I called the listed number at 7:15 AM, which was not the office number, and was asked to call the office. They answered promptly and told me someone would come between 10 am and 1 pm, but they would call first. Around 9:55, someone from the office called and asked if this was a good time to send someone. I said yes, and Derek arrived around 10:40 or so. He asked about the symptoms and asked if I had a cleanout access outside. Since the toilets did not caused water to come up in the shower, he used a power snake in the shower. The first time he went in, it didn't work and he said the snake had gone up the vent. He reversed the rotation, went in again, and had it cleared very quickly. Overall, he was in and out in less than 30 minutes. He did not clean up the shower pan, though, which was covered in black gunk. Last time I used them, they did clean it up. Also, last time I used them, after clearing the drain, the tech sent the snake down 2 more times, to be sure it was all clear. Derek did not send the snake down again after it cleared. B for overall quality because of the lack of cleanup and for not sending the snake down at least one more time.
Description of Work: I had a clogged shower drain, and sinks from 2 bathrooms caused dirty water to come up in the shower.

Description of Work: Tim came over expecting to replace a complete tub/shower fixture. I had purchased a complete replacement set including new valve etc because I had been told by two previous plumbers that I needed to replace everything. Tim said that he could solve the problem with a simple fix, went to the store to purchase a new tub spout, came back and put it in, then fixed a couple of other problems - replaced wax toilet seal, fixed leaky kitchen faucet. Very efficient and saved me a bunch of money.

I tried snaking the drain myself with a manual snake, but was unable to clear it. I called late Saturday afternoon and they could have come as early as Sunday morning, but I was busy and put them off to Sunday afternoon and got a 2 hour window. They called earlier in the day to let me know that they had earlier openings if I wanted them to come earlier. Benny arrived with another guy to help him. After checking the nearby sink and toilet and asking if I had any other problems, he went straight to work with the snake and cleared the drain within a couple of minutes. After cleaning the hair off of the end of the snake, he went back in 2 more times. After he was satisfied it was clear, he wiped down the shower pan. The whole process took about 20 minutes from start to finish.
Description of Work: Cleared a clogged shower drain.

Description of Work: They cleared out sewage line which had clogged twice in 2 months. While I was out of town they educated my wife on the sewage system and how to fix such problems. Their service was beyond excellence. Some of the other contractors wanted to start digging and change out the sewage lines or install more expensive cleanouts.

When i called the the $15.00 sewerand drain co.they said it would be two hrs for a teck to arrive. He arrived just a little over an hour (that was good) After looking at the sewer situation and determining and discussing with me what the best,and safest way to do this job ,and Iagreed with him. He called in for more help and another person arrived in about 20 minutes. They went right to work after an introduction.I was able to observe them from a window in the bathroom while I was watching the water level in the shower stall for them so i know how much of the snake they had to use. (all). Before I agreed and gave him the job the 1st person did explain to me about the city water district and the city-cleanout and their policies depending on clogged sewer lines at or around the cleanouts.I Felt they were truthful and honest with me.I thouht they were very professional and made a good positive company impression . They were fast and efficient and clean. Before calling I had expected ( as i have experienced in the past with other companies) to pay much more and be treated and talked to like my clogged sewer was an end of the world catastrify that only they could fix and that they had me by , well, you know (the twins). When the job was done and their taillights disapaired our sewer lines were the cleanest they have ever been, My wife was happy, and I did not feel like I had just been ripped off. Did I mention that my wife was happy!!
Description of Work: Our sewer line had backed up into the bathrooms,(showers and tub). The job required running a snake to unclog the sewer line from the vent pipe on the roof. As it turned out that for safety issues that I agreed with, and the company's safety policies the job required two people. ( = $88.00 x 2) for the first 2 hours. Because the motorized snake was so heavey it could not be lifted to the roof and required one person on the roof to handle the snake and one on the ground to operate the machine. It did take the whole lenth of the snake to reach the clog.(150 ft.).

Fast, efficient, professional and reasonably priced. I could not have been more pleased with the service I received!
Description of Work: New year's day. 7PM. Because sewage backups just don't happen during business hours. Toilet backed up. And then, I discovered the dreaded standing water in the tub and shower. Panicked, I called Fifteen Dollar Sewer & Drain. They'd come out once before when the cleanout overflowed (big tree roots around here!) and did a great job at a reasonable price. The person on the phone was polite and helpful and told me he could have a plumber out to help us in 1-2 hours. It ended up being slightly longer than that, but hey - it was after hours and a holiday; considering all that the response time was quite acceptable. (It turned out two plumbers were tied up at a big job that took longer than expected). The quote I received on the phone was accurate, and was exactly what I was charged. Zeke arrived, friendly and professional despite the late hour and the freezing cold night. He took care of things and had the drains running perfectly in less than 30 minutes. Great guy, and definitely my hero tonight! Count on great service, a quick response and a reasonable price from Fifteen Dollar Sewer & Drain!

They have several locations. They have always come on time and are very reasonable. We were very happy with what they did. There was nothing that we disliked about them because they were courteous and did the job for us. They were very good as far as we were concerned.
Description of Work: We have used Fifteen Dollar Sewer & Drain for plumbing work over the years. The last time that we used them was to get a leaking pipe fixed underneath my daughter's house. We have also used them at our house for a pipe repair.

Called, said someone would be out within an hour. They were. Couldn't get external drain access open. Going from under sink was too unwieldy due to many bends. Called another truck out with a newer snake but didn't charge me time spent waiting. Happy with servic.

In desperation, we called another unnamed drain company that wanted $1700 and couldn't do it till the next day. Very suspicious. Then we checked on Angie's List and found these guys. One man was out within a half hour; he inspected, deemed it necessary to access the drain via the roof vent and apologized that it would take an hour for his assistant to show up. In less than three hours total, the drains were reamed and cleaned and water was flowing again. In order to do the job, they had to climb up on the roof line in a pounding rainstorm, at dusk, to get the work done. We would ONLY use this company in the future. They were exceptional, timely and very very well priced.
Description of Work: Drain pipes from the house to the street were totally clogged, water was backing up in the tub and shower. We could not dislodge the clog with our own snaking efforts.

The plumbers from Fifteen Dollar Sewer and Drain Company came in and fixed the leak. They also warned me about another problem they noticed. They told me that it would be a more expensive job and that it would take them another visit to do it. I would consider using them in the future.

I called them based on the recommendation I got from somebody. They were awesome. I was freaked out about how much it would cost, but it wasn’t a lot of money. They did a fabulous job. I was extremely happy with them. They were just good. The job done by them was great. The guys who came out were great. They worked really hard and did a really good job. They let me know when they wanted to leave. They were nice guys. They were great all around. Their politeness and dedication to their job was outstanding. I didn’t do a whole lot of comparison when it came to their price, but it seemed pretty good to me for the work they did. They seemed to have corrected the problem. They did a great job of putting it back together again; the cement work nice. Their responsiveness was perfect. I would definitely use their services in the future too.
Description of Work: Fifteen Dollar Sewer & Drain fixed the sewer problem I had just before Thanksgiving. The problem was from the city line. They dug down 5 feet and replaced a piece of pipe. They said that it never should have been installed where it was. They replaced it with a straight line so that everything didn’t get stuck there. They also replaced the cement that they cut into.

I called for an estimate at 9:30 AM. They said it would cost $80 minimum to come. The cost would be higher if it took more than an hour. They said they would arrive between 10:30 and 12:30. The other estimate I got was $40 higher. They arrived at 10:45 and were done by 11:30. Everything was clean when they left.
