Mr. Rooter PlumbingReviews of mrrooter.com

Charged my 89 year old aunt 366:00 to change the flush valve on her toilet. No up front pricing like they say in their advertising.when I called the manager he said that was their price and there is nothing they can do. What a ripoff, they take advantage of older people. Do not use them

Very impressive and nice rep came to house to do estimate. When estimate came everything grossly marked up so job price to install water heater with minor accessories amounted to $1480 above the price of the water heater. They contract with Lowe’s and are taking advantage of people.

Removed my toilet to reinstall one of the screws that got loose and decided to have a plumber do it because it's a new house for us. Price quote was $435 just to put the toilet back in place. I paid the $49.95 visit fee and then went to a local hardware store to buy the bolts and wax for $21. That is way too much for a maximum 30-minute job.

Terrible service. Unorganized and charges exorbitant costs without any clear explanation of cost basis. A one hour job with minimal expertise required they will gouge you during emergency stressful situations for more than $1000 per hour for a simple job. Zero explanation of why the cost is so high and whether justified. Avoid at all costs unless you want to be ripped off. They refuse to negotiate because they know they have the leverage when your pipes are broken.

Technician tried to sell us a maintenance plan...seemed more interest in that than the actual job...He then says it will be 2200! What?!!! Then he rips up our lawn looking for the septic tank lid...we told him three times he was in the wrong area...we ended up with a 5 foot by 2 foot trough & he still didn't find it! We politely told him to leave our property & he said "Give me a couple more hours I'll find the lid"...Seriously? We would like restitution for the damage to our lawn. The last company that did it made a square lifted it up did the septic & replaced the lawn square no problem...Our experience was a nightmare!

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE! The immense lack of professionalism, communication and care is unbelievable from a company. We had major plumbing issues that required a lot. I thought the initial call was perfectly fine only to go south. My water heater had to be moved in order to complete the job, they refuse to move it back unless I pay for a new water heater, which I do not need. Failed to protect my own personal property, there was mud all over my personal items. Mud all over my floor, tracked through my house and refused to clean or take any care. I cannot understand how they continue to have customers as the owner was extremely rude and unwilling to handle a customer complaint, only defend the poor work.

Bad experience at Mr Rooter. Rude customer service. Poor communication skills. Not professional. Never ever ask business with you. Root Rooter is 200% better and professional than Mr Rooter!

Do not use these people. They caused THOUSANDS in damage, admitted it and won't fix it!!!!! No idea how they have so many good reviews on google. And I rarely leave bad reviews. It takes A LOT. And to the company - don't reply to this asking me to contact you. We've tried. So many times since this began. You have our contact info if you want to make this right. Their inexperienced (lazy?) technicians will leave a job unfinished, causing more damage (in our case mud sucked into every plumbing fixture in our home) and then hand you a bill to repair what they broke. I could write you a novel about the first unprofessional tech who was in a hurry to get to a more lucrative job. Their second tech who needs anger management classes and their rude office staff. Here's the kicker - the third tech they sent out was amazing. (Shout out to Clinton who was decent and efficient) He repaired some of the issues at no cost because they knew it was their fault. Left a quote for the ruined fixtures that couldn't be fixed with bleeding the lines. And then the office, after doing that part for $0, told us they won't fix the rest. So only the mud in the repairable fixtures was your fault? The ruined ones are ours? HOW? Their quote, without the new fixtures that have to be bought, is thousands. THOUSANDS. For something they broke. Also their first tech said he tried to finish the job and come in to bleed the lines and we declined but wrote on his invoice that, after his repair failed two times prior, it needed to cure overnight and he couldn't check the water pressure. How are you offering to bleed lines when the water is off? Then he stated we tried to finish the repair before he arrived back at a scheduled appt the next day to fix it. We have in text where he's telling us how to finish the repair and asking if he needs to come back!! There was no scheduled appt. Or any plans for him to return. Because when we called the office to complain the tech called us back mad we called the office and saying he said he would come back. And the second tech screamed at me and said I screamed at him. My husband pointed at the camera on our front porch and said my wife didn't scream at you. He backed down so fast. And got super conciliatory. They say their work is guaranteed but when their techs mess up they won't fix it!!' These people are dishonest. 2/3 techs we got sent out were sub par and, as a female, not people I would ever want in my home while I was alone. Management is laughable. Avoid these people. I cannot say it enough. I'm sure some of that they do is fine. But when a problem occurs that they caused they won't make you whole. Don't be stuck with thousands in repairs like we are!!!!
