My mother paid these guys (one was basically a kid) $150 to get a pool pipe unclogged. It was…read moreproblem after problem after problem. They said they needed to cut the whole pipe to put a scope through to see where the blockage was. He kept trying to cut the pipe before the water was below the skimmer. Anyone with a brain would understand that's not okay. If he actually manages to unclog it, the pool will drain out and he wont be able to patch it. After my mother corrects him, they drain the pool properly, sorry SHE, drains the pool. He cuts the pipe, does a terrible patch job on it. Then jacks around pretending to work until he is trying to put everything back together and my mother notices that he's not using plumbing tape in a spot where it is needed. When she points out that it won't seal properly without it, he says "I don't think I have any"......a plumber with no plumbing tape.... He said he wasn't going to charge her if he didn't use the scope. He didn't use it. He made my mother do most of the work, made HER supply the most BASIC plumbing material ever and charged her $150. They are lucky that she had a concussion at the time or they wouldn't have gotten a dime. But even WITH a concussion my mother is a better plumber than this guy. Oh. And as he was leaving he says "Well, I think $150 is enough for getting my underwear wet." What do your customers get when you destroy the plumbing on a 30,000 gallon pool? I might ask a lawyer. Don't hire this moron. ESPECIALLY if it's pool work. UPDATE: The patch on the pipe burst after a couple days and a couple thousand gallons of pool water drained out and into our basement. I wish I could upload pictures of the damage this guy did. When contacted about it, he did not respond. It's been five days. Good luck with this business, Rugers. You will need a miracle of biblical proportions to find lasting success.

I called them saying I was sure my vent on the roof was clogged. I've had this happen before . They…read morecame and checked everything but the roof vent.

I've had a number of plumbing jobs done by them, their work is first rate. The technicians are…read moreknowledgeable and polite. The reason I didn't give them five stars is not based on the quality of their work, but on the billing. My bills were often several times more than expected. Some of that is normal--one finds unexpected issues in an older house. My frustration was due to the office. Trying to get details from the office people, about either parts or hours, was like pulling teeth. They hated answering questions, often misunderstanding and overreacting to even a simply enquiry. In terms of parts: if they have to go to Home Depot and get parts, you will be paying for their time to get the parts. That's fine. But from what I could find out, there was also a serious upcharge on those same parts. This may in fact be industry standard, but to me, it seems like double dipping. I would expect to pay an upcharge for parts they keep in stock, but then, I'm not paying for the person's time acquiring the parts. Here, I was paying for both. (I'd recommend going with them to the hardware store and just paying for the parts yourself. The price different is significant.) In terms of time: Hours billed always considerably longer than I expected. Some of that is disposal, etc. But there was a time when the person left before completing a minor task. I had to call him back. It took some time before he returned. I was curious to know: Since this was the technician's mistake, did I pay for all that extra travel time? I never found out. I asked, not for the total hours, but for the times that made up those hours (clearly, you'd need to know the time frames in order to count the time?). Never got an answer. The regular office person refused to answer and finally passed me to her supervisor, who sent me a form email and then never responded to the actual question. Bottom line? If you want the job done well and don't care about details or cost, they're a great choice. I don't see myself calling them again.

Extremely Disappointed - Problem Not Fixed and Overcharged…read more I had a very frustrating experience with Roto-Rooter. I called them to fix a plumbing issue, and not only did they fail to resolve the problem, but they also overcharged me significantly for the service. When I brought this to the attention of the owner, instead of addressing my concerns or offering a resolution, he told me that I would be placed on a list so they would never return to my home. This is completely unacceptable and unprofessional. As a paying customer, I expected at least a basic level of accountability and customer service. Instead, I was met with dismissiveness and what felt like retaliation for speaking up. I would not recommend Roto-Rooter to anyone looking for reliable service or fair treatment. There are plenty of other companies out there who value their customers and stand behind their work. Needless to say, I contacted another plumbing company (Ruger Drain Cleaning) that was reasonably fair in price and fixed my issue was even willingness to come back out at no charge if I still had an issue afterwards. Looking for someone in the Waterloo, IA area I definitely wouldn't recommend them, but would recommend Ruger Drain Cleaning 10 out of 10.
