"Never again with ASI, the White Glove Guys I just went through a plumbing problem using ASI and will never use them again. My problem started when I could hear water running in a downstairs bathroom. And found that I had water leaking out at the base of the stucco siding behind the bathroom. I called ASI and they were able to send a plumber the next day. The plumber arrives and I explain the situation to him, and we agree that the best (least destructive) way to get to where we hear the leak is from the outside. He cuts an 18-inch square hole in the stucco so that we could see the leak. The good news is that we cut in exactly the right spot to see what was going on. The bad news is that the water was leaking from the sleeve surrounding a branch of the water line that went down into the concrete slab. He tells me he can’t fix the leak, but he will take the appropriate pictures and send them to the person at ASI who does leak detection and have him call me the next day. Cost for his 30 minute visit was $225 ($450 per hour!) and all I have to show for it is a hole in the side of my house. To be fair to the plumber, he didn’t know what he would find, and had the leak been above the slab he could have fixed it and we would have gone happily on our way. The next day comes and goes with no call from ASI, so I call them the following day. They can schedule me in for three days later. I’m thinking that the guy coming is going to locate the leak and fix it, but that’s not what happened. He looked at the problem and we discussed where the possible places where the leaking line could go to. We figure there are two likely places the line goes, one good and one bad. The most likely possibility is to the ice maker in the refrigerator which is in the middle of the slab with no easy way to get to it. The other is to a wet bar sink that was removed many years ago with the line water lines capped off. He says that if the leak is in the unused sink, the water line it will just be capped and it will just be a service call like before. If they have to reroute the water line will be a one-day job which is a fixed price of $2900. Considering that we think that they are going to have to run a line to an outlet in the middle of the slab, the price appeared reasonable, so we schedule for several days later. When the plumbers arrive to do the repair, the first thing is to cap off the leaking line and determine where this line actually goes. The good news is that it isn’t the ice maker, but it wasn’t the capped off wet bar sink either. Instead, this line goes to the kitchen sink. This was the best alternative possible as almost the entire rerouted line could be run outside the house. They proceed and you can see the result in the pictures. The long line on the house turns into the house though a hole they cut in the stucco and through one cabinet and has a shutoff valve on the end of it. On the near end was a down-over-up loop of about 18 inches total to connect to the water supply. They insisted on taking lunch at the point where they just had to solder one last joint. So, after the lunch break they take five minutes to solder the joint and turn on the water to check for leaks. They got here a little before 9 am and even after a 30 lunch, it is 11:30 when they are done. So even though they spend less than half a day running this one line, they still charged the full amount. I complained to the company but their argument is that they change a fix price to protect the customer if the job goes long. The problem is that if the job goes short because they estimated the job incorrectly, the customer does not get a break. In hindsight, the job should have been reevaluated once the true destination of the water line was known and done on a time and material basis. So, the bottom line is that I paid ASI over $3100 for a little over three hours work or about $1000 per hour. I will never use them again!"

"Carini installed my mini splits a few years ago and promised me the world with their warranties. Well, turns out they botched something during the install and all of the refrigerant leaked out. They want $2,200 to refill and re-pressurize the line. Since they cross-threaded the screw that led to the leak during installation, this should be covered under the "Lifetime Craftsmanship" guarantee. Instead, they're trying to charging me a full day of labor to fix their mistake. Support on this issue has been dismal. It's been 16 days since they first diagnosed the problem and I still don't have a timeline for when this will get fixed. I chose Carini because of their warranties and their service record, but its all smoke and mirrors. You've been warned."

"Excellent service! We scheduled Plumbing Plus to replace the hot and cold cartridge's in a sink faucet and a tub pop-up drain and overflow gasket. Jared N. quickly assessed the problems. The faucet was so corroded with water deposits that it could not be dismantled to simply replace the hot and cold cartridge's. So Jared replaced the entire faucet with a high quality replacement. After the tub pop-up drain was replaced, Jared checked for leaks by looking in a 'trap door' in the ceiling below the tub that was left after the tub was replaced in an earlier remodel. Jared discovered that the entire tub drain was leaking and need to be replaced, which he did. He also corrected a problem with the drain pipe left from the previous remodel. Although the job was much more complex than expected, Jared was professional, efficient, and extremely cheerful throughout . We highly recommend Jared and Plumbing Plus"

Drain cleaning services FAQs
The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
On average, a plumber will take 30 minutes to two hours to clear a clogged drain. If the clog is located close to the drain or an access point and isn’t severe, the project will take about half an hour. If the clog is deep within your plumbing system or is a severe blockage, it can take two or more hours to remove the clog. For this reason, main line clogs tend to take longer, usually between two and three hours.
It’s possible to snake minor drain clogs yourself, provided they sit within a foot or two of the drain itself, but it’s usually best to hire a professional plumber regardless. Even experienced DIYers have a high chance of accidentally pushing the clog further into the drain using a drain snake or another tool, so hiring a plumber is the ideal course of action. A professional plumber can use camera equipment to locate and identify the clog, and remove the entire blockage to fix your issue permanently.
In most areas, drain cleaning professionals don’t technically need a license, as they aren’t altering your plumbing system in any way. However, we recommend hiring a drain cleaning professional with a plumbing license and certification. Certified plumbers are more likely to provide professional solutions to drain clogs without damaging your system. They’ll also have the diagnostic tools and experience necessary to remove the clog entirely rather than providing a temporary solution, as a handyperson might. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to check your plumber’s professional licenses before hiring.
Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.
