Root Busters you are the bomb!!!!!! When my water heater failed, I messaged through Yelp 3 different plumbers on 12-31 and Root Busters was the only on that messaged me back right away. A gentlemen named Kelli messaged me but I didn't quite understand what he was asking so I ended up calling them the next day on 1-1. I spoke with a very kind and understanding woman on the phone. She told me they can squeeze me in later on in the afternoon. When I expressed that I wanted some time to clean my home and schedule them for a different day. She assured me a messy home was no big deal and she offered a waiver on the call out fee. When the tech Andrew arrived, I apologized for the mess but he said it was no big deal. Andrew was polite, kind, professional, and respectful. My only con (which is why I'm only giving 4 stars instead of 5) is that Andrew didn't know what an anode rod on a water heater was or where was it on the one he installed. This is something that every plumber should know as it is an important part of a water heater. He asked what it was and I explained it to him. After a quick Google search on the new water heater I showed him where it was and he made sure I has easy access to it. If I have any other plumbing needs in the future I will surely reach out to Root Busters. read more

We're very happy to report that Phil and his company, Root Busters, are honest and reliable--an excellent choice for any plumbing needs. read more

Great service! Very responsive, reliable service, and they stand by their work. My new sump pump works great!

We needed a cartridge replaced for the shower faucet and I had botched it on my own. They were able to get this team in the next day (Christmas Eve) and get that and another faucet replaced. We would have been without water if it weren't for them as no one else was able to make it or were going to charge an astronomical price. They had everything we needed with them on their truck and it didn't take long. Thanks Phill! read more

My kitchen drain was a headache during Christmas but I waited until today to deal with it. All the heavy duty cleanup was done, y'know what I mean? But the little everyday headaches were beginning to add up. Anyway, I contacted RootBusters today and they were able to come out almost immediately. Andrew was great. He rodded out my drains and explained everything. He advised me about possibly replacing my disposal (or maybe getting rid of it!) and throughout, he was careful, conscientious, and friendly. I was very pleased. And yes, the drains are working great now! read more

Needed a plumber to properly clear my kitchen drain. It was not an urgent need but had to be done. I contacted Root Busters via email describing my problem leaving my information. I expected to hear from them possibly the next day if not this evening. This was NOT what happened. My phone rang within 5 or 10 minutes. I was informed they could clear my drain and the general cost. I was also informed of discounts (freely informed). I approved them to do the work. They checked their availability and was informed they could be at my house between 1 and 3 TODAY if it fit my schedule. Heck yes! It fit my schedule. At 12:19, Phil contacted me he was on the way. My drain is cleared and checked. Not only was the price fair with a 30 day guarantee but now a plumber for future problems or concerns. If you need a plumber, this is the ONE. read more

Real professional owner- operator. Great value for work done. Was punctual to the given service time.

Great service throughout the entire process. We had an issue with our Ejector pump that failed on a Sunday. Rootbusters were by far the quickest to respond(within minutes) and were out that day (others were as long as 4 days). They were had the replacement pump and were able to install it that day. They were also able to recommend a very good mitigation partner who was then out later in the day. Would definitely use them again. read more
