I called another plumber that I had used before who told me not to beat myself up over it. He offered to give me a 2nd opinion free, came out that afternoon, confirmed the need to replace the safety but not the magnesium rod. He told me he would replace the safety right now and since I had no leaks and was getting hot water I could set money aside to replace the unit. He would credit the labor from this job to the labor for the replacement job. So much nicer than React-Fast...and for far less. Bottom line...both times I purchased coupons off Angie's list I felt like they did not do what was described for the coupon but since I had to pay up front I had no way to know that all I was going to get for my money was an estimate. I am hesitant to purchase any more coupon offerings because I can get free estimates elsewhere.

Everything else in the house including the other toilet, sinks, and tub were all draining perfectly so I knew the problem had to be isolated to the one toilet and there had to be something in that fixture and the immediate line to it. I asked for an idea how much it would cost to have it unplugged but they said they would give me an estimate when they got to my house. I set an appointment for the next day or two. They gave me an afternoon appointment but didn't arrive until after 9 pm. In the mean time I called another plumber and found out they did not charge a trip fee and would do the work for $90 hr. RotoRooter came to my house and quoted $216 to open the clog. I was shocked at how much more expensive they were than the other plumber and past experience with other plumbers who have opened my drain before. They ran an auger into the sewer line and spent a lot more time than this RR technician ended up spending. I told him I was sorry but I could not afford that much. I was going to call the other guy (also A rated on Angie's list) who quoted $90 an hour. The RotoRooter tech asked me how much I expected to pay and I said $90 so that is what he charged me. It took him a total of about 15 minutes from the minute he arrived until he walked out my door. I don't have a problem with this company other than their prices. In the past alot of contractors see that my friends and I are older women often with a medical or mental handicap and they use our vulnerability as an opportunity to jack their prices up. I am not saying that RR is one of those kind of contractors. He lowered his price to the competitor's $90 but it still leaves me with that same old question in my mind...why did he quote me the higher price to begin with? I don't know but I will not call them again because they are too expensive. I gave them a fair rating because I did not see anything exceptional about them. I rated their price fair because he lowered the price to the competitor but if he had not I would have given them an "F" on prices. If they had made the effort to be nice at any level from the person who answered the phone to the techician...if he had smiled...or in some way acted glad have my business...I would have been happy to give them a better rating. It doesn't cost anything to be nice to your customers and act like you arappreciate the opportunity to form a new customer relationship and earn that $90 or however much it is for fifteen minutes of your time. I would have really been mad if I had paid $216 then learned I could have gotten it done for $90.

This is the third time we've used Pacific Plumbing and they get an A+. We called them and an hour later, four men were here. They had to flush out the entire water line from the street to the house. It took about 2.5 hours and then the toilets worked and the water had drained from the...
They were supposed to be here at 9, but were a little late. They said what we paid for would not cover the drain cleaning we needed and refused to honor the $99 deal and said it would be $250.

"Javier and his team did an excellent job on our yard. It was a challenging project requiring the removal of over 45 trees and bushes from an established yard including grinding and removing all the roots and then replacing it all with new landscaping including irrigation and lighting. His price estimate was very competitive. They started and finished on time. Definitely recommend them for all your landscaping needs."

FAQs for french drain service projects in Riverdale, CA
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The cost to install a drain pipe is $600 on average, but the total can range between $150 and $2,000. Some cost factors that influence your project price include the type of drain, the area’s accessibility, the proximity of existing drain lines, and whether you’re installing a new drain or replacing an old one. Replacing the p-trap or s-trap under a single fixture will usually cost around $150, while replacing a main drain pipe can cost well over $2,000.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
