Drain Rooter was very quick to respond to my inquiry. When the service technician, Tu, showed up, he was very professional and honest. He resolved my issue, which was just a matter of a loose washer, quickly and free of charge. I highly recommend them and will do business with them again. I've used a few other pluming services in the area and Drain Rooter was by far the best! I'm glad we have found an honest, responsive, and reasonable plumber. read more

Todd is very reliable, prompt and professional. Would highly recommend. Competitive pricing... very nice guy. I'm one very satisfied customer. read more

Fast, professional, clean. A team of 2 showed up within 45 minutes. They needed to root my outside drain out to the street. Less than 90 minutes from call to complete. Highly recommend. read more

I requested a quote through yelp, Todd responded quickly. I had noticed that there was a leak underneath my house in the crawl space. I figured it was a sewage pipe and that I probably needed to replace the line. I requested a couple quotes on yelp. Todd came over and took a look underneath the house and told me that the entire sewage line needs to get replaced since it's a really old system. I figure this would be the case. Instead of Todd asking if I wanted to get the job done he simply stated that I needed to save up because it would be expensive. I know that Todd! That's why I was calling plumbers, to get the problem fixed. You can't assume someone doesn't have the money and tell them to save up. I know you probably meant no harm by it and you were actually trying to help, but that was a bit offensive. I am getting my sewage lines replaced, but it will be with another company. read more

Wow, Todd was a godsend! It was the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving and around 8pm our toilet clogged, and plunging it made the dirty water come out through the bathtubs in our house, only aggravating things. We called around for an emergency plumber but most places were overbooked til morning or wanted to charge a fee before even knowing what the issue was or knowing whether they'd be able to solve it. When I called Todd, his energy was completely different - he was interested in figuring out how he could access the sewage to let us know if he could even help us at all. He seemed very knowledgeable and creative with his problem solving. Since we didn't have two-way sewage access, he came up with a solution of using a hyrdrojett from the roof. He was on the scene within 20 minutes, tackled the problem and fixed what could've been a much larger problem come Thanksgiving day. We were in great hands with Todd and he was very helpful and honest. 100% would recommend. read more

Working with Todd was smooth, easy and very reasonable. He took time to explain the problem and what could be done to remedy. He completed the hydro-jet service on my drains and got everything cleared and running smoothly within an hour. He also provided advice in how to prevent the problem in the future. Great service! read more

Todd is amazing. He was very flexible with his schedule and in fact came early. Not a norm these days. He examine my current toilet and informed me where exactly are the leaks and recommended me to replace the toilet because of its age and also to prevent future issues. He went with me to grab a new toilet at Lowe's and we brought it back to the house and he did the installation. Upon completion he thoroughly tested his work and discovered a defect in the toilet. He then go about uninstalling everything and went with me back to Lowe's to do an exchange. He bared with me at Lowe's giving me the run around and me complaining to them about the situation. After the grunt, we had the defective part replaced, went back to the house to do the reinstall. All in all everything worked out. Todd was very personable and was awesome. I will definitely reach out to Todd for future plumbing needs. read more

I noticed a leak in my garage ceiling and realized it's from the sink in the second floor bathroom. I called a few plumbers and most of them said they will charge me to come and look at issue for giving me a quote. Then luckily I called Todd, he said he would swing by to check what the issue is and give me a quote for free. He was very thorough and clear in what the problem was. Very reasonable with pricing and explains in great detail of what went wrong. I was happy to get him to do the job. He did a excellent job. Gave me some tips around water heater too. I'm glad I found Todd. I now know who to call when I need a plumber. read more

Paul and Todd were awesome! Arrived within an hour after calling to fix a main sewage line clog and it was fixed within 20 minutes. Super friendly, knowledgeable, and affordable :) Highly recommend! read more

Drain Rooter plumbing provides exceptional, prompt services at very reasonable prices. I've called them for 3 separate issues. They responded much quicker than I expected and completed the work early and at a very reasonable price. They are a very hard working family owned business and they take tremendous pride in their work. San Jose is full of older homes with multiple prior owners with all sorts of piecemeal fixes and additions. When something goes wrong, you can watch a YouTube video and go to hardware store...you might fix it or you may likely make it worse. Our toilet was slow to drain and a plunger and simple snake didn't help.....I knew I was in trouble. I reached out to Rooter, they were at our house in 45 mins; At 8 pm at night, they tried to professionally snake the toilet, then crawled into our crawl space to identify our sewer lines, climbed on the roof to video inspect our main valve, identified the likely source of the blockage. The next morning, they dug a large trench in our backyard to expose the sewer line, installed a clean out valve, removed the tree roots blocking the line, and cleaned up the trench. My plumbing works great and my backyard actually looks better than before. They did all this in less than 24 hours. Amazing. Next time, I have a plumbing issue big or small, I'm calling them. Tu, Hong, and Todd are the best. read more

The only service responded within 10 minutes in my area. Got the quote in late night and made an appointment with Todd in the following morning. He showed up right on time to get things done quickly. He also gave me discount as the job was easier than he estimated. read more

Todd was great. He came within 30 min, was very professional and fixed our clog quickly. I highly recommend his service!

Todd did a great job communicating when he was coming and was on time. He was very quick to respond, did great work, and had excellent customer service. I would call him again. read more

Todd's assistant came out so quickly and fixed my issue in less than 2 hours. It was amazing. I trust him so much and his staff does a fantastic job. I will call him every single time and I know I will get a fair and reasonable quote. I wish every company was as good as this one. I cannot say enough good things about this service. read more

Todd came out and fixed the drain pipes that service my washing machine and kitchen sink. He showed up promptly, wearing PPE (because covid) and took off his shoes before entering my house. He quickly assessed the problem, snaking almost 75 feet of my old pipes and fixed my problem in under an hour. I love using small business owners like Todd, as you can tell they take pride in their business. On top of that Todd warranties his repair for 30 days and will come fix free of charge if the issues pop up again. He also will not charge for a repair if he cannot fix it. Super nice guy and very professional. Thanks! read more

I had a leak in the main water line where it enters the house. While other plumbers offered to change the whole water pipe saying the pipe was gone. Todd showed me that it was just the solder job done badly in the copper pipe and said he would just change that leaky section. It has been a month since the fix and there are no new leaks on in main water line. read more

Great experience, responded in 10 min as advertised. Kept in contact and came early. Very efficient and looked at more than what I asked for. Would highly recommend read more

I'm a property manager and require honest, reliable, prompt, experienced technicians -- "one call" and it's done. Todd gets the job done quickly and reasonably. He keeps my Clients happy and that keeps Me happy. read more

Todd was super and I will definitely call him again when we need plumbing work done! I had a toilet that wasn't flushing right, despite my plunging and plunging. It turned out that I had somehow dropped a plastic toilet freshener hook (the ones that hook on the side of the toilet bowl to make it smell like fruit or whatever), and there it was stuck in the hole. I pulled it out and he checked a few times to make sure that was it. It was--note to self not to use those toilet fresheners--and he didn't even charge me. Amazing. What a load off my shoulders! Thanks Todd! :) read more

Drain Rooter Service is very impressive. We have used their services to replace piping, check our main lines and most recently to replace our water heater. For the pipes, unlike other services we used previously before finding Drain Rooter service, they do an under house inspection to determine the root cause of the issue before beginning work. They always provide pictures, multiple options and timely service. Last night they came to help diagnose water found in the laundry room. Today they came to replace the leaking water heater. Since it was under warranty, they drained it, loaded it into their truck and met me at the place of purchase while I got the exchange. When they took out the unit, they discovered water on the wall and diagnosed the problem. Fixing the leak in the wall was a great find to prevent future potential issues. These are my 100% go to plumbers and highly recommend them. They are thorough, fair and professional. Thank you Drain Rooter Service. So happy we found you. read more

Very quick response time and friendly upfront service. Had my slow-moving drain working again in under a half hour. Thanks!

Very happy with the drain service provided today. Highly recommend for reliable, efficient, and courteous service!

I called Todd and he was in the middle of a job and said he would come right after. He showed up less than an hour later and helped me find the problem with my toilet. He was very kind and knowledgable. I will definitely be keeping his number handy for any future plumbing needs! read more

I called Todd last night round 8:20pm, just wondering if he could give me a quote. Beyond my expectations, he said he could come over immediately after he heard about I had a garage sink clog problem. He came within 30 minutes, and fixed the problem in 30 minutes using a 75 ft snake. After his work, not only he cleaned the water on the floor, but also educated me how to prevent to have similar issues next time. I was so impressed how honest he is, and his price is also reasonable. Highly recommend his service! read more

Todd is amazing. He now has been to our house twice all within in an hour and very reasonable. He's extremely professional and with all precautions with Covid-19. Drain Rooter is the go to person for all of your plumbing services. Thank you so much! Carolyn read more

Our pipes were clogged and sewage backed up into our bathtub and shower. Called and they were able to come right away. The plumber worked diligently to unclog our system. I was so grateful for the speedy response and resolution. I will definitely use him again! read more

I had Drain Rooter Service installed two toilets for my new home. Their response was quick. They first came onsite and provided a quote. I wasn't available that day so they scheduled another day for the installation. There were some unexpected issues with the old toilets but they had the right tools to get the job done. From my experience they are professional and easy to work with. I'll definitely call them again if I ever need plumbing service in the future. read more

Todd was very prompt in responding to messages on Yelp. His estimate was very competitive. On the day of the job, he arrived promptly (actually sooner) and finished the job professionally.

Our second floor kitchen drain clogged up late on New Year's Eve. I called Todd the next morning (a holiday), and he was here 30 minutes later and got it taken care of. He also replaced our P-trap (which has leaked numerous times before) while he was at it. Very friendly, competent, and efficient. Highly recommended! read more

Drain Rooter - Plumbing Near Me

My kitchen sinks were all backed up last night. After reading some of the positive reviews of the company at midnight, I decided to call Todd first thing in the morning. Todd said he would arrive at the house between 1 and 2, but he and his partner arrived about 20 minutes early, before 1. Todd and his partner went to work right away, they flushed the drain pipe by snaked through the cleanout, and did the hydro jetting, which I thought made lot of sense to do. They completed all the work in about 30 minutes. Todd is very professional, extremely service oriented, no B.S., and his rate is reasonable. I would give him 10 or more stars if Yelp would allow it. Thanks to Todd and his partner. read more

Problem: Our kitchen sink drain backed up after having carrot and potatoe peelings run through the garbage disposal. The sink would not drain. Result: A call this morning was answered immediately with an early morning appointment. The solution was to use high-pressure to clean the drain line. It removed a large blockage of grease, food bits, etc. The work was done quickly and professionally with clear guidance on the work and cost. We are very happy with the work done which quickly resolved our issue. read more

My toilet had a leak. I called them and they came within 30 minutes. They accurately diagnosed the problem and fixed it within 30 minutes. So it only took an hour to get my problem resolved. I was very satisfied with their service. I will definitely call them again for any future plumbing issues. read more

GLOWING REVIEW ALERT! Our business has been using the same three different plumbers for years, but every time we contact them, it's a battle. Incorrect diagnoses, jobs done incorrectly, final cost VERY different from original quote. I was nervous about branching out, but ended up very impressed! Todd replied super fast to my yelp message, and sent Paul out right away to give us a consultation. Paul knew what the issue was within two minutes, explained it simply, and gave us two options (along with what he thought was the option that would give us the most peace of mind). The next morning, Paul and Todd worked together and replaced our toilet with a new one in record time! They are both super friendly and nice to have around lol! AND the reasonable estimate ended up being the final cost! AND Todd tried to help clean up more than necessary (I insisted that he didn't need to, there was almost no mess at all!) You can tell these gentlemen enjoy what they do and take pride in their work. Highly recommend, and will continue to contact them FIRST going forward! read more

Todd was amazing! He responded to my request for a quote in record time. We talked by phone and he was pretty sure what the problem was. He arrived when he said he would and was very professional. Unfortunately we couldn't replicate the flooding problem we had called him for. After Todd worked on it for at least 15 minutes he was pretty sure our own attempts had fixed it. He ended up not charging us anything for his time nor travel. And this was the day after Christmas too! We couldn't have been more appreciative. If we ever have plumbing problems again we will for sure call Todd! A great professional and decent person too, you don't always find people like that in business these days. read more
