Our toilets started raising up and not flushing. We had a man come over and clear the vent, which seemed to solve the problem. But then it returned. Meanwhile our drains had always been sort of slow I called Drain Medics to just look down the vent pipe to see if it had really been properly cleared. They have a visual tube to stick down pipes and see what's going on. I thought the vent pipe may not have been fully unclogged. But when Austin arrived he immediately spotted something on the front yard that changed everything. A wet patch right under our window was in fact leaking sewage. With poopoo and all! When he put the visual tube in that big drain pipe we saw the entire inside of a very corroded old cast iron pipe going all the way out some 30 feet. Austin said this rough corrosion would catch T-paper and plug it up. Then in a day or two they'd melt, but then in a few days it'd do the same thing again. Austin told us most plumbers would replace the drain pipe. That would dig up our lovely natural lawn, take several days, and would be pricey. He could do a coring out of the inner corrosion of our pipe and then coat that with a strong epoxy resin which would fix the problem. It's guaranteed for 25 years at about 3/4 the pipe-replacement price,would also save our front yard from destruction, and take only a day. We accepted. Upon further research, I found they were indeed representing the situation correctly and their prices were very reasonable. And moreover they among the few plumbers uniquely qualified to do such repair and at such a price, as this was their specialty. They showed up and did the work brilliantly. I've watched people work and have some experience in the field, and they were top notch. Everything went without a hitch. Again, I cannot praise their professionalism, friendliness, and efficacy enough. Well, a few days have passed. The drains drain faster. The toilets flush better. A job I feel really good about. I consider it among the best investments in our little old casita that we've made. read more

We rarely write long reviews, but Drain Medics truly deserves it. We started having recurring sewer and drain problems that kept getting worse over time. After multiple backups and temporary fixes from other plumbers, it became clear our sewer system was failing. We called several companies and got a wide range of opinions -- everything from full excavation to vague promises of "trenchless" solutions with very little explanation or proof. From the first visit, Robert and the Drain Medics team were completely different. Instead of jumping straight to selling us something, they took the time to properly diagnose the issue. They ran a camera inspection, showed us exactly what was going on inside the pipe, and explained the condition of the line in a way that actually made sense. What really stood out was their real-world experience with sewer relining. Other companies said they offered it, but couldn't show past work, footage, or confidently explain the process. Drain Medics clearly specializes in this -- and it showed. Robert walked us through every step of the relining process, explained why it was the right long-term solution, and answered all of our questions honestly. There was no pressure, no scare tactics, and no upselling. Just straightforward facts and options. The crew was professional, respectful of our property, and incredibly efficient. They restored and relined our failing sewer and drain system without tearing up our yard or home, and kept us informed the entire time. The before-and-after camera footage was impressive, and the final result gave us peace of mind we hadn't had in years. What really sets Drain Medics apart is trust. They do what they say they're going to do, they explain why they're doing it, and they stand behind their work. You can tell this isn't a company that just "added relining" as a service -- this is what they actually do, and they do it extremely well. If you're dealing with sewer issues and want an honest diagnosis, real trenchless experience, and a team that takes pride in doing things the right way, choose Drain Medics. We're extremely glad we did. They also were very affordable compared to other companies!! read more

I offer the highest praise for Drain Medics. If you have drain or sewer pipe issues, you will likely seek multiple opinions, inspections, and bids. You owe it to yourself to allow Drain Medics to investigate your problem and offer a solution. From our first meeting, Austin Sanchez inspired my confidence that he understood what was wrong and how to correct it. All of his employees will impress you with their hard work, and how they make all of their decisions based on what is the right thing to do. You can even see it in how they take care of their equipment. Their pricing is competitive, and they completed a difficult job in the time they had estimated. I will not call anyone but Drain Medics if I have any drain or sewer problems in the future. Neil Hammond. read more

Austin was really great to work with. I used him for a sewer line repair at a mobile home park. I really appreciated his honest approach to the repair. Work was done professionally when he said it would be done. I would definitely recommend and work with Austin again! read more

I am so happy we chose this outfit. We had a slow drain, attempted to snake it myself, then called in a different company to try. They fared no better, and a week or so later things were backing up again. Not fun. Drain Medics came out, put an inspection camera down the pipe (at no charge), and imaged a collapsed pipe in the middle of my living room floor and intruding roots inside the pipe. Disaster. They gave me a competitive quote and left me to contemplate my options. After sulking about that for a few days, we called them back and they quickly scheduled the project, and then rescheduled it at our request. On Monday of this week their crews arrived, took up our carpet, built an airtight enclosure around the work area, and jackhammered their way through the floor and dug 5 feet down to the problem area. This was a PITA for them; contrary to what I told them, our slab is in fact post-tensioned, and they had to work around those supports, and randomly-laid water supply pipes too, before getting to the trouble spot. The root they extracted was as thick as my leg, and the waste pipe split and crushed. No wonder that tree was so happy :-). 2 days later, its done. The new pipe is laid in a bed of rock salt, which will keep the root at bay in that area. The 8 x 3-foot hole in my floor was backfilled, tamped, and re-cemented with added rebar for strength. They took down the enclosure, vacuumed and cleaned up all of the dust, dirt, tools, etc, and we're back in business, and our house did NOT get destroyed with dirt and dust as I feared it might. On Friday one of their business partners will return to re-lay the carpet. Outstanding. When I tell you I was wound up about this project, Austin (head cheese of Drain Medics) can vouch for that. He took my calls after hours, assuaged any concerns I had, was responsive to my ideas, etc. He and his crew also showed up on-time, were considerate of my WFH spouse, and just pleasant and respectful of us and our property at all times. Great crew. I highly recommend these guys, they did a great job for us on a tricky PITA project, they were professional, prompt, and got us a great result. A+. read more

See all

My experience was great. Austin is a very educated young man. He knows his plumbing! He investigated the issue, located the clog and cleared it. The pricing was fair. I would definitely hire Drain Medics again. read more

Austin from Drain Medics changed my water heater, pressure valances and shower head. I highly recommend this business for several reasons: 1- first and foremost Austin and his colleague were extremely friendly, respectful and polite. They were hardworking and honest. 2- I asked him to give me an estimate for jobs in two houses (mine and my parents). Not only he gave me the best estimate of all the companies who checked the job, but also he helped me realize which parts can simply be fixed and don't need expensive replacements 3- the company is responsive and quick to schedule appointments and reliable in showing up 4- methods of payments are all easy and quick Personally if I have any plumbing issues in the future there is no other company I go to. I will call Austin! Thank you Austin and your friend (whose name I didn't catch ) read more

What an amazing experience, I mean, I'm floored! I posted a request to get estimates to have someone come out and help us figure out if we had a leak and where it was coming from. Let me just say that I did receive many responses however all had an estimate to show up and look around. Totally expect this, I require a service and I need to be able to pay for it, especially in this day and age. Austin from Drain Medics plumbing also sent me a message, it said, "tell me more as to what's going on". I explained that for the past year, my water bill had been insane and I finally got fed up. People that fill up their pools use less water than my husband and I. I sent him my number and we spoke soon after that. Austin listens! Austin asked me many more questions as to my issue! Austin asked me to face time him when I got home and he would talk me through a preliminary test that would rule out of it was a main water leak or my irrigation system. My toilets weren't leaking, my faucets are all great, no damp/wet spots on my walls. When I tried what he asked me to do, we narrowed it down to it being my irrigation system. Our system is over 11 years old and has been repaired once. I have also shut it down for a couple of weeks at a time when we were fortunate enough to get rain and it kept our water bill to a much lower "normal". Austin asked me to call him back if I needed anything else again! Austin never charged me anything. He honestly truly cares! What a phenomenal business and a better human being! Yay for Austin and YAY for Drain Medics Plumbing! read more

$310 dollars to snake out a slow running bathtub seems much Nice enough technician, no hard sell and we left things amiable.

Great experience. I'd call Austin to clear my drain anytime. Fast, thorough, neat and clean!

I have used Austin's plumbing services twice in the last two months. His services are fantastic, he's timely and gets the job done! When he was installing my bath fixtures he found a bad drain pipe that needed replacing and stayed longer than planned until he got it replaced. He also installed a Reverse Osmosis water filter system in my kitchen that I am really enjoying. I recommend Austin for any plumbing need, he is neat and very clean! Gordon W. 4/15/22 read more

Austin was very helpful, knowledgeable, great customer service, and I would highly recommend! The most honest and hardworking company you will come across in this industry. Would trust him with my Airbnb drain/plumbing needs any day! Thanks again Austin! read more

I highly recommend Drain Medics they are the best service. Called them for a slow drain that my tenant reported. I spoke to Robert was polite, courteous, and respectful. He scheduled an appointment the next day asking where in Tucson the house was. I got a call from Jack the next day that he was coming out as planned between three and five when Jack was coming over, he called again to confirm that he was going to be there. Jack performed the inspection and found that the drain was draining. OK so he did a courtesy camera Snake down to the street and found a little grease buildup and nothing that would cause a blockage so after all this, they did not charge me. I'll be certain if the slowness cones back, I will be sure to call Drain Medics. I told Tenant to watch for signs like someone showering or flushing the toilet or doing laundry or running the dishwasher at the same time, I'll be sure to call them again. Once the situation Occurs again. Overall give them five stars. read more

Austin was honest from the start about the scope of the work that needed done. It was obvious that about 10' of pipe under the kitchen sink was disintegrated. Also, that it would be a good preventative move to epoxy coat the rest of the lines in the house to avoid any more future slab disruption. Two other drain companies wanted to line the disintegrated pipe under the sink (photo) with an epoxy liner and did not have a good plan for removing the tile for the least amount of disruption. If the tile did have to be removed, it would be all the way across the room! Not necessary! This would have been the end of the tile floor! DM's saved our floor! So for the best up front plan and bang for your buck, call Drain Medics. Austin and Robert approached the job with so much consideration that we really can't thank them enough. They pointed out the need to replace some plumbing line in addition to the drain pipe and at a nominal fee. This was a big job but they accomplished a lot in 5 days. Now all of our drain pipes are either replaced or epoxy coated and insured for 50 yrs! Very fair price too. Thanks guys! read more

Drain Medics - New Drain and replaced plumbing lines too! - Plumbing Near Me

Hire these guys! I would recommend this locally owned and operated company for any drain service you might need. It all began with a clogged shower drain, but little did we know we had some much bigger issues going on with our degrading cast iron pipes. After having multiple companies come out we are so grateful and relieved to have found Drain Medics. Robert and Austin are the real deal. They were honest with the severity of the project right from the get go and kept us in the loop every step of the way. They were able to clean out all of our lines, coat them with epoxy (trench-less lining), and install new clean outs for us at ground level. . . and all for a fraction of the cost of other companies. Do yourself a favor and give them a call. The nicest guys doing honest work! read more

Had a slow-draining toilet and expected a partial blockage in the water pipe. I made an appointment on their website and Austin came out at the appointed time and examined the waste pipe with his digital camera "seesnake". Finding no blockage, he came in and flushed the problematic toilet. He quickly surmised that the problem wasn't with the drain at all, but that the water jets under the bowl rim were partially clogged with calcium build-up from our hard water, causing the bowl to fill too slowly for a good flush. I asked him if I could descale them with a gel acid and he confirmed it, recommending that if that didn't work I should consider replacing the toilet (which is many decades old). He charged me nothing for the visit and gave me a friendly goodbye. Drain Medics is what I would call a great American company. I highly recommend them. read more

Austin came out on a Saturday! Thank you! I'm a nurse and thankful for the quick response and mobile texting of when the company is on route, appointment booking, and he even ran to Home Depot for me to get the right gasket for my garbage disposal I appreciate the time and effort on the weekend especially!!! Highly recommend! read more

Austin and Robert came the day that I contacted them. Found out that the clog was going to take bigger machine. They came back the next day and found other issues that we had to address.

Very professional, courteous, clean and very understanding. We would highly recommend them. read more

I was visiting in Arizona and we had a back up in the kitchen drain and shower drain when we were about to have people arriving for a party. I called Austin and he answered immediately and he arrived 30 minutes later. He knew exactly where to start to investigate the problem and what to do. The issue was solved before the party started! He saved the day. A HERO for sure! Thank you Austin! I would recommend Austin for your plumbing needs! read more

It was pretty close to the holiday season last year when I thankfully was referred to Drain Medics from a friend. These guys did so much great work for us! They replaced the main water line (which was leaking), cleaned our pipes, replaced the drain for one of our tubs, and updated the pipes under our kitchen sink. I really appreciated Austin's approach and how he communicated the plumbing issues to me. There wasn't a lot of jargon, including on the printed invoice, it was really clear what our issues were on paper and in person. read more
