I am dedicated to providing my clients with the very best in service, installation, and repair to meet your plumbing needs.

I'm known for our quality work and the integrity of my business. We look forward to building long-term relationships with my clients, and guarantee my satisfaction.

"Joe, came to my home to because I had no water. We had agreed upon 8:00 am he text and said he would be there by 7:30. When he arrived I showed him the garage where the house equipment was located. The first thing he noticed was that the water tank switch was installed incorrectly (the switch has been there for 27 years) I had the home built. Then he notice something not up to code. Showed him the well pump and he assess the pump. Joe then tells me my pump failed and would need to be replaced. The price would be 3,500 for the pump and 800.00 to replace the electrical components inside the well. I kindly paid him the $60.00 service fee and said good bye. The next company came at 10:00 am and replaced my pump in about 40 minutes and saved me over $2,000.00! This company stated my wiring was good and everything was fine inside the garage. Folks do your research- if something does not seem right it?s NOT! He left my breaker switch off and turned my range off breaker off!"

"I contracted ARS Rescue Rooter about 2.5 years ago to replace my existing HVAC system with a new unit My contract clearly states that the new system would be covered for all parts and labor for 10 years a a week later it was evident the unit did not have sufficient capacity to cool my TH. countless calls over the following 5 weeks, under threat of a law suite, ARS agreed to replace the unit with a more powerful. 2 weeks later they finally sent in two techs who removed and installed a different unit that seemed to work okay. later, I detected a gas leak emanating from my attic where the HVAC is installed. After several calls they finally sent a tech who insisted to charge me for covered work under my warrantee. Eventually, ARS waved charges. now the thermostat is dead, once again ARS said they'd charge me, I asked to have a manger/owner call me and confirm the work is covered before sending a tech. once again ARS said they'll charge me This is a dishonest company with horrible service "

"Overcharged and poor customer service. My Plumber in fact didn't show up- a contractor did. Unknown to me and with no notice. And his understanding of what the job was didn't match my understanding of the job. The contractor had no paperwork from My Plumber. So I called my phone number for My Plumber, to try to get their representative to talk to the contractor now staring at me in my home. The My Plumber call center person said she couldn't help, and promised another My Plumber rep would call me. They never did. I okayed the contractor to begin the job, with only the hope that he was about to do what I agreed to pay $7000 for My Plumber to do. Fortunately I guessed right. Today I got the "How'd we do?" call from another My Plumber rep. I honestly told her about their poor customer service. Which led to her arguing, talking over me, and interrupting, to include "THAT'S NOT TRUE!" So what would have been a two - maybe three - star rating drops down to one. "

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

If you’re not using a septic system, problems with your home’s plumbing won’t cause this—it’s a city problem. A large blockage in the municipal sewage lines may cause those lines to back up into your home. This is extremely unpleasant and can be a serious health risk due to bacteria and other contaminants. If this occurs, call a pro (or your city) immediately.

Most blockages can be cleared in 1-3 hours, but severe issues may take longer.

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. Keep in mind that the main line is not the same as your home’s sewer lines (which connect to the main line and run to your house). Your city is responsible for any clogs or damage to the main line itself.

The best practice is to hydro jet your sewer line once per year. However, there are several factors that can affect this recommendation, including the age and condition of your pipes, how often your sewer line is used, and the type of waste disposed of in the system. When in doubt, ask a licensed plumber for their recommendation for your plumbing system. 

The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.
