Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We hope that you consider the estimate that we left with you to repair the broken line, which will ensure a proper cleaning and camera for your line in the future.

Description of Work: Ex-Stink first performed camera inspections of plumbing lines in our 12-unit condo building. We then hired the company to hydrojet lines, including grease traps, to repair old pipes, and install new ones where the old pipes were damaged beyond repair. The Ex-Stink team was professional and helpful throughout, and coordinated work with our deck and concrete contractors. All at a fair price! We're very happy with Ex-Stink's service.

Description of Work: Ex-Stink Plumbing did the sewer rodding at my house. I use them yearly, and they have not disappointed me yet. I will continue to use them. Their price is great, and they are very thorough and knowledgeable. I am very satisfied with the service I get from Ex-Stink!

Description of Work: They used a camera to show the inside of my sewer pipe. I saw roots are partially blocking my discharge to the sewer. I will have to have an outside cleanout installed and they will fix the root problem at the same time. They gave me an estimate which I think is fair but I want to get a couple more estimates before doing the work.

Description of Work: I contacted ex-stink for pipes that had corroded under my slab. I was pleased with the interaction I had with the individuals that initially assessed the problem as well as the team that came to dig up my slab.They kept me informed on the progress and completed the task within the two days they had allocated (despite some additional problems that were discovered along the way). I will be using this company again for any future plumbing needs.
