Accountability & Trust
Mr. Rooter scores well in the category of accountability and trust. They have been in business for 29 years, and they have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. They have had 5 complaints filed against them with the Better Business Bureau over the past 3 years. Other plumbing companies in Greater Vancouver have received an average of 1 complaint over the same time period.
Mr. Rooter is also accredited by the Better Business Bureau which we think is important for creating a level of accountability. Currently only 50% of Greater Vancouver’s plumbing companies are accredited by the Better Business Bureau. From our perspective, Mr. Rooter could improve further by working on their online ratings.
Online Reviews
When it comes to reviews and ratings found on solid online business review sites, the company could do better by improving on some of their low 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.

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.
It’s good to see that Mr. Rooter offers a parts and labour guarantee.
