Description of Work: I have used these guys for years. They have always been very friendly and professional. I was really happy when I joined "Angie's List" and found them at the head of their class. It is such a relief to find folks that take pride in their jobs and their performances. I highly recommend " The Drainman Inc". :) Wanda Wynn

See the above description.
Description of Work: I made an appointment on Tuesday for a 9:00 a.m. on Friday. At 10:00 am on Friday I had heard from no one, so I called. They said I was not on their books-they did not know what happened; I was upset. They said they would send someone right out and he came fairly soon. Once he was there, he did a good job. I do not know if that was an isolated incident, or if that happens frequently. I was quoted a price of about $140 on the phone on Tuesday and at time of service he said it would be $160. I asked for my senior discount, then he gave me $10 off......draw your own conclusions-not an A rating from me.
