Very Happy with the Service and Price was so reasonable I felt it necessary to Tip the guy.. Yes people Tip your service People. They don't make as much as you think And you never know when You may need them again John was Prompt within the time Scheduled was very courteous Because my drain vent was to high on the roof he was forced to Snake the drain under the sink threw the trap. Because the clog was stubborn he had to take apart the drain snake it out 4 times before it finally decided to Clear. Spent an hour more then he thought he would and only asked for $10 more then i was quoted which was more then Fair

Description of Work: Cleaned out main drain line and an extra drain line from a bathroom. They kinda wanted to stop and I had to keep them going until it was actually cleaned out. They were good, but I had to closely test the work to confirm that it was done.

Description of Work: They showed up exactly on time. The rooter went through my pipe once and was not satisfied with how well the pipe was draining so he changed the end tool and ran it through again. I live in an old house with small pipes and the drain is now flowing better than ever before. I will use them again when I need them.

They saved our lives! LOL After repeated attempts to unclog our bathroom plumbing (toilet and bathtub), my husband had me call American Rooter. The receptionist was efficient and friendly. She explained they had a full schedule and were swamped with calls that day, so it may be late in the day when they could come out. (HOORAY....same day!). The driver was here a few minutes early. He worked hard to get the job done and that took awhile. He was friendly and quite good at what he does. We were THRILLED that they were willing to take our situation into consideration and make sure they got to us the same day!

The gentleman was very friendly and courteous. He let my husband and I know that we also had an additional problem going on under the house with our bathtub draining directly onto the ground. He stated we had a lot of water sitting under the house and would need that cleaned out before it could be repaired. He was able to give us a reasonable quote of how much it would cost to fix it and recommended a company that would help with the cleanup. He also provided us with a $100 coupon off for this company. I would recommend them to anyone who asked.
Description of Work: Cleaned out our waste lines under the house. He took approximately 1 1/2 hrs to do this as we have really old plumbing and it was very bad.

I called American Rooter at 9am to schedule an appointment. I was told they may not be able to get me in the same day, but they would check. Sure enough, 90 minutes later, they called and said they were on the way. They arrived at my home within a couple minutes of my own arrival. The serviceman determined the problem, pulled out his snake, hooked it up, and had the drain unplugged within 15 or so minutes. He was very professional and friendly; not overly talkative or assuming of the problem that caused the clog. I rated the price good and not excellent, just because it would be nice to have a different schedule of rates (like a 30 minute rate vs a 60 minute rate). The price given, though, makes sense and did not seem out of the ordinary.

septic tank

The serviceman did an excellent job. He cleaned tank after he pumped it which wasn't done the last time we had it pumped by another company several years ago. When he arrived he was careful not to drive on our lawn even though the tank was on the other side of the house from available parking. He was very polite and personable. This company also had the most reasonable quote in the area for our size tank. We definitely will call this company when it is time to have the septic pumped again.
Description of Work: They pumped a 1500 gallon septic tank.

Great! I am very pleased with American Rooter employee's professionalism!
Description of Work: The drain was clogged. I had a plumber come out 3 months ago, and it backed up again this month. Instead of calling the same company this time, I searched Angie's List. I am very pleased with the service American Rooter provided. I was shown where the clog was and how to clear it myself when it happens again!
