Accountability & Trust
Roto-Rooter scores well for accountability and trust. They have been in business for 14 years, and they have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. They have had 2 complaints filed against them with the Better Business Bureau over the past 3 years. The average plumbing company in Calgary has had 0.7 complaints over the same time frame.
Roto-Rooter is also accredited by the Better Business Bureau which we believe is important to create accountability. Presently, only 50% of Calgary’s plumbers are accredited by the Better Business Bureau.
Online Reviews
When it comes to reviews and ratings found on solid online business review sites, the company performs moderately with average reviews on HomeStars, Google, and Yelp. We were concerned to see some unnatural patterns in their online reviews. This can happen sometimes when plumbing companies encourage a lot of their happiest clients to rate the company on specific review sites.
Warranties & Satisfaction Guarantee
Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Drain Services
403-250-2660
4726 14 Street NE
Calgary, AB T2E 6L7
We believe it is very important that every plumber assure the quality of their work in some way. The most common ways to do this are with a parts and labour warranty and sometimes – in the best cases – with a satisfaction guarantee on top of all this. A satisfaction guarantee assures you, the one footing the bill, that the work you pay for is not finished until you’re satisfied that it’s done.
Roto-Rooter has not publicly released any information about supplying clients with a specific warranty or satisfaction guarantee.
