Recommended Customer Reviews

Rub A Dub Plumbing does not stand by their work. In May, when my toilets would not flush, they said I needed a new septic system. I followed the recommendation and paid them $9K to replace my septic system. Now in September, my toilet won't flush and they tell me I need to pay them to clear the lines. Apparently, per the office worker, I should have known to "ask" them to clear the lines when they replaced the septic. I recommend using a trustworthy plumbing company. Don't make my mistake!

Rub A Dub Plumbing sold me a $9000 septic system in May and my toilets would not flush in September. When they come out to look I'm told that it's my issue since it's a clogged line. Would you expect $9000 install would include cleaning out the lines going into the house because I mistakenly did. Beware of this company because they don't stand by their work and price gouge at every opportunity.

Rub-a-Dub has always been helpful from start to finish. We have used them for multiple services and every time they have always cleaned up any mess, worn booties inside, and been thorough in their explanations of services both needed and rendered. I would definitely recommend them.

This company sucks. They cost to much and don't back up there work. The service guy made it worse. Do not use this company.

Hired this Company to install a new septic system. Long story short, they messed up install and the owner Brent would not stand behind there work. Worst experience with a contractor I have ever had. Due yourself a favor and hire someone else.

Tim and mike did an awesome job getting our plumbing back working! Definitely recommend them!

I typically try to take care of things on my own, but I couldn't figure this one out. I was losing pressure with the hot water. Aaron Trapp with Rub-A-Dub came out and was able to trouble shoot to figure out the issue in less than an hour. Thankfully it was a simple fix and we are able to shower normally again. Rub-a-dub is up front with the pricing, so it makes it easy and you know what you are getting into.

Arron Tripp did a wonderful job at my annual inspection. He's very friendly and does a great job.

They are good plumbers. Fast and professional. But they are extremely expensive and bill by the piece and not time and materials. They did a job for me that after they kept adding up all the small stuff it was double what I expected based on other similar jobs by others. I started with a stopped up toilet. They ended up charging for removing the toilet, resetting it, snaking a small line, replacing wall valve, plus service call. That was about $600.

One star gives them too much credit! Mike came to our house 2 times and could not figure out why my shower would not get hot. After spending over $1000 he then told me he was going to have to run a line through the attic (this is after he made a HUGE mess in my closet and cut through my wall, he never patched it)! ! He wanted another $1400 to go through the attic!!!!! I told him I was getting a second opinion. SUPER PLUMBERS came out and within 30 seconds fixed the shower. It had a scald guard on it. This company will lie, cheat and steal your money!!!!!!!!!! Shame on companies like this!!! NEVER EVER USE THEM!!!
UPDATE 02/25/2020
The office manager has decided to email me and insult me! "Have you ever made a mistake? Ever missed anything? Did you do it on purpose? "
Never have the said he needs more training. Their tactic is to insult the customers. It clearly shows the education level. What happened to accountability? When and office manager says, "You don't work for free do you? " to me as the customer it clearly shows their push for HIGH PRICE sales. Shame on them.
