Recommended Customer Reviews

We had an issue with our kitchen sink not draining and a friend referred us to The Drain Co. We were glad he did! They were quick to get someone out to the house within a few hours of calling and got the sink drain snaked and back up and operating in no time! Fast, affordable and great service would highly recommend!

I am a real estate broker and have used The Drain Co. quite a few times for my clients or referred people to them with great feedback, but today was the first time that I actually needed to use them myself. Our water heater went out and we discovered that it was beyond its useful life and didn't make sense to repair. We called The Drain Co at 9 AM and they had someone out at 12:30 PM and our new water heater was installed by 3 PM. Alonso and team were very professional and did a great job. Thank you Star and Co for a job well done!!

I also fix broken pipes. Technician was friendly and professional. Price was fair for great service again. They will hear from me again but I hope that soon.

Simple and easy. They came out and cleared our drains in the backyard! Affordable and fast! Thanks Drainco :)

Rihana from The Drain Co was upfront with quote for service and responded quickly to our call for help with a drainage problem from our washing machine. Mark who came to our home, snaked drain pipe and recommended changes to eliminate future problems. This familiy owned company is transparent, honest, dependable, reasonable and especially pleasant to work with.

I have been using the The Drain Co for years. They are honest and dependable. They are my first call for all my plumbing needs.

Great company. Definitely would recommend to anyone in the area. Also, they have responded promptly to my many needs and offers a fair price for service rendered.

Had two clogged drains. Tub and shower. Lazalo came out and cleared them both within an hour. He was nice and efficient, and the price was exactly what they advertised. I will definitely call them again.

I own rental property and have relied on the Drain Company for over 15 years. They respond promptly, are considerate of my tenants, and guarantee their work.
I recommend them not only for the quality of their work, but also their reliability as a resource to resolve appropriate plumbing issues efficiently and effectively.

Would def recommend to friends. They have amazing service they came to my home within the hour of calling. They are also very affordable and fast.
