Just Drains was very responsive to our call and provided a great service for us. The representative was courteous and professional. I would use them again...
Description of Work: Just Drains had a representative come out to open a sewer line that was clogged with tree roots between our house and the street. The sewer was starting to back-up inside the house, and they came out on a Sunday night at 11pm for a reasonable extra charge.

The woman who answered the phone (Brittany) was rude and aloof and ran down a list of pricing for my emergency in a matter-of-fact careless manner. When the technician arrived he told my tenant a horror story about the home not having an external clean out and explained to her that the problem was "MAJOR" and that he'd have to dig out the front yard to the tune of several thousand dollars. The technician was supposed to call ME with the diagnosis since I'm the property manager and responsible for paying the bill for whatever service occurs, however he did not. My tenant called me in tears and panicking because she had been told by the technician not to use the water. When I called the office to understand why I hadn't been contacted, Brittany told me someone had called and left a message. When I verified the number, I discovered Brittney had given the tech the wrong phone number...
Description of Work: Our company owns several rental properties around Indy. We called Just Drains on an emergency when the toilet on one of our properties overflowed and feces came into the tenant's bath tub on a Saturday. We called to request a main drain clean out.

Overall, service worker was prompt, did his work great, problem was with dispatcher/office sketchy rate quote. 20 minutes for 171.00?
Description of Work: prompt, but for 87.00 per day rental I will definitely make it to Sunbelt next time to do it myself. The quote from the dispatcher stating fee of 49 and change to show up, and no solid rate except up to 169, depending on the time it took i was charged more than was led to believe. It took 15 minutes to clean out my drain... No guarantee for six months mentioned.. I have had this done for 125.00 previously..

Laundry room in the basement was flooded because floor drain was clogged. We contacted two other companies prior to using Just Drains, and they obviously didn't want to deal with it, and made excuses about why they couldn't do it (or more than likely didn't know how to fix the problem). Just Drains came out and knew how to resolve the situation (and it didn't take that long either). He gave us preventative instructions on how to avoid the situation from happening again.

We had experienced drain problems for a long time and had another plummer spend several hours working on it. He recommended that we call Just Drains. The serviceman (sorry can't remember his name now) was prompt and professional. It was a difficult drain and he looked at other drains to better assess the problem. After 2 1/2 hours, he said it was so difficult that we would need another appt with a supervisor due to the age of the home, type of drain etc. About 2 hours after he left, the drain completely opened and has been wonderful ever since. Thanks to his persistence, we have a drain that is like knew and better than we have had for years!! We would definately recommend Just Drains!
Description of Work: Had a back up kitchen drained that had been problematic and slow but was draining. Then it just stopped draining. Called them and was able to make an appt that worked for us.

Just Drains misdiagnosed the problem, ruining a holiday weekend for us. Further, they cost me $245 for a totally unnecessary septic system pumping, which was a direct result of their misdiagnosis. They were only willing to reimburse the $100 initial charge for the misdiagnosis. They were unwilling to make any accommodation for the septic service charge. The only thing the owner of Just Drains and I agree upon is this: He doesn't want me as a customer and I don't want him as a service provider. So far as I am concerned, this is a closed matter.
Description of Work: Guest bathroom toilet not flushing properly. Just Drains stated that the problem was with our septic system rather than drains or our plumbing. the technician stated that "the blockage is in between the 2 (septic) tanks." This was July 2nd and the charge was $100. We called our septic service and due to the holiday weekend, we could not get anyone here until Tuesday July 5th. When he arrived, our septic service person visually inspected the septic tank, which had been completely pumped out in March of this year. This service person stated that the septic was working properly and he felt that this was not the problem. However, in order to follow through on Just Drains' statement that the problem was due to a blockage between our tank and the dosing tank, we would have to have the septic pumped out again. It seemed to me that I had no good course of action: either pay for a pumping (which our septic service person said was the only way to be absolutely certain about whether the septic system was working properly) or decline to pump and be stuck in a "he said - he said" situation. I opted for the pumping. This revealed clearly that the septic system was functioning properly. I then called Just Drains, reported on the situation and requested another technician who arrived shortly thereafter. This 2nd technician "ran a main from the osco to septic" and clearly removed a blockage. The cost for this was $210.

Response from JUST DRAINS
My name is Wallace Rice, owner of Just Drains. I would like to make a few points about what the member has stated. I called the other company the member had come out after we had been there. My technician had misdiagnosed the situation and I returned the service call we charged him. He says we should pay him to have the septic tank pumped because my tech told him he thought that is what he should do. What the member failed to mention is that the company he called out to pump his tank was a company he had out there shortly before we were and that they came out again as part of there follow up service for any problems to insure that it wasnt something they were responsible for. Even though they informed him that he didnt have to have the tank pumped and there would be no charge from them for coming out he asked them to do it anyway. He then said we should pay for it. Thats very coniving and underhanded. He was told it didn't need to be done and we refunded him all the monies we charged him that he shouldnt have been charged. He was looking for a free ride for a decision he made and was responsible for and then tried to underhandedly pass that cost on to us through lies and misrepresentation. HE IS LYING TO YOU and I hope you do not appreciate him misleading you any more than I did when I discovered he was lying and misleading me as well and gave us a bad review in return because I wasnt going to be cheated in that way. He is on our NO-service list. If he hadn't had the tank pumped he would not have had to pay a dime except for having his line run which is all that was needed. Regardless who ran the line it was something he would have to pay for. We didn't make a penny from him for the mistake the tech made and we refunded the ENTIRE amount we had collected from him for the travel fee and the misdiagnosis we made in the beginning. All we collected from him was for the job performed to clear his line. Any other costs he is misrepresenting is on him and his decisions. There are a lot of people looking to take advantage of situations and he is one. I understand he is upset but the only reason is because he didnt get over on our company for what he was trying to do and it cost him money for trying to take advantage of a situation he created himself. If he had just thanked the other company for coming out and taken their advice that the line didnt need run at that time, then the only monies he would have paid is what he would have had to pay in the very beginning if there had never been a misdiagnosis to start with. the extra monies he paid is all on him and the choices he made. Personally I find it amusing that he did what he did and then was unable to get away with cheating someone. Winners never cheat and cheaters never win. Sincerely, Wallace Rice

They gave a 30 day guarantee. Not more than two weeks later the drain backed up and they would not come back to look at it unless we paid them the full price.

The customers statement is not accurate. They called back two weeks after the warranty period was up, had they called back during the 30 day warranty period we would have gladly gone back to take care of the issue for no charge.

It went well. The man accurately diagnosed the problem and sought out to find it. He corrected it after some time.
Description of Work: Our shower was backing up due to a clog in our drain. It was very late at night and this comapny sent a man over. THe problem was not where we thought it was so the man had to really work hard to find the clog. He did and charged us what he said he would to begin with. (even though it took him much longer than expected).

I liked the way the came out, they were prompt and on schedule. When I needed to reschedule they were willing to work with me on that. He advised me how to reduce the amount of roots growing into the drain, by using copper sulfate. They also had a lower price than some of the others.

Just Drains showed up, checked pipes under kitchen and then ran their mechanized snake. Showed up within 5 minutes of call, cleared drain within 10 minutes. Recommended changing angle of pipes under kitchen. Polite, professional, fast, on time, and much more affordable than our usual plumbing service.

Went well. Thir pricing structure is a gamble. One fee ($126) good for up to 1.5 hours. Took service rep 40 minutes, including paper work. If I was thinking, I would have had him check the shower drain also. Not that it is currently in need of service, but I'd guess it could use a good cleaning, and there was still plenty of time on the clock. Live and learn.
Description of Work: Drain back up - in sink, going down to main drain on slab. The service rep had the tools needed. Took apart, auged, and all is fine.

It was OK. My husband was the main contact and felt that they did an adequate job. I think he was disturbed with the lack of overall communication by the Technician, unwillingness to remove obstacles from under the sink and clean-up afterwards. Some of this may have been unreasonable expectations on the part of my husband. The Technician did unclog the drain and it's functioning correctly now. The Technician did communicate to my husband how to avoid the situation in the future.

They arrived when scheduled, calling ahead to assure I would be home. When they arrived, they were able to snake out the drain within 20 minutes, and did confirm that it was cleared prior to leaving. The technician who performed the work was not as clean as I would have hoped, dripping toilet water on our carpet through the house as he brought his equipment outside.

Condensation drain on the 3d floor of my home stopped draining. Just Drains was at my home within a couple of hours of my phone call; Kyle worked efficiently and was respectful of the rest of my home and my new carpet. We had a minor misunderstanding about the price - when I called in the receptionist quoted me the standard price for a basement drain, but did not take into account that I said the drain was on the 3d floor. When the job was completed, the price was about $60 more than quoted. Realizing the mistake that was made, the owner agreed to meet me halfway and charged half of the difference from what I was quoted. While I appreciate the compromise, I'm not a fan of being nickeled and dimed for services, such as climbing an extra set of stairs. Overall I am a satisfied customer, and will likely call Just Drains again if the need arises.
