Best Emergency Services in Saint Paul MN

My hot water stopped working, so I used Yelp to request a quote.  I thought I was asking for a quote from a specific company, but it turns out that Yelp sends it out to all the plumbers in your area, and you can choose.  

Roman replied to my message almost immediately.  He was doing another job in the area, and said he could come over in half an hour.  That is amazing responsiveness.  He was professional and polite.  He looked at the water tank, but told me that I actually need to call the company that services the boiler to come out for regular maintenance.  But he did fix my water softener while he was here.  Apparently, I had filled it up too high and it caused the salt to clump, so it couldn't run through the system.  He explained how to fix it if it happens again.  

I would definitely recommend Rescue if you have any plumbing or sewer problems.  They are honest and knowledgeable, and respond quickly.

The best in the business! We've used them a few times now and they never fail to exceed our expectations. Fast, friendly, and professional service. We will definitely be calling Legend the next time we need heating, ac, or plumbing work done. Thank you, Erik, for getting our ac fixed so quick!

Cardinal Services was amazing!  I had a similar experience as another reviewer.  We were told by Uptown that they would never be able to clear more than 20% of the sewer line because of roots and they recommended replacing several feet of the line for $5000.  I was looking for a second opinion and found Gene's Water & Sewer who recommended Cardinal Services.  Cardinal Services was able to almost completely remove the roots and showed me with the camera that there is very little wrong with my sewer line.  I will have to have it cleaned every couple of years but they saved me a lot of money.    I highly recommend Cardinal Services.

So, my kitchen faucet decided to go berserk and I seemed to exacerbate the problem trying to fix it.

Well, I searched and got a quote from a few companies. I'd booked with a different company, who texted at the last minute that they weren't going to be there on time. Not getting a new time, I reached out again to those who had responded.

Metro had originally stated that they could come out on Friday. I didn't want to wait that long, so I got on their list to see if they'd make it out on Thursday. I was contacted a short time later that someone would be out between noon and 4.

Relieved, I got back to work. It was close to 3 when the nice young man arrived. I let him in and ge went right to work. Less than 30 minutes later, he'd cleaned out and tightened everything that caused the issue. The cost was $120.

This was a quick,inexpensive repair with very friendly service. I've already given their name to a friend who's having plumbing issues at his home.

Thanks Metro! I know who to call when the need arises again.

I contacted Mike to clear my kitchen drain which had backed up. I was able to schedule an appointment the next day. He was terrific! On time, meticulous, polite. I had been referred to another company but wanted to get some other quotes. Mike was almost half the cost of others. I very rarely write reviews but want to support this business.
Hire him- you will not be disappointed.

My kitchen faucet had some horrendous water issues to the point it was barley a trickle. After hiring another plumber that diagnosed the problem who then left me with no running water, I was in desperate need of a plumber. Mike was super responsive came by to fix the kitchen faucet on Friday. He was prompt, very pleasant and his customer service skills were fantastic. He went above and beyond and also fixed my garbage disposal. I was so impressed with the amazing service and such a good price! I will always always be calling Valley plumbing in the future!

Excellent !!   I called several places late afternoon and these guys were still able to come out that day. Rob came and did an excellent job. Courteous, professional and efficient, what more can you ask for. They were also cheaper by far from the four other places I called. Rob went above and beyond and I couldn't be happier, I will definitely be using American Sewer again, and would say to you don't waste your time,  just call these guys.

Excellent job! Needed my main sewer line cleaned out. Professional, courteous and very competitive pricing. Would definitely recommend and call them again!

Fantastic service at a great price!

We had our basement drain next to our washer start to fill with water after taking a shower and washing our clothes. It was Mother's day and we didn't have a lot of options. We found John's after a bit of googling and good reviews and reached out to them. They were willing to send someone out that same day, but the price had an increase as expected. Thankfully the water did drain and we decided to wait until the next day.

Pat came out and was prompt and very quick to find the problem. After pulling out a large amount of roots, he confirmed it was all cleared out by sending a camera down the main line. He showed me on the cam and made us feel much more comfortable.

Highly recommend these guys as they are affordable and do a fantastic job!

Great plumbers. Me and my wife both really loved the new bathroom they put in for us. We bought an old old house and they were the best price around and they did excellent work. Would refer them very satisfied.

Thank you so much for the prompt and professional service that you continue to show us! we are so happy with you guys!

So, when your hot water heater decides to crap out on you, unless you like cold showers and the green apple quick step that cold washed dishes usually brings, you gotta move. Called Home Depot because of their same day installation promise.  While due to weather and the impending New Year's holiday it ended up taking two days, they sent RC out to my house today and he installed it so quickly I was convinced he had just painted my old one while I wasn't looking. The install price, even with whatever Home Depot takes as a cut, was very good. I had two requirements for the job.  Don't blow up my house, and make my water hot again.  It's only been two hours since he left, but so far RC is two for two. Doing such great work on the final day of the year, he deserves a fat raise and the employee of the month award.

I spoke with Jermiah. I also spoke with Keith. The person that came to my house was named Luke. I explained the problem and he wanted to try the motorized snake. It didn't work. The clog was too deep. Luke was in over his head, he called Keith a few times while he was at my place. He wanted to see were my home connected to the main sewer line (we live in a mobile home) It is underneath and I showed him. He very obviously balked at what needed to be done. I asked if their company had a jetter. He called Keith again (or at least pretended to) And then told me Keith would be out with a jetter later that night. He also told me I would have to pay more he said ridiculously expensive. I told him I don't care how much it costs this has to get done now. So again he tells me Keith will be out but it might be very late. I asked for Keith's number and he told me it was against company policy for him to give me the number (even though I already had the number because Keith had called me a couple times earlier in the week.) He then wanted to settle up with me and I said I would pay when the job was finished. He said something about having 2 invoices because it will be 2 jobs. He only charged me $115 for the service call. He did not charge me for the snaking or his time. 2 hours after he left I called Keith and asked him if he was coming with a jetter. Keith said -I don't know what you're talking about, I don't have a jetter, our jetter is in the shop, I got 2 more jobs tonight and I'm going home.- The bottom line is, I paid somebody $115 to rip my toilet off, he didn't even re-install it. Then they abandoned the job.

The WHOLE time, this plumber told me about how juicy his pear was. He told me it was ripe and other inappropriate things. It disgusted me and my 37 year old son who lives in my basement. He told me the plumber was fruity. I guess that explains why he likes pears. He left me in a state of confusion

We recently called them to do a simple job - update the gas shut off valves on our water heaters (for a duplex rental property).  In order for him to do his job, he had to turn off the gas (main valve on the exterior of the property) going into the house. When the service plumber - Pedro Berrios - left, our water heater wasn't functioning and our gas furnace was off.  We had to manually turn our water heaters on ourselves and our gas furnace is now no longer functioning (as a result of it being off for several hours).  He informed me this was all a coincidence and it had nothing to do with him.  Unless you want to spend more money, do not call this company - all they do is cause more problems.

They were recommended to me from Home Advisor. Technician came over to repair my toilet, gave me a very expensive quote. I declined but had to pay $90 for a service call. Buyer beware!

The good things about Genz Ryan, when you call them you talk to a live person and they were very prompt about getting a technician out to fix my furnance, which had stopped working.

The bad thing (the 1st), the  technician did his investigation and came back to tell me that my furnance was shot and it would cost me $10,000 to replace it.  I felt very pressurred that was my only option.  I inquired about other options, such as fixing it and what could he do that and He quoted me a 'band-aid' fix, for only $500, but, ensured me that it wouldn't last.  I opted for the cheaper repair, because I would not spend that kind of money without a second opinion.

The bad thing (the 2nd), the technician needed to charge my card, before he could proceed with the repairs.  Again my heat was out and I'll felt pressured, but I reluctantly agreed.  In hind site, I cant ever recall asking for payment before the job was completed... Never, never, never!!!. After he got my money, he took off for 2 hours to go  pick up my parts., wonder where the parts depot was... Wisconsin?

The bad thing (the 3rd) the technician failed to show me any of the parts that he replaced, in fact he worked on the repair out in his truck... Remember my furnance  is in my house not in his truck.  Something doesn't smell right!!!

The bad thing (the 4th), the technician left without giving me a bill for the work and a receipt for my credit card (I had no idea of what he charged me for, labor or parts).  What kind of company doesn't issue a bill for repairs for services rendered?  Something really doesn't smell right?

The bad thing (the 5th), after the technician left, I called Genz Ryan and told them the technician left without giving me a bill or cc receipt.  The lady said technicians can't print bills... Really what kind of company doesn't provide their technicians with proper equipment to print receipts for their services, how about giving them a pen paper!!!???

The bad thing (the 6th), I got the bill (emailed to me) and it didn't detail the cost of the parts, the labor, the number of hours spent, just a total amount. When I asked about the free service call for the coupon that I had, she told me that it was built into the price... Really!!!

And finally the ugly, when I asked the lady at Genz Ryan what is the warranty for their work, she promptly responded there is NO WARRANTY for their parts or work.  A company that doesn't  warranty their work is one that should be avoided at all costs!!!

I would not recommend this company based upon their pressure tactics to replace an entire furnance vs fix it, lack of ability of supporting receipts/ detailed statement and lack of warranty for their workmanship.

BTW, I had my AC replaced 2 weeks ago and I asked the technician if their was anything wrong with the furnance and he said no, it should last another 10 years.

Genz Ryan - I don't love you guys...  I hate you guys!!!
