"Samual came on time. He was respectful. he diagnosed the problem and cleaned out the clogged pipe. He tested it and although the drain ran freely he said something is not right and took the pipes apart to find even more grease within the pipe. He gave me a lot of preventative tips as well. I will use this company for all my plumbing needs."

"Had a clog in my kitchen sink. Chico came out and was quickly able to figure out the problem and clear my drain and was very tidy with his work area. The price was higher than expected but worth it considering the quality of work."

"It went very well. The drain backed up several months ago. Plumbing plus cleared it then. When it backed up again recently they followed the clearing with a video inspection. The drain had a flaw from the original house construction. Scott analyzed the problem and knew how to fix it. Scott and Jarod efficiently replaced the bad joint with a free flowing elbow. They cut a clean hole in my driveway. Dug down to the pipe and replaced the bad joint. All that shows is a very neat concrete rectangular patch in my driveway. Good job! Pete"

"Guardian responded quickly to my request at 7:30pm for a plumber. They showed up the next morning at 8:30am...that's super quick! This is a rental property and having the issue taken care of quickly for a tenant is really important. They had everything wrapped up quickly and even sent me photos of the clog, so I knew what caused the issue...quite helpful! I will definitely use them again!!"

"I was told by another plumber that my low water pressure was caused by a faulty regulator, which needed replacing. Al, the owner of ABC, investigated and explained his logical approach to me while he was working. The conclusion was that my problem was caused by my water softener, saving me an unnecessary expensive repair. The next time I have a plumbing problem, I'll call ABC."

Customers say: Quick response

"First we had a backup of our sewer into the kitchen sink. When they came out to clear the blockage, we found out that there was a break in our sewer line - an offset allowed the sewer to back up. Using a camera and other technology, they were able to locate the break - precisely - it was 9 feet below the surface. Working around the rain, the following people put their heart and sole into getting it fixed. Gabriel was in charge of the group - Frank ran the camera crew, Raul dug the hole down past the gas line, electric and water lines. Francisco and Martin did the power flush after the line was repaired. These guys worked IN THE RAIN to get the job completed in a timely manner. After RAUL dug below the service lines, a backhoe was used to complete the hole. I'm sorry, but I cannot remember the name of the operator of the backhoe. Again, superb work. As I'm sure you can tell - I am very pleased with this crew. Robert M. Irvin"

"Did the tune up and check; found a failed contactor in the system, replaced it for $380 and deducted $100 for Angie's List discount; total invoice $280.  Don't know if that's a good price or not.  Service person seemed very credible.

"They are great, definitely would recommend. They were very thorough made sure we would not have the same problem again. We have put them on a contract to come every 3-4 months to clear our lines."

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