"Affordable pricing, quick response, no gimmicks, excellent work. We hired Jeff to fix our kitchen sink pipes, he was able to provide us a reasonable quote over the phone from photos I sent him. He gave us an estimated schedule to come out and do the work, and real-time text messages to update us. He's willing to work late to complete the job. He cleaned up the area very well. Has a great personality. And his expertise shows from the straightforward speedy execution of clearing the clog, and reconfiguring the piping. I was amazed at the craftsmanship, and in less than an hour, our clogged pipes had been cleared and we can finally use it like it should be. Highly recommend Jeff for his awesome skills and integrity, he did not charge us 1 cent extra from his quote. And he gave us clear instructions on how to keep the drain clean in the future. Jeff is #1 for plumbing services in our books."

"Great.! DB’s Plumbing sent Trevor out to fix the problem and he was great. The price was right and he got the drain going fast. He was knowledgeable offered solutions to my other plumbing issues I have at the house. He also gave me a quote for another job I needed done, so I will use them again that’s for sure."

"I've had Mahon at my house to fix big flood-scale plumbing disasters, and this time it was just a leak under our sink. They were great, and the plumber took the time to explain to us what was wrong, show it to us, and explain what needed to be done to fix it. These guys take care of us and we'll keep calling them in the future if we need a plumber!"

"We were very impressed with Oscar from Flash Plumbing. He arrived early to get organized for the complex main water being turned off and was swift and efficient. He had advised by us on a few things we didnâ t realize we needed (individual shut off valves and a P trap). A couple of other suggestions for things we could keep an eye on but no pressure to have him do it now. Oscar was courteous and a pleasure to have in our home. He took everything away with him and cleaned up as he went. I would definitely recommend Flash Plumbing to anyone who needs assistance"

"I donâ t know where to start. Andy Clark and Bruce Crane along with four other guys came to my home for a septic pipe that broke underground. Those guys went above and beyond. I donâ t believe any other guys or company would have did this job for the price they gave us. Thank you so much for your professionalism and knowledge. It had to be over one hundred years of experience in the ground working in my backyard. They fixed a major backup messy nasty issue and I just canâ t thank them enough. For ALL my plumbing needs John C Flood is the best. Thanks fellas!"

"I had an emergency repair and After Hours Home Improvement came to the rescue! I recently had water damage in, not only the ceiling, but the floor/carpet was ruined. Reid and his company were a one-stop shop, which included water remediation, finding the source of the problem, clearing all the damaged household items, figuring out a way to fix the problem at the least expense to me, the homeowner and putting everything back like new. The cause of the leak was in a tricky place and instead of putting my family out and tearing up my kitchen for weeks, they were creative and figured out a smarter way to not put my family out for too long. Reid was organized and kept me informed every step of the way on what they would be doing each day and when they would be done. And, he was right on target! This was an emergency and they came immediately. I will use them for any of my emergency and non-emergency home repairs in the future. I've had bad experiences in the past with builders and this team gave me faith again. Thank you After Hours Home Improvement!"

"Following an initial assessment of a drain clog beneath our HVAC unit, Joseph provided us with a couple options for remediating the obstructed drain. He was prompt with his arrival and clear with explaining what was going on so we were able to make an informed decision."

"Very well. The pipe had a pinhole leak in a copper elbow joint and required cutting the pipe, in a confined space, to drain standing water. G**** Miranda did a remarkable job repairing the pipe and an adjacent supply pipe I elected to have repaired in case its joint might leak. Workmanship was exceptional, potential mess and additional Sheetrock damage was minimized, G**** Miranda worked tirelessly for 3 hours and produced a satisfactory repair."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Reston, VA

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.
