The Drain Medic gets called when a drain or a main sewer line backs up. A recent customer called on a Saturday night after backups in the basement; they came out immediately, explained the hydro jet they would use and its price, and cleared the drains. A recent customer said they arrived within an hour and gave the price up front, along with a potential price if the first fix didn't work. The website advertises 24/7 emergency service. A recent customer said Raphael, the owner, got there in under an hour, cleared out an entire pipe and walked them through each step. In a 2026 review, a customer said Raphael recommended clearing the main line with a water jet after a snake had not cleared it, and arrived exactly when he said he would. In a 2022 review, a customer said Rafael brought a water line excavation crew to replace a leaking galvanized supply line with copper, using two access holes, in about five hours. A 2025 customer said a technician spent almost 3 hours on a kitchen sink drain, charged $450, left the problem unsolved, wanted $900 more and damaged countertops. In a 2023 review, a customer said an agreed $1200 main sewer line job came to $1650 on the invoice, under a form line allowing extra charges if more than one pass was needed. A 2023 customer said Rafael cleared the main but left raw sewage in the basement, and they had to hire a clean-up company.
Came within an hour of me calling and got the job done quickly. Gave me the price up front, as well as a potential price if the first fix didn't work!
Highly recommend for your plumbing needs! Super fast response and quality, friendly service.
Great person quick response . Quick and clean job
We called The Drain Medic on a Saturday night about 5:00 after backups in the basement. They came out immediately. They explained the process, a hydro jet, they would use and the price of the treatment. The job was completed and drains were cleared in a timely manner. They were professional and personable. I would definitely recommend The Drain Medic to everyone. Thanks for being so prompt! I'm still waiting for 2 other companies to call me back!
Rafael was excellent. Great service and was at our house FAST.
