RR Plumbing Roto-Rooter

4.74,102 Google reviews

RR Plumbing Roto-Rooter is a Queens Village branch of a national plumbing brand, and its Google profile also lists excavating contractor among its categories. The Queens page names finding leaks underground or under concrete floors and examining and repairing sewer line leaks among a long menu of plumbing services. Sewer repair is one line on that menu, not the whole business.

What people praise

  • A plumber quickly found the root cause of a broken pipe during a late-night call and explained the repair as he made it
  • A camera inspection of the main line was booked as a follow-up after a basement backup
  • Crews are described as professional and tidy

Worth knowing

  • Few reviews mention a sewer line job specifically; most describe other plumbing repairs
  • One reviewer said it isn't the cheapest option

Our take: The most Google reviews on this page by a wide margin and a 24/7 emergency pitch on its site, but sewer repair is a small part of what its reviewers talk about. It suits a pipe emergency better than a planned sewer line replacement.

Our take: Its site lists the right sewer services and its 4.8 rating is solid, but the evidence of large sewer jobs comes from the website, not the reviews. Ask for examples of recent excavation work.

Behind the numbers

Rating is the live Google star average for each company, and volume is how many people have rated it. Confidence weighs the two together, so a 4.7 backed by thousands of customers counts for more than a 4.9 backed by a hundred or so. Recency shows whether reviews are still coming in. Nothing on the card is opinion, and no business can pay to change these figures.

What sets the price of a sewer line job in Queens

A sewer repair can be a short spot fix or a trench from the house to the street, so no honest single figure fits. Cost follows the length and depth of the pipe, what’s on top of it (a stoop, a driveway, concrete or lawn), whether the pipe is lined or dug out, and how much restoration work follows. Ask each company for a written scope that names those items.

Sewer repair near you in Queens

These plumbers are based in Queens Village, Richmond Hill and Flushing, and one Balkan reviewer had work done at a house in Brooklyn. For sewer line repair near me, call whichever office sits closest to you and ask who would be digging. Directions and phone numbers appear on each card.

What to ask about a sewer line repair

  • Will you camera-inspect the line first and show me the footage?
  • Is this a spot repair, a lining or a full replacement, and why?
  • What will you have to dig up, and who restores the concrete or lawn afterward?
  • Who files any paperwork the work requires, and is that in the quote?
  • Is there a guarantee on the replacement, in writing?

Frequently asked questions

Which of these Queens firms show sewer repair in their reviews?

Balkan Sewer & Water Main Service has the most direct evidence, with reviewers describing a broken sewer pipe, a lawn sinkhole and a rerouted sewer main. Roto-Rooter reviewers mention a broken-pipe repair and a camera follow-up. H&A Queens Plumbing and 718 Sewer & Drain list sewer work on their websites, but their reviews are mostly about other plumbing.

Does a sewer repair always mean digging up the yard?

Not necessarily. One Brooklyn homeowner with a sewer main under a brick and stone stoop had Balkan redirect the line under the foundation and out along the driveway instead of removing the stoop. 718 Sewer & Drain’s website lists excavation and video inspection as separate services, so ask which method fits your pipe.

Which firms mention camera inspection?

718 Sewer & Drain’s website lists video camera plumbing inspection, and one Roto-Rooter reviewer had a camera check of the main line scheduled after a basement backup. Balkan’s website says it can verify and locate a sewer defect before repairing it.

Are these companies based in Queens?

Roto-Rooter and H&A Queens Plumbing are in Queens Village, Balkan is in Richmond Hill and 718 Sewer & Drain is in Flushing.

Where to start

For a sewer line problem, start with Balkan Sewer & Water Main Service, whose reviews show the sewer work this page is about. Roto-Rooter is the volume leader if you need someone fast, and either way insist on a camera inspection and a written scope.
