Review and analyze now for company Rooter Solutions Plumbers San Diego and provide the analysis in the discussed format for the following reviews: '''Best customer service! We called in the morning and they were here a few hours later. Tried their best to help us but ended up needing to do more work! They powered through and fixed our issue! Definitely appreciated Morgan's professionalism and thoroughness! Very kind! Will most definitely recommend to our friends and family! I highly recommend Rooter Solutions.
They're professional, courteous, and consistent with their work. Morgan has been EXTREMELY helpful in helping us figure out our plumbing issues.
We've had multiple visits from various plumbers to address the problem we've been having with our shower and sink clogging up simultaneously. When Morgan came, he not only helped us get our pipes to drain again, but he did so with kindness and understanding in addressing all the questions we had.
Thank you, Morgan, for taking care of us! Total set up . I called for a simple drain to be unclogged .
Young man comes out , starts snaking , messes around for 10 minutes and says he thinks there are roots clogging the pipe And he already called out his supervisor . Sure enough the supervisor comes out with a camera that won't work because of the backed up pipe , tells me I need to spend 950 to power wash the pipe so the camera will work .
About this time I notice the Young man never had a TIP on the snake! Then I asked the young man if he even capped the clean out and checked to see if he actually unclogged the system himself ! He was like no . So they never intended to unclog my pipe ! It's all staged ! Services were declined .
Most people would have got scammed . Nice try Isai Saaib .
By the way the next day George Baird came out and unclogged it in about 7 minutes . He even had a Tip on his snake ! Great and thorough job by Morgan clearing out my shower drain.
Fast response from the company. Morgan was very thorough in his assessment of my plumbing issues and gave a fair estimate.
Thank you for your prompt response! Our tub and shower drain needed to be unclogged. We called Rooter Solutions and they scheduled us for the next day.
Ryan came out and spent a couple hours clearing the clog. He was super professional, knowledgeable and cordial.
The problem is fixed. They honored the $54 coupon.
Will definitely use them again. Most fabulous couple of guys I could ever imagine.
Frank and Christian.....: they showed up past work hours at my Sam diego home.... We're so cool about all things......
did an easy fix for me at no charge........ frank was wonderful.......
I recommend this Plumbing company over any other .... And I will be sure to call frank for any other concern...
as my landlord will now do after chatting with him. Jill Davies South Park I had Rooter solutions come out for a clogged line.
I had a coupon that they would clear the line with a snake for $64. They were attentive and came out immediately.
The technician snaked the line and said he couldn't get through... and a field service rep showed up.
They tried to sell me a $40,000 "plumbing repair" which was out of the question I said sorry I'm just going to have to live with clogged plumbing. I paid them $64 and they went on their way.
I received multiple messages from the marketing office, wanting to know how was satisfied with their service. Well the technicians were nice and friendly and if the $64 had actually done something it would've been a bargain.
The next day I had a different plumber come out who was local and for $125. He snaked the line.
It's been fine ever since. We requested service for a clogged kitchen drain.
Ryan came out this afternoon and literally spent hours working on our drain! He was very courteous, prompt and knowledgeable. Our drain was terribly clogged and difficult to clear.
He told us what he was doing each step of the way. He was persistent and was finally able to clear it! We really appreciate all he did and the time he spent! A great guy! Jojo was terrific.as were members of the team who did a big job at our 100 year old home.
It was overwhelming but they kept it pleasant and professional. Don't hesitate to contract their services.
Joseph just left my house. He was fantastic.
He was fast, friendly and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend this company.
He came right away and got the job done quickly. I also felt very comfortable with him in my house.
He also recommended some things to do that would help me in the future with my drains I had a blocked toilet and called this company. Frank and Aisa came out and quickly snaked the drain pipe.
It cleared the line, but they recommended that I might want to replace my faulty low-quality toilet. Thet were efficient, clean, and best of all, honest! W.
Anderson, Carmel Valley Very professional company from the beginning call with the office to the inspection with the tech ! We called this company on Friday 8/25 to schedule their drain sewer cleaning coupon of $54 Next day Saturday morning 8/26 gave me 30 min heads up before they arrived ! they did way more than what we thought! they did everything they said on the coupon they advertise and even more ! They spend 2 hours ( 2 guys ) and they explained me everything they going to do! Than the manager came by with the camera and showed me what it looks like ! I was amazed with their machines and equipment that they used during the inspection, They gave me a recommendations for my house that I will consider doing with them in the near future! Price for the estimate was good and straightforward with no games of sales people ! Which I loved! Thank you guys! We called Rooter Solutions out to fix our upstairs toilet that had overflowed - they diagnosed the problem after snaking the drain -- our 40 year old toilets simply needed replacement. Their initial diagnosis was very reasonably priced.
We purchased 3 new toilets and they came back out to replace them, as well as an angle stop, and again, a very reasonable price for labor. Joseph was super sweet and we felt 100% comfortable with him in our home, along with others on his team who came out to help him finish up late on a Friday afternoon.
I'm so happy to find a great team of plumbers, and will definitely reach out to Rooter Solutions again for any future plumbing issues. I originally had this company come out using a weekly coupon to snake & examine a slow drain with their camera.
They were wonderful! Friendly, competent, & it was a great price. Then, another drain stopped working.
So, I called them again. What they found was a serious problem.
My home is 65 years old & had still the original cast iron sewer lines. One had corroded & cracked.
It was leaking under the slab foundation. I got to see everything the camera showed & supervise the job from start to finish at each phase.
My opinions on how I wanted things done were accepted graciously & implemented, while the technical aspects were explained clearly so that I could make informed decisions. Which, as a woman, I found very refreshing.
It seems this kind of problem is their speciality. I was in one of those 'emergency' situations & the work needed to be done immediately.
I must admit the price quote freaked me out. But they folded all the earlier work charges into that total & I didn't have time to go looking for other bids.
So, I signed with them to do it. The old adages "You get what you pay for" & "You pay for what you get" both applied here.
The team excavated under my home thru tunnel openings they jackhammered out of the slab in my laundry room & an outside walkway as if they were archeologists searching for Pharaoh's Tomb. They ran into many & varied unexpected problems but just handled them as part of the deal.
They also managed to avoid damaging as much of my floor & wall tiling as possible & protected the areas they worked in from unnecessary damage. Using the most modern tech, they recreated a new sewer main, replaced all 4 sink, 2 toilet, & 2 shower drains from UNDERNEATH the slab! Only the back-to-back toilet closets required removing some existing tile floor inside the house in one bathroom.
And they kept that hole as small as humanly possible. They also brought the main sewer line cleanouts up to the latest building codes with respect to septic tanks.
The new cleanout close to the tank is a "pop-up" so that if the tank ever backs up it will release itself outside, instead of coming into the house. They even made it possible to clear the kitchen & laundry room sink drains thru a second cleanout at the other end of the main without going inside the house.
The concrete installation crew did a wonderful job refilling the holes, too. Fernando helped me arrange for an instant, interest deferred* loan to get the work done, as well.
When all is said & done, I am thrilled by the job they did. All their people were wonderful.
Joseph had been the main lead on this job & I adore his great customer service attitude. There was nothing I needed or wanted that he wasn't ready to do himself or send someone to handle if it wasn't his area of expertise.
As with most such jobs, it took longer than estimated (Murphy's Law applies, & his wife & kids will certainly stop by). I just accepted that fact.
And, there will DUST! Lots & lots of fine, nose-irritating DUST!!! Protect &/or cover EVERYTHING you can, even if you think the dust won't get that far. Have some extra rags available to soak up water in case they are needed.
BTW: *Be aware that deferred interest loans are tricky. If you can't be sure you are able to pay each monthly payment on time & in full, AND pay off the 'balloon' at the end of the deferred period BEFORE the due date they will cost you many times what the job costs, depending on how long it takes you to pay such a loan off.
I knew I was able to set up my future finances so that I could do that. Please READ any such loan contract VERY carefully.
25% or more interest is NOT something you want to be charged! In the process of getting the pipe replaced going into the septic tank. Initially called for a clogged drain and had an amazing technician, Dylan that cleared it out.
This is an ongoing problem with a super old pipe going into the septic tank so it always gets clogged and had plumbers come out and say they'll remove a clogged drain for $69 and then end up charging $250 before leaving. This company was very honest and honored their online special to clear the clogged drain for $55 so my thoughts were that they were going to be fair.
I got a quote to dig up the area and replace the old pipe going into the septic tank for $3,200 with an estimated time of about 2 days. I had a similar quote in the past.
They dig out the area and find that there is concrete patched up around the septic tank that they'll have to chip away. Now the price is $1,000 more, and completion time is the same time as before.
I don't get it. I would like to say the technician that came out to my home.
Dylan was phenomenal customer service excellent service, fast inexpensive reasonable very meticulous. Simply great I highly recommend this company.
This is my second time using them and I've been very happy with every tech that has come to my home, keep up the good work guys. Thank you.
These people were awesome. Super easy to work with and got the job done quickly.
They were honest and didn't charge us a ridiculous price like the first company that came over. This company charged us less than third of the first estimate we received which was almost $30,000.
So if you're looking for a great plumbing company, I highly recommend Rooter Solutions, ask for Gil or Alex. We paid $50k for a project that was started on 3/19/24.
It's 5/13/24 and the job is still unfinished. We've dealt with everyone in the company except the CEO.
They say they're coming and another week goes by. Total scam and we're paying for it.
Close to elder abuse. Beware of these technicians.
Crafty salesmen. Couldn't be happier.
Mark with Rooter solutions is an exemplary plumber. Very knowledgeable, super friendly, and someone that I trust.
We hired them to install a whole home water filter, based on the flyer that they mail to homes in our area, and I'm very happy to have found them.. I was so happy to find an affordable plumber these guys saved me from a ridiculous price someone else wanted to charge me.
I should have checked their reviews BEFORE calling them. I was, like others, being drawn by their advertised drain cleaning coupon $54.
Little do I know I ended up paying $550 and problem still not solved. The technician is not skilled and the manager is a sales person like another reviewer commented.
After arrival, the technician snaked the pipe and told me it is not working. He called the manager who came with a camera and told me I need to hydro jet, or the drain will be clogged again.
I wasn't sure at the moment but was scared/worried into agreeing to do the hydro jet, hoping it will buy me at least a year's smooth running pipe. I watched the technician spending about 20 min or so cleaning the pipe and then he told me everything is good.
I didn't see anything come out. He said all gunks are pushed to city sewer.
Right after he left, I am disappointed to find out the drain is still not good. I see small improvements but definitely not draining well.
So I called the office, I was told technician and manager will call me back. NO ONE DID! I didn't use the sink for the night.
The next day, I called office again. By that time.
I am pretty upset and wanted to know if I can cancel the contract, since I was told I have 3 days to cancel if not satisfied. Of course, this won't be easy.
Manager finally called and offered to come back to clean the pipe again. He has excuses like they were busy the day before, the message from office got lost, they were planning to come back to check the pipe the next day etc.
He sounds defensive and hostile and he again being a sales person, talked me into sending another technician to make it right. Guess what? No one called me back and again, I am left in the dark with this drain problem.
The one star is for the office, who at least makes me feel not being threatened or intimidated. Jonathan was the greatest plumber! He was friendly and explained everything to me.
Hector came with him and was a great help. I will always call them if I need anything else.
Mark was great when explaining the price and options for paying. They shown me pictures of my pipes and what had to be done.
Gale Richardson I guess they forget about customer service after they get $16,000 from you, at least that's my experience. I have been waiting on documents from Rooter Solutions to send to my home insurance company for well over a month and have called multiple times to follow up with them to no avail.
I can't make a claim because they have not provided the necessary documents. I was told they would get the documents to me back in September.
I am not pleased. Worst company out there.
They charged me more than the agreed upon price and provided me a detailed invoice with work that was never done. I had half the work done by another handyman.
When I tried to work it out over the phone, no one would call me back. Stay far away from this fraudulent business.
Interesting update. 7/18/23.
Just got off the phone with a supervisor from the California State Licensing Board. Rooter Solutions does NOT have a valid and current license as plumbers.
They will be receiving a warning letter from CSLB. If they continue to operate unlicensed, they will be fined.
I encourage everyone who even considers using this company to find someone else. If you must call them, check their plumbing license status first.
They are the worst. They broke sprinklers while putting in drains or just took sprinklers out and they said they will put them back they just put them in the ground connected to nothing.
Installed drains that are just in the ground going no where filling up with water that doesn't connect to anything. Damaged the whole yard!! Fraudulent company.
Showed the boss how the pipes are just sitting in the soil not connected to anything and got a silent response just stared at us like it's our fault. No words.
No apologies. No shock.
Is this a real company? Got ancient plumbing? Rooter Solutions Plumbers of San Diego will deliver the experience and hard work required to save your old home. Housing value in the region remains high and strong, so don't let a whole house plumbing nightmare negate appreciation in the value of your asset.
Yes the job can be costly when necessary, but I feel confident that Rooter Solutions was fair with their contracts for the large scope of work completed. Also note their great customer service and skill ability to problem solve wacky old plumbing- this is exactly why we are repeat customers.
Morgan is our go-to-guy for every project. My family appreciates Morgan's genuine care for his customers during extremely stressful circumstances that come with owning an old home.
He put a smile on my Father's face each morning he arrived and after every long hot day, busting his butt to deliver top quality work- - and that is priceless because my Dad rarely smiles! Thank you Morgan, Jesse, and the whole Rooter Solutions team! Kitchen sink was draining slow. Standard issue on an older home.
Grease accumulation over time, regardless of how careful you may be, adds to the clogging of the pipes. Scheduled a 2 hr window and the scheduler called right at the end of the window to proactively say the guys in the truck where on the way.
Very courteous. The guys showed up were respectful, courteous, proficient and took care of the problem at the special ad rate.
I had some other non-urgent fixes they gave quotes on. I definitely respect their honesty.
There appears to be some room on prices so don't feel pressured. They were very good at providing information and NOT hard selling.
Very honorable. I am very comfortable endorsing this professional plumbing firm.
I rarely write reviews because I am incredibly busy and I forget or just don't make time for them. However, I have to write a review for rooter solutions.
They were amazing from start to finish. My mom used their company a few months ago and felt like they were honest and fair.
They fixed one thing that was broken so she called them back out to look at her garbage disposal, which was done correctly it is just small, and they didn't charge her anything. Fast forward 3 months when I needed help.
I called then because my mom was so happy with them and Pablo came out, which happened to be my moms plumber, and he recognized her, and offered to place a camera free to see what the damage was or what needed replaced/fixed. It turned out to have cracks and breaks all throughout (this house was built in 1960s).
We then discussed our options and I had a huge project all of a sudden. To put it mildly, I was stressed and disappointed but this company really was wonderful.
I got financing through them immediately and they started the next day. They had to jack hammer through concrete in my garage and dig up my whole front yard which was turf, to lay all new piping and they had to drill through my bathroom to replace all the existing pipes as well.
It was a mess. However, these guys worked so hard and efficiently and I basically had all that work done in a week.
Minus a few things here and there that they will need to finish this week but everything is livable :). Honestly I would NEVER call anyone else.
They truly did seem to care and were honest from start to finish. They showed me everything and gave me options and scenarios without pressuring me into anything.
Mark and Pablo were who I spoke with mostly but their entire team is amazing!!!! Thank you for the least amount of stress in such a big project and decision. Incredible service.
I was able to set up an appointment very quickly. Ryan arrived on time, he was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly.
He was able to solve our drainage issue. The pricing of the service was as advertised as well.
Called RS for our clogged drains. The technician Guillermo was super friendly and very knowledgeable.
He quickly got them unclogged and was very respectful in keeping our house floors he even wore booties on his shoes. "It drains or you don't pay" is their slogan, and they really mean it.
I thought I'd try them to clear two area drains after receiving their Spring Savings drain cleaning offer in the mail. When I called, I was given a same-day appointment ...
and Junior arrived about 2 hours earlier than scheduled. He tried snaking the lines but hit obstacles, namely the 20+ year old lines had been invaded by roots.
Another tech, Blake, confirmed this with video of the lines. Since they couldn't clear the lines, there was no charge for the service call.
Dylan M. did an amazing job during my plumbing nightmare! Came over timely on a weekend and assessed and addressed the plumbing issues right away.
Definitely recommend for anyone who experiences any and all plumbing problems. Could NOT recommend and here is why: You'll want to save yourself some stress and just call another company for your plumbing issues.
Really pathetic communication skills. And a complete NO show or call for the second part of our job to finish.
We are seniors, and they came to fix a sewer venting pipe that had broken apart in the attic, causing a bad smell in the bathroom. That went really well, or so we thought.
(More on that later) We paid them, however, we still had a horrid smell in the bathroom the next day. When I told them, they said they were going to come back, so I ask to be put on the schedule with a 6 days advance request.
Incidentally, they had to take out the entire bathroom sink to access and repair site and glue the sewer venting pipes. So we haven''t had a sink in our bathroom for about 2 weeks.
We made a plan for them to come back and fix the hot/cold pipes in the bathroom so we could put the sink in, and recheck the smell and trim the pipe on the roof. They said to just let them know when to come back.
CREEPY, I can see they are reading my messages but not confirming our appointment I am trying to make 6 days in advance. Then, the morning of, they randomly text and say they'll be here on here between 1-2pm.
I tell them GREAT!! WTH? They pull a NO SHOW, NO CALL. No bathroom sink for us...
for who knows how much longer. Lame, rude and unprofessional.
I have been dealing with "Christian", who is the General Manager. UPDATE: CALLED ANOTHER PLUMBER WHO JUST LEFT.
Turns out ROOTER SOLUTIONS plumber didn't connect one of the stacks by gluing or repairing it in the wall~~~ so sewer gas was/is still pouring into our bathroom. So it appears they did kind of a crappy job~ and just left us to deal with it.
Save yourself some aggravation~ I wish I had. Memo & Frank came out on an emergency notice to assist with a draining issue.
Frank and Memo were able to identify the issue, develop a solution and we're able to mitigate the issue expeditiously. We are grateful for their expertise in the field and being able to ensure our family has a functioning shower.
Update... I found an honest plumber who got the job done in 3 hours.
Total job cost 80% less than Rooter Solutions. Unless you want to pay their outrageous rates, stay far away from these guys.
Lost my main sewer line to the septic tank. Called Rooter solutions, they said they could have some one out that day to look at the problem.
Very friendly people answering the phones, very professional. Special Kudos to Alejandro and Andrey.
They stayed out in the cold and dark to make sure we could use the house plumbing that evening. This is after I told them they could go home.
All said my experience with Rooter solutions was vey positive. I will use them again and recommend their services.
TY El Cajon I can only praise the Rooter solution team in the highest terms. Mark Junior and Mark Senior deserve special recognition for their excellent, sincere, and professional customer service.
Both have extensive plumbing knowledge. Well done! Give them a call!! Had the best customer service from Joeseph Eickhoff, will definitely request him for future plumbing needs.
Larceny at heart - right here in America. On November 16, 2022, I hired Rooter Solutions Plumbers CA lic #1071065 619-732-0410, to clear a clogged drain.
Then they did a camera scope, thru a vent pipe and found a collapsed cast iron drain pipe in the front yard. And proposed a partial repair for $15.350.79 Last week a big tree fell on my house, and ServPro from Mercury insurance sent out American Leak Detectors to the job.
Guess What?? The sewere is in great shape for 86 feet to the sewere in the street.--Contacting ClSB, re fraud, and Yelp re: being taken for a sucker. FYI, friends and Neighbors.
Resentful In Escondido, but it's going to be fun and not spoil our day. Posted 2/8/2023 Next door This company is in the business of ripping off every customer who calls them.
They are in the business of up selling for needless repairs by saying you need this and this to fix a plugged toilet instead of just fixing it. Oh and if you need financing their ad says 0% for 24 months when actually they only do 18 months.
When asked why they give a lame excuse that they don't know why the ad says that. Please please don't call them as they will only rip you off! Please everyone be aware of this company what they did to me is criminal! My shower start draining little slow my son came visit and said mom water is running down the driveway so I figured clogged drain.
I just received a coupon mailer with a rooter solution coupon for snake and camera total $ 54.99 so I called the same night and made a appointment for the very next day the technician arrived in the morning I told him the issue and he said no problem it's the sewer line and they will snake it well half a hour or so they knock on the door and say they can't not get through because the pipe is broken and they have to dig to get to the pipe so the can cut it and go directly through the pipe and that it will coast $ 4700.- after some discussion we agreed on $ 4000.- long story short after few hours they said they still can't do it and that they will come back the next day with more powerful machine remember we can't flush toilets or take a shower or use any water at the house. Next morning they came back worked for maybe a hour and got a knock on the door again some new guy i didn't see yet said it's never a good thing if Im here! So I said what now and he said well we have to dig now on the other side of your fence to get to the pipe and that will be $ 7200.- on top of the $ 4000.- and that did not included the actual fixing of the broken pipe so when I asked how much for the pipe and he said well we can't tell you right now so I said ok I can't afford it please leave and they said did someone talked to you about financing and I said please leave and they said you can't afford not to do it! And I said please leave I will get second opinion! Call plumber who came couple of hours later and had it snake out in30 minutes went with camera all the way to the red pipe what I learn was a city pipe so they just digout my yard and wanted to charge me minimum of $ 11000.- for nothing I called and complained they said they sorry and will refund my $ 400.- deposit back but that never happened I end up paying $ 2300.- total which included 475.- for the clogged pipe and camera and the rest for the damage rooter solution created ! We had a slow-draining kitchen sink for weeks.
After we tried several things ourselves, we finally called Rooter Solutions to use their $54.95 coupon. They came out and tried to snake the drain but were also unsuccessful.
Then Christian came with the camera. He was great! He let me watch the screen as he scoped the drain.
I couldn't really tell what I was looking at, but he was real good about explaining it to me. I asked him how he could interpret the images so well, and he said, "12 years of doing this!" He pointed out (on the screen) all the gunk inside the long horizontal run of 2" ABS pipe, and then he showed me where that 2" pipe entered into the main, larger drain.
We are in a manufactured home, and he explained that the drain configurations are often odd in manufactured/mobile homes, and that a long horizontal run like ours is often not strapped up (supported) as well as it should be under the home, and that the horizontal pipe often sags, making it even easier for the gunk to accumulate. The camera showed that the clog was 16' in from the clean-out under the sink.
Christian recommended that we have them hydro-jet the drain(s). We haven't done it yet because hydro-jetting is an expensive service.
I do really appreciate his professionalism and knowledge. He was very patient and offered us some suggestions as well.
I have used these guys previously and found their service and pricing fair. Unlike many plumbers who seem to think they are the only plumbers in the market.
I called them again for a similar issue. However it appears there is a major change in philosophy at this company.
They wanted to charge me $1500 for a simple drain cleaning that was going to take their crew about 1-2 hours. Not only did they ignore their published pricing, but they also failed to offer me any sort of senior discount.
I will no longer be using them for any of my plumbing needs and caution anyone considering to call them to be careful to look out for the "bait and switch". If I could give them 10 stars I would! I called to use their services to unclog my bathtub drain, the lady on the phone was very nice and they were able to see me right away! On a Saturday!! WOW.
Pedro came within 30 minutes of my initial call. Now my tub is draining.
Thank you so much!!!! I highly recommend their services. These guys came 90 minutes after my call.
Clean, thorough, explained everything. Very pleased.
They even threw in a camera view to double check the integrity of the pipes. Pedro is hands down the best plumber in San Diego.
Not just because of his excellent work, but his reliability and kindness towards his customers is what really sets him apart from other companies. My wife called cause of a clogged drain, Pedro took care of the problem in a timely manner, he really came through and met all of our needs.
Thank you so much. I met that Robb Guys on a water damage/sewage project in Moorpark.
He was friendly, reliable knowledgable and professional. One of the things I enjoyed hearing from Robb was a comment he made to the home owner, "I will not stop until your sewage issues are resolved." It was refreshing to hear his level of commitment to the solution he planned to provide.
That Robb guy has exceptional customer service skills and love for solving plumbing problems. Rooter solutions cane back today and it looks like the drain is cleared! Thanks to Brandon, who explained the process and used the right machine for the job.
I would use them again if they sent Brandon and because they corrected their mistakes, thats a trustworthy company. I'm happy to say that my experience with Rooter Solutions was pretty positive, and that they take care of their customers.
Everyone messes us from time to time, and I'm happy to say that Rooter Solutions honors their warranty. Alberto and his team did a great and thorough job to make sure that our situation was taken care of, and Juan did his best to provide a good rate and courteous service.
Overall, Alberto was great to work with, as he communicated very well and was very professional and courteous in our interactions. I'd recommend his workmanship to my friends and neighbors.
Last Saturday, Feb.18, 2023 was the second time I called Rooter Solutions for my plumbing problem. I had a great experience the very first time I called them a couple of years ago.
I saw their $54 coupon on Get One Free magazine, so I called them again for my garbage disposal problem. First, I'd like to compliment Alec, the dispatcher for being polite, friendly, and helpful in answering my questions.
He scheduled a tech to check out my problem. Ryan came on a Saturday and started testing our disposal.
He said that he won't charge us if he can't clear the garbage disposal. He attempted to clear the pipe but could not clear it.
Ryan did not give up, but instead, he dug his hand deep into the disposal and pushed out what felt like accumulated grease. The disposal started working again! Ryan was also friendly and polite, and we would ask for him again, if possible, to service our next plumbing need.
We will definitely call Rooter Solutions again! Keep up the good work, guys! Mark was recommended to me by a friend who had experienced the same problem I had - the need for sewer line replacement in a 1950's home. My friend had nothing but good things to say about her experience - including that Mark was able to accomplish something that other plumbing companies could not.
I called Mark. He was friendly and sent his son, Mark Jr.
out same day. After Mark Jr.
arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see a second Rooter Solutions truck pull up. It was Mark Sr.
They spent a lot of time with me and were very attentive to my questions and concerns. Equally important, Mark did a very comprehensive analysis of my home, the issues and the ways to go about the re-piping.
I had concerns about tearing through new flooring and he was able to prevent that in his plan. The bid from Rooter Solutions was very competitive, the employees who came to the house were friendly and polite.
Mark's extensive plumbing background and ability to explain all the steps in detail gave me great peace of mind. I will definitely suggest Rooter Solutions to other friends.
Just got almost run off the road by one of your vehicles. I was merging onto the 15 freeway with my signal on and your guy came across at least 2 lanes to sped past! He then proceeded to weave in out of the 7am traffic at about 80mph.
I hope wherever he was going was important. We received a coupon in the mail for a $68 drain clean out service from Rooter Solutions.
We had a minor backup in our laundry drain. When the technician started snaking the drain, we suddenly had a major backup.
The company recommended a hydro wash and then did a video look at the sewer lines to the tune of $500. In the end, they recommended repairs ranging from $8000 to $15,000! Needless to say, we got a second opinion from a company who only does pipe inspections and gives you a video of their findings.
They found no issues of concern with our plumbing and sewer lines and gave us a DVD of their findings to prove it. Bottom line....do not let a cheap coupon offer fool you into doing business with a company that you've never used before.
This company cost us an unnecessary additional charge of $432. The pipe inspection was $160.
I would most definitely NOT recommend this company. Be careful with using their coupon since their warranty for 30 days is not honored if you use their special price ! Technician assured me his work has 30 days guarantee, but when I called they said because I used their $58 special to snake the drainage , the warranty does not apply.
They said it is in the contract ! Too bad I did not read the fine prints in the contract and trusted the verbal information. Would not recommend them for this reason and also that I had to call back two weeks after the job.
Called about 3 other drain cleaning services with no straight answer to simple questions such as "assuming it's the most simple drain to clean-- what's the least it will cost to get my drain cleared?" Rooter Solutions answered the question straight away and provided an appointment within a couple hours. Alberto arrived on time, was professional, and went above and beyond to get the drain cleared.
I've dealt with a number of plumbing issues on past properties of mine and this was the most difficult block I've seen to get past. After trying many different approaches, he got the water flowing smoothly again.
He was very respectful and professional and the price was reasonable. Thank you Alberto and Rooter Solutions! Rooter Solutions replaced my 63 year old collapsed sewer line.
The work was done promptly and competently. Friendly and respectful workers.
Finish work to drywall could have been better. But would use them again.
This was our first experience with Rooter Solutions. We were very pleased with the services - especially with Pablo.
Our garbage disposal was backing up & found out our dish washer hose was not functioning properly, this the backup. They let us order the part diectly from LG, saving us a couple hundred dollars.
They were very communicative & replaced the hose quickly & efficiently. We will definately use Rooter Solutions again Juan came to my house within two hours of making an appointment.
The service provided was exceptional, and Juan was very professional. I would recommend this company for your plumbing needs.
I was very impressed & happy with my recent plumbing experience. I had approx.
50 feet of ancient sewer pipe replaced by Rooter Solutions. It was full of holes & roots.
Robin was kind, courteous & very helpful, he explained all of the steps. Isai showed me images from their camera inside the pipe, he helped me understand all of their fancy equipment & the process involved.
They gave me a fair price, treated me with respect & were always considerate. Robin & Carlos were very hard & neat workers & always left my yard so that it was safe.
When they were done it was very nicely put back together. All & all, I wish all plumbers were as courteous, competent & kind as Robin & Isai ! WHAT A NIGHTMARE.
At first, they couldn't unclog our drain. Then they recommended hydro-jetting.
Huge mistake. Sewer water shot out of our bathroom, and flooded most of our downstairs -- forcing us to go through weeks of remediation, insurance hassles, rebuilding estimates, etc.
Only reason I'm not giving them zero stars is because they immediately tried to make it right, booking a flood restoration company, paying for our hotel for three nights, and saying they'll cover the rebuilding costs. Pedro and Pablo are good.
But as for their other workers, watch em like a hawk. I had a clogged toilet that refused to be plunged and called Rooter Solutions who answered my call right away.
The techs who arrived were Orlando and Jesse and they were extremely professional, clean, and knew exactly what needed to be done and they fixed my toilet in no time at all. They went the extra mile and cleaned my toilet and bathroom floor.
I cant say enough good things about the two techs who showed up and how they represented the company they work for. I will be recommending both of them and Rooter Solutions for all my plumbing needs.
Thank you again for going above and beyond to help me. I hired Rooter Solutions to clean out the drain lines under my courtyard.
The tech arrived on time and started the job but on the first line he discovered that the tip had broken off of his rooter machine. He called his boss, Isai, who brought a endoscope-type camera over and sent it down the line that his tech had tried to clean.
He said that there were too many roots for them to clean the line. They charged me $125 and cleaned none of my drain lines.
I've cleaned these lines with a hand snake in the past so I know that they can be cleaned of roots. I'm not a happy customer.
I had a Plumbing emergency on one many properties that we manage all around San Diego area, I called Rooter Solutions and despite being super booked because of their outstanding customer service, they manage to set an appointment in the same day, Edmundo is super friendly and customer service oriented. I am very grateful and extremely satisfied with the exceptional work ethic Rooter Solutions has bestowed upon our tenants.
I highly recommend this company to everyone who needs Plumbing services. Thank you Edmundo you are awesome! God bless you always.
Kind, responsive and true to their word. Good deal on a pipe snake, honored their warranty on a snake that was needed the next day down the line.
Helped us understand what we needed to do and didn't pressure us. They are our plumbers now.
Highly recommend. Hi, just wanted to write a review about my experience with the Rooter Solutions, I have a problem with my kitchen sink, I found this company online, I called and a pleasant voice on the other end by the name of Gloria answer the phone, I explained to her the problem that I have, and she told me that she will sent technicians within and hour and a half or so,.
Technicians Lincoln and Angel shows up , covered their shoes before entering the house, I told Them it's ok, the floor is wet anyways cos of the leakage but they said it ok, they did what they suppose to do in a timely manner and left, very professional and satisfied with their work, I recommend this family oriented company to anyone who needs plumbing service ASAP. Keep on the good work guys.
Satisfied customer. Isai and his team are absolutely amazing !!!!! They educated me on the process didn't try to upsell or pressure me, I was quoted $5800 for a pluming issue by ARS Rescue Rooter but Isai and his team got the job done at $1250.00, made suggestions on maintenance to prevent the issue from returning- They're real down to earth people, Great experience and Thanks for everything !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are really reasonable in there prices was very happy with there prices they did my clogged kitchen sink for $150.00 WOW! I am so impressed with Rooter Solutions! Had a major upstairs tub clog and randomly found them online with that super good price coupon.
Within a couple of hours, Robert (Mendoza) arrived and totally went above and beyond to solve the problem. Not only did he unclog the horrifically clogged tub, but he cleaned my tub too! I fully expected to find a gross, dirty tub (which is how it was originally because of the clogged drain and standing water), but it was sparking clean! Robert was thoroughly pleasant and positive through the whole ordeal.
I'm super impressed with him. Highly recommend! I had an appointment for 10 am on a Saturday, but then I got a call saying that they would come at 2-4 instead due to an emergency with another customer.
My garbage disposal was jammed, and Juan was able to fix that but said that it would probably need to be replaced soon. Not sure how old it is since I rent.
Very friendly guys though. I also got a call from their office afterwards asking how everything was.
Matt and Donell showed up on time and were able to make any needed repairs efficiently! They wore masks and were very respectful to distance according to COVID-19 guidelines. We had an excellent experience! Let's face it, any company advertising a $54 price to root a main line is naturally going to have various restrictions.
Thought I'd try Rooter Solutions postcard deal, but I had the blockage cleared before the guy arrived. He tried to up-sell to Hydro Rooting the main line for $500.
What a joke. We're very familiar with tiny hair-like tree roots that can get into the old main line after a six-month period.
Happily back to our inexpensive, reliable rooter guy to handle those Rooter Solutions was able to schedule service the same day I reached out at a very fair price. The bonus, they sent a very approachable and knowledgeable plumbing tech (Carlos) who readily addressed and resolved my plumbing issue.
He also offered me additional information that I found to be helpful. Thank you Rooter Solutions! I had a badly clogged toilet and was afraid it was going to cost me a lot.
Thankfully Carlos did an amazing job. My $68 coupon was all I needed.
He's honest and got here quickly. He was also very informative which gave me great guidance for the future.
Thank you Carlos for all of your help, I know it wasn't easy. These guys came out to clear a clogged kitchen sink.
They were expedient and proficient. James was courteous, honest and as professional as they come.
Bottom line: I would definitely recommend these guys and will reuse them in the future. It's always nice to have some nice, clean plumbers come out and do a great job.
Thanks Rooter Solutions (Qte) this review is from my 93 old neighbour We contacted rooter solutions pluming from an ad which started saying "It drains or you don't pay" also the ad said", exceptional service guaranteed". We asked them to clear our shower drain the technician said it cost us $54.00, the shower and sink goes into the same bathroom drain which he also snaked the sink drain, and surprsingly he charged us$108.00 and they were told that the drains were cleared.
Two days later the shower drain was clogged up again, my mother called them back and asked if they guaranteed the work because the drain was still clogged, and not cleared they told her there is no guaranteed and the technician would return for an additional cost. Today I called another plumber and he used multiple machine and told us trutfully that it could not be cleared and he also said the reason is because of pipe buildup and he did not charges us a penny.
I believe that the Rooter solution should have been able to afford us an honest answer and not over charged my 93 years old mother for $108.00 for the services not rendered. The second plumber was able to diagnose the problem without the use of a camera he was very knowledgeble and informative with no fee.
I believe that Rooter solutions should have guaranteed their work or refund my mother's money, mistake the ad stated so I rate them with an zero(0) star. (unqte) Carlos Torres helped me and my family.
We couldn't figure out what went wrong we tried using a plunger and snake but nothing worked and we called Rooter Solutions. Carlos Torres was the one who came and he went above and beyond to help us and make sure to fix the damage.
He has amazing customer service and was the best to work with in this situation. I give him 5 stars!! If you use this company ask for Carlos Torres he's the best!!!!! Leo was amazing.
He called in advance with an ETA, was friendly, professional and knowledgeable, and and Isai took care of my problem in no time. Leo then offered to take a look at a small leak I had under a sink and was able to quickly seal and retighten it for no additional charge.
I would highly recommend Leo to take care of you home plumbing needs! Rooter Solutions saved my day! Last weekend I was faced with a clogged sink. I gave it my best shot and found myself covered in water and crud from the garbage disposal.
So I went online calling a few "fix drain" companies. Rooter Solutions was solid and assured they would arrive within 2 hours.
I asked that they do their best to arrive asap and they made it within an hour! Carlos Torres from Rooter Solutions was professional, personable, neat, quick and cleared the drain! Carlos was clear and patient explaining the repair and solution. I will use Rooter Solutions in the future and recommend you do the same.'''.
