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.

Hi! I had an extremely impressive and happy turnout with my plumber on 2-2-26. Anthony came and was…read moresuper friendly and very informative. He did not rush me. He talked to me in a way I could understand without seeming annoyed about having to do that lol. He was professional but relatable which is exactly what I want in any service person. My problem was nowhere near as bad as my morbid mind took me to think it could be. And even though it was already late into his long day and still had many more emergency frozen pipes jobs he still made me feel valued and not rushed with all my questions. I found the company by posting on NEXTDOOR. They were the first to respond and I was Ghosted By another company who was "the best in the business" who set me up for an insanely early appointment only to no call no show. So I was worried now and reached out to CROUSSE to make sure they were definitely coming still and they said they would never not come to a customer. No matter the time. Every step of the way even when running late I was given up to date info. They kept in touch and positive the whole time. I cannot recommend them enough. I will most definitely be using them again and anyone who needs a reliable, communicative, professional, knowledgeable of their craft plumber please do not hesitate to contact CROUSSE PLUMBING. And to top it off with a cherry on top if possible ask for ANTHONY! You will not be disappointed in the least. And while I know finances are extremely important in this harsh economic time just know that out of all the companies I contacted and all the ones that did do estimates and evaluation their pricing is unmatched. considering I contacted a company that literally has GOD in their company name and they were the absolute highest just for an evaluation ($179). I hope this helps someone because they sure helped me and I was beyond impressed. I very rarely leave reviews. Only when it is especially deserved. And this is one I am proud to leave a glowing review for!

I literally paid and the company took of everything. 4 years later. No air conditioning issues and no issues with the boiler that was just installed.
