"Was able to advise me about getting a sewer clean out installed and what was causing the problem with backed up pipes. No repair was needed. This company is really honest and I will be using them again if I have a plumbing issue. Kyle was supper nice. Very helpful."

"The tankless water heater in the hotel we manage went down on July 3 2024. We have a wedding party coming in on July 5. All the plumbers near us either don't service our town or were not working because of the Holiday. Our small town of LaPorte does not have a population big enough to support a full time plumber. We eventually found our way to Angie's List and Plumb Crazy Plumbing responded. Vincent agreed to come to our town from Magalia 72 miles away...normally. There was a fire burning in Oroville that was blocking the shortest path. The new route added another 15 miles to the trip. Vincent arrived at 7PM and worked diligently until 10PM. Vincent returned on July 4th, yes on a holiday, and completed the Job. Vincent's work is clean and he took the time to explain about the new tankless water heater and answered our question. We appreciate Vincent and his company Plumb Crazy Plumbing. He is our plumber of choice . Thank you Vincent for going above and beyond"

"Attaboy is a very professional company, They sent reminders up until the time of the appointment, and the office called 15 minutes before they got here to repair my water heater. Hunter that came out to the house knew what he was doing and was very quick and clean and did an incredibly good job. The price he quoted was reasonable to do the repairs."

I’m Sedrick a maintenance technician currently working in off-campus student housing, where I handle a wide range of day-to-day repairs and upkeep to keep units and common areas running smoothly. My background includes maintenance roles at three hotels as well as apartment communities, so I’m very comfortable working in fast-paced environments where quality and quick turnaround both matter. Over time, I’ve built solid experience with general repairs, troubleshooting, and preventative maintenance across plumbing, electrical, and basic carpentry. I take pride in being reliable, detail-oriented, and getting the job done right the first time. Right now, I’m looking to take on small to medium-sized projects where I can put my skills to use, whether that’s repairs, installations, or general maintenance work

"I hired Ace Plumbing the day before Thanksgiving because of a water heater gone awry! Stores were closed, so they came back on Thanksgiving morning to make sure we had hot water and then again on the morning after to do the final fix! In my opinion, the price was very reasonable, considering it was a holiday. They were professional and seemed to genuinely care whether or not it was fixed in time for my family to arrive for Thanksgiving. I would 100% hire them again!"

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