After positively reviewing this business, I texted for service twice. I left phone messages twice…read more I was told there would be someone returning to my home last Saturday. They were a NO SHOW. Finally, there was a text - The owner apologized for not coming last week, but said nothing about why he didn't return my messages. Also, no appointments were made for future service, even though we had talked about weeding twice a month. I responded with "You ghosted me! You didn't answer any calls or texts. It's been a month, and after I gave you such a great rating on YELP!" His response was "It's not months, 3 weeks. So do you want it yes or no? I responded with "No. You are not reliable." That 5 star review has gone down to a 3. I am very disappointed with the customer service, and the fact that my garden has grown weeds upon weeds upon weeds!

Nelson did an excellent job jetting the main line and warned me about future use (all my fault with the kitchen grease). After I got over the initial price shock, this company is a dream. Prompt, professional, no-BS, efficient, and easy to communicate with. Five stars to Nelson and Andy and Drain Stars.

Candido and his colleague recently established proper drainage around a corner of the house where…read morewater was getting into the foundation and the basement. In his initial assessment, Candido identified all areas which were contributing to the problem and explained what he would do and why (every contractor should do this but it doesn't always happen). He also identified an area contributing to ingress of water to the house that two other contractors missed. His estimate was extremely fair (one contractor quoted a total of $24k for the same solutions). The work was started within days of agreement on the scope of work and it was completed within 1.5 days. Work included excavating and installation of a dry well, regrading and relaying a stone path, and partial repaving of the driveway. He and his colleague even cleared a gutter and replaced and repitched some existing drainage on the side of the house. No trash or mess was left behind after the work was done. It's been a few weeks since the installation and repairs and am relieved to see no water coming into the basement even after several downpours and no damp basement walls. I'm happy we went with Candido and would gladly work with him again on another project.

We used Borges for sewer line replacement. Our interior…read morecast iron line was beginning to leak. A crack developed - and then we saw a leak bleeding thru the foundation wall. The cast iron was 130 years old and had clearly outlived its expected lifespan (75 years for cast iron). We decided to have the sewer line replaced on our schedule rather than when it completely failed. One of our neighbors just had their sewer line replaced by Borges and recommended them, so we chose Borges for the work - and were we glad we did. The owner came out and supervised the job, and the crew completed everything in one day. He replaced about 8' of interior cast iron, then thru the rubble foundation wall and another 10 feet, thru an old septic pit, and then connected to the clay pipe. He fully inspected (along with the city inspector) and determined that the old clay pipe was in perfect shape - saving me THOUSANDS of dollars. His crew was amazing - and left the interior and exterior in better shape than it was before. I highly recommend Borges for any sewer line work!!

I had an incredibly frustrating experience with Rapid Flow regarding a flat roof drain that backed…read moreup 4 separate times over a 6 month period. I was charged for the 4 visits but then they actually waived the fee for the second visit because their first attempt failed after just 4 days. I paid them for 3 separate visits where they repeatedly ran standard mechanical snakes and high pressure jetters through the line without ever resolving the problem. According to their own technicians notes on my invoices, there are structural and physical issues with this line that standard snaking cannot fix. On the second invoice their tech noted a "vent issue" caused by roof drain's trap layout. Then, on the most recent invoice, the technician explicitly wrote that something lodged inside the trap is very hard to get by' and admitted the line 'can close up if more debris goes down.' Instead of addressing these chronic issues, they just kept snaking the line to collect the repetitive fees. Worse yet, on the final visit, the manager, Tom, explicitly stated that a diagnostic video camera inspection would be performed before any high pressure water jetting took place. When I received the invoice, there was no mention of the video inspection. When I questioned the manager, Tom about it on Friday he became extremely angry over the phone, was yelling, and claimed the video was done and would email it to me on Monday. It is now Thursday and I have received nothing from him. The only thing sent to me were 2 pictures taken by technician during their visit. One picture was of the exterior roof basket and the other picture was the top of the drain opening from the outside. I sent them both to Tom saying that was what the technician sent me. They took my money for 3 visits, failed to provide the diagnostic proof they promised, and charged me full price while knowingly leaving a hard object trapped inside the pipe that they admitted will cause it to flood again. Do not trust this company!
