"Drain was blown out partially and serviceman wanted to take drain pipes apart but I refused and cleared with drain cleaner. I also refused new water switch which he suggested replacement for. Old switch worked fine once it dried out."

"We had already spent 2 days going though everything Home Depot had to offer for our clogged drain. It continued to get worse until there was standing water in our tub and everything from all other sources (sinks, washer, toilet, etc) was pushing water up through the tub drain. I was worried we wouldn't be able to get anyone to come out on a Saturday. My initial call was around 8:30 am and went to voicemail, but as I was leaving a message they were calling me back. The woman who answered the phone was very polite and courteous. I explained our problem and she said she would call her plumber and call me back with a time. It was that simple. Marc was there within 2 hours. It turned out the clog was outside our house. I had taken the kids out of the house to keep them from flushing toilets and running water, so I wasn't home to see how it was resolved and can't speak to those specific items. What I can say is that our water usage was back to normal within 2 hours of Marc showing up. He also said that if we use their service in the future he would be the one to return unless it was another emergency call and another plumber was on call. I like that this company will send out the same person, as that helps keep things consistent and cuts down the time in explaining previous work. I hope I don't need a plumber for a long time, but when I do I will call Will's Plumbing again."

"The Hotel technician arrived on time, was courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable. He disassembled and examined our existing, Glacier Bay RO system and determined that a charcoal filter cartridge had leaked some of its charcoal into the system, which clogged the lines. We wound up having to have another RO system installed."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in San Antonio, TX

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.
