Very bad service and they didn't know what they were doing. They said we had bad plumbing , charged me $450.00 and didn't fix the problem. They wanted to open the wall and re do the plumbing for $785.00, I didn't agree. The Next day I had someone else come out and he fixed the problem in 15 minutes. I would not recommend using this company. read more

I recently worked for Mega Rooter in San Diego as a plumbing technician and was being paid 28% commission. Out of a $29,000 project I only received $961. Project took approximately 3 weeks to complete and had over 120 hours. The owner Luis will not take my calls, reply to my emails, so I am left hiring an attorney. Plumbers if you're looking to make standard commission wages don't accept an offer here. read more

The toilet was clogging and water was running and then shower wouldn't drain. Then second bathroom started to bubble. I instantly started to have the sweats and panic attack. Yelped Mega Rooter with the quickness and talked to Kristen who dispatched James over! James is a god send! We just moved in and can't believe we are having plumbing issues!! James was professional and courteous and super helpful! He diagnosed the issues and gave us the best solution and price and he went to work. I'm no time he cleared the issue.. I think the former owners were gorillas! After the drains were cleared and toilets ran right.. James cleaned up after everything. Thank you James and Mega Rooter for the super fast and amazing service! We are overjoyed!!! read more

Miguel and Mega Rooter again have saved the day! Due to the flooding in my condo (see previous review), we discovered that the master bathroom shower drain pipe was extremely corroded and at risk of a major leak. It was a ticking time bomb and the owner of the unit right below me requested that I replace the pipe, something that homeowner insurance wouldn't cover at this time. I was happy to do it but also nervous of the cost and scope of the work required. The owner of the unit below contacted a plumbing company who came out and went on and on about how "big" the job was going to be and that I will have to find someone to cut a large hole near the drain in my shower in order for them to fully assess the situation. They refused to give me a quote until I do that. Ummm, no thank you! I am not destroying my shower and replacing the whole thing just to get a quote. I contacted Miguel instead and he was able to come out the very same day. He reassured me and my neighbor below that he would be able to replace the pipe without having to cut through my shower and none of the extra s*** that the other company was talking about. And Voila, he DID IT!!!! Both the neighbor and I were impressed at his craftsmanship and efficiency. He helped me save so much $$$ and unnecessary drama. read more

When my kitchen sink backed up, I called Mega Rooter. I spoke with Luis who said he would get someone to my house between 12 and 1pm. I was pleased. When no one showed by 1:20pm I called again. I was told someone else would be out. 25 mins later Alex showed up. He was courteous and seemed competent. He did some work that seemed to fix things, but I agreed to a hydro wash the next day at 9am. I was not given a price or est. At 9:05 the next day Alex texted that he was gathering equipment. At 9:45 he wasn't here. I texted again at 9:45am and asked if he was coming and if I didn't hear from him by 10am I would call someone else. He phoned and sounded like I awakened him. At 10:15 he arrived. He gave me an estimate for the previous day's work and hydro wash of over $700. At this point I can't say the work was poor, but I am not pleased with the service or the price. I would not recommend this company. read more

Had a bursting water line under the house, I called Mega Rooter and they were here within an hour to fix my copper pipe quickly.

I would highly recommend this company for your plumbing needs. read more

Dirty technicians, non professional, and very expensive... They usually charge more than the market

Mega Rooter replaced my old cast iron sewer pipes, and overall I was pleased with their work. They were pleasant, easy to schedule with and showed up on time. However, I do have a few concerns: 1. On the day the project was originally set to begin, they showed up to start work without securing a permit first. Replacing pipes requires a city permit, and had I not asked about it I'm not sure it would have been done. This delayed the project for over a month while we waited on the paperwork. 2. I was told the pipe replacement would take 3-4 days, and during the pipe burst I would be without plumbing service for 4-6 hours. This seemed very reasonable. There were apparently some unforeseen complications with the project which resulted in it taking 7 days to complete. However, my biggest concern is that I was left without plumbing service for 3 days. I eventually had to check into a hotel in order to use the bathroom and take a shower. When I mentioned this upon settling the bill, I was asked why I had to check into a hotel. When I explained that I was left without plumbing for three days, I was told, "Oh, I didn't know that. The guys said you were okay with it." No one would ever be okay with being left unexpectedly without plumbing for that amount of time. Had I known ahead of time, I would have made other arrangements for a place to stay, but the only information I was given by the workmen each day was "a few more hours, a few more hours" until it was 8:30pm and they had to leave. It seems as though communication among the various workers throughout the week was incredibly lacking. I was also told (after the fact) that they are supposed to set up a temporary plumbing connection if they have to end the day without finishing the plumbing work. This never happened. Mega Rooter did cover the cost of the hotel stay, which I appreciated. read more

Both my toilets backed up and then I noticed a back up in the back yard, The sewer line was overflowing. I tried to have Mega Rooter snake the sewer lines, Old cast iron pipes. There was a major issue down 6 foot deep. They ran cameras to determine the issue. They dug it up and discovered the drain pipe had completely collapsed, it was so old. They used brand new technology and ran new sewer lines in a about day. I had water back in just a couple days. All was left so clean from all the major work done in my back and front yard. All at a great price and by a very nice professional team of guys that did the work. I highly recommend this company. And will use them in the future. Sue read more

They were quick to come when we had an emergency late one night. And we're able to fix the problem!

Hector came out and quickly assessed the problem. In no time he unclogged my kitchen sink which has been haven't problems. Their prices are very reasonable and competitive. They won't charge you an arm and a leg like other plumbers. I wish I found them earlier since I've been very unsuccessful in trying to get a plumber out for over a week now. They will be my goto plumber moving forward. I highly recommend them. read more

I HATE posting this review... but I called yesterday and made an apt for today 9-10am. Gave them all my info of the apt. No one showed up. I called at 11am and they said they had no record of me for an apt. It was the same person I talked to yesterday ... I asked if they had anyone available and they said yes we have some guys sitting around and can send someone out now. I asked for 1pm so would be between my work meetings. They said yes and texted me that someone would come between 1-3pm. It's 335pm. No one showed up. I had to leave for a work apt. No clue on their pricing or service... but if you don't want to waste your time don't call these guys. read more

Louie from Mega Rooter came out today and helped me with my water heater. He was knowledgeable, very helpful, and refreshing friendly so I didn't have to have my arm twisted over pricing and brand names like some other companies. They gave me a lot of useful information that I appreciate to help me make my new water heater last longer, and some good advice to steer clear of potential plumbing hazards down the line. I'm glad I went with Mega Rooter, it was way less stressful than I expected and much quicker too. Thanks guys! read more

What do you do when your sink goes on strike by spitting up water and refusing to drain? If I knew, I wouldn't have had to call Mega Rooter Plumbing! But thank goodness I did. From the beginning, the company was responsive and kept me updated as to where they were. Luis was professional, quick and extremely knowledgeable. He answered our questions clearly and has the kind of experience necessary to easily respond to the kind of residential emergencies that make people like me bonkers. He fixed our sink and advised us about how we would need to respond to the problem the next time around. A great experience from start to finish! read more
