"Our kitchen sink was backed up and clogged the night before guests were to arrive for the weekend. We called a couple of plumbers but only Done Right was able to come first thing the next morning. The plumber showed up on time, quickly evaluated the problem, and proceeded to fix/replace the drain line. He was polite and kept everything clean. We would use Done Right Today again."

"Rob was our technician - wonderful customer service and showed up on time on a last minute Friday afternoon call. A bit more expensive than I'm used to for clearing a drain, but very happy he got it done for us so can't complain. Would use them again for sure!"

"My kitchen sink was clogged & leaking underneath. I called late Friday and they scheduled me for a first call Monday morning. I was well informed by text on confirming appointment as well as a phone call with an ETA. Both Ben & Katelyn were exact on their arrival time and were very professional, hard working, friendly and very patient with me and all my questions and concerns and me talking way to much and they very quickly put my mind at ease. They were able to fix the problem with no issues. I highly recommend Seaside Plumbing and their Technicians Ben & Katelyn!!!"

"It went extremely well! They were punctual, hardworking and professional. It was necessary to dig up my neighbor's landscaping, so they were very careful to disturb only what was necessary and to restore everything to its original condition. They even replaced her broken underground downspout extension (which was draining into my basement!) without comment or additional charge. When my neighbor accused them of causing a problem, MJ was quick to respond and the team on-site made a point of apologizing to her in person. I don't think MJ caused the problem, so I was very impressed that they "went high" to investigate the matter and, as I said, apologize for the inconvenience she felt she suffered. The work they did inside to remove mold and seal the wall was thorough and neat. The gentleman doing the work cleaned up everything and took all of his equipment and trash with him. his is especially important since he was working with strong chemicals. My contact in the office was prompt to address anything I threw her way. It was easy to make payments online. Best of all - no sign of water in the basement since they were here!!"

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Lincoln, DE

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.
