Description of Work: I needed a backed up floor drain cleared quickly. Roots had grown into the main line to our sewer connection again. I remember the price being a bit steep, but they were the only ones who could come out right away, they did a good job, and they had quoted the price over the phone so it wasn't a surprise.

Response from Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Drain Services
Dear Mr. [removed member name], I am so sorry for your poor experience with Roto-Rooter. I have personally looked into your review and I am unable to find a service ticket for you for that date or any date in 2015. I did find two service calls in 2014 for this address. If somehow the listed date is wrong or filed under a different name or a business name, please let me know. I take customer service very seriously and definitely will use this experience for more training with my crew. Thank you again and I hope you will call us in the future.

I had extremely slow running drains in the kitchen and bathroom sinks. When I plunged the kitchen sink, black water came up into the bathroom sink. I put drain opener gel into the kitchen and bathroom sink drains. This helped a little but all the drains were still extremely slow. My usual handyman service said to call Roto Rooter. The Roto Rooter plumber first used their machine to clear the main sewer pipe from the outside access point. This didn't fix the problem. Then he used some other equipment through the kitchen sink. This still didn't solve the problem. He determined the clog was in the plumbing vent. This was at the end of the day and he scheduled me again for the next morning. The next morning he went up on the roof and cleared the vent through the vent outlet in the roof. The drains all run fine now. He spent 4 hours on the job and the price was $245. They charge a flat rate for the job regardless of how long it takes. Considering the time involved and the difficulty of the job this was reasonable, however, if you have a quick job this would be a high price. The company was professional, friendly, and easy to work with. They called my office to let me know when the plumber was on the way so that I didn't have to wait at home for hours. The plumber who came to my house really knew his business. He explained everything to me and also gave me tips on how to avoid the problem in the future. One thing I would do differently next time is to remove all the things from under my sink(s) myself. The plumber removed everything from under my sinks and then put it back. It was a mess. Everything he touched was smeared with black. I had to take everything outside and scrub it all, let it dry and then replace it. It would have been far easier if I had moved the stuff out myself and told him to leave it.
Description of Work: They completely cleared 3 slow-running drains in the kitchen and bathroom.

Called them in the morning and she said they would be out late afternoon. Called around 3PM to let me know it would be a little after 5P before they could get here. Showed up just after 5P. I explained that drains were slow and heard gurgling from second bath toilet when water draining from master bath. They opened septic access and saw toilet paper had caught on baffle and backed up into drain pipe. Cleaned that out and said that baffle was broken and was cause of problem. He suggested that when we next had our septic tank pumped out that we have the baffle either replaced or removed (said that one was not really necessary. Not sure I agree with that.) Had us fill the master tub and then drain it. Everything running fine. He apologized that the bill was so much for such a minor fix, but said it was a fixed minimum charge for anything. We asked about having an outside faucet installed in the future and he gave us a round about price range (which is all we wanted.) He said he would tell his office we might do the faucet in the future, No regrets. Really nice guy. Took care of problem promptly.
Description of Work: Slow drains. We have a septic tank, so they opened that up first. Toilet paper was stuck at the baffle. He clean it out and explained that baffle was broken and was causing paper to get caught on it, which created a plug of paper back up the pipe to the house.

It went great. The pricing was very reasonable. As far as I know we explained everything to the rental and then later talked to them. It was the first time we have used them on a mobile home. We were looking for a mobile home in many places and Roto-Rooter was very happy to do it. They said they do it all the time and I said okay. I would rate them highly. I will absolutely use them again in the future.
Description of Work: I used Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Drain Services. They repaired a leak in the hot water heater.

Excellent. Johnny arrived from Bloomington and was extremely pleasant from the minute he walked in. I have been trying to do things myself since my husband passed away so I was continually asking questions. He didn't mind a bit. When I was asking questions, he was explaining what he was doing or was going to do. I truly dreaded calling a plumber and went for a over a year with only cold water in my bathroom sink and hot water in the kitchen. Finally my bathroom sink wouldn't drain at all after numerous times of using Drano and Mr. Plumber. So, I gave up and called Roto-Rooter. It was such a great experience and it's so nice to have hot and cold water in both sinks and the bathroom sink to drain. I'm extremely pleased.
Description of Work: The hot water in my batheroom sink wouldn't stop running and the cold water in my kitchen sink was only a trickle. Also I had used Drano and Mr. Plumber to keep un-stopping my sink in the bathroom. Johnny from Roto-Rooter in Bloomington, IN came right on time and immediately found the problem with the kitchen sink cold water problem. There was a filter underneath that was clogged. He said I could change the filter or turn off the filter. As a widow, I didn't even know I had a filter underneath. So once he disconnected it, the cold water ran fine. As for the bathroom, the faucets were very old and I did buy a new once just in case I needed it. He replaced the faucets but the drain pipe was completely filled with a pastey goo. I said I would like a new one and he left and returned and replaced it as well. It took a hack-saw to get the drain piece from the bathroom bowl. He saved me the cost of a new kitchen faucet and I was able to return it. The labor for approximately 2 hours, a trip out and back with a new part, and fixing both sinks for 300.00 I thought was very reasonable. He was very professional and explained everything he was doing and asked many times if I had any questions. I am very satisfied with Roto-Rooter and will definitely use them again if needed.

They did fine. It was a mobile home and I had a lot of trouble finding someone who would work on a mobile home. It was difficult finding someone to do what I needed done. They responded within 24 hours.

Very pleased with their work.
Description of Work: After we had some hardwood floors installed, a painter used our small guest bathroom and noticed there was water flowing out in the garage from the bathroom area. Called RotoRooter and they came out in a timely manner, and fixed the problem ---the floor installers had not placed the toilet seal on properly. The plumber was professional, efficient and cleaned the area well. We will use this company again,

They did a great job. They were prompt and efficient. They were understandable to our situation. He explained to us if we dug the whole ourselves we would save $1000. So we did and it saved us a lot of money. We really appreciated it. I think it was $75 just for the call and then they charge hourly.
