Weird roofing tool? Embedded in sew drain line  taken by drain doctor

basement laundry sink ("slop sink") completely clogged with poop! Matthew worked on my 1/2-old house(1855) cast iron sewer line (2 family dwelling- One exit to main sewer line) completely filled with "wipes" from other side! AND worse! Somehow a roofing tool or some yellow handled tool had fallen into the sewer line and was embedded diagonally in the cast iron drain pipe about 7 " from entrance where both house pipes connect to main sewer line out. Matt had to go get a smaller eel drilling snake thing. Some of the wipes were hung about the tool like an odd ghost. Matt was Was very professional , highly recommend . A day later Clogged, the sink and washing machine in basement close to sewer exit pipe ! Matt came back, removed more wipes, spoke with other-family (renters) owner in China, please requesting No More Wipes unfortunately more work to be done- (not Drain Doctor) but a different company must cut line to remove weird embedded tool.Thank you Matt.

Unclogged the drain but left a huge mess. Dude was pretty surly, but I could see it's a crappy job.

My tenant's bathroom sink was leaking - a lot! I do not have a plumber whom I know personally, but…read moreTom came highly recommended by a few friends we have in common at various ski houses. Plus, with so many positive Yelp! Reviews ... Tom was incredibly responsive and despite having a booked schedule, managed to squeeze my job in. He is professional, knowledgeable, a great communicator, and has an easy going disposition --- which in my experience can be a challenging combination of positive traits that isn't always easy to find. He came out as scheduled, took a look at not only the sink, but also had to move some ceiling panels in the basement (not an easy feat to access) to diagnose the issue. Within just over an hour, my tenant's sink was fixed and the area Tom worked in was cleaner than how he found it. His rate was completely affordable. He also gave some additional advice regarding updating my home's plumbing for the future. I would highly recommend Tom for any / all plumbing needs. Highly.

I wouldn't use this plumber again. He spent a large chunk of the time for looking for stuff in his…read moretruck - which he charged me for. I was very clear about what I needed - a standard sink mount. He worked at a pokey pace. I did not get a sink mount - but cheap metal brackets you can buy for 97 cents each ($60 parts). One of the brackets is installed incorrectly and wiggles - it's not tight. He also drilled into my kitchen cabinets - unnecessary if a proper sink mount had been used.

I had what I consider a small job: replace two non-working shut-off valves from my kitchen water…read moreline, and one for the toilet water line. I must have called eight different plumbers or companies. Three would not provide free quotes or estimates, and they would have charged outrageous service call fees that one has to pay regardless of whether one accepts their quotes. Three companies offered free estimates and quotes. One quote was so ridiculously high, and when I questioned the price they described that the price included "Isolating water supply to unit by means of water main; relieving the pressure...." and the list went on and on, including a ridiculous list of normal steps for any plumbing job, including checking for proper functioning and leaks, as if these were the reason for the high costs listed on their estimates. It was a bit insulting. Petros was the last person I called, and he was refreshing. He asked for pictures of the valves in question, and before he gave me any quotes over the phone, he explained the options for repair and recommendations. He described the cost of the different types of valves (spoiler alert---they are not that expensive)--and explained his fee. No, he was not cheap, but I so appreciated the no-nonsense explanations and upfront pricing. I knew what the job was going to cost me, and exactly how much of the cost was going to materials vs. labor. Old fashion-business model and transparency that I appreciate. When he came to the house, he was friendly, efficient and professional; he explained and showed me what he did and what was wrong with the valves that were broken; and left the premises clean when he was done. He is a two-man company/team, so I cannot attest to how it would work calling him for larger jobs or emergency jobs, but I will definitely use his services again in the future.
