Great experience all around. Called that morning and Patrick was there in the afternoon. He ran into some complications with the two sinks being connected somewhere down the line but he knew what he was doing and got both sinks unclogged quickly. Nice guy, great work, reasonable price, A+.

Description of Work: I got a sewer inspection for the purchase of a house and was told that I only needed $400 worth of work (Hydro to clean sewer pipe). I bought the house and asked for those $400 in credit, and then got the Hydro work only to find out that WOW SURPRISE, now you REALLY need to drill a hole in your driveway and fix the clay pipe which is going to cost $5000. Awesome. Thanks a lot. If the inspection which I paid $250 for had been good enough to tell me that if would be a $5,000 fix instead of a $400 one, I could have asked the house seller for more money. Now I bought the house and am stuck with this $5 grand problem. Thanks a lot Drainlogy.

Response from DRAINOLOGY
Hello (Member name removed)! I'm saddened to hear about your predicament regarding your sewer line. I must say that drainology can not be considered at fault for this. We only recommended a hydro jetting if we feel it is necessary to complete your inspection. When it comes to sewer lines that have heavy root intrusion we recommend a hydro jetting so that we may clear the roots to see the line so we can inspect for any possible damage to the line that necessitates a repair. Unfortunately we do not guarantee a inspection that has not been completed based on this fact and we urge any prospective home buyer to wait until all inspections have been completed before closing escrow. I again would like to express my sympathy for your situation but I needed to clarify this for any prospective customers of ours.

The inspector was very polite and through. He explained his work clearly and did a very smelly job with a positive attitude.

Both sinks in my kitchen were completely backed up. When I ran the disposal, it would come up on the other side of the sink. It was a total mess. Patrick was very responsive. He came over the very next morning, and cleared the problem very quickly. He also charged me very little. He's amazing.

Everything went very well from arrival to departure. They were professional, polite, and friendly. Told us what the problem was. Fixed the sinks and toilets within 30-40 minutes. They were reasonably priced. We were impressed with their service and would call them out again when there is a problem here or at our rental.
Description of Work: This company responded to my husband's call immediately. They sent two guys within hours of our call out to fix the clogged toilet and bathroom sinks. Our sinks were not draining and needed to be cleaned out. .

Description of Work: rooter clogged sewer line and wrote on bill that it was paper clog. I asked if I should have it cleaned yearly to maintain sewer line and John said there were no roots in the sewer line. I thought he was very honest about my maintance question. I will recomend them and use them in the future when needed.

They arrived when they said they would and di what they said they would do. I had used them about six months ago for the same problem and they were very good both times.
Description of Work: Snaked the entire drain from run-off to connection to the city pipes in the street. They are terrific and have 150 feet of cable as opposed to most plumbers who carry less cable with them. I would always use them for this kind of problem.

Great
Description of Work: Had an emergency where at a triplex that I own the upstairs apt sewage goes thru same pipes as downstairs apt then into the city pipes. The pipe clogged with roots and sewage backed into the downstairs apt. Along with a restoration company I called Roto Rooter to come and clean out the roots then give me a bid to replace the pipes. Roto Rooter charged me 400 to look via video and to then clean it out. Just to make sure the following day I had the guys from Drainology also come look, then also put a video camera down and you could see how Roto Rooter did a less than steller job. What i saw was about an inch round whole cut thru the roots so not completely cleaned out. Drainology re-did it at almost half the cost and then showed me the results via the video camera. They we're completely professional in every way. I highly recommend them.

Called around 9:30 AM and plumber arrived before noon. He quickly snaked the bathtub drain, and it was all done within 30 minutes. Quick and professional, and at $55 a much better deal than some of the large companies who do drain service. I would definitely call this company again.

Yesterday evening I ran two loads of laundry and my two sons each took a shower. About 30 minutes later, my younger son asked me why I filled the tub with that "weird water." Turned out the sewer mainline was clogged and my tub and two showers were filled to the brim with wastewater (judging from the color, it looked like it was predominately from the laundry). I called a plumber, who very kindly suggested that it would probably be more economical to call a rooting service. He mentioned a few companies, among them Drainology. I looked the business up on Angie's List and saw great reviews, and that it was a small, local business (I prefer to support local businesses), so I called and left a message. Patrick called early this morning, and I scheduled a morning appointment. He arrived on time, sized up the situation, found access to the mainline and cleared out the stoppage in 45 minutes. In the process, he had to move a heavy outdoor basketball hoop (which had been planted there for years), which he moved back after the job was completed. He answered all my questions (I have no clue about pipes and drains) and showed me the cause of the stoppage (blasted ficus roots!). He seemed to be a man of few words, but I felt completely comfortable with him and trust his work.

The experience was great! Drainology had done the sewer video inspection before we closed escrow on our house and had provided a quote for the work. After we closed we contacted Patrick and then he and Mike did the work within 2 days. They were very knowledgeable and respectful of my home. I would use Drainology again.
Description of Work: Drainology replaced the sewer line from the house to the street from clay pipe to plastic pipe. In addition fixed my slow draining bath tub.
