We had a very slow-draining toilet backup, couldn't even shower in our house because the sewer line was so clogged up and it would start backing up into the downstairs toilet. We talked to two other plumbers, both said we needed a new sewer. Then we contacted C.A. Taciak and Sons and they let us know the issues with our pipes were typical for any old Baltimore home, and all we really needed was a high-pressure water jetting to clear them out. It has been over two years and no problems. And it was less than a fifth of what one of the other companies was going to charge us, and about a third of what the second company would have charged. Honest, friendly, highly recommend!

During this visit, Jason and Phillip had to battle a sewage pipe that hasn't been cleaned in over 20 years and was 100% backup. If I could give Jason and Phillip 10 stars, I would! Service that Jason provided was professional, courteous, and exceptional. First of all, Jason really listened to what I have to say. I told him that I did snake thing and got nowhere. Instantly he told me that I need a water jet (PLUS) but he wants to come out in person to give me a free consultation. (PLUS PLUS). Even though it is a big task, Jason put my parents' worries at ease by giving them a 100% working guarantee. (PLUS PLUS PLUS) Jason and Phillip brought in the machine and went to work for 3 hours. Throughout the process, they provide constant feedback and update. (PLUS PLUS PLUS PLUS) Then, they cleaned up and left for a few hours to let the chemical solution do its work and fully clean out the pipe. At 10PM!, Jason and Phillip stopped by and finished the job. (PLUS PLUS PLUS PLUS PLUS) Thank you Jason and Phillip for a job well done! On a side note, before I called Jason, we had the very unpleasant experience of calling a Roto-Rooter Plumber. Before the plumber started working, I told him about our drain issue but he didn't listen and insisted that he can fix the issue and gave us a guarantee of 30 days. Otherwise he would not charge us. After spending 20 minutes and could not fix the issue, he recommend someone to do the job and will only charge us half of what he quoted. Not only he could not fix the issue but he tried to con us into paying. What a useless company. That is why it is so hard to find a good company that you can trust. Take my word, you can definitely trust Baltimore Sewer Services to do a good job!

Now that the house in question has been sold, I can feel free to publicly air this issue…read more Jason Tart, the owner of Baltimore Sewer Service, is not licensed as a plumber, who does horrible work that causes damage to people's homes and health, and continues to get away with it. I am speaking from a combination of personal experience and professional knowledge of the law, as well as familiarity with public records in Maryland. Everything I say is true and verifiable, and I will provide screenshots as evidence. Tart has been repeatedly charged with and convicted of performing plumbing services without a license, in violation of Maryland Business Occupations and Professions 12-601, a misdemeanor carrying a penalty of up to 6 months' imprisonment per violation. He uses the Internet to lure unsuspecting customers to employ him for serious issues that he has no training to handle. Some, like myself, experience substantial damage to their property as a result. Others, like a couple I met in court, dealt with not only property damage but extreme health complications due to his misuse of chemicals on their sewer line. http://casesearch.courts.state.md.us/casesearch//inquiry-index.jsp breach of contract cases: District Court 080400006882002 District Court 080400242712002 Baltimore County Circuit 03C03012593 District Court 080400319502004 In our case, Tart promised to provide us with a free video scope of our sewer line, which an earlier, honest and licensed plumber, had told us was not at fault, but rather that there had been a collapse on the part of Baltimore City's line in the middle of the road. We were lured in by this promise, the outstanding (apparently fake?) reviews, and his professional looking website. When he arrived, he claimed that his result had contradicted our earlier scope of the sewer line. He promised to get the issue fixed for a price that was lower than the market rate. Thinking we were dealing with a licensed plumber with a good reputation, we agreed without getting a third opinion. Rather than following appropriate protocol, getting permits or using heavy machinery to dig in our yard, as required by the work and the law, Tart hired a couple of day laborers to dig with hand shovels until they not only struck but actually broke our sewer line...but only after cutting into it in our basement and using a garden hose to supposedly try to flush it out - causing a small flood. Ultimately, he declared that, seeing with his own naked eyes rather than the seemingly fictional scope, that the blockage was over the property line and the responsibility of the city, in an effort to con us into continuing to entrust him. We didn't fall for it. My wife immediately demanded a return of all our money (which he provided), I found out that he was not licensed, and in fact had a history of working without a license, and filed a complaint with the plumbing board, to deal with the damage he had caused. I eventually saw him in court and settled for less than I should've, rather than seeing him go to jail, because I figured he was potentially dangerous and I didn't want to try my luck while he knew where I lived.

They just show up when you are in the middle of something. Zero communication with this company unless it is time to get your CC number and payment. They travel at warp speed to payment.
