Reliable was scheduled to be at my house at 8 a.m. At 8:30 a.m. I called them asking on an ETA - they advised that the boss had called a last-minute meeting and everyone was running late. The technician arrived at 9:10 am. He was very friendly and professional. Had the job done in 20 minutes. I will call them again if needed.

Reliable came on time and did exactly what they said they would. I had a handyman clean the drain, but it backed up again. I called Reliable and they were there the next day and made sure the drain was cleaned out. It has been a year and I have not had an issue since.

Tom from Reliable was great to work with! He was polite, professional, and completed the job on time. He installed a gas line for our basement fireplace insert. We could not have asked for better service, and the price was more than fair. We will certainly use them again for future plumbing needs. Description of work: Gas line installation.

“A” Description of work: Drain Cleaning.
Reliable impressed us by PROMPTLY returning our calls, even during the holiday and the evening. We felt APPRECIATED as a customer - even received a personal THANK YOU note for our business. We'd planned to have a spigot replaced (only) but Chris was able to also install a utility faucet that has slowly leaked for a year!
Erin Maseth North Ridgeville, OH

Chris arrived on time. He introduced himself and asked what issues I was having. After I told him about my drain problems, he got right to work. With a little effort, Chris found the 6" sewer drain clean out buried 12" under the surface of the front lawn. He opened the drain clean out and stated that everything looked "OK". I asked to have the drain cleaned anyway just to be sure. He ran the snake out to the street and then back into the house. Did not find any issues, just like was initially indicated. He opened 2 cleanouts in the basement and again, no issues were found. Recommended that new toilets be purchased. |Chris was very professional during the entire visit, which lasted about 1 hour. He also did a great job of cleaning up and making sure the lawn was put back where the hole was dug. Very pleased with the work performed.

They arrived on time and were neat. They dug the entire basement wall down to the footer and cleaned the wall before they repaired the crack. They were neat and clean during the whole process making sure to protect the lawn from damage.
Description of work: Basement wall crack repair.
Rachelle Pengov North Ridgeville, OH

They arrived at the agreed-upon time. After completing the clearing of the line, they proceeded to jetting a second line on the other side of our condominium complex because the job was billed by the hour and there was time to do this at no additional cost. During the second jetting their equipment blew a high-pressure hose. They left to have the hose repaired then returned to complete the job. I was pleasantly surprised to have the extra line cleaned. Our previous plumber was always prompt and did a good job but would have charged for the second line. Workmen were courteous throughout my interaction with them. We will call them for our future plumbing needs and recommend them to others looking for a plumbing company.
Description of work: Water jetted sanitary sewer drains.
Gary Fisher, Board President Evergreen Meadows Condo Assoc.

Good, there was no mess afterward. They did a yucky job neatly and discreetly and left the basement clean.
Description of work: Cleaned a drain.
Diane Debevec Elyria, OH

The technician arrived punctually and went right to work. I'm not willing to spend a lot of money to solve a small amount of water in my basement, so he suggested diverting a downspout in the corner where it appears the water is entering. We've not had any rain yet, so I don't know if the diverting helped, but I am satisfied that this is a good first step. He also snaked a very plugged garage drain and tightened two faucets that were leaking.

David Glowe Avon Lake, OH

They did a really good job. They came in with a sump pump and the sump pump was a little pricey. I had a flood back in February. They were able to come over right away because I could not get my basement restored until I got a working sump pump. The owner told me that the one they use is php pro-series pump. It was $1,300 and he kind of convinced me that he was selling a good product. I also did some research on my own. So I went in and this was back in February. Months later I started having issues with the pump. It has a primary, a secondary system and then it has a deep cycle battery on the pump. I started having some issues with it and the secondary pump was activated all the time. So I called him and they came out and checked it. It was fine. I called him again. They took the pump out and replaced the pump free of charge. They sent the other one back to the company. I would call them again. I would give them very good ratings. They are really good.
Description of work: I used Reliable Basement and Drain LLC to put in a sump pump for me after a flood. They have also done refitting of plumbing appliances in my home. I have had them 2 or 3 times and I was really pleased with them.
Christopher Worthy, Oberlin, OH

I called them at approximately 7:30 AM. to report that my garbage disposer was leaking and not working. The service technician arrived at my house by 9:30, checked my 10 year old disposer, and discovered that it had rusted through. He replaced it and was finished by 10:00. I couldn't be happier.
Description of work: Installed a new garbage disposer.
Cheryl Steris Sheffield Lake, OH

Good experience. Polite, came when promised and cost was exactly as quoted.
Only problem I encountered was that i was supposed to get a call when the tech was on his way and did not. This caused him to have to wait till I was able to get home from work. I was not charged extra for this.
Description of work: clean main drain to the house
Cheryl McCourt Grafton, OH

Came in for a leak in my basement. Determine it was not a sewer back up . Diagnosed water coming from the sprinkler line. Went outside and saw the sprinkler overflowing at the pop off valve. I did not drain the line properly. Water was running down pipe and into my basement. He shut off the line and bled it. I did the rest in terms of game planning repair,
Description of work: Fast response on a Sunday to a basement water leak that turned out to be from my sprinkler system.
Paul Pirozzola Rocky River, OH

They dug up one side of the foundation where the driveway met the wall, repaired some cracks in the foundation, painted on a waterproofing sealer, installed a liner along the entire wall, installed an exterior crock with sump pump and filled with gravel, Overhead wires above the driveway were a bit of a challenge, but the equipment operator was expert at working around these. They had to cut the concrete drive to dig, but only cut enough for their excavation and didn't destroy the whole driveway. They were prompt with the estimate and able to schedule while I was on vacation. Cleanup was great...they took care to not damage the area too much.
Description of work: Repaired a leaking basement wall where the driveway met the foundation.
Cathy Gilmore Elyria, OH

They did a really nice job. They did waterproofing. Their prices were a little tough. Their quality of work was excellent. The guys did a terrific job and were very clean, organized, and quick. They came up the day after I called them. They were right on-time. The guys were courteous and careful.

Carrie Mowery Fairview Park, OH

I had water backing up into the drains of my (slab) house. I called them late morning and Bryan was out later that afternoon to clean out the drain. I came out to see how things were going and saw him using a camera to check the drain to the inside of the house and to the street. To my surprise, he informed me that the rest of the pipe was good and the one area that did have a problem was near the cleanout away from any trees. He had cleaned out the drain and gave me an estimate on replacing the portion that eventually would need to be done so this would not continue to happen in the future. The estimate I feel was reasonable and will use them again to do this later. Bryan gave me some suggestions and was very informative/professional/pleasant. Glad I found their card that I had saved from years back. Used their Angie’s list coupon for 15% off, also. Great deal.
Description of work: Cleared out roots in sewer drain through cleanout. I also used them years ago when they were Lorain County Sewer and Drain.
Anna McGinty North Ridgeville, OH

They showed up when they said they would and performed the job quickly and professionally. The price was as quoted. We had a minor problem with the equipment and they responded promptly. I would highly recommend using them.

I called Ken in mid December and he was out the next day to check out the job. He was back to me the next day with a price. I told him I would be ready for the job to start the first week of January. He put me on the schedule for the first Monday in January. They showed up right on time and went straight to work. Busted up the bathroom floor the first day and got all the old pipes dug out. I think by the 3rd day the bathroom floor was fixed up. Very nice job with the patch too. The seam is not too big and should be easy to put flooring over it. By Friday they were running water lines. They stopped back on Monday to tie up a few loose ends. Overall they did outstanding work and left the place neat. If I need plumbing work done again this will be my first call.
Description of work: Replaced all sewer and vent lines from under basement floor up to upstairs bathroom. Ran new water lines for both bathrooms.
James Brailler North Ridgeville, OH

Ken and Reliable Drain did a great job diagnosing the problem. They came out in January 2010 and cleaned out the draining system going to the street. They found roots blocking the drain to the street. They cut out the roots and installed a crock to monitor the drainage. The water still did not drain out of the heating ducts so they had to return another time. At this time they drilled holes in the foundation allowing the water to drain out of the ducts. This worked until October 2010 when I noticed water in the heating ducts again. Reliable Drain then came back out and re-drilled the holes which clogged then connected the holes foundation to the crock so it would continuously drain. They did a great job and I would definitely use them again.
Description of work: Water in the heating ducts at a property built on a slab because the water table under the house would not drain. Cut out roots in the drain going to the street. Put in a crock to monitor the water conditions. Drilled a hole in the slab to drain the water and connected it to the crock.
