Description of Work: We had gone to Rescue Rooter because of our excellent previous experience with one of their plumbers, Anthony Hilton. We called because our toilet bowl was leaking. Mr. Hilton was not available and two other men came. They said that we needed to replace the entire drain system, for an estimated cost of $15,000. They pressured us to have that done. | |We called another plumber, who took care of the problem for $250.

Description of Work: We had used them many times before with good service but this was BAD! We called about our Hot Water heater. A plumber came by quickly. When he got to the door, he told us that he didn't know how to fix a hot water heater. He called another plumber to consult and he and my husband figured out how to reset it so we had hot water. Someone who knew how to fix hot water heaters was supposed to come by today. They missed their 12-2 appt time and came at 3. The new plumber said that we needed a whole new unit and the unit and installation would cost $9,500. We called a friend of ours who is a contractor who told us that we were getting ripped off and we could get a new one for $1500. The installation wouldn't be that complicated b/c we had the gas & plumbing already installed. Horribly disappointing. Never call again.

Ken responded quickly to my call and explained the trenchless pipe replacement process they use in clear, easy to understand layman's terms. It's a fairly expensive process, so Ken worked with me to devise an alternate way to handle part of the job to lower the cost, without sacrificing the integrity of the line. His crew showed up exactly when he said they would. The job went exactly as he said it would go. Ken quoted the job at $12015 and said there was nothing they could possibly encounter that would raise the price. I was expecting them to run an above ground portion of the line through a fence, but they took the extra time and effort to go under the fence instead, keeping the pipe completely invisible, without charging more. They finished exactly when he said they would and left the job site immaculately clean. I've had no drainage problems since and don't expect to. They guaranteed the job unconditionally for 50 years. Hands down, it's the best contractor experience I've ever had
Description of Work: My main sewer line was being destroyed by roots. It was over 80 years old and would have to be rootered every year. Each time, they would pull out more and more roots. I hired Rescue Rooter to replace the entire line, around 100 feet long. My rep at Rescue Rooter was a guy named Ken Baughman. I wish every contractor experience I have would go so smoothly. They basically reline the entire line with root-impervious material, without having to dig up the yard, driveway, etc.

RESCUE ROOTER CAME A LITTLE LATER THAN ESTIMATED, & FOUND THAT WE HAD A CLOGGED MAIN SEWER LINE. THEY WORKED TO REMOVE THE CLOG, & ADVISED US TO DO MORE WORK THAT WOULD COST 1500. THEY DIDN'T CHARGE THE USUAL FEE TO LOOK IN THE PIPE.
Description of Work: RESCUE ROOTER CAME OUT TO FIX A PLUMBING BACKUP FROM THE TOILET INTO THE SHOWER. THEY USED A VIEWER THAT LET YOU SEE INTO THE PIPE.

I THOUGHT THEY TRIED HARD, BUT THEY DIDN'T QUITE KNOW WHAT THEY WERE DOING AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT. THEY SAID THE PROBLEM WAS BECAUSE THEY HAD TO GO TO HOME DEPOT FOR THE EQUIPMENT, AND HOME DEPOT DIDN'T HAVE SOME PARTS. HE REFERRED TO THE SUPERVISOR. THEY HAD THREE PEOPLE WORKING ON ONE PIPE BEFORE THEY WERE FINISHED. IT TOOK ABOUT 12 HOURS BEFORE IT WAS FIXED. THE PRICE WAS KIND OF STIFF AND IT SHOULDN'T HAVE TAKEN SO LONG. THEY HAD TO COME BACK THE NEXT DAY.
Description of Work: WE HAD AN OUTSIDE PIPE THAT WAS LEAKING. WHEN THEY TRIED TO REPAIR IT, THE HANDLE WAS BROKEN AND THEY COULDN'T REPLACE THE BROKEN HANDLE.

THEY WERE QUITE PROFESSIONAL AND EXCELLENT. THEY GUARANTEED THE WORK. THEY WERE GOOD ABOUT ALL OF THE SERVICES. PRICE, I'M NOT SURE BECAUSE WE DIDN'T ASK IF IT WAS UP THERE WITH OTHERS.
