"Hello Mr. [Member name removed], I just saw this review and I believe that you have placed your review on the wrong company. We have only been to your address one time in June of 2011 to install a water heater. Roto-Rooter is the original rooter company and was established in 1935. There are many companies that have similar names. Can you please call me or email me back so we (all) can get to the bottom of this and figure out which company was actually at your home. Thank you in advance. Sincerely, John Heard General manager for Roto-Rooter Plumbers of Ventura County. [email protected] 805 642-1980."
Ron was able to schedule work for the same day. He and the technician Danny came out with both the camera and a heavy duty cleaning machine. When they found roots in the drain, they were able to auger the pipe right then and there, alternating between the camera and the auger until it was either clear or needing bigger guns. Having both pieces of equipment on hand made it very quick and convenient. Danny was extremely persistent with the auger and was able to clear all but one set of roots. Normally this would require digging up and replacing the section of pipe, but Ron and Danny returned the next morning with a high pressure water blaster that cleared the last roots. We are now compliant with the city.
We had to pay separately for the video, the cleaning, and the high pressure blasting, but even adding in the costs of the other plumbers' camera work, it was still far less expensive than replacing the sewer, which the others said was the only other option.
Ron and Danny are thoroughly professional and knowledgeable, and are very nice people as well. I am very impressed with Danny's persistence that almost got us the entire way through the sewer. He really hung in there. Kudos to Danny!
I am also impressed that they were so prompt, and when it was found that the blaster was needed, they were there the very next morning. They also made sure they didn't come until after 9 am, so the neighbors wouldn't be disturbed. That was very considerate.
I can't say enough good things about them. I will be using them again when needed, for both drain clearing and plumbing work, and recommend them highly to anyone.
"Greetings Mr. [removed member name]. I am so happy to read your review. Both Danny and Ron are great! As to your lateral inspection, we see this issue of plumbing companies telling homeowners over and over that they need massive repairs or a replacement just to sell the home! It puts a bad name on the many of us honest companies. It was really great that you had the in-site to get another opinion, most people don't and it is a testimony that as consumers we must be vigilant. Much Thanks for your kind words! Sincerely John Heard General Manager"
