I had a clog in the kitchen drain line which I isolated to an old 3" pipe. I asked Chen to snake the pipe to break the clog. After accommodating the re-schedule to clear the clog, Tim arrived and insisted to replace the drain pipe, then snake it and replace the perfectly good disposal. $3800. When I asked him to just snake the pipe to clear it, he refused and said I should do it myself or find another plumber. Ridiculous. The next day I DID clear it myself with water pressure and tightened the seal on the disposal. Now all is fine. Tim didn't want to do a simple job for a lower price. This is the second time he has recommended much more expensive work. Last time it was $2500 for digging up pipes when a snake clean out worked fine for $500. I won't use him again.
