I had a plugged up bathtub drain and the water would not go down no matter that I already poured two bottles of Draino onto it. then I had the great pleasure of using a bucket to get the water and Draino out. What a wonderful smell that was.\r
\r
I called Friendly Plumber and was told that they do not specialize in drain cleaning, but rooter companies in the yellow pages have the equipment, and apprentice personnel to operate them. They said mention yellow page coupons too because I can get more discounts that way.\r

I called the company with the really good looking guy in the picture. Sadly, he didn't come. Just an average fattish guy, but I digress. A little over $200 later, this same guy told me that my pipes were shot and it would cost roughly $22,850.00 to replace my pipes. !!!!!!! Exclamation point time !!!!!!!!!! He's nuts! NVTS, nuts!\r
\r
After I stopped panicking, I promptly told him to get out of my house and I called Friendly Plumber again because their $30.00 trip charge sounded really good for another opinion, at least. Well, they fixed a small part of pipe and charged me $1,200.00. Oh that was so very much better! What was that other fatso thinking? Did I look like just another Asian chump to him?\r
\r
Anyway, it sucked that I had to endure fatso at all. Maybe next time HAVING THE EQUIPMENT would have made my life easier? Just a thought for your management. Your guy was really good by the way, really courteous and creative. But I'm firm on this, HAVE THE EQUIPMENT next time.
