"They responded quickly. Through in what they did and gave me options. I thought the price they charged to remove and install a toilet was high but I would rate everything else 5 stars"
"We had the initial problem on a Sunday and the other companies we called charged very high rates just to come out on weekend. Nathan did not charge us extra for a Sunday call. We thought the problem with our backed up toilet might be clogged all the way to our septic system, but he explained that it was only right under the toilet. He then told us our old toilet was not flushing sufficiently and we contracted for a new toilet for about the same price as we thought the initial cost of clearing the drains might be and would have been if we had used another service just to come and take a look. Although it was not an easy fix to replace the toilet and he had to come back twice to fix the flange under the toilet, he came back, did the job correctly and did not charge extra for the additional work. He also cleared the drain in the bathroom sink without charge. We would definitely call him again and recommend him to others."
"I hired this company to repair leaking toilet & leaking bathroom faucet. They replaced rubber o- rings on faucet & gasket between toilet & tank. No mention of cost for O-rings & gasket for toilet. Charged me 365.00 for service. Won't be calling them again. Could of bought new toilet & bathroom faucet for that price."
"The plumber from Mr. Rooter arrived when he said he would, gave us an estimate and set a time to do the work. He was very professional. We would hire him again."

Yes, continuing to flush a clogged toilet is not likely to break up the clog. Instead, it will continue to put pressure on the clog while filling the bowl with more water, which can potentially cause the toilet to overflow—leading to an even bigger mess. Rather than repeatedly flushing, use a toilet plunger or plumber’s snake to dislodge the clog.
It is safe to flush the toilet even if the pipes are frozen, and this may even help clear out the pipes. But if the supply line is frozen, the toilet won’t refill itself until it’s thawed out. You can still flush by pouring water into the tank to refill it.
Hiring an emergency plumber is expensive because of the urgency and inconvenience, but there are a few things you can do to help keep costs down:
Minimize water damage by shutting off your water main
Clean up pooling water immediately to reduce damage and mold growth
Avoid using fixtures if you have a clog or septic system backup
Verify that your plumber is licensed before hiring
Call a few plumbers for estimates if you can afford a short delay in getting service
The Thanksgiving holiday period is one of the busiest times of the year for plumbers. Both Thanksgiving Day and the day after, often called Black Friday or "Brown Friday" by plumbing professionals, see a significant increase in service requests. This is because a house full of guests, large holiday meals, and unfamiliarity with the home's plumbing can lead to clogged drains, garbage disposal issues, and sewer line backups. Outside of the holidays, the busiest weekdays for plumbers are typically Monday and Tuesday, as many people discover plumbing problems over the weekend but wait to call for service. Despite the holiday, you can rest assured that many plumbers work on Thanksgiving and Black Friday to handle the surge in emergency calls.
Yes, and no. Your shower, toilet, and sink all connect to the same main drain, but the secondary drains going from each fixture to the main drain are usually separate. This isn’t always the case—especially in older homes—but since toilets contain black water and showers, tubs, and sinks have grey water, toilets are more regulated and come at a greater risk of contamination. It’s best to keep these drains separate using individual waste collection for this reason.
