He ran a snake through my bathroom drain (P trap) and he unclogged it alright (now it's under my house) He put a ""hole"" in the ""P"" trap.
When he smelled that sewer smell (just as he did and noted to me) he should have investigated further and crawled under the house first before he ran that snake. Then he would have realized this and ran the snake off a run out in the garage instead.
This tells me that this man is not a real plumber. Just wants to get $$$ quickly and heads out for that next ""P"" trap that he's going to break.
When I found out that in my neighborhood, we had a experienced plumber, I called and talked with him and all these things (I told you) he told me in detail why you shouldn't hire a roto-rooter type, because this is what they typically do.
Good Luck and happy hunting - Hope this info. helps.
Pros: reasonable and excellent service by Owner
Cons: running a snake through a ""P"" trap (very bad!!!!)
