The service provided was great, nothing to say about the work of the plumber. 5 stars to him. But the company charges felt way too much for the work. We would have liked to have the same plumber take care of other things in the house, but every time he check how much extra the company will charge for the job, the price just got too much. The plumber did an amazing job he selected a beautiful faucet to replace our old one. He did his best. But the company prices have no room for negotiation.
A million stars!!!! Steve and Lucas were absolutely amazing. My parents pipes burst and within 4 hours of calling they came and fixed everything!!! Very nice guys and dealt with my panicking. I will always use them if needed in the future and you all should too!!! Thank god for people like this!!! Thank you so much guys!!!
We got very quick service, I think the plumber actually arrived in less than an hour! After reviewing what was happening, he gave us our options and performed the option we selected. This happened in the late afternoon or early evening. It was already dark and there was a lot of snow on the ground.
I needed immediate, same day service in the early evening at my home. I went to the internet and looked up plumbing services that offered "24-hour, 7-day a week" availability. The first 3 places I called said that they could not get to me until the following day. Then I called Mr. Rooter. They were courteous and promptly got a technician to my house within an hour and a half. The technician, Lucas Kaufmann, was exceptional. The job was not easy, but he figured the problem out and got me all fixed up within an hour's time. Moving forward, I…
Despite what was quite obviously a busy day (day after Thanksgiving at 10pm) TJ came out and did not leave until the job was done! There were several setbacks, which at the late hour might have prompted him to leave- but he chose to stay and continue until the job was complete! I only have one bathroom so I was really hoping he could make it work, and he really did a wonderful job! So thankful for all of his help! I highly recommend TJ!
This is my second time using Mr. Rooter and I have to say they are an excellent company of experienced professionals! The service techs were courteous, experienced and actually spent time trying to figure out the issue before proposing the solution. They were also patient and answered all my questions without rushing the work. I will be using them again.
TJ was amazing! 10/10 recommend this company. We were in an emergency state of panic with a burst pipe in the middle of a bad snowstorm. TJ came with knowledge, professionalism, kindness, and found the root of the problem within five minutes of being here. We will be using him again in the spring to fix an outdoor issue he found!
The technicians were friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The price was too high I believe, but the technicians had no control over that. The technicians took their time and did a great job. I would use them again and also recommend them.
Excellent service! Charles and Nicholas of Mr. Rooter arrived to my scheduled service a few minutes early, wore sanitary shoe coverings, and were extremely professional. They found the source of my leak quickly and fixed the issue. While they here, I requested an additional hydraulic heating inspection which they accommodated. They were very knowledgeable and provided helpful tips. I highly recommend this team and I will definitely call them for all future plumbing needs!!
TJ came to my aid as the water pipe froze in my house. Although nothing could be done he gave me hints of what could be done my me which was very helpful. I found TJ very professional and caring about my situation. The best part of the very long night was the dogs adored him one wanted to accompany him to his next job. Thank you for employing such an amazing man. Plus today there is water running in the house. Thank you TJ and thank you Mr. Rooney plumbing for employing a man with helpful hints!!!!!
Mr. Rooter Plumbing has been helping homeowners and businesses with their plumbing needs for 50+ years. We offer top-notch plumbing services, including repiping, pipe replacement, burst pipe repair, and more. With our decades of experience in the plumbing industry, we understand what needs to be done to prevent frozen pipes. In today’s blog post, we will provide you with tips to protect your pipes from freezing.
Exposed pipes, especially those located in unheated spaces or along outside walls, are susceptible to freezing. We recommend you wrap them with pre-made pipe insulation or foam pipe sleeves. You can find pipe insulation materials in your local hardware store. This is a simple and inexpensive way to prevent burst pipes. If you need help, get in touch with a nearby plumbing repair service.
We get it—the Department of Energy advises homeowners to adjust their thermostats during the cold snap, but this idea is not good for your plumbing. Instead, you should keep the thermostat set to the same temperature during the day and night. You may see a slight increase in your heating bills, but it’s cheaper than burst pipe repair and water damage restoration.
If there are sinks and water-using appliances located near exterior walls, it’s advisable to leave cabinet doors open. This allows warm air to circulate around pipes in cabinets and vanities, thereby preventing them from freezing.
Pipes running through unheated spaces such as attics, basements, or garages don’t get as much warmth as they would in heated areas of your home. To prevent burst pipes, insulate the unheated areas in your home to keep the pipes warm and lower your heating bills at the same time. If you’re handy around your home, you can handle this yourself. And to prevent drafts, seal any air leaks around windows, doors, electrical outlets, and plumbing penetrations to prevent cold air from reaching your pipes.
Garages are often uninsulated and can get very cold, especially if they’re not heated. Keeping the garage door closed helps trap warm air from your house and prevent pipes from freezing.
Outside hose bibs and spigots can freeze and burst if water remains inside them. Before freezing weather arrives, shut off the water supply to these faucets and drain any remaining water by opening the tap and leaving it open until all the water has drained.
Have you ever heard your toilet refill even though no one has used it? This mysterious phenomenon, often called "ghost flushing," can be unsettling, but it's usually not paranormal. Instead, it's a common plumbing issue caused by a slow leak inside the toilet tank. While ghost flushing may seem like a minor annoyance, it can waste hundreds of gallons of water each month and increase your utility bills. Fortunately, a professional plumber can quickly identify the source of the problem and recommend the right solution.

A slow-moving drain may seem like a minor inconvenience, but it can signal anything from a small buildup near the drain opening to a serious obstruction deep inside the sewer line. The challenge is determining whether the problem can be solved with basic drain cleaning in Jackson, NJ or requires help from a professional plumber.

A water heater is one of the most important appliances in any home. From morning showers to laundry, dishwashing, and cleaning, your household depends on hot water every day. When a water heater is installed correctly, it can provide steady comfort, better energy efficiency, and reliable performance for years. When it is installed poorly, however, homeowners may deal with high utility bills, inconsistent temperatures, leaks, safety concerns, and early system failure.

Sewer problems can be stressful for any homeowner. In the past, repairing or replacing a damaged sewer line often meant digging long trenches across the yard. This process could tear up lawns, disturb gardens, damage landscaping, and leave homeowners with a major cleanup project after the plumbing work is finished. Today, trenchless technology offers a cleaner and less invasive solution.

Clean water is something every homeowner depends on daily. From drinking and cooking to bathing, laundry, and cleaning, water affects almost every part of household life. While many people think about water quality only when there is an obvious taste, odor, or color issue, more homeowners are now taking a proactive approach by investing in whole-house water filtration.

Water runs through many of the most important appliances in a home. Dishwashers, washing machines, water heaters, refrigerators, ice makers, coffee makers, and garbage disposals all depend on steady, clean water to work properly. When water quality is poor, these appliances can wear out faster, work harder, and require more frequent repairs. Improving water quality is one of the simplest ways homeowners can protect their plumbing system and extend the life of household appliances.

Your home's main water line is responsible for delivering clean, pressurized water from the municipal supply to every faucet, fixture, and appliance. Because it is buried underground, many homeowners don't think about it until something goes wrong. While repairs can solve minor issues, there are times when a complete water line replacement is the most practical solution. Understanding the advantages and disadvantages of replacing your main water line can help you make an informed decision when problems arise.

Most homeowners don't think much about their toilet unless it stops flushing. But what if your toilet rocks slightly when you sit down? Many people assume it's just a minor annoyance or a sign of normal wear and tear. In reality, a loose toilet can signal a hidden plumbing problem that deserves immediate attention.
