I couldn't be happier. Had a clog in my tub, mainly due to my cat throwing things down the drain, and gave Grumpy's a call. I got a call back within 45 minutes APOLOGIZING for not calling me back sooner. And an appointment the next morning at 9 am. (It was already 3 pm that day.)

Both the woman on the phone, and the man who came out to do the work (husband and wife) were efficient and helpful, the work was done quickly, and he even showed me how to pull some parts off my tub and take a look myself next time so I don't have to call him.

I honestly don't know what unclogging a drain costs, but Grumpy's charges a flat rate to ""get it done"" however long it takes. Knowing the cost up front made this far more pleasant for me.

I was thrilled with the service from Grumpy's! Our kitchen sink drain was clogged, and we were certain it was somewhere in the basement, so I called Grumpy's - they returned my message within minutes and were at our house within an hour! Everyone was friendly, professional, and so efficient - made my day so much easier! And they offered a first time customer discount on their website. Greatly appreciated all they did for us ~

Keith came out to our house and unclogged 2 underground downspout. I am so thankful.This is something we had tried ourselves for hours and could not fix it. Keith did it so fast and so well.

If you are a new customer, don't forget to mention a new customer discount.

Grumpy's was able to come to my house within a day to remove a toy phone from the drain that my child had flushed. Conner showed up and was really friendly and quick with the removal. They provided me a quite before arriving and stuck with that quote, unlike some places who told me that couldn't give me a quote without being on-site first.

I would highly recommend Grumpy's, and hopefully I don't have to use them again for anything, but if I do, I will know to call them ASAP and that the work will be done well.

I have nothing but good things to say about Grumpy's. They said they could come the next morning, arrived right when they said they would, assessed the problem and dealt with it quickly and cleanly and gave me good advice on how to avoid future blockages. Super nice guy and a good price too.

If you use Grumpy's service it will be you who is grumpy. I had them come in September to clean my drains. Soon thereafter it rained and the drains were plugged again. I thought perhaps it was my fault because some moss was left in the drains when I had the roof cleaned. That was not the case. I called them again, but this time I observed their attempt to blow the drain out. Their technician, the same one who performed the first service, could not even get his equipment down the drain where there are 90 degree turns. He tried for 30 minutes and could not perform the service. Now I was confronted with digging up the line and finding the obstruction myself. It took significant time, but it did find the problem and it was extensive. Years of fir needles were compacted in the pipe right before it entered the drain field. When confronting Rita at Grumpy's she assures me that the drain was clean in September. That was impossible. I observed that they could not even get their equipment to the site of the clog and when I removed it the blockage was extensive.

Advise - save yourself the aggravation and use someone more trustworthy and honorable.

I was really pleased with their service. I called to schedule and appointment early in the morning, and they were able to come out that same day - in fact they came 2 hours after I had made the call. The technician really knew what he was doing and fixed the blockage quickly and ran my water for awhile to make sure it was all clear (which I totally appreciated). They were really well priced, it was a fixed rate. I had called other plumbers in the area, and either they didn't have time in their schedules until next week, or they had to come out to assess the situation before doing anything, but the ending costs would have been close to $300, which I was not about to pay.

I absolutely recommend Grumpy's Drains if you just need to clear a blockage in your pipes / drains. Respectful, nice and very responsive!

Another plumber referred me to them after he replaced a utility sink. The drain to the sink was clogged and my plumber didn't have drain clearing tools. They quoted me a fixed price of $178 to clear the drain and came out on time a couple of days later.

You can obviously find less expensive services but I was in a hurry to get this done so went with the plumber's recommendation so I have no complaints about paying a premium.

Was in a pinch to get a drain cleaned. Figured it may take days to get on a plumbers schedule. Called Grumpy's, based off of a referral from another plumber, in the late afternoon. They were at my house at 9am the next day. Drain fixed and better than ever without going over their quoted price.

Very happy with their service. Inclement weather forced rescheduling the original appointment but they did reschedule in a timely manner. Plumbing issue needed attention while I was visiting from out of town.

9-11 a.m. window of time given for appointment. They called to let us know when they would be there during that time the morning of the appointment. Bath tub and toilet needed snaking (determined after questions posed to determine whether the main stack might be involved) and all done with clean up afterwards as well. I thank them profusely for quick, efficient service.
