bathroom plumbing

We've used DrainWorks twice for plumbing issues and both experiences were fantastic. We had Mike Dunn come to our house and he is great. Mike is very professional; he explained the issues before proceeding with the work, and he fixed the problems quickly. I would highly recommend this company, both for quality of service and fair pricing.

Used camera on sanitary drain to determine source of the sewage back-up in our house.

We notice sewage water coming up the drain in our lanundry room Sunday morning and called DrainWorks immediately. They were able to send a Service Technician to our house within a few hours and he was able to diagnose the situation and explain to us what need ed to be done and provided contact names and phone numbers.

Unplug kitchen drain

Drainworks set up an appointment promptly when I called to unclog kitchen drain. I was disappointed that the plumber called later to push back the appointment a few hours. However, the plumber came at the new time, was polite, worked quickly, told us what he was doing and gave an estimate before the work started, cleaned the drain, and left without making a mess. He was very professional. I would recommend DrainWorks for plugged drains.

drains & watermain replaced

Upon return from a holiday I found water seeping into the basement. Called Drainworks because a friend had used them last summer and found them excellent. Armando arrived Monday morning to assess the problem and found it was a broken watermain outside the house leaking water under the basement and it was seeping in. The crew arrived Tuesday morning and upon further investigation it was found that in addition to digging up and replacing the watermain the old cast iron drains under the basement would have to be dug up and replaced as well. I went into shock at the price but the job was done quickly and well. The crew was very polite and respectful of my property. They cleaned up the place very nicely when they were finished. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to friends.

Diagnose and snake two drains

Called Drainworks in the morning and gave them a three hour window when I was available that day and they we able to work with that. They called a half hour before they were going to come and the technician arrived exactly at the specified time. The technician Jeremy Harris was polite and efficient. He diagnosed the problem andtold me up front what the cost would be. He did the job he said he would and cleaned up after himself. I am very satisfied with the work he performed. I would not hesitate to call this company again.

leaky toilet replaced

Called Drainworks on Monday and they were out to see us on Tuesday. It would've been the same day, except I was not able to be at the house that day. The plumber called 30 minutes before arrival and showed up on time. Gave me a quote to the penny and the work was completed as promised. Very professional.

drain repaire

They came the next day, got the work done quickly and left the house and work area very clean. They had done some work where I worked and I found them very helpful and clean so when my pipe backed up at home I didn't hesitate to call them. I have no complaints and would call them again if I need to.

Sewage line replacement

Our drain blocked up on one of the busiest and coldest days of the winter (Saturday after a major power outage), and Drainworks came to our rescue within an hour of our call. Lou assessed the problem, did a temporary fix and returned first thing Monday morning. He brought not 1 but 2 crews to get the job all done in one day (replaced an old clay pipe that was blocked by a large tree root). He balanced our concerns with our budget, minimized the damage to the front yard, and still provided a solution that was no more, nor less than was required. We were very happy with the service.
