Plumber came thee hours late and quoted me $775.00 to replace a hose bib. I told him that sounded high, he told me hose bibs are $275.00 alone, the rest is labor. I looked up the price of a hose bib, mmmm....yeah it’s only $10.00. I canceled the job and the plumber cane to my house the next day and harassed me,..he wanted to know why I canceled the job. I’m home alone with three kids getting bullied by a plumber at Roto-Rooter. Several hours their sister restoration company called me and said the state was concerned with my flooding and mold from my recent need of a hose bib. Our basement didn’t flood and this company tried to represent themselves as the state! I did get the job done by a certified plumber from ACE, total cost $275.00. So...Roto-Rooter upbid by $500.00 and harassed me. Don’t be this companies next mark, they are crooks!

Description of Work: This service was performed in a rental home. The renter called Hoffman Inc Roto Rooter in SLC, UT because the toilet continued to run after flushing. Roto Rooter came, tightened a valve, was there for approximately 15-20 minutes and charged $150.00. The renter had to pay at the time of service. When she presented the bill to homeowner he called the company to see what the 150.00 was for as the statement is not itemized. The phone call was frustrating as the person at Roto Rooter would not answer any questions or give out prices. We then tried to email the company and left a message on the1- 800 number. No response in two months time. Finally this week I got through to an actual person and after having to threaten reporting them to the Better Business Bureau she said the 150.00 was for running a snake line. Why would they run a snake line for this problem? Obviously they wanted to charge 150.00 for something. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!

They sent out a trainee who didn't know where to start clearing our garbage disposal drain so he tried to enter via several different pipes. Nothing worked so he called his supervisor who mcae to our home appx 30-45 minutes later. The supervisor scolded the trainee and showed him where to enter the main pipe under a completely different cabinet next to the kitchen sink cabinet. They then inserted a water pressure hose and turned in on full blast. I went downstairs into our family room and saw water pouring out of our ceiling. Running upstairs I told them to stop. The Supervisor came downstairs to look and said that there was nothing he could and said he knew some guy at another company that would fix our family room ceiling for appx $1000. The Supervisor left. The trainee said we still owed them $200. They left. This was my first experience with angie's List and have Never Returned! My home is located on the est side of the valley in Olympus Hills.
Description of Work: The came out to unplug water backing up from our kitchen sink garbage disposal.

It turned out great. However, the price was a little on the high side. I may look around in the future for other companies that are cheaper that to just as good work.

It turned out really well, so far. It was a good experience. They were really efficient. They called the city to make sure they got the sewer line out here and they also gave me a warranty certificate. I felt confident and happy because they made the process easier for us.

Sewage began bubbling out of the toilet, the bath tub, leaking out of the washing machine, and the house was flooding! They were there within an hour, and it took approximately 4 hours to fix the problem and for them to be gone. No issues or recurrence since the repair. Excellent job!!
Description of Work: They found a clog (dishrag and baby wipes) in the main line of the septic system after we moved into a new house. They released the clog 170 ft down, and we have had no issues since.

The guys that came out were very thorough, even though they could not find the problem. Our basement has not flooded since, so I am at a loss for what had happened down there. I trust that Roto-Rooter didn't find any problems with the plumbing because there were no problems. They did a great job following up afterwards, to make sure the problem didn't arise again.
Description of Work: We called Roto-Rooter out to check on our basement that had flooded. After taking a close look at all of the plumbing in the basement, they could not figure out what made it flood.

The work was done promptly. However, they asked my husband about putting Root X in the line and he declined. They came in and asked me without telling me that he had declined. The Root X was an additional $132.00. Also their price in 2003 for the same service was $99.75 and it was $219.75 this time. This was an unreasonable increase for the same service.

Description of Work: They fixed the frozen pipes. Then 3 months later, they unclogged the drain. They also put up more beams to support the sink area.

They were very professional and clean. The only thing I didn't like was that their cell phone kept going off, so they took to longer to get the job done. Otherwise, they did excellent work.

I noticed they had a time frame instead of an exact time which was an inconvenience. I also thought that the price was a little high for fifteen minutes worth of work. However they took the effort to make sure he didn't leave a mess, which was nice.
