Greg the Drain Man

C G.

Here it is a year later - and I need a drain cleaned - I called Greg and he remembered the address, the pipes and what was wrong a year ago.

I left for work, he came by, fixed the clog and left a note on the door describing what he did.

What more could we ask for?

Thanks

This guy is completely irresponsible.
After scheduling an appointment and taking the time off work to meet him, he calls back late and tells me he's got another job to work on and won't show up until later.
He's only retort is ""find somebody else"".

Greg came highly recommended and was responsive and did a good job. He knows his stuff and was in and out quickly. Seemed very friendly too and gave me his card. I had a totally unrelated drainage issue several days later and made that plain on the message that I left. No answer from him and no answer to several other calls I left over the next day or so. Finally I called Roto Rooter and they were out within 2 hours.

Greg does not want your business. Do not bother calling him.

We have a stopped up drain. We've called Greg twice in the past two weeks asking if he might be able to come fix it. He has never bothered to return our calls. No one ever answers the office or cell phone. You just leave voice mails and hope in vain that someone will acknowledge you. That's poor customer service.

We certainly won't be calling Greg for a third time, and I'll be telling my friends to avoid him. Really, there are plenty of good plumbers in Marin who are willing and eager to help. Don't bother with one who isn't.

Efficient, excellent drain service. Took the time to make sure the whole house drained well, after a severe blockage built up over the years - which used to be possible to ""self fix"" with Liq Plumber every year or so. Greg arrived quickly ,and immediately went to work for a good hour of snaking a clog at the far end of the house. I appreciated his perseverance, ending with the knowledge that my drains are cleared and fully open and can now handle the occasional bit of rice...

This guy is the very best. He is as honest as the day is long. Had a problem and called one of the toll free numbers in the yellow pages. They came out and told me I needed to spend 6K to fix the drain. A friend told me to call Greg and 125.00 later the issue was resolved. Since then he has helped the neighbors and they are all pleased as well.

I am responsible for around 350 kitchens and 500 bathrooms from Sauslito to Novato. Greg is the guy I call when drains back up. Occasionally he is busy and I use a large local company, but Greg is my first choice. He really knows his stuff and goes the extra mile to get the problem fixed.

We have used Greg before but the last phone call and service request we made was met with an unusual rude and short response ending up with him hanging up before we could even get our questions answered. For someone in the service trade this not only rude and unprofessional but the signs and strains of a one man shop. After calling Rooter Rooter and having them cheerfully and professional answer our questions we scheduled our business with them and it was less experience and a better experience.

I've had a number of marginal experiences with both local and national drain cleaning companies,.especially those with two ""Rs"" in their names. I've found most of them to be either bait and switch operations or totally incompetent. The bait and switchers usually quote a price on the phone and then show up a ""rate card"" at many multiples of the quoted rate. I've had ""technicians"" from widely advertised companies show up without the faintest idea of how their equipment operates or the principals of leak-free plumbing.

So, this time, when the kitchen sink plugged, up I asked my favorite local plumber for a recommendation of a good local craftsman, he recommended Greg. I called at 8:30 in the morning and Greg was at my home within 20 minutes, clean, alert, awake and ready to work before I even had time to explain the problem.

He power snaked out both the Kitchen and Bathroom clean-outs and then disassembled the kitchen sink to clear any remnants of the problem. No muss, no fuss, just conscious professional work. Greg was careful of our meager landscaping, offered advice on how to avoid or correct the problem should it reoccur and left our home and yard spotless with no sign of his presence except for a free flowing drain.

Up until the last few years I've done all my own plumbing, home repair and construction so I recognize a professional when I meet one.
Greg is a consummate professional, honest, licensed, bonded and insured.

Oh, even though the job was more complex then anticipated, the more than fair price quoted was the price paid. NO BS! I can put my plumbing tools out to pasture now. I love dealing with conscious people, thanks Greg.

Greg came out almost immediately when I had my plumbing backup. There was a redwood root that was encroaching on my main sewage line and he had this cutter tool that cut this 1"" root out. Great job and I felt he charged a reasonable rate for all the work he did. He also snaked my garage sink at no extra charge.
