I'm sure glad I called Patriotic Plumbing this week for a second opinion, they have saved me thousands!I had a clogged toilet which another plumbing company claimed that tree roots had destroyed the connection to the main sewer line. I was quoted a “spot repair” that could be completed the next day (it was Fri, so work could begin as early as Mon). This would require tile floor removal, jackhammering, digging under the foundation, concert pouring plus I will be on the hook for any surprises along the way. I was quoted thousands of dollars.Wanting a second opinion and second estimate for the work that was needed, I went back to google to look for options and found Patriotic Plumbing who arranged a next day plumbing consultation with Jason. Jason arrived on time (something the other company failed at three times) and showed him the toilet, which the other company had removed. The pipe was covered in roots and Jason said, “I bet they’re coming from the top here and growing down. Roots don’t grow up”. He went to his knees, pulled out his pocket knife and within 30 seconds had cut all the top roots. Once that was done with little effort he reached into the drain and extracted 3 ft of roots from the line. With the roots removed he was able to use his camera line to confirm there was no damage to the sewer pipe. Jason did this all without charging me and stopped the other guy from performing unnecessary work, costly collateral damage and ripping me off. I have already arranged for Patriotic Plumbing to handle next plumbing needs and will recommend them to others.
