"Jesse was really wonderful - knowledgeable, understanding, and he had all of the necessary tools to get the job done. Our job required some snaking of pipes, and he also had a camera to put through the pipes to make sure that everything was clear. We appreciated Drain & Main's responsiveness to our request (same day), their friendliness, and their expeditious 'get it done' attitudes. We highly recommend Drain & Main Plumbing Co."

"Navin showed up to fix our plumbing issue the same day. He called within 5 minutes of my inquiry, was here in 45 min for a free estimate and our shower was fixed before 5pm! He also tightened the bathroom faucet, removed the hair from the drain without us asking and fixed the bathroom fan while he was here too! This guy is AMAZING! 10 stars if I could!"

"Dan was able to come out on a Sunday very last minute to work on a clogged sink for my mom. He was beyond professional during our communication. Not only did he do a fantastic job, he kept me in the loop the whole way through. He was very thorough and clean (my mom is clean/neat freak). I would absolutely recommend him to others and will use him again."

"They were a little late getting to house but I did appreciate the call before they showed up. When they got here, they went right to work and were able to get access to the main drain to clear out the tub drain. "

"Fair, honest & reliable. We called on a Sunday evening about our broken disposal. They called us back early Monday morning and came that afternoon. Turns out the disposal was clogged and just needed to be cleaned out. We were very happy with the punctuality and service. Only issue was when I saw the bill I was surprised the total came to over $140 dollars, which was only for labor which they charge $88/hour. The man was here about 20-30 minutes but the bill said 1.5 hours. I called to inquire about the bill and found out they charge for driving distance. Michael told me that someone should have let me know that ahead of time and I agreed. We agreed on $115 total. I am happy with that."

"I was worried that the issue with my foundation drain was going to be a huge problem. Robbie and Justin came when they said they would they day after I called, and within a half hour they had cleared out my foundation drain using their water jet machine. They went in thru the basement window so there was no mess to clean up. They were very pleasant, and Robbie explained just what was happening and how they could fix it. I could not be happier with the quick, clean and efficient job they did. I would recommend them to anyone and will call them the next time I have drain issues."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Gloversville, NY

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.
