    The invoice that isn't itemized which charges me $1,479.00 for basic services.
    Karie F.

    1. False pricing: On the phone, they quoted me about $1,000, which then turned into $1,479.00 at time of payment. I was not presented with an invoice for the service performed before payment, I was simply asked to pay now. 2. Bad service: When I called, I explained that we started to install a new sink but needed help finishing it up, which included attaching the water lines to the sink, adding a pipe, and making sure it was installed correctly. The plumber took ALL DAY to do this, and when he initially started the job, he had to call and ask for advice on how to do this. I also had to show him how to install the water lines and the weight for the retractable faucet. I also asked him not to use any of the pipes I had purchased, the $1,000 price I was quoted was enough and I wanted to return my equipment - and even though he left to go buy the pipes and water lines, he neglected to get the correct pipe, and then ended up using mine...after I asked him not to...and then they didn't put a deduction on the bill for using my equipment!! 3. Issues after service: The company tried to state that I never asked them for help with the sink, which can't be correct because that's why I called. They stated they were ONLY there to install the pipes and water lines. The faucet was left loose and there was a huge gap both at the faucet base and around the sink drain - why would they leave such a gap for food to get into when I bought the food drain catch? (See photos) I also asked him to put clear silicon around the perimeter of the sink, but also never did that and stated he would come back tomorrow? ....Silicon takes less than 5 minutes and it needed to be done that day. 4. Unprofessional: I asked the plumber to please park on the side of the driveway, so that he doesn't block other tenants, which he did the first time but then didn't feel like it later. We have a HUGE driveway and there was plenty of space for him to park. However, after his lunch break he then proceeded to park in the CENTER of the driveway and block all the other tenants from coming and going. I also NEVER received an itemized invoice. I have included a screenshot of the invoice, where you can see they charged $1,479.00 for two things: Elite Rooter will reconnect plumbing underneath kitchen sink and install new supply lines; Elite Rooter will install new ABS adapter and install new Ptrap for sink. We will also install new supply lines to fit faucet.

    Severe back up of bath tub
    Aswini H.

    It was the day of my wedding reception and the bath tub had a severe back up. I called Elite Rooter and they sent Ruben. He did a very thorough job and removed the clog. I was so stressed, but he walked through step by step and was very detailed. The service cost was quite reasonable and great value for money. I strongly recommend Ruben and Elite Rooter.

    Wife was sitting on the sofa and noticed a water spot on the ceiling, 12 feet above the ground. Got on a ladder, leaned over, touching the spot, leaving my fingerprint impression in the ceiling. Bad news: spot was wet. Turned off the water to the toilet on the second floor above the ceiling water spot, and put out bids on Yelp, stating that we had a water leak likely requiring the removal of the toilet, and fixing of the pipes. One person estimated $320, but others say no estimate until they come out, with various charges of $88-$240 onwards just to come out. This is not your standard water heater leak or backed up sewer pipe clog. Pablo and Giovanni come on out, both wearing masks. First time met a Hispanic named Giovanni. They put a small hole in the ceiling 12 feet above the floor, sticking a camera inside. Flush the toilet, and sure enough water showering the inside of the ceiling. Pablo explains that the leak is from the toilet flange and connection, requiring removal of the toilet, replacement of the flange and new pipe connection. Giovanni works out an estimate, based on the difficulty of the task. Work starts once terms agreed to. Drop cloths over the drilling area underneath. He chips and power saws away at the grout attaching the toilet to the uneven tile floor. Don't want to damage the toilet, nor the tiles. Opens up the ceiling using a power saw to cut a 17 inch square hole in the ceiling, while standing on an 18 foot extension ladder. The ceiling panel and wooden beams have a light surface of black mold on them. Clean and dry the insides of the ceiling area under the toilet. Leaves it there to dry overnight. Turns out won't have to replace any of the lengthy plastic PCV pipes, only the specialized connection, without having to saw through the wooden beams in the floor, as compiled in the original estimate. Comes back a second day with Jorges, who work together to remove and replace the rotting wooden toilet flange, rubber inner seal, and pipe connection. Heavy duty rubber and steel new toilet flange. They flush the toilet a half dozen times, and watch the new connections. No leaks. Complete clean up hauling away all construction debris. Will get back to me with a contact for a friend who does drywall and ceiling plaster work to fix that 17 inch square hole in the middle of my living room ceiling, 12 feet off the floor. Pay with credit card, thinking how a $320 estimate job from one company ended up being a $3500 hole in the ceiling! At least it wasn't as expensive as the Elite Rooter 3 day job replacing 70 feet of tree root congested sewer line and the entire drainage system under my rental house in March, which ran $18,069!

    They charge you 69$ even if they can't clear your clean out...ridiculous

    I rarely write reviews but I needed to comment on Elite Rooter's dishonest advertisement. I was looking at Craiglist for someone to clear my clean out since water was backing up in my lowest toilet and according to Elite Rooter's advertisement on Craiglist and they clear clean outs for 69$. If they can't do it, they won't charge you or so I thought... I called and had someone come out July 5th, 2023. It was a young technician without much experience and he told me it would be 69$ and had me sign off before he started trying to clear out the clean out. He takes out a snake that looked super old and it's blades were rusted and barely sharp. I seriously doubted this thing was going to clear the drain especially since I knew I hadn't snaked my clean out in a long time. So of course, he fails to clear out the clean out and he tried wiggling the snake for maybe 10 minutes, but come on man that thing isn't going to work with it's dull blades. Then he charges me 69$ and tells me that it will take 250$ to send a camera to see what's happening and that won't even fix the issue. Are you serious? I called another plumbing company instead and they were able to clear out the clean out since they use heavy duty stainless steel snakes with large blades on the ends of them for 125$. You could tell their equipment was commercial grade. They also came with 2 strong men that really worked the snaked pushing it in and out until they finally cleared it out and pulled the snake out together. They also said they don't charge unless they clear it out! Bottom line, save yourself some money and don't go with Elite Rooters, or I'd like to call them Elite Loosers since they can't fix your problem and they use outdated, old, rusted, and weak equipment!!!

A few days ago I noticed that on one of our faucets, if I closed the hot water side too fast there was a little bit of a rattle under the house. I thought I could handle it myself after asking Perplexity what it could be and installed a water arrestor. That didn't help so I thought, maybe it could be the strapping. I reached out to Handy Plumbing Man on a Saturday and they were quick to respond that they could have someone there on Monday. Monday morning came and their technician, Miguel, went down and found that one of the pipes they had worked on wasn't totally secured. No problem, mistakes happen. He said he'd call the office to get technicians over to check the strapping on the work below. I had to go into work but did get a message from them later on that day to see if they could get someone over the same day (Monday) to fix it. This is more on me that I had already gone into work, but they said they could do tomorrow morning at 8am. The guys, Carlos and Baltazar, came bright and early, went under the house and secured the pipe and then some. Awesome company!

Plumber never showed up to perform the job. First the scheduling. Lady on the phone had no idea what things cost. Then, she schedules it with two hour window, this is ok I guess. I called at 4:00 pm, she schedules it between 5-7pm. That fine. Then, around 6:00 pm Evan shows up, but guess what, he is just the guy that's going to write up and make you sign the contract and said that the other guy is right behind me to do the work, maybe 7 to 7:30. I'm already frustrated, but ok, as long as the pipe is cleaned, I have a family that needs to use the bathrooms and what not. Evan of course leaves without leaving me with any contact info. Then shortly after, I get a text message that my appointment is now from 6-8 pm. Ok, I tried calling the office, some ai answering machine answers but no human ever called me back. It's 8:15 and no call and no plumber. Pretty shady business practices imho. Edited original one start review. Yesterday evening around 11:00 PM the plumber tech showed up and ran the snake down the pipe to open the flow. This was actually surprising cause I lost hope and was planning on going to HD to pick up a snake myself at 6:00 AM. Alexis was very friendly and professional. Quickly performed the work and promised to call in the morning to schedule a camera inspection to make sure the pipe was properly cleaned. Evan arrived this morning, performed camera inspection, all is good. Thank you guys, would have been nice that both of those things were done between 5-7 yesterday as was originally promised, but still the job is done. I'm bumping the rating from 1 to 4 stars.

    Jose and his crew were absolutely amazing! I was looking for someone to replace our makeshift…read moreend-of-line cleanout with a proper one, and Jose came out on a Saturday to give me an estimate - super fair pricing and great work done quickly on the next Friday. We ended up telling him about our crumbling cast iron main sewer line under our slab foundation, and a belly in the garage that's been causing us problems every year, and Jose offered us the CIPP + robot cutter trenchless solution so that we don't have to dig up every connection in our house, and it was at a fair price. Since they did a great job with the cleanout replacement, we decided to do the whole sewer line CIPP and dig up the belly too. Jose and crew arrived promptly at the scheduled time to start the work. They dug up a trench in the garage and replaced the section of the pipe with the belly on day 1. After the belly was replaced with new pipe, there was still not enough slope for the new section to properly drain, because the two end of the existing pipes were just at the wrong height and simply replacing the belly was not enough. Jose communicated this to us and proposed another solution where they would pipe burst under the current pipe for the section that's too high to my front yard clean out so that the whole section would have proper slope, at no extra charge. Meanwhile the crew in the back were working on the CIPP in parallel. They measured out where the openings were and carefully marked the linings with the measurements. Inserted the linings, cured it, cut it, then used robot cutters to reopen the connections. After everything was done, they patched everything back, and cleaned up the whole place. When they patched the concrete in the garage back, they made sure put in rebar to support that small cut out section of the concrete. We saw the final result together in the camera inspection and the pipe looks great - no more bellies and one nice sewer line with proper slope and smooth lining. I'm so glad I found this company and Jose who I know I can trust to do high quality work and do the right thing when there are unexpected hiccups that arise. Throughout the process, Jose took time to explain to us what will be done and how it will be done so we were never left in the dark. I really appreciated the clear communication. It was a pleasure working with Jose and crew!
