At Mr. Rooter Plumbing every customer’s individual needs are important. Whether it’s a simple sink clog or a damaged sewer line, you can count on a Mr. Rooter plumber to take care of your plumbing needs day or night with never an overtime charge. Our professional service, quality products and honest, up-front pricing make Mr. Rooter the best value in plumbing services nationwide. Mr. Rooter is ready for all emergency plumbing issues, from clogged drains and sewage backups to frozen pipes and leaking water heaters. You can count on an expert diagnosis from Mr. Rooter with our camera inspection tools. Then we’ll fix it right the first time, whether it takes HydroScrub drain cleaning or trenchless pipe repair, with courteous smiles on our faces.

"The office people and technicians who do the work are great. It's the rip-off artist who shows up to show your his "recording" of your terrible drains and tries to scare you into digging up your yard that's the problem. Three years ago, we needed an emergency drain clear on a Sunday. The tech shows up, clears the drain . . . and then Jimmy shows up. What a shyster. I don't even believe the video he showed us was for our drain. Tries to hard sell my husband into thousands of dollars of "necessary" repair work. When I declined, he said, "That's fine, my toilet will be working tomorrow." Later in the week I called Eco-Plumber and they confirmed that although there was a small displacement of the pipe, if we had the drain cleared every other year or so, it could last another decade. Fast forward to last week--yikes, another drain plugged. (Really, it's our fault for not addressing it immediately, until it was really plugged). Eco-Plumber couldn't send anyone out that day. So I called Mr. Rooter. Guess who showed up with his hard sell again? JIMMY. Walks into our house without a mask, starts his flim flam game, mentions how great Trump is (guess he missed the Biden sign prominently displayed in our yard), and gives us the same spiel. The technician was already done, but he warned us about the imminent failure of our whole drainage system. Okay, buddy. Whatever. NEVER AGAIN."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Newark, OH

It may only take five minutes to snake a drain for loose clogs near the tub, toilet, or sink basin. However, clogs near the main line can take hours to resolve, especially if they affect multiple pipes. Plumbers have the skills, experience, and equipment to get the job faster, though you may pay a premium for their help.

Sometimes, using a snake to unclog a drain can cause more damage than intended. Too much force risks scratching the surface and damaging the coating, which could eventually cause cracks to develop. Depending on what’s obstructing the drain, the snake could worsen the problem by jamming the debris tighter and further down the pipe. It’s best to hire a pro with experience tackling a variety of clogged pipes.

One of the easiest and most effective ways to prevent clogged drains is to install snug mesh screens over the drain openings in your sinks, bath, and shower. This tool prevents hair, food particles, and other solid items from entering the drain and forming clogs. A non-corrosive bacteriological drain cleaner is also a smart option to reduce the chances you’ll need to absorb the cost of unclogging a drain.

Hiring a Roto-Rooter professional for drain-clearing services costs between $160 and $450, depending on the complexity of the project. Roto-Rooter costs to snake drains are usually charged on a flat rate basis rather than an hourly fee. These job estimates may include the price of the sewer inspection and the Roto-Rooter sewer line cleaning cost. However, they do not cover the additional cost of repairs or parts replacement.
