In defense of sewer cleaners/clearers ,it takes a lot of skill to diagnose and clear many stoppages with minimun damage/intrusion.I personally am awesome at drain cleaning ,it's part of my service but only 5-10% of my tickets.People just have to know thier limits and be HONORABLE.

You got a deal not only does the man have all that over head like everyboby knows about but ,, do you know how long it takes to call your self a plumber, 5 years 10,000 hours of hands on,and schooling then another year of working under a master, before he could even take the test then he has to wait 6 months to find out if he passed,, I think the lawers have it easy.And there must be some real smart monkeys out there.

Jealousy is an ugly monster!


Just to add.........If you are "shocked" by the price, you are a liar and are NOT in the industries so PLEASE do NOT post any more drivel here.

And another thing.........NEVER BAD MOUTH a related trade.


One MORE thing....What the hell am I responding to a post that is 5 months old????

I just joined this forum tonight. Read here a couple of times. I gotta say, this first page is making me roar with laughter. I needed that. Laid up with a bad case of cullulitus. Got 2 R/Is waiting on me and my bum leg. Yeah, I needed some stress relief and you guys gave it in droves. Thanks guys.

PS. Not only were your replies funny, they were spot on.
