They responded quickly, found the problem (it was not a typical issue), and fixed it at a fair price. We would definitely hire them again.

We called our regular plumber who advised he didn't do sewer cleaning and advised us to check Angie's List. We did that and decided to try Ricks Sewer & Drain Service. I called Rick first thing Friday AM and he said he already had four jobs but would get to us ASAP. He said he would call from the job prior to us to let us know when he wold arrive as he understood our urgency. Rick called us around noon and said he'd be here around one pm. He was punctual, surveyed the problem, got his equipment and proceeded to clear our line from our house to the street. (Too nasty to describe.) He then had us run water in the tub and flush all commodes. Hurray, all plumbing drained properly and we were ready to go. Rick cleaned up and advised me of chemicals I could put in the clean-out plug regularly to prevent recurrence from plugs and tree roots. He only charged $140 for all his work (a national chain charged us $400 for the same work 2 years ago). We will use Rick again and recommend him to our friends and to Angie's members.
Description of Work: The sewer drain going from our house to the main in the street became clogged suddenly Thursday evening. Commodes wouldn't flush and showers/tubs wouldn't drain. Clean-out plug blew off (ugh).

Called Rick to fix a broken off septic tank clean out. I was also having an issue with a blockage in the septic tank due to the recent heavy rains. Rick came out the next morning, assessed the work, had the parts ready and all work was done within an hour. I will call him again for any of my plumbing needs. Thanks Rick for a job well done at a fair price.

Called day before to schedule service, he showed up on time with his son and they were very professional and helpful. He even charged less than I was quoted as he said problem was not as severe as he thought. We plan to use them for all our future plumbing needs. Ethical and honest and they do a great job. Another company had quoted us 800.00 DOLLARS to replace the faucet. Never again will I even consider using someone else before Rick's again. So refreshing to have someone honest you can trust! Thank you for such a great job!

Called him up to schedule appointment in morning. Didn't expect as fast a response; showed up in less than an hour. Had no water flow into tank. Rick found other problems, but main problem was burred supply line and debris. Fixed it all, and fee was much less than we anticipated. Found an additional small leak after he left, so I called him and he came back and fixed that (the corroded bolts). Only charged me for parts on that visit. Professional and polite, fully described what problems were. We now have a new family plumber!
Description of Work: Replaced stop valve washer, debur supply line, replace bad flapper, and replace fill valve. Also replaced to corroded tank bolts and tank seal ring.

I called Rick late one afternoon. He said he would be by first thing in the morning, and he was. My problem wasn't urgent. I had a toilet that had been on and off slow flushing for years. I had thought I had a drain problem. I almost was ready to go buy a snake, and do it myself. I'm glad I didn't. Problem turned out to be an old broken part from the back of the toilet restricting the water flow within the toilet itself. I would have wasted a lot of my time. Rick did a great job.

I called Rick on the morning of March 12th about the slow drainage of our kitchen sink. He arrived later that morning as he said he would and routed the kitchen drain pipe. He checked the drain pipe under the house to assure that the router had reached the main drain pipe. When checking the drainage from the sink he noticed that the water in the left sink drained slower than the right sink and checked the drain under the counter that connected the left sink to the right sink (Ahead of the "P" trap) and found additional blockage in that section of the drain pipe that he cleared. Rick completed the tasks quickly and professionally. The price was very reasonable.

First time in 10 years that it's worked like new! So impressed with his work and locating problem quickly, fast response to phone calls, professional, and extremely nice. Called him a second time to install shut off valves under the sink. Took him no time at all. Prices very reasonable too. This needs to be your plumber!

Not much to say. He was quick, professional and kept the house clean. He also gave me some tips on doing some of the work myself in the future. I do have to say the man they sent out was named Dale (884-1798). I would definitely ask for him. Smart, quick and interesting to talk to.

Our sewage pipe on the outside had been cut by Charter Cable when they came out to hook up something for us. Not only did Rick fix the problem, but he worked with me while I worked with Charter in getting the issue corrected. But above that the most impressive thing he did outside of quality work is that he came out on Easter Sunday.

Talked to Rick on Sunday afternoon and work was done Monday morning. The sewer drain line was clogged in one of our rental properties. We have used Rick several times over the past 10 years. He is always skilled, professional, prompt and very reasonable. He is available 7 days a week. We would never use anyone else for this type of work.

I called Rick this morning because the faucet in my tub has been leaking. He said he'd probably be able to get to it this afternoon and he would call me. He asked me to decribe the problen, and what brand and type faucet it was, and told me he had the parts he would need in stock in his van. At around 3pm he called me to let me know he could come by in about 30 minutes. He arrived as promised. He looked for the main water shutoff in the front yard but could not locate it, but since it was the hot water valve that was leaking he shut off the water at the hot water heater instead and completed the repair in a matter of minutes. I then asked about several slow running drains, from which he removed large hair clogs. He also advised me with some very specific information on how to go about fixing two other issues for which he did not have parts on hand (a shower with low water pressure and a kitchen sink sprayer that does not switch water flow correctly from flowing through the faucet to flowing through the sprayer). He struck me as competent, honest, responsive and the type of plumber who actually repairs the exact issue at hand without turning a job into something bigger than it needs to be - exactly the type of plumber I was looking for.

I called Rick's around 9 a.m. and he showed up, complete with a fully stocked supply truck, within a hour of me having placed the call. He touched base with me while he was in-transit so that I would know when to expect him. He was pleasant, professional and quick. I couldn't ask for more. If I have any more problems like this one I plan to use Rick again.
Description of Work: Unclogged and very stubborn toilet blockage and did it in a heartbeat.
