There work is all spot on. The price is absolutely fair. The technicians know exactly how to do the work and they do it without messing up anything else. They always pick up the mess and leave it the way you would like to see it. I have used them for years I highly recommend them.

Vernon showed up in a timely manner, answered more than a few questions and concerns, checked all drains thoroughly. Inspected everything, advised me about types of detergents to use so I don't have the foamy problem. Vernon was very polite and respectful and thorough. I would recommend this company, they are excellent and reasonable.

Snake was removed, drain made to flow freely, leaks around fixtures sealed, and recommendations given to correct tile issues. Work was done quickly, pleasantly, and professionally. Recommendations were followed with excellent results. Total experience with Drain Surgeon really exceeded expectations. Cost was far more reasonable than any plumbing service I've ever dealt with.
Description of Work
Bathtub/shower drain was blocked, water getting thru tiles, plumbing snake was stuck in drain.

They are the only ones in this area that are any good. They are the only ones that we would recommend. They were the best quote and the most sensible people. They always come the same day.

They are in the process of a big job for me. They are doing a new sewer pipe all the way from the house to the main.

He unplugged it and also had to adjust it. The plumbing is on the outside of the home in a building its not with the main plumbing so it was a little crazy. The cost wasn't as much as I had thought it would be, I think it was under $300. There was just one plumber and it took him about two hours to complete the work. I graded a B overall because it wasn't a perfect fix but so far its been okay. He left the area very clean, and was the nicest part of the whole thing. He was very friendly and didn't waste time.

I have used them two other times before in the last three years and I really like these people. Patrick is the guy I use. He is throughly professional, very straight up recommends products and I like the products that he has recommended. He is prompt, and courteous. I love them. The price was perfectly reasonable.
Description of Work
For plumbing, I use the Drain Surgeon. They disconnected a gas stove and reconnected it. They disconnected a sink and re-installed the sink. We were doing a remodel and they just had to do a disconnection and then come back and do a re-connect.

It is a very tight space. It is one of these like vanity room areas. It's a very tight space and they needed a certain size. It was a challenge getting in there to really get it done. Even for a weekend warrior handyman, it would have been a challenge. I think generally it is the selection of the particular commode. It was a challenging install and they did a great job with it.
Description of Work
They did a complete commode toilet replacement.

It was $205 with parts and labor. They recommended quality parts. I didn't know where to go and whether it was fixable. They recommended a complete replacement and a real quality system you could tell.

Patrick came and immediately knew what to do and where to start. He immediately started outside at the clean out site in the yard and got immediate results. He located the runoff that we hadn't found since we moved in recently. He made sure that all of the drains in the house were clear before he left.

Same day service! Called Drain Surgeon at 8:15 am on a Monday morning. Spoke with a very pleasant woman on the phone who seemed to understand the issue and assured me it wouldn't take long or be too expensive to repair. A plumber arrived a few hours later and the entire problem was fixed in less than an hour for about $80. Would definitely use them again.

I had broken the closet flange when removing the old toilet so I called The Drain Surgeon plumbing company and was told a plumber would be out the next day. When Marvin, a professional plumber with The Drain Surgeon company, arrived June 25th, he was extremely professional in speaking with me as I led him to where the problem was. He wasted no time in getting the problem fixed. I thought it would take a few hours, but it only took him about 20 minutes, I was floored. When I went in to check his work, it was impeccable. The old toilet used to rock side to side. He installed a new flange, stopped the rocking, grouted around the base and installed a new water line. He did all this in 20 minutes and left the area cleaner than it was when he arrived. I will waste no time in calling this firm back in the future.

I live on a large corner lot and had never had the drain line serviced before and did not know where the plumbing dig out was or even where the line was located. So technician had to spend lots of time and effort locating the drain line outside. It took him almost an hour just to locate the drain line thru no fault of his own. I will certainly remember where it is now and will mark the location. He was very innovative in finding the line outside. After that, work proceeded quickly and the blockage was located and corrected. He then replaced the leaky valve and the wax seal on the downstairs toilet, replaced the toilet and cleaned up after himself. He was very efficient and professional and had a very pleasant demeanor. It was an overall very good experience and i would call them again. FYI, from time of arrival to work completion was a little over 3 hours, but no time was wasted. He was alone and did the job as efficiently and quickly as was possible.
Description of Work

He was on time, was reasonable, took care of the problem and she was happy with it. I looked the company for her on Angie’s List. I was using him too but he won’t come this far up for me. He told her upfront what his price was for per hour. He finished the job. He found the problem, corrected it, was there and going. He showed up when he said he was going to show up. She was very happy.

Called Drain Surgeon and they came out that day. The leaking pipe was one that wrapped around a corner. They removed the pipe that wrapped around the corner, replaced a faucet at pipe end that came out of house, and recovered it with my faucet cover for winter. Now I don't have to worry about this problem ever again. Thank you very much Drain Surgeon.
Description of Work
Had a pipe leak in two places after freeze, in spite of being wrapped with foam insulation pipe wrap. Water spewing.
