"They destroyed the whole pipes that caused flooding to my neighbors. The water was off and every other day we need to go out to the street to turn it on. This company denied the responsibility but later reimbursed me for the first leak repair after employee acknowledging doing partial work. This project aims to address and fix the extensive leaks. Must be completely replaced, cause of leaks appears to be from over heating of the copper as locations are at ALL connections and bends in the pipe, too much to patch. You can contact me to this phone number: 9(16) 857-5652"

"Brent is quite a salesman. He told me it was easier to just replace the existing system and would cost about the same. He just about talked me into the Netafim system but it wouldn't work for my garden. His original bid was pretty reasonable, about $2500.00. He told me it'd be easier and cost about the same to just replace the exist system, I added $1,500.00 worth of things to the original bid, and he talked me into some other stuff. He'd be nice while selling, but was often extremely rude, and while he did a good job on the valves, other stuff he ignored what I wanted and the new system is so bad I'd say he's incompetent. If you have a simple low-maintenance yard consisting mostly of shrubs that can be watered with netafim pipe, he'd be OK, but don't have him plant any plants or do a more complicated drip system. I've had to replant everything he planted because he blatantly ignored my direction to cut through circling roots and set the plant's base a little above the surrounding soil, which any landscaper should know anyway. He did give me estimates for each extra, and no one item seemed way out of line (though in retrospect I realize they were). The final bill was $8,870, Since I have to re-do much of the drip system and have had to replant all the plants, for my money, over and above what I had, I got 3 new sprinkler valves, a new controller that I didn't really need, an extra hose bibb, and an old sprinkler head replaced, and 1/2 inch tubing w/o any emitters for potting plants. I'm not sure how this happened - that's why I said he's a great salesman. It's like I went into a fugue state, and went very passive. The latter could have been because his rudeness was aggressive and kind of scary. I'm not real comfortable about giving him a negative review. I wish I'd never hired him and I never want to see him again."

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