    Excellent customer service - came up with various options to clear out ice from the roof vent pipe and gave me the pros and cons of each before I made a final decision.Professional, timely, extremely helpful.

    We were very pleased with the the 2 young men who responded quickly, efficiently and professionally to our old home and its backing up main water line. They knew exactly how to access it, clear it and clean up afterwards. While there they were willing to extend their visit to check and clean out the drains of the shower, tub and bathroom sinks. I felt their fee was fair and reasonable and I really appreciated them going the extra mile for us. Thank you.

    These guys were great! They tracked down the cause of the problem. Explained it clearly. And took care of it. For me, this meant determining that there was an issue with my septic pump. They dug up the pump cover. Found that the pump float was stuck. They unstuck it, and got everything flowing. They were friendly, polite, knowledgeable, and efficient. The cost was reasonable.

    Amazing service, very quick response, good communication, and much more affordable than the competition. Cleaned out the sewer line, provided a complete video image to see if there were problems and fixed a blockage at the septic tank. Very pleased.

    We had a septic backup at a family vacation home and did not know who to call since we are from out of state. Thankfully we called Able. They came on short notice, found the source of the problem, helped prep the site for repairs, provided some recommendations for the repairs and did so for a very reasonable price with a great attitude-friendly, confidant and helpful. So glad we picked the right company to call! Thank you!!! We finished the repairs to the pipe and all is back working same day!

    We had a slow drain in the bathroom for years and it finally got to the point that the tub & sink were affected. We called a local plumber who got the details of the situation and recommended Able Power Rooter. They came right out the same day we called, assessed the situation and fixed it within 30 minutes!! The price was super reasonable. We have been slow drain free since July 3! Wish we had called sooner.100% recommend this company!

    Had a hard clogged drain I could not free up myself. One call, and one five minute service call later and we are good to go. Even with emergency callout pricing they were very reasonable! Will call again if I have more plumbing issues!

  • Review 10 (2024-08-30 - Rating: 5)

    These folks are the best! They are fair and honest and theyve come through for us on short notice so many times and always with friendly, knowledgeable service. I dont know who their competitors are and I never will because there is no other company Ill call.

    These guys saved my rear end twice when I had sewage backup into my basement due to clogs from roots infiltrating the drain pipe. Employees were great and rates were reasonable as well.

    Great company my daughter had flushed some toys down the toliet wanted to come the following day as they were busy, I mentioned being a 1 bathroom house and was here within 30 minutes. Appreciate the service.

  • Review 16 (2024-05-25 - Rating: 5)

    Picture this… memorial day weekend. I use the bathroom only to find out… no toilet paper. I venture into the basement only to find a big ol puddle of backed up water sewer water spreading out.In panic a call goes out. Who answers the call? Some gawd’ damned septic professionals.great service, friendly, and good price. He had an opportunity to make an extra buck on my panic but he talked me down from an unnecessary added service. Exemplary of a strong Maine business.Thank you so much.

  • Review 17 (2024-05-04 - Rating: 5)

    The technician’s that came responded quickly to my problem. They called me back within 10 minutes of my initial call. They were at my house within 20 minutes of the call. They resolved the problem in a fast and efficient manner. The price was very fair for what they had to endure. Highly recommend this company!

  • Review 18 (2024-12-13 - Rating: 5)

    They came immediately, did an excellent job, and were reasonably priced.

  • Review 21 (2023-07-27 - Rating: 5)

    We had 2 drains that had been clogged for years. Other plumbers I called werent interested in the job. Able was and sent a team out sooner than expected. Professional, friendly, fixed the issues quickly and thoroughly. I highly recommend them!

  • Review 22 (2024-01-14 - Rating: 5)

    I had flooding in my basement due to the unprecedented rainfall this winter finally exposing the blockage in my positive drainage system. This happened on Sunday morning (of course) and an acquaintance recommended Able Power. Well a call to them resulted in a response within an hour and a crew was there within 3 hours of my initial call. Drain cleared, basement back to normal. Wow! Real heroes work here. Six stars!

  • Review 23 (2024-02-03 - Rating: 5)

    Excellent and friendly service. Called on a Saturday because all my toilets and drains were unusable. ABLE was here within a few hours and cleared the blockage.

  • Review 24 (2024-11-29 - Rating: 5)

    If you have a clog just call this locally-owned business!1. They were the ONLY ones that returned my call and also showed up within 12 hours.2. The staff were professional, courteous, and incredibly skilled.3. They were saying that are getting into plumbing in the future if possible. So lets support a great local business not just any.4. I just paid my invoice and expected to pay WAY more than I did. VERY REASONABLE PRICES!5. They use Quickbooks so payment was also a breeze.I cant say enough good things about them. They are just simply amazing!

  • Review 25 (2023-03-13 - Rating: 5)

    I needed a plumber to come fix a clogged toilet. It was only in this moment that I discovered not all plumbers will help with clogged toilets. Any way these guys were great. they were super fast and got the job done and were on their way. super professional. funny and full of enthusiasm for their job. great men. my cat even took to one of them. great work gentleman. though I hope to never have to call you again, your number has been added to important household contacts. well done!

  • Review 26 (2023-08-08 - Rating: 5)

    Just wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU to Dylan & Jake for the great service in repairing a blocked French drain pipe. I could not believe that I called on Monday at 8:02 am and was told they would be out the same day. Around 3pm I recieved a call saying they were on the way. Within 15mins they had determined the issue and corrected it. Worth every penny!!!!

  • Review 27 (2023-12-03 - Rating: 5)

    I called Able on a Saturday for what I thought was a major clogged sink. It turned out to be a bigger issue being a bigger clog in the lines. Two technicians showed up in the time frame I was given. They diagnosed the problem quickly and fixed the clog in a short amount of time. They were extremely knowledgeable, professional and very reasonably priced. I will definitely use them again if needed. I highly recommend this company!

  • Review 28 (2024-01-12 - Rating: 5)

    We could not be happier with the service from Able!!! Chris and Jake were very knowledgeable, friendly and quick! I hope to not need them again😜 but if I do I will call right away!

  • Review 29 (2018-12-06 - Rating: 5)

    Im only leaving 5 stars because 10 stars isnt an option. No joke! We called Able Power Rooter for a severely clogged drain after being referred to them by our regular plumber when he wasnt going to be able to get to us for several more days. I received a call back from them LESS THAN 5 MINUTES AFTER LEAVING MY MESSAGE. They were able to come just a few hours later and literally, within minutes, had cleared the clog. Professional. Courteous. Pleasant. Excellent prices. Expedient service. Highly, highly recommend them! Will definitely use them again if necessary and will be referring them to friends and family. In a day and age of apathetic service-providers, they are truly a breath of fresh air!

  • Review 30 (2024-11-15 - Rating: 5)

    Fast Service , Very Knowledgeable and dedicated technicians to get the job done no matter the challenges

  • Review 31 (2024-10-09 - Rating: 5)

    Polite when I called in, and Dylan and Jake were polite and efficient in person. They were honest, too, and told me that I didnt need the work our home inspector had recommended. Thats not something everyone would do. Our bill was much less than I was expecting. Hopefully I wont need more work, but if I or anyone else I know does, Ill recommend them without hesitation.

  • Review 32 (2020-12-12 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing professionals, came for a same day emergency. Wore masks in my home. Did more work than expected an still got a great deal. Highly highly highly recommend. Riley was awesome an so was his coworker who unfortunately I did not get his name. Thanks to them I can use my system again.

  • Review 33 (2020-01-03 - Rating: 5)

    They are great. We called during a snowstorm with a backup sink and they came the very next morning early, took care of it in 30 minutes, charged a very reasonable fee, and are very pleasant to deal with. Great local business. Another plumber did not call me back for 3 days, but these guys always answer the phone right away and are very friendly .

  • Review 34 (2019-10-30 - Rating: 5)

    Fantastic service! A nasty mess of roots from nearby trees was blocking the inlet of my septic tank and making their way into the pipe. I was referred to Able Power Rooter and got a visit in less than 24 hours of calling. Dylan and Chris were friendly, professional and got this fixed quickly. Im happy with the job done and overall experience. I highly recommend Able Power Rooter to anyone.

  • Review 35 (2021-01-31 - Rating: 5)

    Thank you so much Chris and Logan for your professional work. We Had a problem with back up and when we called they came that day and charged less than anticipated. The work was done quickly and efficiently. Would highly recommend them to anyone!

  • Review 36 (2020-05-06 - Rating: 5)

    We called just before they closed at 5:00 pm for a bathroom sink/tub clog. They arrived promptly at 8:30 AM the next morning and within an hour they had cleared the lines. They were polite, professional, efficient or left no mess. Thank you for your great service Riley and Adam!! Highly recommend Able Power Rooter!!

  • Review 37 (2018-03-30 - Rating: 5)

    I called the office early on Friday morning with a blockage in our lines. The service guys, Dylan and Chris, did great job! They are very knowledgeable and friendly! They let us know what the problem was immediately! Thank you for getting the job done so quickly!

  • Review 38 (2022-07-18 - Rating: 5)

    Unbelievably fast! Less than an hour from call to completion of service. The 2 employees who came to the house explained how my bath tub had been blocked and coached me through how to avoid this happening again. Very friendly and prompt. I will be calling them again for sure.

  • Review 39 (2022-05-16 - Rating: 5)

    They were so prompt, came to the house in 15-20 minutes. Very professional and nice. As first-time homeowners, we didnt know what to do or what to make of it. I was able to ask questions and ask for recommendations on how to prevent the issue from happening again.

  • Review 40 (2020-10-03 - Rating: 5)

    On A Saturday morning We had a clogged sewer drain . Arrived within 20 min of my call. These guys were awesome. Very polite, friendly, courteous and knowledgeable.

  • Review 41 (2022-05-08 - Rating: 5)

    Nice guys, quick to call back. Our sewer was backing up in our basement so it was pretty emergent. They came out on a Sunday afternoon to our home within an hour of calling. Less expensive than I thought as well. I would recommend

  • Review 42 (2019-10-11 - Rating: 5)

    I dont do surveys and I dont do reviews, but I am so impressed with Able Rooter that I am compelled to write. We spent thousands of dollars trying to get a sewer line unclogged. We decided to try Able Rooter before having a new sewer installed. It was tough but they were very patient and got the job done. They brought their own towels and did not make a mess. The cost was only $400 and they saved us thousands of dollars.

  • Review 43 (2021-08-07 - Rating: 5)

    Thank you, Roland, Chris and Logan for a job well done. This team was friendly, knowledgeable and worked efficiently to correct the clogged drain(s). This was not the first time Able Power Rooter was called to solve a drain issue for us, though the first time was at a different address, we definitely knew who to call when a clog drain occurred here. I highly recommend Able Power Rooter for their reasonable pricing, prompt response and plumbing experience.

    I had an emergency with my water backing up into every sink and shower. On short notice he showed up and explained things as he went, very polite and well mannered man, and the price was reasonable compared to others who wanted to charge me $60 more an hour for after hours today. Will use these people until I die or they do lol .

    I was very pleased of the professionalism and work the two young men did at My home to unclog my pipes. They completed the work in a timely manner and very polite young men. Thank you Riley and Jack.

  • Review 61 (2023-09-08 - Rating: 5)

    Another excellent experience with Able. I just happened to look downstairs and wow the pipe was backed up again. This seems to be something that happens around every 3-4 years. I called at 10:45 and they were here around 11. They took about 25 to 30 minutes and were done. They washed the basement some which helps. I will do a thorough cleaning so no problems there. They gave us some advice and ways to prevent this. They were both so nice and friendly. The price was very fair luckily it wasnt too bad. They also drained and clean the roof drains a few years ago and that experience was great too. Keep up the great work guys.

    Water was backing up into our tub, and I wasnt able to clear the clog myself. I gave Able Power Rooter a call after hours the same night. The owner returned my call the next morning before they opened to schedule a time for his techs to come out. They both arrived on time, quickly identified the problem, and solved it within an hour. I highly recommend Able Power Rooter. Their pricing is reasonable and their experience with plumbing issues is priceless!

    I had what I thought was a sewer problem. They did a thorough intake over the phone and didnt think it sounded sewer related but were there in a couple of hours to check it out and make sure. Excellent customer service! I hope I never have a need but if I do they would be my first call.

  • Review 76 (2022-10-30 - Rating: 5)

    It’s not often that the lowest cost business is also the best service, but this was it. We had a completely blocked perimeter drain that caused a flood in our basement. Chris and Dylan came out on a Saturday, quickly and efficiently fixed our problem, and Able Power Rooter also beat competitors quoted prices by a lot! Chris and Dylan were very friendly and pleasant to talk to, and also gave suggestions for preventive measures going forward. I highly recommend this company.
