Affordable Trenchless & Pipe Lining Inc

My sewer would back up, always on a weekend or a holiday. This time on Martin Luther King day. I had to call one of the 24 hour generic companies (NOT AFFORDABLE TRENCHLESS!!). The guy didn't seem to know what he was doing & it was taking him forever so I asked the company to send another person. I got a lecture from the guy about how honest he was. I was told that I had orangeberg pipe & that it was totally collapsed. I didn't believe him cuz a plumber built this house. I was told it had to be replaced & would cost $3500 + 700 for city cleanout. Anyway, the next day I called Affordable Trenchless after seeing great reviews on Angies List. He came over quickly. He ran his camera down cleanout by house & I watched. It looked like metal pipe to me & not all collapsed like the other company said. Ryan from Affordable Trenchless said my pipe was cast iron & did not need to be replaced. He said there was a break where it joined the city line. He said that he could repair it & put in the clean out @ the city line for $750. He cleaned the line out so it would work & we scheduled it for later that week. He & his son, who are both very nice, came & fixed it. They had to do a lot of digging but it only took them a few hours. They put all the dirt back where it was. He calculated the actual cost & it was $8 less than he estimated. I would have gladly just paid the extra 8. They were great,  very professional, polite, respectful, and most of all HONEST. The other company tried to swindle me. Ryan told me what to tell them to get my money back & I did. He was so refreshing after having several companies out in the past 2 years & none of them telling me what the problem was but instead wanting to replace a perfectly good sewer pipe. This guy is a keeper. He'll be my plumber from now on. Very trustworthy!! Great work! Great price!!

Original date for work postponed for a couple of days. We agreed, since it was not an emergency situation. Once they showed up everything was as advertised.  The work was mostly completed in one day; we were without functioning sewer for only a couple of hours, or less. Second day, installed extra cleanout and cleaned up site. We are satisfied customers.

Had a sewer inspection done as part of due diligence for a home purchase and have already recommended them due to their professionalism.They were running a bit late but more than made up for the wait. The inspection was absolutely worth the peace of mind. They took the time to explain the issue they found and even dealt with the blocked line to make sure I got the video inspection. The quote to fix the problem was completely reasonable. I never thought I would be this happy about a sewer inspection.

The Saturday after Thanksgiving I had my sewer line back up into the house causing me to hire a plumber to root out my pipes.  After getting drain cleared I had a firm come out and camera my sewer line and had found that tree roots had penetrated the line and my sewer pipe had burst near the street and water would pool in the pipes.   That firm gave me a quote that ended up being almost twice as much as the quote I later received from Affordable Trenchless & Pipe Lining.   I have a large front yard so looking at 90 - 100 linear feet of piping that needed to be replaced.   I preferred the trenchless method as they only need to dig hole close to house and street to feed the pipe.   This method would not require digging a four foot deep trench the length of the yard.
Affordable pipe was suppose to do the work on 12/18/12 but the weather was horrible that day with rain and wind.   The owner (Ryan) called first thing in the morning and suggested we re-schedule as it would be very messy in that weather.   He told that he would try to reschedule some other interior work so he could still get my job done during this week.   The next morning he called and said they would be at the home at noon and would do the project.   The workers were prompt and completed the job in about 3 hours.   They were there the next morning for inspection by County.   They cleaned up the project and filled in the two holes.  
I would recommend this firm to anyone who needs a sewer line replacement. 

We had another company come out a few weeks previously who did a hydrojet of our main line. Unfortunately 2 weeks later we had additional sewage back-up issues and had to have them come out again. They were unable to get the line open again due to large tree roots in our yard and quoted us a new trenchless system for $6600. I called around for second opinons and Ryan and his team came out promptly the next morning. I am pleased to say they were honest, friendly and opened my line up again for just $200. We still have to get the system replaced but this gave us the time to do it right and be sure we were doing what needed to be done. They showed me the video of the line and sent an electronic quote for the future job promptly the next day. Overall very responsive, good hard working people who are honest and straight with you.

Great company.  Very punctual and the communication was excellent.  They quoted me $2500 when everyone else was at least $800 more.  The amount of work exceeded what they initially expected and they did not charge me one penny more.  A lot of companies will bid low and charge you more after they start a job.  These guys stuck to their original estimate and performed great work.  My sewer is up to date and works like a charm.  I would highly recommend them and will use them in the future. 

I received a quote from them that was thousands lower than a competitor.  The only reason I decided going with someone else was a first hand recommendation to another company that matched the price.

They were efficient, cleaned up after themselves, and the best price (I had 3 quotes) I had questions after it was all done and paid for and they were still very quick about taking care of my concerns Overall excellent!

Punctual, professional, priced well. No surprises. Outstanding team. Owner onsite, participating in work. A pleasure to deal with

Ryan had performed diagnostic exam (fiberoptic camera) of home we bought several months ago (built 1970 ish). He and helper put in trenchless new sewer line from house to street. The realtor we use (Carole Goodin) uses his services extensively in her business, so we contacted him after consulting Bonney plumbing (large bill for less than diagnostic service). He came out to our home the next day, examined the system, cut a hole in drainage pipe, ran a camera and found the problem (several feet of soil/silt/mud clogging exit pipe which terminated a foot underground, rather than daylighting). The problem is fixed by them the following day by clearing and extending the drainage pipe with appropriate use of sloping pipe depth and bringing the end of the pipe to surface.

Ryan and his assistance arrived on time each day. Both were very pleasant and informative. We didn't obtain a competitive quote since monies came from escrow credit. After the job was completed, Express Plumbing did not return phone calls.
