Fanti Sewer & Drain Pros

What a life saver. We were having 20 people over for Christmas and our main line drain clogged the day before. Found Drain King on Yelp and liked what others had to say. Gave them a call and Rob was here within the hour, snaked the drain and saved the day, and at a reasonable price. These guys care about customer service.

Came promptly and snaked my main sewer line than was causing a backup up into the bath. After inspection he explained what the problem was, and that my cleanout was not bidirectional but he would be able to get the snake up the other way, which he did.

He noted I have tree roots in the drain line and suggested I replace the cleanout with a better one and have the roots cleared, which I will certainly ask him back to do at a later day.

Nice guy, straight forward prices - I will use him again and recommend him to my friends.

I called Drain King to open my clogged main line. The owner Rob came out on the job. He was very professional and friendly. They got the job done fast and their price was great. He also explained a problem we have with root intrusion and what needs to be done to permanently fix the problem. All with no pressure. Will call again.

my kitchen sink is clogged and I tried everything myself and I decided to go to yelp find some help. Drain King came within one hour and after 30 min, my kitchen sink is unclogged and he cleaned all the mess. And he only charged 50 which is really a reasonable price. Thanks for great work!

Thanks Rob! Drain King is the best! Rob is polite, efficient and pays attention to detail. And the cost was so reasonable...what a blessing.

Short story
1. Quoted for $56 charged $300 for the exactly job I asked
2. Did poor job. Diagnose sewage line breakage but did not locate it.
3. Did not leave invoice or receipt.
4. After 1 month conversation I was not able to get invoice from them. They recognize my number and just don't talk to me.
5. Left a bit mess. Not much though but if I did not give them a towel it would be more. Still there were the messiest of several plumbers I had.

Conclusion: Avoid

Long story.

I had a suspicion that a sewage line is broken (from other plumber). I called them and was quoted $56. I told them that I don't have blockage but I need a plumber to run the camera through the sewage line. Repeated that several times because quote looked too low and rating is very high.
They came snaked the drain even thought I told them that I need a camera in (yeah, right, the other plumbers are stupid). After half an hour decided finally to put camera in. They diagnosed the breakage but did not bother locate it even though I asked about it at the beginning. They asked about old towels ... Huh? Then the price came up. I asked why so high he explains that he spent 1.5 hour and did snake the drain (I did not ask for snaking I insisted that I did not need it) the camera take 15 minutes and the rest of the time walking around and ""analyzing"" the problem.
Then I needed invoice for my home warranty. I was talking to them for 6 weeks. I was not able to get an invoice or receipt from them. Probably this service did not end up in a book. That may explain the ""affordability"".

Had a clogged drain. ""King"" came over, explained the issue, explained both short term solution and long term and fixed it! Nice and easy and priced just right! Highly recommended.

If you're looking for an affordable plumber who can make things work according to your picky plans...Rob's the guy. My husband and I are building a brand new master bath and we had some logistical issues on how to connect the new plumbing to existing water/sewer lines. We met with at least 8 other companies to get bids and ideas on what to do (Dempster, EJ plumbing, Water Quality, Quality Plus, AAA etc.) The prices ranged from $3k (AAA) to $22k (EJ) . **sidenote: seriously, $22k from EJ Plumbing!!! How can they justify so much?!

In the end we went with Rob and Drain King because he seemed to know what he was talking about the most and honestly, I just got a very vibe from him than the other people that came by. His price was really close to the cheapest and his team got the job done in 2 weeks. Cut the concrete slab to add new piping, installed new shower, vanity, toilet and tub. Nick and the other guys were there almost always on time.

The reason I had to -1 star: not licensed, Rob is never on time, they left a pile of wood in front of my house, the 2 vanity sink plumbing were too close together so my husband had to redo some of it, and the rainfall shower piping was crooked.

Nothing to be too upset over so it's no big deal. You get what you pay for and The Drain King was a great deal. I'd definitely recommend them.

I'm 100% sure Rob and Nick will know who this is when they read my review :)

The good: Rob seems like an honest guy and knows his craft.

The bad: Not licensed, takes multiple days of constant telephone calls to get a return call (see details below).

I had a sewer backup and needed to opted to replace my sewer line. After contacting The Drain King, the dispatcher told me that Rob would come out in between jobs during the day and look at my property and give me a quote without me needing to be present. At the end of the day, I had to call back and see what happened -- the dispatcher told me that Rob did not go out to my house yet and would be able to go that evening. To his credit, he did show up and give me a very competitive bid for replacing my sewer line. He explained that he would do the job that cheap because he is not licensed and I would need to pull the permits. Not a problem, I told him. He then told me he would be able to start the job in 2 days. This is where the lack of responsiveness begins. I called his secretary back several times, leaving messages and requests for Rob to call me back to confirm the plans for work. 4 days passed before he finally called me, by which time I had already found another licensed contractor to do the work.

Not sure how busy Rob's schedule is, but clearly, he and his secretary don't have time to respond to all of their customers in any kind of acceptable time frame. I'm sure some customers do get timely responses, and had he responded to me as promised, I would have hired him. But be careful - no license means potential liability problems for you, and communication might be an issue too.

Honest, hardworking, punctual, friendly, and reasonably priced. Fixed our drain, clogged by shifted pipes. Provided very useful advice for future repairs. Charged a fraction of the rate quoted by Mr. Rooter. We're repeat customers, for sure.
