This is a strong recommendation for the plumbing services of Aarcher Contracting Corporation. I employed them in March, 2014 when my sewer clogged. When the standard snaking of the line didn't clear it, Clay Brown (the president of the company) recommended a big national company with heavier equipment. That company came out, broke off their cable in the line, and told me it would cost $1400 to install a clean-out to remove it, (and that wouldn't cover opening the sewer line afterwards). When I balked at that, they left me with the cable still in my line.
Clay and his crew were good enough to come back and install the clean-out, remove the broken cable, and clear the line so I had a working sewer, all for about half what the big company wanted just for the clean-out. But it doesn't end there…
After seeing a video of the cleaned out sewer line, Clay pointed out that there could be a collapse starting due to roots invading where the pipe met the county main pipe. He wrote an excellent letter on my behalf to the Pima County Waste Water Department, documenting that since the problem was at the junction, the necessary repairs were their responsibility. After seeing the letter, the county immediately agreed to repair that problem at no cost to me, saving me thousands of dollars in repair bills.
The Aarcher crew stuck with me through large and small difficulties, did a great job at a great price, and cleaned up another company's mess. They were honest, friendly, and professional, and saved me a small fortune over what the total cost could have been, even though it meant losing the work they convinced the county to do for free! I give them my highest recommendation, and will definitely call them again if I have any future plumbing problems. It feels good to support a local licensed contractor rather than a big national corporation, especially when it saves money.
