We had a total collapse of our entire home plumbing. It was traumatic to say the least and was a massive job. Morgan and Alfredo were here for many days along with others, working day and into the night to get things dug up, replaced and moving again. It was so nice to have Morgan and Alfredo here, they were professional and positive. Most of all, very knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend them for your next job. Thank you Morgan and Alfredo!! read more

TOTAL set up ! Called for a simple drain to be unclogged . A young man came out and starts to snake the pipe , messes around for about 10 minutes and says he thinks their are Roots clogging the pipe and that he already called out his supervisor . Sure enough the supervisor comes out with a camera that of course doesn't work because the pipe is clogged ...... tells me I have to spend 950.00 to power wash the pipe so the camera would be clear to see the problem . About this time I notice the young man never put a TIP on the snake !!!!! This is when I asked the young man if after all his Snaking , did he check to see if it was now unclogged ????? He shockingly said NO I haven't checked !!!!! That's when I knew this was ALL staged ! Services were declined . Most people would have been scammed . The next day another company came out and unclogged it in about 7 minutes . He said this is a KNOWN scam in this industry ! First thing he asked was ..... did they have a TIP on the snake ! NOPE read more

Kitchen sink was draining slow. Standard issue on an older home. Grease accumulation over time, regardless of how careful you may be, adds to the clogging of the pipes. Scheduled a 2 hr window and the scheduler called right at the end of the window to proactively say the guys in the truck where on the way. Very courteous. The guys showed up were respectful, courteous, proficient and took care of the problem at the special ad rate. I had some other non-urgent fixes they gave quotes on. I definitely respect their honesty. There appears to be some room on prices so don't feel pressured. They were very good at providing information and NOT hard selling. Very honorable. I am very comfortable endorsing this professional plumbing firm. read more

Rooter Solutions Plumbers San Diego - Plumbing Near Me - San Diego, California

In the first week of January we had a sewer drain blockage. The sewer pipe runs under the house in the cement slab from the northwest corner (washing machine) to the southeast corner where it exits from under the house. Approxamately 50 feet. The distance to the street is twenty feet from the house. At the street it is six feet underground. I called Rooter Solutions who ran a snake down the sewer cleanout access next to the washing machine. After two attemps using two different snakes they announced that they would have to access the blockage in pipe from the other end, outside the house. They would have to dig down six feet in my yard to access it. They initially quoted $7000. They later changed it to $5000. I asked the cost if I dug the hole and they quoted $3500. I said hold that thought. I'll get back to you. My gardener quoted $500 to dig down to the pipe. Just to be sure, I called another drain cleaner company to snake the drain. They put the snake in the same drain as Rooter Solutions and they cleared the drain in less than one minute. So the lession learned is to always try a second opinion or service if you are quoted an insanely huge amount of money to fix the problem. read more

Ryan was professional and friendly. He helped me clear my drain and did a great job. Highly recommend

I had a blocked toilet and called this company. Frank and Aisa came out and quickly snaked the drain pipe. It cleared the line, but they recommended that I might want to replace my faulty low-quality toilet. Thet were efficient, clean, and best of all, honest! W. Anderson, Carmel Valley read more

Great and thorough job by Morgan clearing out my shower drain. Fast response from the company.

In the process of getting the pipe replaced going into the septic tank. Initially called for a clogged drain and had an amazing technician, Dylan that cleared it out. This is an ongoing problem with a super old pipe going into the septic tank so it always gets clogged and had plumbers come out and say they'll remove a clogged drain for $69 and then end up charging $250 before leaving. This company was very honest and honored their online special to clear the clogged drain for $55 so my thoughts were that they were going to be fair. I got a quote to dig up the area and replace the old pipe going into the septic tank for $3,200 with an estimated time of about 2 days. I had a similar quote in the past. They dig out the area and find that there is concrete patched up around the septic tank that they'll have to chip away. Now the price is $1,000 more, and completion time is the same time as before. I don't get it. read more

Morgan came through and took care of us! cool dude plumbing skills even cooler. would highly recommend morgan. dude came and took care of business instantly. read more

We have used Rooter Solutions in past for snaking drains, THIS time was a nightmare. We have a break in our main, I was told I needed to sign a contract for $22,000+ for a kitchen pipe re-route, I did so and paid a deposit, I was told job would be completed in 3 days, I asked multiple times for my contract, never received it, I was then told we had to reroute remainder of house, and 1st contract would not have warranty until 2nd contract was signed, THEN I was told 1st job could not be completed until I signed for another $48,000. Was told my driveway & garage needed to be jackhammered up, pipes couldn't be re-routed outside house Equipment used was not professional, 18 foot crack in my driveway, chipped & cracked concrete on trench in garage. day 4 trench still wasn't dug. 4 guys on jobsite, 1 shovel, but lots of cigarette butts. Was told crew doesn't work Saturdays, website shows hours Monday-Saturday. Was harassed, lied to & completely taken advantage of. Rooter Solutions was completely out of their league on this job, stick to snaking & drain clearing. DO YOUR HOMEWORK, get multiple quotes. It's against CA law to do work for over $500 without a contract. read more

Could NOT recommend and here is why: You'll want to save yourself some stress and just call another company for your plumbing issues. Really pathetic communication skills. And a complete NO show or call for the second part of our job to finish. We are seniors, and they came to fix a sewer venting pipe that had broken apart in the attic, causing a bad smell in the bathroom. That went really well, or so we thought. (More on that later) We paid them, however, we still had a horrid smell in the bathroom the next day. When I told them, they said they were going to come back, so I ask to be put on the schedule with a 6 days advance request. Incidentally, they had to take out the entire bathroom sink to access and repair site and glue the sewer venting pipes. So we haven''t had a sink in our bathroom for about 2 weeks. We made a plan for them to come back and fix the hot/cold pipes in the bathroom so we could put the sink in, and recheck the smell and trim the pipe on the roof. They said to just let them know when to come back. CREEPY, I can see they are reading my messages but not confirming our appointment I am trying to make 6 days in advance. Then, the morning of, they randomly text and say they'll be here on here between 1-2pm. I tell them GREAT!! WTH? They pull a NO SHOW, NO CALL. No bathroom sink for us... for who knows how much longer. Lame, rude and unprofessional. I have been dealing with "Christian", who is the General Manager. UPDATE: CALLED ANOTHER PLUMBER WHO JUST LEFT. Turns out ROOTER SOLUTIONS plumber didn't connect one of the stacks by gluing or repairing it in the wall~~~ so sewer gas was/is still pouring into our bathroom. So it appears they did kind of a crappy job~ and just left us to deal with it. Save yourself some aggravation~ I wish I had. read more

"It drains or you don't pay" is their slogan, and they really mean it. I thought I'd try them to clear two area drains after receiving their Spring Savings drain cleaning offer in the mail. When I called, I was given a same-day appointment ... and Junior arrived about 2 hours earlier than scheduled. He tried snaking the lines but hit obstacles, namely the 20+ year old lines had been invaded by roots. Another tech, Blake, confirmed this with video of the lines. Since they couldn't clear the lines, there was no charge for the service call. read more

Our tub and shower drain needed to be unclogged. We called Rooter Solutions and they scheduled us for the next day. Ryan came out and spent a couple hours clearing the clog. He was super professional, knowledgeable and cordial. The problem is fixed. They honored the $54 coupon. Will definitely use them again. read more

They broke sprinklers while putting in drains or just took sprinklers out and they said they will put them back they just put them in the ground connected to nothing. Installed drains that are just in the ground going no where filling up with water that doesn't connect to anything. Damaged the whole yard!! Fraudulent company. Showed the boss how the pipes are just sitting in the soil not connected to anything and got a silent response just stared at us like it's our fault. No words. No apologies. No shock. Is this a real company? read more

We requested service for a clogged kitchen drain. Ryan came out this afternoon and literally spent hours working on our drain! He was very courteous, prompt and knowledgeable. Our drain was terribly clogged and difficult to clear. He told us what he was doing each step of the way. He was persistent and was finally able to clear it! We really appreciate all he did and the time he spent! A great guy! read more

Interesting update. 7/18/23. Just got off the phone with a supervisor from the California State Licensing Board. Rooter Solutions does NOT have a valid and current license as plumbers. They will be receiving a warning letter from CSLB. If they continue to operate unlicensed, they will be fined. I encourage everyone who even considers using this company to find someone else. If you must call them, check their plumbing license status first. They are the worst. read more

I rarely write reviews because I am incredibly busy and I forget or just don't make time for them. However, I have to write a review for rooter solutions. They were amazing from start to finish. My mom used their company a few months ago and felt like they were honest and fair. They fixed one thing that was broken so she called them back out to look at her garbage disposal, which was done correctly it is just small, and they didn't charge her anything. Fast forward 3 months when I needed help. I called then because my mom was so happy with them and Pablo came out, which happened to be my moms plumber, and he recognized her, and offered to place a camera free to see what the damage was or what needed replaced/fixed. It turned out to have cracks and breaks all throughout (this house was built in 1960s). We then discussed our options and I had a huge project all of a sudden. To put it mildly, I was stressed and disappointed but this company really was wonderful. I got financing through them immediately and they started the next day. They had to jack hammer through concrete in my garage and dig up my whole front yard which was turf, to lay all new piping and they had to drill through my bathroom to replace all the existing pipes as well. It was a mess. However, these guys worked so hard and efficiently and I basically had all that work done in a week. Minus a few things here and there that they will need to finish this week but everything is livable :). Honestly I would NEVER call anyone else. They truly did seem to care and were honest from start to finish. They showed me everything and gave me options and scenarios without pressuring me into anything. Mark and Pablo were who I spoke with mostly but their entire team is amazing!!!! Thank you for the least amount of stress in such a big project and decision. read more

Called RS for our clogged drains. The technician Guillermo was super friendly and very knowledgeable. He quickly got them unclogged and was very respectful in keeping our house floors he even wore booties on his shoes. read more

These people were awesome. Super easy to work with and got the job done quickly. They were honest and didn't charge us a ridiculous price like the first company that came over. This company charged us less than third of the first estimate we received which was almost $30,000. So if you're looking for a great plumbing company, I highly recommend Rooter Solutions, ask for Gil or Alex. read more

Rooter Solutions Plumbers San Diego - Plumbing Near Me - San Diego, California

We called Rooter Solutions out to fix our upstairs toilet that had overflowed - they diagnosed the problem after snaking the drain -- our 40 year old toilets simply needed replacement. Their initial diagnosis was very reasonably priced. We purchased 3 new toilets and they came back out to replace them, as well as an angle stop, and again, a very reasonable price for labor. Joseph was super sweet and we felt 100% comfortable with him in our home, along with others on his team who came out to help him finish up late on a Friday afternoon. I'm so happy to find a great team of plumbers, and will definitely reach out to Rooter Solutions again for any future plumbing issues. read more

I guess they forget about customer service after they get $16,000 from you, at least that's my experience. I have been waiting on documents from Rooter Solutions to send to my home insurance company for well over a month and have called multiple times to follow up with them to no avail. I can't make a claim because they have not provided the necessary documents. I was told they would get the documents to me back in September. I am not pleased. read more

Worst company out there. They charged me more than the agreed upon price and provided me a detailed invoice with work that was never done. I had half the work done by another handyman. When I tried to work it out over the phone, no one would call me back. Stay far away from this fraudulent business. read more

We paid $50k for a project that was started on 3/19/24. It's 5/13/24 and the job is still unfinished. We've dealt with everyone in the company except the CEO. They say they're coming and another week goes by. Total scam and we're paying for it. Close to elder abuse. Beware of these technicians. Crafty salesmen. read more

Update... I found an honest plumber who got the job done in 3 hours. Total job cost 80% less than Rooter Solutions. Unless you want to pay their outrageous rates, stay far away from these guys. read more

I was so happy to find an affordable plumber these guys saved me from a ridiculous price someone else wanted to charge me.

Lost my main sewer line to the septic tank. Called Rooter solutions, they said they could have some one out that day to look at the problem. Very friendly people answering the phones, very professional. Special Kudos to Alejandro and Andrey. They stayed out in the cold and dark to make sure we could use the house plumbing that evening. This is after I told them they could go home. All said my experience with Rooter solutions was vey positive. I will use them again and recommend their services. TY El Cajon read more

I originally had this company come out using a weekly coupon to snake & examine a slow drain with their camera. They were wonderful! Friendly, competent, & it was a great price. Then, another drain stopped working. So, I called them again. What they found was a serious problem. My home is 65 years old & had still the original cast iron sewer lines. One had corroded & cracked. It was leaking under the slab foundation. I got to see everything the camera showed & supervise the job from start to finish at each phase. My opinions on how I wanted things done were accepted graciously & implemented, while the technical aspects were explained clearly so that I could make informed decisions. Which, as a woman, I found very refreshing. It seems this kind of problem is their speciality. I was in one of those 'emergency' situations & the work needed to be done immediately. I must admit the price quote freaked me out. But they folded all the earlier work charges into that total & I didn't have time to go looking for other bids. So, I signed with them to do it. The old adages "You get what you pay for" & "You pay for what you get" both applied here. The team excavated under my home thru tunnel openings they jackhammered out of the slab in my laundry room & an outside walkway as if they were archeologists searching for Pharaoh's Tomb. They ran into many & varied unexpected problems but just handled them as part of the deal. They also managed to avoid damaging as much of my floor & wall tiling as possible & protected the areas they worked in from unnecessary damage. Using the most modern tech, they recreated a new sewer main, replaced all 4 sink, 2 toilet, & 2 shower drains from UNDERNEATH the slab! Only the back-to-back toilet closets required removing some existing tile floor inside the house in one bathroom. And they kept that hole as small as humanly possible. They also brought the main sewer line cleanouts up to the latest building codes with respect to septic tanks. The new cleanout close to the tank is a "pop-up" so that if the tank ever backs up it will release itself outside, instead of coming into the house. They even made it possible to clear the kitchen & laundry room sink drains thru a second cleanout at the other end of the main without going inside the house. The concrete installation crew did a wonderful job refilling the holes, too. Fernando helped me arrange for an instant, interest deferred* loan to get the work done, as well. When all is said & done, I am thrilled by the job they did. All their people were wonderful. Joseph had been the main lead on this job & I adore his great customer service attitude. There was nothing I needed or wanted that he wasn't ready to do himself or send someone to handle if it wasn't his area of expertise. As with most such jobs, it took longer than estimated (Murphy's Law applies, & his wife & kids will certainly stop by). I just accepted that fact. And, there will DUST! Lots & lots of fine, nose-irritating DUST!!! Protect &/or cover EVERYTHING you can, even if you think the dust won't get that far. Have some extra rags available to soak up water in case they are needed. BTW: *Be aware that deferred interest loans are tricky. If you can't be sure you are able to pay each monthly payment on time & in full, AND pay off the 'balloon' at the end of the deferred period BEFORE the due date they will cost you many times what the job costs, depending on how long it takes you to pay such a loan off. I knew I was able to set up my future finances so that I could do that. Please READ any such loan contract VERY carefully. 25% or more interest is NOT something you want to be charged! read more

I met that Robb Guys on a water damage/sewage project in Moorpark. He was friendly, reliable knowledgable and professional. One of the things I enjoyed hearing from Robb was a comment he made to the home owner, "I will not stop until your sewage issues are resolved." It was refreshing to hear his level of commitment to the solution he planned to provide. That Robb guy has exceptional customer service skills and love for solving plumbing problems. read more

Larceny at heart - right here in America. On November 16, 2022, I hired Rooter Solutions Plumbers CA lic #1071065 619-732-0410, to clear a clogged drain. Then they did a camera scope, thru a vent pipe and found a collapsed cast iron drain pipe in the front yard. And proposed a partial repair for $15.350.79 Last week a big tree fell on my house, and ServPro from Mercury insurance sent out American Leak Detectors to the job. Guess What?? The sewere is in great shape for 86 feet to the sewere in the street.--Contacting ClSB, re fraud, and Yelp re: being taken for a sucker. FYI, friends and Neighbors. Resentful In Escondido, but it's going to be fun and not spoil our day. Posted 2/8/2023 Next door read more

I'm happy to say that my experience with Rooter Solutions was pretty positive, and that they take care of their customers. Everyone messes us from time to time, and I'm happy to say that Rooter Solutions honors their warranty. Alberto and his team did a great and thorough job to make sure that our situation was taken care of, and Juan did his best to provide a good rate and courteous service. Overall, Alberto was great to work with, as he communicated very well and was very professional and courteous in our interactions. I'd recommend his workmanship to my friends and neighbors. read more

I should have checked their reviews BEFORE calling them. I was, like others, being drawn by their advertised drain cleaning coupon $54. Little do I know I ended up paying $550 and problem still not solved. The technician is not skilled and the manager is a sales person like another reviewer commented. After arrival, the technician snaked the pipe and told me it is not working. He called the manager who came with a camera and told me I need to hydro jet, or the drain will be clogged again. I wasn't sure at the moment but was scared/worried into agreeing to do the hydro jet, hoping it will buy me at least a year's smooth running pipe. I watched the technician spending about 20 min or so cleaning the pipe and then he told me everything is good. I didn't see anything come out. He said all gunks are pushed to city sewer. Right after he left, I am disappointed to find out the drain is still not good. I see small improvements but definitely not draining well. So I called the office, I was told technician and manager will call me back. NO ONE DID! I didn't use the sink for the night. The next day, I called office again. By that time. I am pretty upset and wanted to know if I can cancel the contract, since I was told I have 3 days to cancel if not satisfied. Of course, this won't be easy. Manager finally called and offered to come back to clean the pipe again. He has excuses like they were busy the day before, the message from office got lost, they were planning to come back to check the pipe the next day etc. He sounds defensive and hostile and he again being a sales person, talked me into sending another technician to make it right. Guess what? No one called me back and again, I am left in the dark with this drain problem. The one star is for the office, who at least makes me feel not being threatened or intimidated. read more

These guys came 90 minutes after my call. Clean, thorough, explained everything. Very pleased. They even threw in a camera view to double check the integrity of the pipes. read more
