Dishonesty at it's maximum , they will invent problems that will cost you. Don't be taken advantage of...

I had a clog-up of my house to the sewer line. I noted in my old notes that prior plumber of mine had recommended Thrifty Rooter. I called them up and they gave me a quote over the phone, and had a worker out within a half-hour. The worker was Jesus (R-18). He did an professional job and snaked from my front yard cleanout plug to the street. He cleared the clogs, got out a couple of pieces of root and we were done.
I think that the price was good and the company doesn't seem to be out to upsell the customer.
It couldn't have gone smoother and I was very satisfied. Thanks again!

We requested an unclogging of the kitchen drain line since we used them prior to this and it worked out well. They came and unclogged the kitchen drain and all was working. Unfortunately, it was within a few weeks when we noticed that the drainage was getting plugged up again.

Note that last time, things lasted for almost a year.

Unfortunately, when I called them back, they said the guarantee was only for 30 days and that they wouldn't cover the second cost if they found food in the kitchen drain. Both the upstairs neighbor and ourselves have learned not to throw out any food down the kitchen drain (even though we have a food disposal, we still don't) and I typically run hot water through the drain to keep things flowing. Unfortunately, Thrifty Rooter really failed us this time.

It's now into the second month and things are fully clogged again. Guess I can't trust them anymore.

Too bad.

Finally, I have found an honest and fair plumbing and rooter company. I have a trustworthy plumber; Pat at Story Plumbing but he does not do sewer line repairs or clearing. It is almost impossible to find honest and fair tradesmen these days, almost all are con artists charging ridiculously high prices and lying about what needs to be done. Susie at Thrifty Rooter (818) 558-1018 is great! Her technicians are smart, efficient, and very hard-working. Susie does not do work by the hour, only on a quoted basis (I much prefer time and material billing for repairs). I am a retired contractor, I have California Contractors licenses for air conditioning (C20), electrical (C10), and plumbing (C36).

I used thrifty rooter for a few years now and was reasonable.
After they combined with titan they changed. More then doubled they prices
and they do also unnecessary additional work. And they give you a bill which is not itemized and you ask for breakdown of charges no response.

I had used Thrifty Rooter for decades and they were great, but they've recently been bought out and are using third party plumbers. Instead of charging an hourly rate, they now charge random amounts per each task. They quoted me $250 to replace a faucet (which I provided.) I refused the job. I had someone else install it and it took five minutes! $250 for five minutes work is outrageous. They've now lost me as a customer forever.

Thrifty Rooter came to the rescue when my apartment plumbing backed up in the bathroom, due to tree roots caught in the main line. Jesus arrived promptly, late at night, and did an excellent job. He was patient and thorough. Highly recommended service.
