- Dean Lucas3.0Services are great and so was the work. I got shown the quote and thought ok well it will probably take awhile. Took the guy 20mins and maybe $30 in parts and the quote was for $550. To install two sinks Never knew when I saw the quote home much they would be making on this job. If I would have went with a local place would have been half the cost. So when you see the quote ask how long it will take and if it's under an hour go local.September 2026Google

- Jarlaxle1.0I've called on Mr Rooter twice. The first time was to get a quote on a shower/tub remodel. As many people are aware - Bath Fitter is expensive, well Mr Rooter quoted $2,000 more than Bath Fitter. The second time was this past Thursday. I needed a plumber to come out and fix my bathroom sink. They told me no problem, does tomorrow work? Friday afternoon from 2-4. Excellent. Friday morning comes and they have to reschedule because a family emergency has taken the plumber out of the city. They reschedule for Sunday. All good, things happen I understand, no worries. What angers me to no end is that I have been waiting around all day today (Sunday) for this plumber. No call from Mr Rooter, nothing. So I call in to Mr Rooter. They have to get in contact with the plumber and will call me right back. Thirty minutes later I get a call explaining to me that the plumber ISN'T EVEN BACK IN THE CITY YET and can they reschedule tomorrow? No, absolutely not. I am done with Mr. Rooter. I should not have had to call in to find out that your plumber didn't even report to work today. That's something you should have called me about far earlier in the day to try and reschedule and retain my business. Never again.September 2026Google
- James Flanagan5.0Chris was amazing. Answered the phone after 10pm when everyone else went to answer machine. Took time to get to the root of the problem and help put us a ease so that we didnt worry overnight Knowledgeable and everything you want in a tradesman. Offered us a quick no nonsense replacement and had everything with him to do the job there and then when he came out the next morning 10 ot of 10 and would highly recommend.September 2026Google

About Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Halifax
Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Halifax has the largest review base in this ranking, with 1,125 Google reviews at a 4.7 average, read September 24, 2026. It is a Canadian owned and operated franchise of Mr. Rooter, part of the Neighbourly group of home service brands, and the office is at 1617 Sackville Drive in Middle Sackville.
The service list fits the Halifax area well. Beyond general plumbing and drain and sewer cleaning, it covers septic systems and well pumps, which many homes outside the urban core depend on, along with water heaters, water filters and softeners, irrigation, garburators, boiler and radiator repair, grease traps and bathroom and kitchen remodels. Mr. Rooter says it answers phones 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and Google lists it as open 24 hours. The company guarantees labour and parts, but the website does not give warranty length, owner names or certification numbers.
Chris comes up again and again in the reviews. James said Chris answered the phone after 10pm when everyone else went to voicemail, calmed them down so they did not worry overnight, and came back the next morning with everything needed for the replacement. Cristina called Chris H. honest and said a sink repair took under an hour at a reasonable price. Mark, on his fourth job with the company, said the quote came before the work and the job finished early. Paul gave four stars and praised Chris's communication but thought the price for replacing old tap cartridges was a little high.
Mr. Rooter suits a Halifax area homeowner with a backed-up drain, a septic or well pump problem, or an emergency late at night. It suits less well someone looking for the lowest price on a small repair. Ask for a written quote before work starts, confirm the plumber's Nova Scotia certificate of qualification, and check who pulls the HRM plumbing permit.
