Hello. Mike has been unclogging drains since 1993. He can unclog almost any type of drain. He is friendly and has been blessed to raise a family and business here in Bakersfield. Give him a call and he can give you a free quote.
Description of Work: Cleared 3 drains in master bathroom. Mike was here in less than 2 hours after I called. No mess, no fuss, just good all around.

Mike was prompt as always and had the line cleared quickly without making a mess!
Description of Work: Cleared main line to street. Mike has been our go to guy for many years. Tenants in our rentals haved plugged the line with more different items than I can recall. Mike has always been there when we called and didn't overcharge on holidays like some will. His rates are in the phone book and they are the same for everyone, rich or poor, regular customer, or first time caller.

Could not have been better and the price was certainly right.
Description of Work: I've had a root problem since I bought my house in 1986. I stumbled upon Affordable Rooter since I wanted to use a locally-owned and operated business. Mike came out immediately that first time and took care of the clog in minutes, didn't try to sell me any other service. I've used Affordable Rooter ever since and have never had a bad experience. He came out on a holiday once and charged me the regular rate (which seems much less expensive than the national chains). My beagle and I looked forward to his annual visits and advice on permanently taking care of the problem. Must have worked. Havent' had a clog in 2 years but still have him out to run the main drain.

I've used Affordable rooter for many years with nothing but great service, very timely response and a cost about half what the national chains run, along with free advice to keep the problem from recurring. Mike is just the best That house is now a rental and I'm about to call him to go run the drains as a preventative measure. I wouldn't call anyone else.
Description of Work: I typically have to have my main drain rooted at least once every year due to tree roots somewhere near the street getting into the sewer line. I've used Affordable Rooter for many years and have always found Mike to be very quick to respond, professional and efficient in his work. My first experience with Affordable Rooter was New Years day and Mike was there in about 45 minutes, had the problem cleared up within an hour. He charged me $75 for the holiday/weekend call. Any other time I've had the problem, it's been $55 for a call and he was equally quick to arrive. He even gave me advice on keeping the roots out of the line by dumping a couple cups of rock salt in the toilet every few months. Of course I didn't follow through, but it was advice that, if followed, would cut into his business so I much appreciated it. I recommended Mike to my dad for a drain/plumbing problem and he cleaned the drains and did some plumbing/toilet adjustments inside the house for him at no extra cost. I'd recommend Affordable rooter to anyone who wants quality work, quick response and a great price from a good businessman.

Recommended to me by another plumber from the list who said he does not do that kind of work. Apparently, our mainline had become clogged by tree roots. The company (really the owner) answered the phone quickly and arrived within two hours of my call. He was friendly and tried to show me what was wrong. He also seems to have fixed the problem, though time will tell. Two things bothered me about the experience, though. First, Mike told me a rather strange story; it was sexist in my opinion. Second, he charged me $75, though in our local yellow pages they advertise $50. He said this was because it is a weekend, and he checked "Over-time" on the invoice. Otherwise, the service was quite good, though he also insisted on cash, which I had to go get, while he worked.
