Recently had Josh and his crew out to do a job on my house, replacing old cast iron pipes under slab and pipe bursting a section of clay pipe in my yard that had root intrusion. These guys are the real deal, they arrived on time with a big crew of guys and got to work right away and finished a big job in 1 day (quicker than expected) I really appreciated that they got my clarification and approval on questions/decisions as the work went on and they were more than happy to address any issues I brought up. Anyone who has had plumbing done before knows finding a reliable crew that does good work is especially difficult at a reasonable price. I am really impressed and will definitely be using them again for future projects! read more

Amazing job on two things. Sewer drain great job done So quickly and the other thing was installing a water heater in less than 24 hours a day before Thanksgiving. Can't give these guys enough credit. I just hope they don't get too overwhelmed with the amount of business they're going to get in the future Great value read more

We hired Mr. Drains to fix a steady leak on the hose bibb in our backyard that was leaking under the house, and also to replace the old broken water shutoff valve into our home. Josh and his team were communicative and very professional, on time, and friendly, and did a good job explaining what they were doing. The hose bibb and water shutoff valves were replaced and work perfectly. The reason for the 3-star review, however, had to do with work that was not initially planned. During the water shutoff valve replacement, the team noticed that the main line into our front yard sprinklers had a slight leak, and Josh offered to repair it. After cutting out the pipe to the sprinkler system and several trips to Lowe's over multiple hours, he told me that he couldn't figure out how fix it, and to call a gardener instead. He left with the sprinklers completely disconnected. While I did appreciate the offer to fix it, I was pretty disappointed when he gave up and left the sprinklers in a more broken state than when he arrived. read more

It is absolutely obvious why Mr. Drains has a 5-star rating once you meet Josh. We had him come out on a Sunday (he didn't charge extra) and he spent a good hour scoping our sewer line which was old and blocked. He showed me places where the piping had deteriorated and explained all my options. He graciously was very very kind on lowering the price of fixing everything given how big of a job it was and how unexpected the expense. He allowed me the space to get other prices and was in constant contact with me. It is very hard to find people like Josh in the service field - honest, kind, knowledgeable, dependable, and willing to work with you. I would HIGHLY recommend Josh for plumbing work both easy and complicated. He is an incredible human being. read more

I had a main line clog 6 months ago and another clog last week from toilet paper getting caught in my old, highly corroded 1962 cast iron pipes. It was time to repipe my drain lines before a ticking dreaded disaster on my "slab" foundation home. Upon multiple bids, I went with my gut feeling upon reading their great yelp reviews and talking with Josh to start work with Mr Drains. I discussed my concern with Josh that I did not want the best bid now to be surprised with excessive additional work charges later and he assured me he did not conduct business that way. A 2-way clean out was installed 2.5 ft deep from my driveway. From the clean out a more accurate camera inspection showed that more extensive work was required by opening up my half bath concrete over LVP flooring located behind the clean out. I was nervous at first, but Josh, and his crew completed the job smoothly. Installed were all new ABS drains in this half bath from where they shot the new Perma Liner from this access point upstream to my bathroom connections. Josh even showed me camera footage after the descale prior to the liner installation. They cut a small wall from the bathroom sink where they also installed new ABS to reinstate the liner to open up all connections. My kitchen stucco was removed to upgrade my kitchen clean out to a 2 inch where they descaled and applied epoxy coating down to where my kitchen drain ties with my laundry and meets my main line. Tony and Ishmael fixed my floors (luckily I had 2 boxes of my LVP floors), stucco, and drywall so I did not have to hire additional labor for restoration. Daily Josh and his crew came early and started work exactly on time. His huge crew completed the job in 3 days! Josh is a man of his words. Although the work got bigger than initially expected he did not charge me extra at all. I would definitely recommend Josh and his crew to family and friends for their hard work, reliability, communication, and excellent work! I now have a peace of mind that my new drains will last me a very, very long time. read more

While I did not end up selecting Mr. Drains to do the work for my sewer sleeve, I was very impressed with them. They had an idea that we ended up using, and I would have had no problem selecting them to do the work (there was another plumber who was slightly lower in their estimate and who's personality fit mine even better). read more

Awesome service! They came right away and worked very efficiently and professionally. He also offered a discount.

Called Josh at Mr. Drains, my water heater took a major dump on me. He came right out, removed the old water heater, installed my new water heater up to code. He was Amazing, great service as always, he was fast, professional, educational, great pricing, and smelled great. I use Mr. Drains for all my plumbing needs no job to big or small.

Great prices, easy to communicate, came very timely and cleared the clog I had in my bathroom. Would recommended to others and call again.

Josue and his team came out the day after I called to address two partially clogged sinks. They worked efficiently, communicated clearly, and offered valuable insight into my overall plumbing setup. Highly recommend their services and will be using them in the future for a project I already have in mind. read more

These guys were recommended to me by a cousin who used their service last year. I actually had a few different things that needed to be addressed (bathroom leak, water heater, and a toilet). I received prompt responses and Josue really took the time to answer all my annoying questions! He even let me send him videos of some of my problems because I had no idea what to do! I gathered quotes from 4 different companies and the others wanted to charge me 2x-3x more than what Mr. Drains quoted. 2 of those companies weren't even willing to look at pictures/videos of my problem because they said they need to do an "in-person" assessment. I made the appointment with Mr. Drains and he was even 30 mins early! Extremely satisfied and this will now be our go to plumber when we need service. read more

We had a major sewer replacement that we were dreading and each person that came to provide an estimate gave us nighmare scenarios of what a mess it was going to be and the astronomical costs that were required. It was a complicated job as the house was built on a slab in 1950 and no crawl space exists. Then comes Josh to the rescue! He takes my call on a Sunday afternoon - shows up on Monday at 8:00 a.m. sharp provides an upfront cost using modern sewer pipeburst repacement technology of 1950 clay pipes and returns on Tuesday and completes the job in 2.5 days!!! The house is cleaner than how he found it all of the holes are repaired, bathroom tiles replaced to perfection, clean outs done and kitchen pipes replaced. These guys are soooo friggen good, we do not have one complaint and we are super picky! JOSH JOSH JOSH You are a gem - so smart, truly talented, so honest and just a very nice person! Mr. Drains Rooter & Plumbing Service company is DA BOMB! His staff are top quality - so hard working and so careful and clean. My neighbors are asking for his card after seeing the work they did. He delivers on exactly what he says. He shows up early every day and supervises the entire job/working alongside the crew along with a project management team. There is a reason for the 5 STAR****** reviews. Look, we all hate to spend money on plumbing but it is like death and taxes, the day will come.... if you need a trustworthy and sharp plumbing company and you was to feel at ease with professionals that know what they are doing and at a fair price - look no further. Hands down the best plumbing company I have ever worked with. read more

We called Mr Drains to investigate a foul odor in our house. Josh responded very quickly and performed a thorough inspection. He carefully explained what he was looking for and showed us all areas of concern in real time. Based on this inspection, we decided to replace our old clay sewer line, and the old cast iron pipes located in our crawlspace. The estimated cost, although high, seemed quite reasonable given the scope of the work. Josh and his team arrived the next day to perform the work. It was impressive seeing how well this team works together and the quality of their work. The entire job took 2 full days. After the work was complete, we noticed our sprinkler system which was turned off during the sewer repairs was no longer working. We called Josh, and he returned the next day and spent a few hours identifying and fixing the issue without any additional charges. My wife and I were very impressed with the quality, thoroughness, and friendliness of Josh and his entire team. Without hesitation we will be calling him if we have any plumbing problems in the future. read more

Josh and his team came to our office as soon as we called to take care of a backed up drain line. They quickly identified the problem and fixed it at a very reasonable cost. Long term, they gave us suggestions to prevent the problem from happening again. Very honest, reasonable, and professional. I highly recommend Josh and Mr. Drains. A++++ read more

On a Friday night, we came home to find sewage backing up into our drains--never a pleasant surprise. We tried a DIY clean-out using a snake from the hardware store, but it didn't do the trick. The city's public works team came out to check the main line and confirmed that the issue wasn't on their end. That's when we called Josh from Mr. Drains, and he was at our door within 20 minutes, equipped with a line camera and a motorized snake. After assessing the problem, Josh and his crew returned promptly the next morning at 8:00 AM with a hydrojetter that successfully cleared the clog. During the post-clear-out inspection, they discovered a crack in our sewer line running from the house to the main. Josh provided us with a great deal on the necessary repair and walked us through everything clearly. I can't recommend Josh and his team enough--they were professional, hardworking, efficient, and got the job done. If you're looking for dependable and honest sewer service, Mr. Drains is the way to go. read more

Thank you Josh for your quick response and excellent service. We reached out to Mr. Drains for a clogged sink, and you addressed the issue promptly and efficiently. We truly appreciate your help! read more

I was collecting estimates for a main sewer line replacement or sleeve. Mr. Drains came out on Labor Day to run their pipe camera and give me an estimate. They gave me a fair price and said they could get started that day and finish by the next day. They had the 6' hole dug and exposed the lateral to the street within a couple hours. They came back the next day and did 80' of pipe bursting, epoxy sleeved the connection to the city sewer main, and replaced the cast iron lines under the house. At the end of the 2nd day they were done and put everything back. They kept me updated during the process and answered all my questions throughout. read more

Did a great job with an extensive plumbing repair. Pipes were backed up, had to excavate outside home, replace broken/damaged segments, run hydrojet. Explained all options well. Crew was friendly and hard-working. With work like this, you want a plumber whose long-term reputation matters to them and this is certainly the case with Leo and crew. Would recommend. read more

Josh is the real deal! He is extremely reliable - responds very quickly and is prompt if not early to every appointment! He assessed our situation accurately and made sure we understood the situation and our options. He is very fair on pricing and has good integrity in his dealings with you throughout the process. We haven't had issues since and their work was done properly and efficiently. We plan on continuing to work with Mr. Drains from here on out. read more

I rarely give 5 stars but they were terrific at handling my complex plumbing needs. My main sewer drain had developed a leak where maybe 1-2 feet section had collapsed and needed to be replaced. I submitted a request on yelp and with in 20 minutes Josh, one of the owners contacted me and we set up an appointment. He was very polite and customer centered. I set up a number of other quotes from other plumbing companies. Mr Drains was by far the fairest of prices and best customer service. They completed the complex job in one day. Again, Josh's customer service was exceptional. I highly recommend this family owned business for your plumbing needs. read more

They are pretty thorough but pricy. They claimed that the pipe under the house is damaged and they will make a tunnel under the house and access the pipe and replace the pipe but I really doubt that it is a good idea because the house slab will really give in if they tunnel under the house. read more

These guys are amazing. Josh is super responsive and reasonable. He has a great crew who are all very respectful and great at what they do. They lined my sewer, including a 12 foot dig. Multiple other plumbers were trying to rip me off, but I trust Mr Drains. read more

Josh's services are 10/10. He gave a competitive price, quality work, reliable and great communication. 3 of my drains were clogged and he knew exactly what was needed to repair them. Thankfully it was a quick turnaround. Will definitely work with him again. read more

Josh and Mr. Drains and Rooter to the rescue again. Walked out into a pond in my garage. Vintage Clinton era water heater finally gave up. A quick text to Josh, appointment, price and specs agreed upon. Peace of mind. Consistent updates on ETA during the day....no drama. Come showtime, business got handled. I RARELY write reviews but got to give Josh and his company props. He provided good tips and advice on how to prevent future problems. Shop around like did, then go with value, fast and good. Mr. Drains and Josh. Take it to the bank. read more

I had an emergency kitchen drain leak that lead all the way to my laundry room on the first floor. I called Joshua at Mr. Drains Rooter and Plumbing. Joshua was super professional and listened to my problems and quickly came out the next morning on time to start looking at what the problem was. He immediately opened up the drywall and identified where the leak was coming from. Gave me a very reasonable estimate and I agreed to have him start the job. He was very knowledgeable and communicated with me throughout the entire process. Gave me his honest opinion and let me know that because my house was built in the 60s that the remaining pipe will most likely experience the same corrosion. I think his knowledge and honesty will save me a lot of headaches later on which I think it is so valuable. His work was super professional and thanks again Joshua - I would recommend him for anyone that's looking for any plumbing need. read more

Needed a plumber to unclog my toilet, sent out request via Yelp ai projects and this guy replied within a minute and had the cheapest rates. He was quick to reply and message me and came within less than an hour. He finished the job quickly, was very friendly and professional and even gave me advice on my issue rather than just coming to fix it and leave. He took all the necessary steps to try to resolve it by looking at the clean out and helping me understand the issue and gave me advice to have someone scope out the pipes in the future to avoid the issue happening again. This was all very helpful being someone that knows nothing. Also mind you I did try hard to plunge hundreds of times and use dish washing liquid and nothing worked for hours. This guy came with the right tool and fixed it within minutes. He wasn't messy either. It only costed $85 where someone else quoted me $150. So his rate was pretty good I'd say. Being a girl too, I felt comfortable around him. He seems knowledgeable and friendly and most importantly didn't completely rip me off and responded quickly and came quickly. I'm so happy to have had a great first experience and know who to call in the future or refer anyone to next time. read more

Between Josue and his brother Ishmael I have myself a one stop shop for all my plumbing and house needs. The team is super technical, work is high quality, appreciate the thoroughness, attention to detail and overall care in everything they do. I had a crazy plumbing backflow issue that flooded our first floor at midnight and Josue was lightning quick to respond and get his people out to the house and working by 8AM. Josue had a deep knowledge of land/ground behavior and different types of solutions from interim to more long term for plumbing. Everything is done per code, no shortcuts. No concern that there will be any residual or repeat problems once all said and done. My day job is a senior quality engineering manager so this review is coming from someone who's seen it all. Since Josue helped us resolved our plumbing issue, we've moved onto to working with his brother Ishmael for two patio sliding door installation jobs. Also, fantastic 5 star execution there. Choose Josue, Ishmael, and their team. They are high quality and so so painless. Zero regrets! read more

We had a sewer line blockage issue, so we looked up Mr Drains along with others from Yelp. Josh got back to us within 15 minutes from the getgo and showed up to the property within 1/2 hr or so. He promptly put his equipment to work. Sending the camera down the sewer line and quickly identifying the problem. All these were done free of charge. We discussed about the options and agreed on the price and schedule. He started working the next morning with crews of several. They cleaned the line with hydro jet, excavated the broken parts and replaced / repaired the line with liners. All in all the whole job took only two days. We are extremely happy with the results. If you are looking for someone to do a nice job at a reasonable price look no further. read more

I hired Joshue a few weeks ago for a clogged up kitchen sink drain. He responded back very quickly with a quote and an appointment time. When he arrived, him and his team was very polite and went right into figuring out what's causing the issue. The job took him approximately 1.5 hrs since he had to snake the pipe pretty far down. After the job was done, they did a thorough job cleaning up and charged me exactly what he quoted me. This review is composed after 2 weeks since the job has been completed as I wanted to make sure clogging wouldn't happen again. I would hire and recommend Joshue and his team in the future. His estimate was fairest of all the companies I've called. read more
