"I used to have sporadic flooding at the front and rear of my townhouse. P&A cleared and upgraded my garage trench drain, installed a sump pump in the garage, and another sump pump at the backyard entrance. Everything looked great but the real test came when we recently had heavy rains. After a full day and a half of storms my neighbor's basement flooded but mine was bone dry. The best part is I could just relax and not worry about bailing water out of my house anymore."

"I couldn’t be more impressed with the service I received! From the moment I reached out, the team was professional, responsive, and truly dedicated to doing the job right. They recently replaced my old water heater, and the quality of their work was nothing short of amazing. The installation was done efficiently, with attention to every detail. They kept the area clean, made sure everything was up to code, and walked me through the new system before leaving. It’s rare these days to find such reliable workmanship. What stood out most was that the owner himself was on-site and actively involved in the process. It’s clear he takes pride in his business and truly cares about delivering top-notch service. That kind of personal involvement speaks volumes about the integrity and commitment of this company. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, skilled, and genuinely caring team to handle your plumbing needs—look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend them!"

"Professional and friendly service. They were able to come the next day after I called Elgi to replace the pipes under my kitchen sink. Pricing was reasonable and they were quick. I would definitely recommend them to my friends and use them again in the future."

"Dan and co did a great job first fixing my vintage American Standard toilet and then coming back a few days later to clear a badly clogged kitchen sink. The work was done rite! Both jobs were difficult and they took their time and were patient and very easy to work with. A++++++"

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Staten Island, 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.
