Roto-Rooter

First off, Leo knows his stuff. The issue I hadn't wasn't quickly resolved. Suggestions were made to prevent this from happening. If any issues were to happen again, I'm requesting this man again.

So my renters called and said carpet in master bedroom is soaking wet. I figured it was coming from the guest bathroom bathtub because it on the other side of the wall where wet carpet was. I had prior problems with drain getting loose and leaking water so I made sure to tell the roto rooter technician Ben to check the tub drain. He called me and left voicemail saying he checked drain and that's not the problem it's all dry under there and he has to knock down wall between bedroom and tub to find problem and it would be 1100$ to rip down wall and find issue and depending on issue it will be more. I said I'll hold off and I went to house and took off panel and looked at tub drain and it was soaked under there and I turn on tub water and sure enough it's leaking. So I go buy a $30 drain and fix it myself. Then I called manager Brandon to telll him about experience and I even emailed him videos and copies of bens voicemails saying he checked drain and it's dry and he needs to rip in wall and will cost thousand. He offered to go to rental and double check my work but never went and never called me back. I have videos, pictures and copies of voicemails showing technician was going to start ripping into walls and charging me thousands when issue was a $30 fix like I had told him and he lied to me. SHADY PLACE DONT USE THEM

Sonny was very polite and friendly and most of all, efficient. We had a burst hot water line located in our attic which caused a leak from the bedroom ceiling. It was after office hours on Sunday and I was relieved that Sonny was available. Thank you for a job well done.

I called Roto-Rooter for a molding issue that I THOUGHT I had, which wasn't the case. Richard came by on time and at my earliest convenience and was very helpful and informative about my situation. I would recommend this company for any plumbing needs.

I had a slow flushing toilet. Technician took the toilet off and ran the junior machine down the toilet line. When we flushed the toilet, it was just as bad as it was before. After a couple of more flushing, he said that he thought it was the jets on the toilet itself and wanted to schedule a toilet replacement. I declined.

Roto Rooter charged me $355 before diagnosing the clogged jets. Now looking with a mirror, I can see calcium clogging in the jets. So, hey Roto Rooter, why not diagnose the problem before charging me for something that didn't need fixing. I just spent $355 on utter incompetence and now must fix the toilet anyway. Not Happy.

To add insult to injure, the machine sprayed a line of sewage up my bathroom wall as he was pulling the snake out. Not Happy.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!
They sent a completely inexperienced ""plumber"" who openly admitted that he was learning as he was going (his name is Robert Guitierrez), and admitted that the only reason it took him three hours to replace a P-trap is because he was constantly making mistakes.
So, we paid $650 to install a P-trap and clear three drains.
He cleared two, and couldn't figure out how to clear the third. So he called his manager who promised to come out on 8/10/2020 to see what the problem was. Mr. Guiterrez then promised me that they would call on 8/10/2020 to set up an appointment time, and that the call-out fee would be waived.
No one called, no one came.
So, not only does this company employ completely inexpert wannabes who play at being plumber, they won't keep their word unless there's money involved.
I do not recommend this company unless you're comfortable having newbies practicing on your plumbing.

Payed 300 dollars for them to open a pipe that didn't help solve the problem.
I feel ripped off. I called them back and told us because it wasn't guaranteed it would have worked they will not be coming back without paying extra.
Now we're 300 dollars short and our toilet isn't working.
The only positive thing is they were prompt and friendly.

If you live in the bakersfield area, I highly recommend Pistol Pete's Plumbing and Rooting. They will actually get the job done and they charge us half of what Roto-Rooter cost us. They are honest and will help you fix your problem.
