The piece of equipment was accepted and I was told it would be approximately a week for the repair to be completed. I returned one week later to find the repairs had not been made. I was told they were very busy and it would take alittle longer. I returned a week later and the repairs were still not complete, however I noticed my unit had not moved but the unit around my machine were different. I was told by the owners mother her son Steve was very busy and he also has another job. I asked when my machine would be ready I was told another week. I returned again a week later and was told they did not want to make the repairs that they were very busy and the repairs to my mahine would take too much time. I became very angry at this time as I had wasted three plus weeks waiting on the machine and then Steve Shimahara which I believe to be the owner did not want to make the repairs because of time issues. He said he could repair several lawnmower in the time it would take to fix my rototiller. I asked or should I say I demanded to know why I had not been told this three weeks ago. All I was told was sorry but we do not want to make the repairs. I had wasted almost a month for repairs I finally had to make myself. I have used this company for years and had received excellent service. However with the Steve Shimahara in charge the attitude has changed. I resent being lied to for three weeks, tell me up front you do not want to do the work or can not do the work. Also since Steve has another job perhaps he should stick with that job and hire some help. I stronly suggest you aovid AKI'S Lawnmower Repair on Greenleaf Ave, Whittier, CA. They have a problem with telling the truth and more than likely too busy to make the repairs you need.

I had out of town guests and was not as involved in the process as I would have been. Unfortunately the technicians didn't bother to check with me before running the additional plumbing lines required for the job; they took the \"path of least resistance\" which was NOT an adequate installation, in addition they did not bother to clean up after themselves. They left two 70 lbs rolls of carpet that had been stored on the rafters of my garage just laying on the ground. I'm a female, head of household and I weight 125lbs. I had to climb up 4 ft on a ladder with 70lbs on my back twice!!!!!! to store them back up on the rafters!!! A few days of the installation I called back to get the plumbing lines re-directed and to complain about the fact that, in spite of the recirculating pump, it was taking an extra ordinate amount of time for warm water to reach the fixtures. The hot water delivery should have been instantaneous. I paid an extra charge to get them to make the changes that I wanted and Gil's solution to the issue with the delay in hot water delivery was to increase the temperature of the water heater and recommend that I purchase an improved recirculating pump. Well 6 months later, the situation with the timing of hot water delivery NEVER improved and in spite of my water softener, I notice that my water was feeling hard. I thought I had a problem with my softener . . . long story short, the water softener company sent their technician out and he pointed out the \"FACT THAT THE PLUMBERS HAD ERRONEOUSLY INSTALLED THE WATER LINES TO FEED THE WATER HEATER WITH HARD WATER, COMPLETELY BY-PASSING THE WATER SOFTENER\" it means that the hot water in my house is hard (the water heater is supposed to feed from \"the soft water\" line) Action Services faulty installation has placed in JEOPARDy MY WATER HEATER WARRANTEE. So I did my due diligence and called NORITZ, they provided me with the name of several experienced plumbers, I called three of them, who came out and (without me pointing out the problem of the water softener) detected the issue, in addition, all three reps noticed that the recirculating pump installed by Action Services was on the WRONG line!!!! Bottom line, Action Services is not trained to deal with anything other than BASIC, SIMPLE plumbing issues. What is alarming is the lack the INTEGRITY TO ADMIT that jobs, such as mine, are beyond their scope.

Sewer Line Repair reviews from real Angi homeowners in Whittier, CA
Honest and reliable! Thank you Mcafee plumbing for helping me out and guiding me through the process in finding the problem. This company could have easily sold me a complete main line, but I did not need it. I saved thousands of dollars. I had a constant leak coming from my front grass...
They disapoeared for weeks at a time, a job that should take 6 weeks took over 6 months to complete. Had to fire the first project manager because of substance abuse, lies and overall inefficiency. After they were gone, discovered the sewage line was not completed and plumbing was done wrong...

FAQs for sewer line repair projects in Whittier, CA
The average cost to snake your main sewer line is around $250 for a simple snake. Most sewer line specialists charge between $45 and $200 per hour for main sewer line snaking, so the time involved plays a major role. The price you’ll pay will depend on the severity of the clog, the item causing the backup, how long it takes to remove the item, and more. A more severe issue that requires unclogging a main sewer line will cost $3,100 on average.
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.
You should not attempt to snake your sewer yourself. Accessing and snaking your sewer requires heavy-duty equipment, and while renting is possible, misusing it can damage your sewer main and leave you with very expensive repair costs, not to mention potential environmental issues and severe water damage. Accessing your sewer also exposes you to hazardous sewer gasses, and failing to seal the sewer properly after work can be very dangerous. It’s always best to hire a professional sewer cleaner near you to handle this type of work.
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.
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.
