24Hr Drain Cleaning & Plumbing

24Hr Drain Cleaning & Plumbing works out of Lynn, on the North Shore, and the name says what people call them for: a clogged kitchen sink, a backed-up shower drain, a toilet that won't stop at 9pm on a Sunday. On Google, 107 ratings average 4.9 stars, and one name keeps showing up across them — Chris, who reviewers identify as the owner, sometimes working alongside a helper on bigger jobs. The last six months tell a consistent story: twelve reviews, none of them negative. One customer called in the morning and had Chris at the door within two hours for a kitchen sink clogged by a backed-up dishwasher, cleared in under an hour. Another, dealing with water backing into a basement sink on a Sunday afternoon, said he walked them through what was happening and stayed patient while they worked out the problem. A pattern repeats across these calls: Chris explains what's wrong before touching anything and skips the upsell — one review specifically credits him for not pushing pricier work when a simpler fix would do. That isn't new behavior. Across a broader history of 105 reviews stretching back to 2023, spanning Google, Thumbtack, and independent directories, the praise holds the same shape: fast callbacks, plain explanations, and cleanup once the work is done. Outside listings on sites like Prolp and ServiceAtlas put the rating in the same 4.8-4.9 range, which lines up with what's on Google itself. One thing worth asking about before booking: on at least one job, work on older plumbing ran longer than the original estimate, though the price held at what was quoted — a decent sign on honesty, but a reason to ask upfront how estimates handle surprises once the pipes are opened up. For a stubborn drain, a mystery leak, or a middle-of-the-night backup, this is a shop with the volume and consistency to back up a same-day call. Get the estimate in writing before the truck rolls, especially for anything beyond a straightforward clog.
