Plumber quoted me to replace part which he said was really difficult with this toilet ( Bologna ) but when I told him the wax ring was leaking, he said that wasn't a real issue?? But, if I wanted to, I could replace the toilet 450 for their toilet 175.00 if I used my own. Ridiculous.. As far as the evacuation pump goes, he was trying to get me to replace the float level mechanism AND told me if the float level was going bad, the pump was not far away. Total quote was 1200.00. I am sure that it would have costed somewhat close to the IF I actually needed all of that done... I had it done with my own toilet with Penfield Plumbing for 300 and change.. I would recommend Penfield Plumbing!
Description of Work: Toilet leak from wax seal and leak from tank drain. Also, evacuation pump float level wasn't responding and backing up the toilet which was leaking on the floor..

Great. The plumber was knowledgeable, professional, and efficient. We were operating the water for the entire house using the water main in the basement, and although it was too late to completely fix the problem on his first visit, he took the time to make it usable. He did not charge us for this kindness. He came back on Saturday to completely fix it. I was pleasantly surprised at the reasonable cost for the whole thing. I would highly recommend Star Rooter, and will call them again if I ever need a plumber.
Description of Work: My shower handle came off because the valve stem on the shower cartridge broke. Ultimately, the entire cartridge assembly had to be replaced, pipes and all.

Turned out to be two problems - broken water shut off valve and problem in dishwasher. He fixed valve and referred us to an excellent appliance repair person, who quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem with the 20 year old dishwasher, saving us from buying a new one for my mother in law. A very happy outcome!
Description of Work: Diagnose problem with dishwasher (leaking) and repair if able.
They showed up when scheduled, and did the job with precision and professionalism. Would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Clogged storm drain. I have one of those older houses where the gutters feed into the basement and from there into a storm drain. It was clogged, so dripping into the basement. Note it was 2 days before Christmas.

After a day an a half trying to open drain by rotor rooting for awhile and cutting pipe to get closer to where he thought the plug was and at that time decided that pipes were broken and he would have to jack hammer basement floor to repair problem, after doing so to open up floor, pipes was found to be broken and there was nothing but dirty in drain system, repaired drain by putting in new pipes and reattached system with no farther problems, excellent job done by Erik and would recommend this plumber to anyone. Outstanding job.
Description of Work: Kitchen drain was draining very slow, could not get anything down drain and nothing would work to get drain opened, looked through the Anglie list book and found this service, gave them a call in the late morning and they were there late afternoon with outstanding service and Erik was the best and very dedicated to his job, tried everything he could to open drain.

They never did contact me again, so I'm left to assume they have all the business they want already. I'm looking for another plumbing service, I hope I can find one that is not rude and unprofessional. Needless to say, I can't recommend Star Rooter.
Description of Work: I had used Star Rooter before, and they had done a good job, so I called them again. They came to inspect the work, but took a week and several reminders before producing a project proposal. I had questions about the proposal, but for the last two weeks, emails and calls have gone unanswered and unreturned. I can only conclude they don't want my business, but don't have the courtesy to tell me.

I had Star Rooter Plumbing in last November to clear a clog in the drain that goes from my kitchen and washer to the sewer line. Then in March, the same line clogged up again. I called them. They came the same day and removed the clog and scoped the line to determine the problem. The line is broken under my basement floor. They did not charge me at all for this trip, and they have written up an estimate to repair the line at a future time. They said there was no charge since the clog reoccurred so quickly and I was still under "warranty".

Star Rooter came the same day that I called them. They checked in with me one-half hour before the plumber arrived. Eric was prompt and courteous. He sized up the problem quickly, and within an hour had the main sewer line cleared. I bought a new laundry tub, but I didn't have all of the parts, so he went and got what was missing. He also suggested putting in additional shut off valves, so we did. They charged $205 for snaking the drain and $220 for installing the laundry sink. They gave me a 10% discount for using Angie's list. All and all it was a good experience.

We had a significant blockage in our drains which was causing backup in our bar sink in the basement. We made a call on Friday and Erik showed up on Monday (it wasn't an emergency) and he cleared up the drains for us and even offered us a treatment to use to keep the drains running smoothly from now on. Erik was courteous, conscientious and professional. He made sure all was running smoothly before leaving. My husband and I had put off the problem until we no longer could out of fear of cost but it was not overly expensive and it was $200 well spent!

I noticed a leaking faucet that was dripping through the floor into the basement. It was early on Sunday, and I found two companies that worked. I called Star Rooter. They found someone who could help me. We used our phones to take picutres of the parts that were leaking. He bought the parts, showed up and took care of it. The whole ordeal was over in an hour. Absolutely wonderful!

Erik came the same day that we called for help. He was friendly and professional. He assessed the situation then told me what the cost would be before providing any work. After that was agreed upon, he went to work with his machine. The clog was taken care of within a short time. We ran some water to make sure everything was okay. He cleaned up after himself, and then we finished the paperwork. I think everything went as well as it could have.

Extremely well. The owner, Jeff, was willing to give me a good, and very fair, estimate over the phone based on my description of the problem. Eric, the technician, arrived promptly, accomplished the work successfully, cleaned up very well, and charged me the amount of the estimate. And the cost was well less than other estimates. Very pleased overall.

It went extremely well. The owner promptly returned my initial call to determine what I needed and promised to have someone come out on the date I requested. He was very interested to learn of his excellent rating on Angie's List and told me that I qualified for a 10% discount as a member. I originally was only going to have the secondary waste line cleaned (we have a main line to the road and a second line to our carriage barn). However, I was so pleased with Star Rooter Plumbing's (SRP) work and got such a reasonable quote that I decided to have additional work done. The price for the drain cleaning was $175 with my Angie's List discount. I was quoted an additional hour ($85) for the garbage disposal/under-sink replumbing and one hour for the faucet installation. I then decided to have the main waste line (to the road) cleaned as well. Although, the replumbing was more complicated than originally estimated and took an additional hour, SRP did not charge me for that hour. It was by then quite late, so we opted to complete the master waste line cleaning until a later date. I have been promised a reduced rate for that visit. Overall, I could not be more pleased with SRP's service and pricing. The serviceman was extremely polite and pleasant, highly professional, and very skilled. He not only completed the work well -- he also cleaned up so thoroughly that I thought he had washed the floor and the tiling under the sink. They shone. I give Star Rooter Plumber 5 stars and two thumbs-up, and recommend them without reservation to anyone who needs a plumber. They are the only plumbing service I will ever use. I understand that they do HVAC work, as well, and will certainly have them back for that.

I had the first appointment scheduled on Wed. at 4:30. I got a call at 4:25 saying they couldn't make it. More warning would've been nice so I wouldn't have need to leave work early. We scheduled the appointment the next day at 5:00. Jeff came out and was very nice and only needed about 10 minutes to look at the job. He took my information and said he would send me an estimate. After a week and no estimate I sent an email and called and left a voicemail and still no response. Now I have to line up more companies to come out and give an estimate.

I had about 1-2" of water in my basement. I called and in less than 1 hour Eric was at the house. Took him 5 minutes to determine that the sewer line was backed up. He pulled out a bunch of roots that had grown into the line. He then brought in the camera and showed me the complete line and where he had cut out the roots. Everything took about an hour. He even gave me a free analysis of my water pressure. Overall Star Rooter Plumbing was excellent and I would recommend them.

Guys arrived promptly on Sunday morning and assessed the situation. After a brief look at what was needed I was quoted an estimate and the gentlemen promptly got to work. Quite a few roots were pulled up with the snaking but everything was neat and cleaned up upon completion. Jeff then went the extra mile and ran a scope in the drain, as with the amount of roots removed, he was concerned there may be other issues like a collapsed pipe or large invasive tree roots where my galvanized met up with the clay tile or at the clay tile joints. We discussed options for the future of the line and I would happily have them back again for ANY plumbing issues.
Description of Work: Snaked 6 inch main sewer drain for approximately 60 feet from the house to the street, then scoped it to check for any more serious problems that could cause me trouble down the road.
