We called and left two messages and NOTHING. He is refusing to give us the serial number or explain the ridiculously high charge after quoting us $100 per hour for labor. He even insulted us because we asked what the warranty of his work was and wanted him to put his name on the paper. After all, he scribbled on the signature line. Very unprofessional."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Lehigh Valley, PA

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.
