Roto-Rooter Plumber John Armour arrived on time, and completed all the requested work in an efficient manner. He was pleasant and professional. He explained everything he was going to do ... and provided an estimate before starting the work. Because he was able to complete the work in less than the "book" time, he was able to deduct a significant amount from the total due. We will call Roto-Rooter again in the future, and if John Armour is available we will be happy to see him. If not, then we would hope to have our service done by some one as professional as John.
