TERRIBLE! Don't call these guys to unclog your drain. I called them to clear a clog in our main drain at a rental property. They said they snaked the drain 100ft and that the clog was further down (200-300ft). They also ran the camera to verify. I had another company come out and they showed be the clog at 30 ft and showed me where my main hits city sewer at 50ft. So these guys were snaking the city sewer well past the clog, but didn't clear the clog. They charged me almost $995 for nothing. Clearly didn't know what they were doing or were taking advantage of the situation to make a quick buck.
Description of Work: Clear a clog.

Response from Port City Plumbing
We take comments about our company seriously. The snake was sent out a 100 feet and we had to find your cleanout, locate it and remove wall to access. Your line was snaked 4 times 100 feet out and the cable came back. At that point you need a Jetting Company which we informed you. While the drain is clogged you can not see from a camera as it is full of sewer water. You can only see it cleared after it is jetted. Your residence was difficult to access and drain and we are highly experienced and it is rare that we have to direct you to a Jetting Company.

First job went well. Tried to hire them a 2nd time and couldn't get a callback to schedule time to fix a slow draining tub. I called 3 times and the secretary said she would check with Joe and get back to me. That never happened. Too bad since they did such a good job the first time.
Description of Work: Joe did a great job the first time we had them come to do work at our house and replace a shower faucet and pipe that was leaking.

I called Port City two weeks in a row and they never responded to me. I left messages explaining what work I needed. It was very disappointing as I really needed and still need a plumber.

They did great and the price was very reasonable. They were very responsive as well.
Description of Work: They redid the whole plumbing in a basement apartment for me. They did some digging through a concrete floor, replaced pumps and rebuilt the bathroom.
