This is the second time that Roto-Rooter has come to our rescue. Our water heater decided to break and leak water in the utility closet and kitchen floor. I can't say enough about their professionalism and quick response. They assist us with the replacement of the water heater and homeowners insurance. I wish I could give them more then five stars.
Called between 5:30 and 6:00am. Had a person answer the phone and said someone would be there between 8:00 and 9:00am. They were here by 8:00am. Great service from water heater replacement to cleanup. Will definitely call again if I need them.
Waking up to water all over my brand new floor was not how I wanted to spend my birthday. It was pretty terrible and I expected the whole process of getting my faulty water heater replaced and the damage cleaned up to be an absolute nightmare. We called roto rooter in a panic at 3:30 in the morning when we first…
James is a very congenial master plumber who obviously knows and enjoys what he is doing when he changed my water heater in my high rise Philly condo on the 10 yr due date with his nice helper and answered all my questions while doing a great job! It is better and safer than the one installed by our retired plumber…
James and Manny were not only responsive, but very professional and went over and beyond taking care of a basement leak; efficiently taking care of the damage and assessing (accurately) potential future problems to be addressed. He even went back to check that everything was running smoothly. God Bless.
The technicians at Roto-Rooter made an overwhelming plumbing emergency manageable. They were very efficient, clean and careful with their work. They went out of their way to help us make the best financial decisions and were transparent with costs. They made sure we were well informed about the process and what to…
Service was great!!! Would recommend.
Replaced a water heater and was able to do it quickly and with little effort, even in a tight South Philly basement
The entire experience with Roto Rooter was great. They responded to me right away - sent someone out to view my water heater the same day, and the replacement was done the next day. They were very very quick. They were done within an hour. Excellent service!
Water heater busted,Roto Rooter came out and cleaned up the major water damage and took up the water damaged carpet and cleaned and dried out the surrounding damages as well. Came out the next day and installed a new bigger water heater. Will be paid for through my mortgage insurance. Did a great job of helping me out given my financial situation
Dan was awesome. Prompt, professional, knowledgeable and easy to work with. Great care was taken to protect home, cleaned up well and cared about my situation. Most definitely would call on them again!
