Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Water Cleanup

Sarah L.

I will never use Roto Rooter again! The man who came out to clear our pipes of roots tried to tell us we had a major problem with our pipes and that we had to wait for a manager to discuss replacing them for ~$7000. That was code for wait 2 hours for someone to come and try to upsell us something we didn't need. On top of that, they didn't adequately clear the pipes of roots and charged way too much. Also would not guarantee their work. We ended up calling another plumber out who did a much better job for considerably less money and said our pipes were fine.

I called for toilet repair due to roots in the pipe. I was very nervous and worried about the cost because of previous plumbers I've dealt with. Rod and his co-worker were here on time, with a friendly professional attitude. They had the problem fixed in less than an hour. I highly recommend Vern's and will be a regular customer.

If i could give no stars i would. The plumber was very rude. Made me feel uncomfortable in my own home. I would never ever recommend them. If there plumber is an indication of the whole staff that place s doomed.

Horrible customer service. The worker went to my tenant's home to charge them at 9 at night when I had arranged a phone payment with their dispatchers. No communication within that company whatsoever. They arrived late to the service call because they mistakenly got the city wrong and the dispatch had the nerve to blame it on me, lucky all phone calls are recorded and they owned up to it, which is why they get one star and not zero(I know I can't give zero). Never going through these guys again.

They came nearly 4 hours late to their appointment with me, without calling me and warning me.
When they came, I asked for a quote before they began and their costs for the two things I needed repaired were outrageous.
I have since called another plumber to service my problems and he is charging us about $400 less than this company and $200 less for the other problem.

""Plumber"" arrived 40 minutes late and starts telling my wife that he will need an extra $400 to remove the toilet to snake the line. I talked to him and told him where I the access done when I had it done before. My wife had find our metal detector to locate the lid. He kept telling her that cutting the roots would not really solve the problem, abut that they could do a different method, which cost $1200 and guarantee it for 3 years. He then took the sewer snake and without ANY type of bit on it, ran it and managed to pull about 12 ounces of filament root and a little toilet paper. He told her that the hole he made was only as big as a finger and that we should not use toilet paper! He could only guarantee the job for 10 days. $215 for nothing! I called him back today, and he told me that it was too dangerous to run a root cutting blade where I had a plumber do the same thing 15 years ago! He said that really they could not do the job if there were roots in the line! What a plumber! What a scam!

I got screwed by this bunch. I put in a call for a toilet replacement, a gas line cut and to replace a faucet. They gave me a price of around $3900. I agree. Next they go in bathroom and pull up my toilet which had no problems but now they tell me there such a big problem that they can't put a toilet in unless they fix this ring for $600. Now I have a bill of $4500. they ask me if it's ok for them to leave the lamp and just cut the gas line and I agree like a fool when all along they are charging me for all the time it's suppose to take them to dig out this lamp. So now the job is finished. I have water leaking everywhere in my kitchen, I call them back. They come and move things around and are gone. Well the next morning I have water everywhere. I call them and they come out and tell me that it is going to be $250 more dollars. Really. So I call the manager and he gets this dealt with at no additional charge. After the 30 day period, the toilet is rocking. Remember this is the one that I had to pay this extra six hundred to fix. So now I had to call a plumber and the first thing he tells me is that this ring is to high and should have been flat. Roto Rooter needs to be ashamed of themselves.

Scheduling was through a call center, they had no pricing info. Nice enough guy showed up timely but said to clear the kitchen line would be $225! I apologized for wasting his time coming out and he left.

Felipe G.

I called to schedule an appointment they said some one would be there with in an hour. Three hours later I called back and they didn't even have me in their system, so I basically waited for nothing. It was late now so they couldn't get someone there till the evening. I ended up calling another company and they were there in an hour and took care of my problem fast. I will never call roto rooters again.
