"Job took longer than promised and the communication between there workers was lacking and the work done on our house was very sloppy. Their workers caused damage to our antique bookcase and the job was set back because of Jeffrey's lack of communication & professionalism. This company wanted to try to convince us not to get a permit before the work began Vinent Acosta owner of this company is in co-hoots with his employee Jeffrey R to give false estimates & reports of work that does not need to be done. Jeffrey head bidder said and wrote an estimate for $3,150 that I needed to repair a hole in cast iron pipe under my house. Later this was determined to be a false estimate and an attempt to rip us off. We had to call them down numerous times to correct the work they did not do correctly. We would never recommend these people to do any plumbing work. They give a quote than later try to up the price which is very dishonest. They did not respect the integrity of the design of our house running exposed plumbing lines through rooms instead of the exterior stucco & wood. When they did set a time to do some work and correction work they did not show up or call us to reschedule. The workers they sent out to our house to do the work arrived with unmarked cars and plain clothes appeared to be subcontracted and wanted to try to begin the work without showing me a permit that I had asked for a week prior. Initially they tried to convince us not to get a permit to do the job. After paying them $15,000 we are left to hire another plumbing company to finish work they promised to do but failed & refused to do. There technician Jefferey demanded full payment before the job was fully inspected. I would rate Alpine Plumbing & Rooter less than a one star. Beware of lack of honesty and false promises. We regret ever hiring them we were given a 3 day promise that the plumbing job would be complete when it took them almost a month."

"Wesley was extremely responsive. He made all efforts allowing us to continue doing our business at home while he was assessing the problem, assembling his crews, and obtaining a City permit. We were well informed of the progress. His crew did an excellent and clean job, working long hours getting the job done. Including excavated to a depth of 10 feet, patched up our concrete driveway and patched up the AC roadway nicely.

Affordable plumbing 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.

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. 

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.

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.

Typically, plumbing repairs cost about $325 per job but can range from $175 to $4,000 or more. Simple fixes, such as a toilet repair, will be less expensive at around $150 to $400. However, if you have a pipe that has burst, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000 or more. 

The project that needs to be completed, the size of your home, and the type of plumbing pipes you have can all impact the final cost. External factors such as supply chain issues and shortage of materials all play a part in how much this repair might be.

The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350
