We called Prodigy for a backed up drain. Trent came first and said they would run a camera first to determine the issue, but he was waiting for his boss to come. His boss arrived, asked a few questions, and said that we needed to descale our sewer line for $4500 or replace the whole sewer line for $7500. I told him that I had no idea what these things cost, so I would call around to a couple of plumbers to find out if this pricing is about right for this task. After calling around, both plumbers I talked to asked if he had snaked the drain and/or run a camera to determine if descaling was what we needed. I went back out to talk with the boss, who told me that he didn't snake it because he has 30 or 40 years of experience and he knows that's what we need. When I questioned him again about the need to clear the line and determine what was needed first, he seemed to get agitated. We couldn't use any plumbing, so I was desperate and asked them to snake the line and then we would figure out what we wanted to do next. He made it clear that he didn't agree with me. He said we were going to continue having problems because descaling was what we needed. I said we weren't ready to do that, and requested that they clear the line. They came in and spent 4 minutes (max) snaking the drain, told me the line was cleared, and got on their way. A simple Google search shows that snaking a drain takes 15-45 minutes. The effort here was abysmal. A few hours later, we, again, had a sewage back up. Obviously not trusting the company that diagnoses based on experience instead of examination and spends no more than 4 minutes to snake a drain, I had a different company come out the next day. They spent 20-30 minutes clearing the whole sewer line and ran a camera through to determine the issue. THE INSPECTION SHOWED NO NEED FOR DESCALING. DOING SO WOULD HAVE BEEN A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY. They found no mineral deposits, roots nor corrosion build up. The company cleared the drain. There are a few spots with a positive slope and replacing those sections (or the whole line) is recommended. Had we gone with Prodigy, we would have had an expensive line descaled unnecessarily, and we still would have had to deal with the positive slope issue. I've had a good experience with prodigy in the past, but this lack of professionalism and integrity was shocking. I will not take the risk of calling this company again.

Another great experience with the Prodigy Plumbing team. Ariel is a great communicator and kept me well informed. James and Trent communicated well and provided the quote. Field Manager Carlos stopped by a few times to make sure that the work was progressing well and that we were satisfied. The field service team was great to work with and kept us informed of progress. Marcos, Fred, Boii and Victor worked hard and efficiently to ensure that the plumbing was repaired correctly to last for years. They cleaned the areas to look like they were never there. Very satisfied with the end result and constant communication. I will use Prodigy again.

See all

Primo Plumbing & Heating

(116 reviews)

We had an urgent water heater issue -- a 24-year-old tank that was leaking right at the TPR valve…read more-- and Primo Plumbing came through fast and did excellent work from start to finish. Jordan was on-site within 30 minutes of my initial call and had an offer to us quickly after evaluating the job. Beyond being efficient, he was just a great guy -- he took the time to bond with our golden retriever while he walked the site, which says a lot about someone. Aaron and Charlie handled the installation and were fantastic. They showed up on time, were professional throughout, and even cleaned up the old enclosure before installing the new unit. When they left, the whole area looked better than before they arrived. It's great to support a local Long Beach business that can move quickly, price fairly, and still accommodate what we needed. Highly recommend Primo for anyone dealing with a water heater issue -- responsive, honest, and quality work all around.

Aaron was professional, quick, efficient, and most importantly, honest. There was absolutely no pressure or trying to upsell us. He explained exactly what happened, showed us the actual parts causing the problem, and made sure we understood everything. The job isn't completely finished yet because we're waiting on a part, but Aaron was very upfront about the timing and set realistic expectations in case the part arrives late. Most importantly, he took care of our main issue right away, which was such a relief! Great service, great communication, and genuinely kind people. I'm very glad I called Primo Plumbing and would highly recommend them!
