Fifteen Dollar Rooter Sewer & Drain Service

These guys were Great ! Another company came first to clear out our main line and quoted me $225. These guys arrived in 45 minutes and charged me $88.

Thanks Benny and Louis

I had a great experience with this outfit. Called to get my kitchen sink fixed/snaked out. Jason was able to clear the line and showed me how to prevent further issues. He was honest and helpful. I asked him to loook at another plumbing issue that two other companies had been out to evalaute only to tell me I had to replumb and remodel the bathrooom, due to a leaking shower control valve.

To my disbelief, Jason pops out the cartridge from the control valve and replaces it with a new one in about ten minutes. I was sold a bill of goods by the other two plumbers when they told me no replacment parts were availble for KOHL. $15, were less expensive then everyone else I have ever had to the house. I will never call another guy out as long as these guys are in business! 32yrs is a good record. Now I know why. Thanks Jason. Great job.

I just had a marvelous experience with this company. My sewer was overflowing, they came right over. The work person was very nice and comfortable to deal with. There was no hassle, no upselling, no weirdness and the job was completed in a short time.
I will call them again in a heart beat (that is if I need them which I hope I don't!)
Thanks 15!

Complete incompetence. Here's my story.

I live in a rental apartment whose owner has an account with Fifteen Dollar. I called them around 10 am asking for a service. The said that the owner has to contact them first to authorize the repairs. They refused to even preliminarily schedule it nor to make a call to the owner themselves, which would have simplified the constant phone tag. Next, the owner calls them to approve the service. Great. I get an appointment at 11:40 for a 1:30 to 3:30 time window.

I got home at 1:30, the guy arrived at 2:40, took 5 minutes to look at the problem, then told me he needed to get another approval, which would take a few minutes. An hour later, I took a peek outside, and he was there, just hanging out in the street. Said he was still waiting for the approval (it's a simple fix, way within the expected range for a plumbing service, so they could've EASILY asked for an approval for up to some amount).

THEN, after he got the approval, he said he needed to run around the corner to pick up some parts. Could that not have been done while waiting for the second approval? In any case, 45 min later, he finally showed up with the parts and is trying to fix the issue. It's been over 150 minutes since I've been sitting here wasting my time.

Avoid at all cost, unless you don't value your own time.

This plumber will NOT service the city of East Palo Alto, 10min away.

I called a company I found on Yelp on a Friday and they kept saying someone would be out today, today, today. So, I ended up calling Fifteen Dollar Rooter and they came out within an hour and declogged our drain. Thanks!

Our kitchen drain clogged on a Sunday. After trying to plunge it and snake it myself I started calling reputable plumbers in the area. None worked on Sunday. I saw the Yelp listing for Fifteen Dollar Sewer & Drain cleaning and after reading the reviews gave them a call. Sunday was no problem and the price quoted was $83. ( I was sure I was going to have pay much more). Benny came out and an hour later the drain was clear. He charged me $83 as quoted. It is great to see a business that does good work at a fair price and charges what they quoted. I would definitely call them again.

These guys are awesome. I called for some annual maintenance due to roots growing into an old drain pipe. Tony showed up the same day (within 1 hour) They did the exact same job as roto-rooter for 1/4 of the price. I highly recommend them and will be calling them every year.

These guys are just AMAZING! I am still a bit in shock... In business 31 years. If there were an option to give a bajiilion stars I would...
Day 1: Mark (the owner) comes to my house and spends at least an hour diagnosing a backed up drainage system to drain rain off the roof. He took a half hour driving to my house. He says he needs his snake that has a camera on the end, and he will return tomorrow. Never mentioned a charge.
Day 2:
Mark and Santos (an amazing, wonderful guy also...) came to my house with the ""camera-ed snake' that has a video camera on the end to diagnose why my downspouts are plugged. Upon snaking the pipes they found out where the ""clog"" started in the ground. Digging out and cutting open the pipe (a corrugated plastic pipe) it was obvious it was beyond repair, completely over grown with roots and dirt. So rather than try to sell me a 4K plumbing job (which I probably would have agreed to..) he shows me a simple ""do it yourself"" fix that I can do for 50$ with stuff from Home Depot. Then Mark said ""I will send you the 4K estimate anyway, but I wouldn't do it if it was my house.""
It just makes my heart sing to know that there are still such souls on the planet. They spent 2+ hours at my house over 2 days and charged me $87.50. Huh? Believe it.

Used this company last year and when the back-up started this last week-end, I did not hesitate to call. Derek was out in an hour and cleared the roots out in short order. He also cleared another drain. I was a tad disappointed that they were going charge extra for the additional drain, but when I told him that this was not disclosed when they quoted me the price, he fixed the problem at no additional charge.

I'll use and recommend them again.
