Best Drain Cleaning in Portland OR

Last week we had Patrick from Clog Pro come out to fix an outdoor drain that had backed up. I had tried clearing & snaking it myself, but just could not get it unclogged. He was able to fix it without any problems, and was super communicative & friendly while doing so. We just got a fixer-upper house last year, so have met with a ton of contractors - he was one of the most pleasant I've dealt with. 5 star service.

The reason I give only a 4-star review is:
1. Little bit expensive - $219 minimum for a simple 20 minute job.
2. Appointment was something like 4-5 days after scheduling. Considering this drain was flooding into our house after storms, if there had been any other heavy rain forecast in the meantime we'd have needed a different company unless they do emergency scheduling (which wasn't mentioned).

I'll probably go with them next time if the scheduling works out just because excellent service is hard to find.

Very happy with Sky Heating. Had a quite difficult problem that other companies couldn't/wouldn't fix. These guys got it done. 1) The women on the phone (so far it's been all women). Excellent and very easy to talk to. Many home service companies have surly people in the office. But these ladies are great (and probably don't get the recognition they deserve). 2) Salesman who came to my house. Didn't get a sale but ended up with a happy customer. Thanks! 3) The two techs who did the work. Both were pleasant, knowledgeable, efficient and cared about the work they do. Full recommendation from me.

A fine company.  I was recommended by a friend, and had them out twice to my new (old) house for some work.  First they dealt with a leaky drain under the foundation, and then came back to install some backflow preventers on my sump pump.

The guy who came out knew what he was doing, and was clear about his recommendations and did a fine job.

Dealing with their office over email was OK -- not great (I get the impression they normally do business over the phone, which I cannot stand), but they did confirm my appointment and whatnot.  They were pretty slow (about 45 days) to get the bill out to me (which, not like I'm in a huge hurry to pay them, though I'd kind of forgotten about it).  That's the main reason I went from 4 to 5 stars.

Pricing I think seems about normal for a plumber.  Certainly not cheap, though I didn't feel gauged or anything.

I'll definitely use Tri Star again as I have need for a plumber.

He responded immediately and came over the same day. He inspected the sink disposal and was very knowledgeable. He was very professional and pleasant. He explained his fees clearly. He picked up the new one and installed it right away. He then helped out by doing extra work such as cleaning out another drain and installing a door lock at no extra charge which made his cost a good value. Overall outstanding!

We called and had an appointment the next day!! We've had issues with the tub downstairs since we bought our home and have had many different companies come out on multiple occasions just to have the problem resurface months or unfortunately sometimes days after. Bret showed up at the beginning of our scheduled window which was great, listened to what the problem was and gave me my options. We went with the more expensive option since the other, which was to snake it, has already been tried and failed. Within the hour my line was cleared and my soaking tub was draining like the day it was installed (or so I assume :) ) The fact that Bret was able to come over the next day, had the knowledge to fix the issue and actually do so was a very refreshing experience. I'm not sure how many other people go through the struggle of having professionals come to their homes to fix an issue and not but still have to pay for it, but it's one of the most frustrating things I've had to deal with being a home owner. Thank you Bret Carpenter and Mr. Rooter for making this an easy and painless experience! I will definitely be calling you again for any plumbing needs in the future!

Our toilet got clogged late in the night. I called Kevin the next morning. He came over quickly, fixed it, and gave me some good advice, taking the time to explain to me how the system works. Also, the price was reasonable and he made himself available if anything else happened after the fix. 5 stars

I can't sing the praises of Fusion Plumbing enough. I had a handy person come to fix a drippy faucet and they fixed the drip but messed up the pipes so the faucet no longer could attach. My house is closing in a few days and I was in a panic. I called them first because of their reviews but I didn't know when I could get an appointment. I called 15+ other businesses that claimed to be 24/7 emergency and none of them could come. They were able to come same day and they fixed a VERY complex issue quickly and efficiently. They also tested it several times to make sure it worked. This was the only win I've had in weeks. They came in, they were professional, knew their stuff, and saved the day. I can't recommend them enough. Seriously though, they are the BEST!

Chris was very quick to respond to my request. I was able to schedule an appointment quickly, he arrived on time and did the job very well at the price he quoted. Great experience.

I Use terry on all my plumbing projects from smaller type jobs to full kitchen and bath remodels.  He is definitely one of the best plumbers around.

Incredibly nice and helpful. Also we all know the most important quality in a contractor is honesty and feeling confident you are not getting ripped off and Dave is grade A in that department. Called him to unclog a kitchen sink and even though it turned out to be a crazy job that took 3 hours he only charged his standard rate. Not to mention he was the only plumber in Portland working Labor Day weekend apparently. He even offered to snake out a basement drain he noticed was clogged for free. Can't recommend this guy enough. Wish all contractors were like him.

Excellent, professional, and prompt service.  We got a quick response that was professional.  The crew cleaned up well after the tankless hot water heater install, and they were very courteous.

These folks are AWESOME with a big 'A'.  A frozen water line due to the 'Big Freeze' in PDX today.  And these folks (Jeremy) was there within one hour. Severe water was running down interior walls throughout multiple levels of the house and with only our son Christopher who is living in the PDX place.  They isolated and drained frozen water lines . Thanks so much that Chris was there and notified me as it could have been much more nasty and destructive. And thanks so much that I knew of this great plumbing company (Cornel's).   Jeremy from Cornel's Plumbing was incredibly competent and knowledgeable tracing down the busted water line and isolating it to prevent further damage.  Folks in HI (where I live most of the year) are not used to severe cold like this... of course, climate change is 'Fake News'  according to the Orange one...

Did chose this company because. We need to replace a gas hot water heater.

1. They quoted us $6,000. We didn't bite...

2. Then they quoted us $4,000. We still didn't bite...and got rid of the employee.

We went with another company for $2,000. Through Home Depot.

Then Apollo bombarded us with emails acting as if we were going to hire them...

These guys are expensive. They charged my parents $300 to install a basic kitchen faucet - about an hour of work. Granted, my parents did not ask for a quote before starting (I lectured them), but come on, $300? The faucet itself  was only $248. The worker was nice and did a good job, but way too pricey.

William, the technician they sent to my house to connect all our under sink plumbing after we removed our sink to re-do our counters was the rudest, grouchiest man! I had called before scheduling the appointment to get an estimate (which turned out to be way more than everywhere else). Unknown to me at the time, they charge based on the job rather than by the hour like most plumbers. Other plumbers were about $85/hr and the job ended up taking 1.5hrs to complete, but I was charged $337 (nearly 4 hours worth of time). When I tested the dishwasher and water filter, neither had water going to them. When I pointed it out, he rudely told me that he had connected the pipes he was supposed to, and if the water was turned off it was not his job to turn it back on. Umm... I think as a plumber that is precisely your job! I would assume when hiring someone to connect your pipes, that testing them to make sure they work is part of the process... One of the pipes was leaking (which it hadn't been before) yet instead of admitting faulty reconnection as I'm inclined to believe, he insisted I needed a new pipe and charged another $99 on top of my already exorbitant rate. He was EXTREMELY RUDE the entire time. The friendliest thing he did was after I gave im my credit card to pay, he told me I would have been better off buying a new garbage disposal, new pipes and doing it all myself for how much I paid him...yeahhh... thanks...

Absolutely excellent plumbing company!  They plumbed in a sink in our garage and it is perfect!  They will be out tomorrow to install a new kitchen faucet. We keep thinking of plumbing projects now haha!  They are that good!  Good contractors are so hard to find these days. They are excellent!

Austin @ myplumberllc is simply a great choice for a plumbing service! We are leasing a large house and our upstairs shower has a leak that is traveling down and leaking out of the ceiling downstairs! Yikes! Austin was professional and knowledgeable in finding the leak. He knew what it probably was, but still thoroughly checked out every other possibility. Yes, what he though it was, after so many years of experience was definitely what he thought it was.;-) The owners of this house are going to go with the inexpensive and not 100% fix but oh well, their house. If the real 100% fix is needed, which is going up through the ceiling to replace the cracked drain, I hope that they choose Austin & his company because he will do it and do it right! If it was our decision, we would choose differently, but again, not our house. Do yourself a favor and go with Austin and My Plumber the 1st time. 5 Stars.;-)

We used Henco plumbing to come to our house to assess our toilet. We were charged at the time of service on our credit card for the $89 fee back in OCTOBER of 2022. Now, in July we have received a phone call stating they have never received payment and we need to pay. I let the lady on the phone know I want to go through my bank statements and I would like to get back to her because my husband has been in the hospital (fighting for his life, btw). Two weeks later I get a final notice letter in the mail. This bill they claim we owe has not been an issue to them for 10 months and all of a sudden they can't give me some time to reconcile my bills and cc's to make sure I was not in fact charged last year with what I have going on. I remember distinctly signing their tablet with the worker that was at the house after the cc was charged.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! VERY SHADY!!

Complete scam.  When I questioned the manager why the material charge was so high, he told me that they purchased an amount of piping that was more than twice as much as was needed. I was never compensated for this extra' material.    They will charge you $100 as a fuel surcharge even if they are a few minutes from your property.   They will also charge you for the time to get materials - in my experience it took over an hour and a half.  I checked the pricing on the materials and they upcharge 40%.  Chaz, the manager, will not take your calls once he knows you are a disgruntled customer.  They price gouge and are extremely dishonest.  Avoid.

The plumbing in my house backed up. When i googled roto rooter, a bunch of other companies popped up saying $85-$93 drain cleaning services.

I decided to call roto rooter and let the gal know the plumbing had backed up and asked if she had an idea of price, she told me they would need someone to assess before giving me a quote.
She gave me a time frame of when the people would be arriving and even said they might be earlier but they showed up late. I told them the problem, they came in my house and saw my bathtub and then said it would be $469 to fix. I was utterly SHOCKED by this price. Didn't feel like I had much of a choice as I had already waited hours for them to arrive and getting another company out could take even longer-- will not use them again
