Kurtis was friendly and super efficient.
Scheduling was easy and the work was done in a timely matter.
They got my sink sorted out, on the weekend, in less than a couple of hours. Excellent work, tidy, and polite.
Definitely recommend. Friendly, courteous, fast. Explained repairs and suggestions on how to avoid in the future. Respectful of home. Best service experience possible.
Professional and answered all my questions. Quick and clean. Thank you
The work done was great, drain cleaner was very knowledgeable.
My experience today with Brian, Alexander and Tyrone was indeed exceptional. All excellent communicators. Brian cleaned out the main line and explained process and results clearly, suggested a product to keep inside pipes clean. Tyrone used a camera to photograph the inside of mainline and identified many problems…
Great fast service
Andrew was great - again. I was happy to see him. He quickly and thoroughly diagnosed the issue and repaired the problem. He was thorough in explaining how the sink clog occurred, and gave me some pointers on how to delay this happening again. I would highly recommend him! Mitch Bugge
Great service!
Everything from the phone call to having the tech here went smoothly. Elijah was friendly, knowledgeable and took the time to thoroughly explain what he did and how to prevent a back up from happening again. I hope I don't need to call them again for a while but if I need to I definitely will! 10/10 recommend!
Stephen did a great job, I give him a 10!
We had a plug in the toilet that was made worse with a fallen comb. Rotor Rooter was the best in terms of response and sending a man out. Repair was quick, considerate and affordable for the work.
Great service!!
Elijah and Tim came out to inspect my drain since I noticed water backing up when I did laundry. They found the problem and were able to get repairs scheduled in a matter of days. They were very professional and explained things to me in an easy to understand way. I recommend them!
Service experience was perfect. Fast and friendly, arrived on time, took care of the issue at a fair price. Only disappointment was that they sent a water cleanup salesperson unannounced. We had no need for that service and he didn't even remove or cover shoes when entering our home.
Jeff is an excellent worker. He cleared my clogged sink in a timely manner. He is professional, friendly, and explained the problem to me in non technical verbage. I highly recommend Jeff for drain cleaning problems.
After an initial scheduling snafu, the technician came out and handled our greasy, linty clog quickly. They tested the drain to ensure it was flowing properly. Also give me some quick guidance on preventative measures.
Very friendly, came in a very quick time, fixed the drain with no issue! Thank you!
Andrew was great. Andrew provided an explanation of his process and the improvement that will occur once the process is complete.
Did an amazing job helping with our sewer issue - highly recommend!
We had an issue with our drains that we just couldn’t seem to figure out, and Kurtis from Roto-Rooter came out and took care of it! He snaked our drains, found the problem, and actually solved the issue. Kurtis was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly knew what he was doing. He took the time to figure…
Your employee was friendly and we were able to discuss our plumbing concern with him easily. He suggested what we coukd do to prevent another occurrence
Curtis was our technician. He was super friendly, quick to get out here and great at explaining everything to us!

They were quick to arrive, within an hour of our phone call. The service was superb. Our tech was friendly and went over everything he did thoroughly.
Adam was fantastic! He was very personable and he did a great job fixing our drainage problem. Highly recommend Roto-Rooter.
Jeff was extremely professional and friendly and he was out to our place within about 1.5 hours of making the call, and this was evening time. Can’t beat that service!
Knowledgeable, professional, and efficient. Basement floor drain is handling water fine. Will call again. Thanks
Kurtis was great! He made sure the issue with my floor drain was solved before heading out. Awesome pricing, and friendly staff!
Brian and Tim were knowledgeable and professional. Cleaned out a drain line and main sewer line. The video confirmation of the issue is definitely appreciated.
Jayvonte did a great job and was professional and friendly. It made the situation less stressful.
Overpriced for just putting a snake down the drain. They scratched my wood floor. They kindly said they’d do something about it but I am waiting to see what.
Very thorough
Brian did a great job in keeping me informed on what was happening with my situation.
Was able to get someone within an hour of calling and got great informative service from Brian. Very happy with the visit.
Brian was awesome, very knowledgeable and friendly! 5 stars!

I had to call Roto Rooter after discovering the floor drain in the basement had water backed up around it this morning. I called them at like 7:45 and they had someone there by 9. Jeff was the tech they sent out and he was very nice and helpful, he also made sure to check everything to ensure the issue was…
I appreciated the camera views of our clogged line to figure out the problem. With the service guys, we learned a lot about where the main line was (not in a normal place) and what was needed to fix the clog. Brad did a great job explaining the clog in the bathroom tub and teaching me how I can clean it myself. He…
I put in an appointment request online for a 1 hour window starting in 40 minutes, he was there in about an hour and got the work done quickly. A little pricey but great service/quality.
Jamison promptly arrived at the time the dispatcher told me. He diagnosed the issues, consulted with us as needed, and cleaned up the area before leaving. Would use this company again!
Jamison did an excellent job clearing my bathtub drain!! Yay, no more clog! He was earlier than anticipated, friendly, competent, and knowledgeable!! Would recommend Roto-Rooter to anyone in need of an experienced Plumber. Thank you!
Great work very precessional Hot and muggy basement did not affect him. Pleased with the quickness and job well done on a later evening.
I’ve been having trouble with a slow shower drain for a while but it finally stopped draining completely. I was able to schedule a same day appointment and was given a 2-hour window rather than a 4-hour window like other companies. Jamison was on time and professional. He cleared the shower drain in less than an…

Great company! Brad and Dave were very professional, pleasant, and throughly explained what was going on. They let us watch the complimentary camera which helped us understand the condition of our pipes. The company has good opportunities to finance any work done too!
Good service. Cleared the blickage. The included camera service is a real plus in both diagnostics and affirmation of a good job.
I had a clogged floor drain. Very fast service and excellent communication. From the moment I called them the rep on the phone was super friendly (Henry). They were out to my location in an hour. The technician (Brad) was also very friendly. He ran a snake through the drain and was able get it unclogged. Only reason…
The technicians were friendly, hard working and professional. They got the job done in a timely manner plus they arrived on time and cleaned up before the left. I’m very pleased with their work!
We had a sewer backup. Bradley, the technician, did a great job on a late Saturday night.

Guys were great! Knowledgeable and professional. We are repeat customers.
Had sewer line back up into my basement while hosting tonight. Called at 9pm and had Brad show up within the hour to clear out the line. He was very knowledgeable and professional. Will use Roto-Rooter again simply because of the excellent service.
Came home from work to water backed up in the kitchen sink of two units in my building. They had someone out within an hour and it was taken care of. We also had a slow drain in our basement that they also snaked for half price, and they're also going to send somebody out to run a camera down the pipe so we know…
Brad did a good and thorough job. I was pleased with the results. Everything was done in a timely and efficient manner.
Super hamburgertastic experience
Great job by Dave.
Had drainage issues late in the night, was able to schedule an early service. They came out the next morning right away and got it draining quickly. Fairly priced and honest work, can’t ask much more than that.
Excellent service by Roto-Rooter. I called to have a problem checked out and had a tech out in less than an hour. The tech fully explained what he was doing and provided tips to help prevent the same problem in the future. After he left, the second tech came with a camera and scoped out the main line. Everything was great.
Thwere fast, helpfull and ready to get the problem fixed
After discovering a sewage backup in my basement floor drain on Saturday evening and deliberating over the situation, I contacted Roto-Rooter at 9:00 PM. About an hour later, a technician arrived, performed a cleaning procedure, and successfully resolved the sewage backup. The following morning—Sunday—a camera…
Very quick and efficient! The tech was here at the allotted time, explained everything thoroughly, and was very friendly with my dog who likes to stick his nose in everyone's business. Would recommend!
