"I've had Greenlee do two fairly complex plumbing jobs and they knocked it out of the park both times. One was a repipe and the other was resloping and architecting sewer pipes. I was super impressed by the team's knowledge and work ethic. Their work quality is also superior to many of the other plumbing companies I've used. Well staffed and well led. Fair prices, lots of experience and knowledge, and great customer service as well."

Customers say: Super punctual

"I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Plumber and our technician, Jonathan! After another plumbing company came out, charged us, failed to clear our sewer line, and then recommended thousands of dollars in additional repairs, we decided to get a second opinion from Mr. Plumber. I’m so glad we did. Jonathan successfully cleared the sewer line and thoroughly inspected it afterward. He took the time to explain everything, answer our questions, and provide recommendations to help prevent future issues. What impressed me most was his professionalism, honesty, and expertise. Unlike the previous company, Jonathan never tried to sell us unnecessary work. After inspecting the line, he explained that the costly repairs we had been told were needed were not actually necessary. Mr. Plumber’s investment in high-quality equipment clearly made a difference. I highly recommend Mr. Plumber and Jonathan for anyone looking for honest, knowledgeable, and exceptional service."

"Fine, then they said I need the "greasetrap" cleaned out. That was an additional $300.00. This is a pattern that many of these companies follow. Wasn't the first time, won't be the last. Next house I buy will be on sewer so I won't have to deal with septic companies or system issues again."

"Wow! Rooter Pro Plumbing 𠪠 is absolutely unprecedented in service in quality! I am amazed at how quickly the phone was answered and how unbelievable sweet and professional the dispatch staff is!! They quickly made adjustments to their schedule to get an emergency crew out to provide relief. The sewer main line was blocked completely, and the images and video Jay and his crew presented to me as a homeowner was very reassuring that this was in fact the cause of the total main failure. Nothing in the house would drain, but blessings to Rooter Pro Plumbing for making this plumbing work again 𠤣 !! Rooter Pro Plumbing provided me an excellent warranty to assure me of their workmanship and craftsmanship. Their work is very clean and they even called me out to look at the replacement pipe before backfilling. I will most certainly, undoubtedly use RPP again!"

"Two men appeared.  They were in my home for about an hour and removed a seized shower handle and replaced a shower cartridge and handle, and the flapper and valve in my toilet bowl.  The toilet bowl fix I have done before, and the only reason I had them do it is because I was most concerned about the leaks in my shower and backyard and I figured I'd have them do that while they were there doing something more important.  However, I do not think that the cost of $208 plus a  $12  trip charge was warranted for replacing the flapper and valve in the toilet bowl and the shower cartridge.  (I also spent $139 in material)
Keep Smiling is transparent about the cost of them coming out no matter what service they are providing.  I have no problem with that.  However, I do not honestly feel that while they were in my home they were not diligent in finding the problem to my leaks. I could have lived with the shower handle problem and I could have fixed the flapper/valve problem myself, my real problem was the leaks in the shower that was coming down to the first floor and the leak out of my spigot in the backyard. Based on what they wrote on my receipt, "Checked out rear spigot for freeze break; house on slab, cutoff to outside spigot under kitchen cabinet, pipes dives back into floor of cabinet.  Needs siding removed to access piping rom exterior."  From my understanding they do not remove siding.  I found that incredulous.  So my understanding was that I would have to find someone else to remove the siding or do it myself in order for them to inspect the pipes from the outside.  I did tell them I was doing a kitchen remodel and they said that when the cabinet is removed that it be looked at from the inside.  But what if the leak was on the outside and all that was needed was to remove the siding!  In addition, I later found out that the leak from my shower did not come from the shower door, as they stated on my receipt, but from a busted pipe behind the wall.  The contractor working on my home renovation found that.  He cut a hole in the bathroom wall from the toilet room side which shares a wall with the shower, and he cut a hole in the ceiling from the first floor to find it.  I would not have mind if Keep Smiling had done that as well, but I was not given the option.
In conclusion, they are nice and professional when on the job site.  However, the price per hour could be better spent.

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

Your sewer line can get grimy quickly. To prevent sludge buildup in your sewer line, pour a mixture of 1/3 cup of vinegar and 1/3 cup of baking soda down each drain in your home once a month. After about 30 minutes, flush the drain with hot water.

Some plumbers recommend 3/4 cup of bleach instead to clean any germs and bacteria that may build up in your sewer line. But this won’t break down any active clogs, and it cannot be combined with vinegar, as the mixture will create a toxic, hazardous gas.

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

No, you should not see water in a sewer cleanout. If you do, it could indicate that you have a block or leak in your main sewer line—which can cause sewage to back up inside your home and potentially flood your yard. Your best bet is to call a local sewer cleaner if you notice any water or sewage around your cleanout.

If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.
