Joel called right away to address my plumbing issue. Oz came my home that day and fixed my problem. He was kind, thorough and efficient. I will be reaching out Captain Rooter again.

I recently hired Captain Rooter Emergency Plumbers to relocate my hot water tank in order to accommodate a humidifier for my furnace. Joel and Ruben arrived promptly and were well-prepared to begin work. Joel took the time to thoroughly address all of my questions, and the project was completed to my satisfaction at a fair and reasonable rate. The team demonstrated professionalism, efficiency, and strong attention to detail throughout the process. I would highly recommend Joel and Captain Rooter for any plumbing needs and would not hesitate to use their services again in the future.

Oz came out within an hour of our call to address a leaking ceiling in our bathroom. He was professional, fairly priced and thorough. He was able to repair the toilet above the leak quickly and was diligent about cleaning up any mess left behind. I would definitely call this company again for my future plumbing needs.
