What a completely horrible company. I called them last Thursday to set up an appointment to fix our toilets. They were supposed to be here between 10 am and 2 pm on Friday. They called around 11 and said they would be late. We received several calls from them throughout the day saying "we were the next appointment". Then they called and said the plumber would be here at 9 pm. At 9:30 pm they called again and said the plumber would be leaving his current job at 10:30 pm and would be at our house at 11:30 pm. Needless to say w... read more

Our 50 gal. water heater leaked and flooded the utility room, which is carpeted. Roto-Rooter's office staffer and on-site supervisor stated that they could replace the water heater and mitigate the water damage, including removing mold, damaged carpet and subfloor as needed. The water heater was replaced the day the call was made, June 7, 2021. On June 8 most of the carpet was removed, but wet carpet was left under the new water heater, washer, and dryer. Some of the carpet padding was removed, but much of it was left on the... read more

They was very responsive, addressed the problem, and was told the work was gonna cost $8500 dollars, I had no choice do to a holiday weekend and couldn't use water due to my drain collapsed in my front yard and coming up my drain in basement which flooded basement, after work was done ,I found out from a plumbing contractor that that should of only cost $4200 at most for the scope of work. They took advantage of me in a vulnerable situation, they are complete rip offs.

on June 5th, I called for an appointment. I was told I was told between 7:30am & 9:30am I agreed to the appointment . There was an email but no confirming call so I called after 10am, only to be told that there were backup and could not be seen until another day. Yes I cancelled I felt that they should have contacted me about their scheduling problems, I would have respected that update. I had an overflowing toilet back into the tub from the floor drain. could not wait. a waste of time I could have had another plumber give t... read more

We had roto rooter come into our home on Monday May 24 2021. It took three techs and three different trips to find a blockage just before the street. Gave us a couple of quotes. We set it up for them to come into our home to clean it up. Which we hard already started to remove the carpet and had removed all the standing water. They said stop and they would clean and remove the affected area. They should up Sunday memorial day weekend. Stating that they couldn't haul away anything as the truck was full. This crew left black t... read more

If I can give 0 stars I would. I had their drain services last week and experience the same issue the day after, decided to rent a drain snake from *********and see if we have any lucks. Unfortunately, the drain is still clogged up. and decided to call the day after to ask if they have any warranties for their work. They told me normally don't give warranties for their work, and I have to call within 24 hours to see if I have any luck with the warranties. THAT just a lame excuse for not cover their work. Stay away from this ... read more

Scheduled to get jetting in water and sewer pipes due to an overflowing toilet and slow draining bathroom sinks. Prior to visit my husband took off toilet to initially try to snake himself, but failed. A co-manager of mine recommended this company and so I was confident we would be happy with the results. I was given a window time and no one showed up. I had to go into work, so I had my 20 year old son stay home just in case they showed up. Three additional hours after window time someone showed up. We would assume the job w... read more

First technician was here under an hour said he found no roots or blockage, while my entire lower basement had just been covered in raw sewage. I had to ask this technician to run the water to make sure he cleared the line as he had said. He left after the water ran one minute, 3 minutes later my bathroom downstairs was getting coated again. Second technician the next day snakes outer line but not inside line because the other technician had noted no blockage said my line was clear. This just after they had cut out my drywal... read more

I was grossly over charged for a replacement of an ejector pump. It occurred on a holiday and was told that he charges extra for work on holidays although Roto Rooter says it doesn't allow. One hour and a half of work and was charged $1950!! 755 for labor and $1211 for the part. Customer Be Ware!!!!
