What reviewers praise
themeCounts.fast_response=1 but same-day dispatch on a Friday confirmed with plumber calling ahead when en route; crew cleared a drain backup within 1 hour of arrival using camera scope
2 cited reviews
“I called on a Friday morning complaining of a backed up kitchen sink. The dispatcher was friendly and polite, putting me briefly on hold while she determined if a plumber had time in his schedule to visit the same day. Michael called ahead to let me know when he was en route. He quickly diagnosed the situation and inspired me with confidence that he could remedy the problem. He kept my anxiety low by describing everything he was doing and permitting me to observe the camera scope.”
“Great overall experience. We were fighting a floor drain back up for weeks. Trying to fix our self until I decided to try Nieman plumbing for the first time. Called in the AM the crew showed up 2 hours later and had it cleared in an hour. High tech equipment and a professional team.”

Positive
“We called to clear out our main line which recently had a small backup. Chris is who we dealt with. He explained the situation well and took extra steps that a previous plumber did not. I appreciated the info and felt good about what was done. I did feel it was a little pricey, but you get what you pay for.”
