plumber recs for Springfield area?

Our bathtub is blocked and for some reason the landlord isn't returning our call (not like her - hoping everything is okay). Any recs for someone to come out and just snake the drain for us who won't charge an arm and a leg?

  • Why not do it yourself. Snaking a clogged pipe is Very easy. Dh bought a 15 foot snake for $17 last week. It's worth a shot before you pay a plumber a fortune.

    I did, it initially got us no where (maybe I wasn't feeding it all the way? it kept getting stuck).  Just tried again, actually, and I think we have success!

  • Our basement tub and toilet are backing up and I was doing wash which I think was causing it. Hoping the snake works DH just went to get one if not calling roto rooter, sigh!

  • Well the snake didnt work. We thought it was the sewer back up being it was the basement, but it was the sewer pump. $800 later and its being fixed. I want to cry. The guy felt bad for me so only charged us 400 for labor, which was nice, but still waahhh!
