"I am leaving a review before the work is even started. I received a quote from another company and scheduled the work. When they showed up, they tried to triple the cost. I told them to get out of my house. I then called Rooter Pro Plumbing to come out and give me a quote. Jerimey Jackson came out and looked over the situation and then put me on a conference call with the owner. They agreed to match the quote I received from the other company even though it was seriously underbid. They are a great company to work with. They are scheduled to come out this week to start the project. I would highly recommend a company with such integrity in the employees and the owner. I look forward to working with them."

"First OFF, ANGI should be ashamed to have this company as contractor. I would STRONGLY recommend not using this contractor for anything. They attempted to replace a toilet i purchased and it was not done correctly. When i tried to call them on it, the never returned my call. When i finally spoke to someone they spoke to me like i was stupid and suggested i do a google search and the plumber (another contractor) that explained their mistakes did not know what they were talking. Despite the fact they installed the toilets perfectly with no issue. They refused to make it right to my satisfaction. They are overpriced, nickel and dime you to death and have the absolute worst customer service. So if you are looking for a shady contractor who doesn't do good work, will "scam" you out of your money and provide the absolute worst customer service then i would say this the contractor for you. If you are looking for a good and reputable contractor that will do good work and provide good customer service, i will have to tell you like the tech they sent out to try to fix their mistake.... "You are better off hiring someone else". If anyone would like more detail or documented proof how this contractor should never be used EVER... feel free to contact me. I truly hope this helps you make the right decision of NOT HIRING THESE BOZOS"

"BUYER BEWARE! Had a pipe leak within my wall. Caught it fairly early with minimum damage. The Roto Rooter rep Brian came out and inspected and said I needed water mitigation based off the moisture in my walls. When I say the leak wasn't that bad, it really wasn't! He stated that my insurance company would cover it all and that he deals with my particular company all the time and not to worry. I obviously was taken back by the cost of almost 4k! Fast forward, my insurance company are questioning duplicate charges and Roto-Rooter is saying I owe almost 3k or a lien will be placed on my property! This whole water mitigation is a scam and the salesman did not tell the truth. They should have picked up their fans a lot earlier than they did. I'm sure they were trying to milk all the money they could. Over 5k for a bunch of fans in my home. I WILL NEVER REFER ANYONE TO THIS PLACE! Contacting my lawyer and will have my day in court if necessary. BUNCH OF SCAM ARTISTS IF YOU ASK ME!"

Licensed Master Plumber with over 20 years experience in all aspects of plumbing. Since 2007, the purpose and mission of Ready Plumbing has remained the same—to provide exceptional service with integrity and professionalism and to build longstanding relationships with our customers. No matter how small or how big the job is, we strive to complete each project in a timely-manner with an unmatched level of quality, competitive pricing and customer satisfaction.
"Work That was needed: Installation of sump pump in crawl space in order to remove water in crawl space. Estimate of $1665 was sent via email on 4/4/2024. Details were not presented on the invoice, but Mr. Dye with Ready Plumbing assured us that the final invoice would have details of work that was done. ½ payment was made prior to work starting and remaining ½ was made upon completion of the work. Work was completed on April 11. Unfortunately, we were not able to physically go under house and examine the work. Mr. Dye assured us that he would send pictures and the final invoice would detail the work done. A few days after the installation my husband was forced to go into crawl space because of an issue with the furnace and was able to see the work that was done. That is when we saw the work that was done. On April 16 we sent an email to Mr. Dye with our concerns. Portion of the email is listed below: We would like to discuss the sump pump installation that you did at 80 Princeton Trace. After examining photos of the work and making a physical examination of the actual area we have identified several areas of concern that need to be corrected. • The pump was placed in a bucket and should be placed in a sump basin with the appropriate lid. The paperwork for the pump (that Mr. Dye gave us) had instructions that detailed that pump should be placed in a basin with top. • The dirt that was dug out for the pump pit should be removed from under the house. • Surface in the crawl space should be graded so water would flow to sump pump pit (which should have been lowest part of the crawl space.) Plastic covering should be replaced (if possible). • Some type of peat gravel should be placed in the bottom of the sump pump pit. Mr Dye refused to make any corrections or discuss how we could come to any agreement without more funds."

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
There are several questions or things to know before hiring a handyman to do any work in your home.
What kind of work do they do?
Do they have proper licensing?
Do they charge for estimates?
Is the estimate for both labor and materials?
Do they provide references?
Do you provide a guarantee?
When can you start and finish the job?
Do you have any before and after photos of your work?
How long have you been doing this kind of work?
Do you clean up and dispose of waste when the job is finished?
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
