"Joe does all his own work himself. We were on a tight schedule and he was able to come the same day I called. He didn’t just plug the leaks, but replaced the connecting pipes. He took out the old system and disposed of it for us. He was done quickly and left no mess."
"Tom replaced my kitchen faucet and two bathroom faucets and did an absolutely excellent job! He was extremely professional and the cost was much lower than what I expected! While here he also took care of a slow drain with my master tub and it now drains perfectly! I would highly recommend him to anyone with any plumbing needs!!"
"Mr. Rooter of St. Augustine is punctual and fast. He found the problem right away, fixed it. The price was reasonable. He pulled the carpet and followed the trail of moisture to the sink, turned on the faucet and knew exactly that it was a slow leaking drain basket in the kitchen. When I called he was here within 30 min."
"Everything, from the design to the installation, went very well. Chino and his crew were very professional and went above and beyond to make my front yard looking unique and very high end.

". They arrived on time, did the job quickly. Answered a couple questions I asked about possible future jobs-didn't try to up.sell me. I thought I had located a really wonderful plumber that I could count on in the future. That is until later-this townhouse in FL is not a home I am in very often-our daughter lives there full time-but isnt.Ms Handy. Later I went to do dishes and discovered that the sink has separated from the granite and has a large open gap on the same side where they just replaced the drain. They did NOT cause this problem however they did not bring it to my attention either and my discovery was to late in my visit to do anything about it -so I must return again.They knew I was there to wait on repairmen to fix the house issues (AC and electrician were also coming)-I dont know if they thought I would ask them to fix it and they didn't want to but I can not believe they didn't notice it.

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts
It can take anywhere from half an hour to a few hours to fix a main line clog, depending on the cause and severity of it. The job should not take more than a day to complete.

Your city is responsible for any clogs or damage to the main line itself.

Your plumbing pro will be able to recommend the right service depending on the clog size, frequency of issues, and surrounding pipework.
