I waited a bit over a month to write this review as to make sure that my drain is truly clog free. I’m so happy to report that it still is!!! I had a clog in my main line that two other companies had come out to do a cheap snake to unblock. Both tried to sell me $800-$1200 hydroflush services. Within days of their snaking, the problem came back. I was about to give up and pay the huge fee, but luckily I found Eddys contact. He spoke with me on the phone for over 30 minutes about what he thought was the issue and then told me up front a very reasonable fee and the possibilities for what we may need to do according to what he encountered. He then came and thoroughly snaked the drain, which in the end was all that was needed. And he kindly also adjusted my toilet so that it flushed more water to help avoid this problem in the future. I’m soooooooo grateful for Eddy and the hundreds he saved me. In addition to the stress taken off. Thanks, Eddy! You rule!

★★★★★ I highly recommend Eddy at Universal Drain Cleaners! I was referred to him by the company that did my sewer inspection, and they told me, “If anyone can fix this, Eddy can.” They were absolutely right! I had a serious and complicated plumbing problem, and Eddy responded quickly and was committed to figuring it out and getting everything done correctly. When another issue came up, he came back and followed through until everything was 100% working properly. He also provided a helpful written summary of some additional plumbing-related items I should follow up on regarding my water circulation. Eddy’s years of experience serving the Scottsdale/Phoenix area really show. He was professional, knowledgeable, persistent, and genuinely committed to solving the problem. I’m very grateful for his work and would absolutely recommend him!

I had a great experience working with Eddy. He was wonderful to work with—very straightforward, got the job done exactly as promised, and communicated clearly throughout. He also took the time to go over the details once he finished cleaning out our drains. Highly recommend!

Very thankful to find Eddy. He cleared our kitchen sink clog within 20 minutes at a reasonable price. Our first technician recommended some solution which involved heavy equipment and high cost. Glad we took a 2 nd opinion with Eddy. Highly recommend his expertise.

I have an old home in Arcadia with an unusual and difficult HVAC condensation drain clog. The drain is located deep under a low platform, and is in the middle of the house. The platform is occupied by air handler equipment and is only a few inches high. Eddy, owner of Universal Drain was able to find a way to get to the drain and clear the clog without expensive reconstruction or removing the heavy installed equipment from the platform. Plus his prices are very reasonable. He is honest, inexpensive, and very skilled.

Here you go — just tap and hold to copy: Eddie from Ultimate Drain came out to fix a clogged tub in our new house. During the job, his snake accidentally broke through an unusual plastic accordion style pipe fitting, something even he said he'd never encountered before. What impressed us most was what happened next. Eddie took full ownership, arranged for two other plumbers to come repair it, and covered the cost himself without hesitation. He called multiple times afterward just to make sure everything was fixed correctly and that we were satisfied. It's rare to find someone who handles an unexpected mishap with that much integrity and follow through. Highly recommend Eddie and Ultimate Drain for their honesty and genuine care for their customers.

Amazing! Honest plumbers do exist!!! Highly recommend!! Eddy was fast to respond and come help us! When he arrived he did a quick test and somehow the clog had cleared - he told us this honestly! Other plumbers would have just gone in and charged without being honest. Not Eddy! We will call him again if we have any other plumbing issues!!! He even stayed for a bit to give us some helpful tips!

Eddy with Universal Drain is AMAZING! Our bathroom sink was not draining. Another plumber told us our line had collapsed (meaning we were probably looking at $5,000 worth of work). Eddy came out to give a 2nd opinion and he fixed the problem is 20 minutes. He took the time to educate me about my old home and how to maintain the sewer system moving forward. Highly recommend.

One of the drains in our yard had become clogged with leaves and debris, causing water to collect near the landscaping during storms. The drainage company cleared the blockage, flushed the line, and checked the surrounding system for additional buildup. The service took about two hours. Compared to before, rainwater drains much more efficiently and the affected area dries significantly faster afterward. We appreciated that the technician explained how regular maintenance helps prevent larger drainage issues from developing later. It’s a practical service that improved both drainage performance and yard condition immediately.

I have an older 1960's home that has the old septic system abated in 1998 and 4" ABS installed to code and then inspected by City of Phoenix before the 120'+ sewer yardline to the city street was backfilled. Fast forward almost 30 years later I've been living in the home with my family and letting friends use the home for 14 years as we upgraded tubs, sinks, HVAC, roof, and even the yardline cleanouts out front where additionally added by a local professional plumber by code to the City to resolve a bellied line there. Universal Drain cleaned a laundry run for my tenant recently that is also used by the kitchen sink down stream using the same vent and metal 2" pipe under the homes slab. The small maybe 5' section of 3" cast iron from the original system is where it connects to and the that connects to the 4" ABS 120'+ yardline. I had the entire mainline HydroJetted a few months before universal drain came out. I had the laundry wash box from 1960 removed and upgraded to code by a local licensed plumber but it still continues to backup and overflow on my tenant after the $1500 repair they made. They even said they cleared the line but said they would recommend running a new pipe around the home at an additional cost. Needless to say universal drain ran the line to clear sludge and it's never operated so well until just now about a year later my tenants are putting Fat Oil and Grease making FATBERGS in the mainline causing consistent blockages and it again requires a hydrojet. I'd strongly recommend universal drain for their honest strong work and help with older homes and clogs.

Total GODSEND!! Eddy was straightforward, did the job exactly as he said he would, and was kind and explained things clearly. 1. He saved us nearly 2k on a drainage problem. 2. This guy knows his stuff. Probably who corporations have on speed-dial when they need a special drainage assessment. 3. He explained our drainage problem in clear and simple terms that we could all understand and get behind. Doesn't sugarcoat or make stuff up. Thanks again

THIS GUY! Amazing! We own a 1940s home with original pipes. Other companies fear mongered us into ALMOST spending thousands of dollars to hydro-jet clogged pipes due to low-flow toilets. He solved the issue in minutes for an extremely good price while educating us on ongoing prevention for all of our lines! Do not buy into the messaging of others; just save your sanity and call him!

If you live in Arcadia Lite, I have a great recommendation for you.. actually if you live anywhere in a house with drains, I would recommend Eddy, the cute guy that is pictured here. Our houses were built for better water flow, not this restricted new stuff that we have to install. Universal drain cleaners will find the clog, un clog it, and advise you how to keep the 1958 technology running smooth!!! I was so impressed with Eddy's talent and knowledge. It was SO NICE to not have a plumber not really fix something and then go right in for the up sell and scare you into replacing your whole system!! I'm so blessed to have found him. Don't wait, call Eddy at Universal Drain Cleaners right now! You won't find anyone better!

I want to share my experience with Universal Drain Cleaners and the owner, Eddy Horvath, whose honesty and expertise saved me from making a $10,000 mistake with another plumbing company. A few weeks ago, our master bathroom flooded late at night, so we called a well-known plumbing company advertised on TV. They ran a camera through our drains and claimed the pipes had partially collapsed near the street. They said the only solution was to excavate my entire front yard and replace the piping—for $10,000. They pressured me to sign immediately, making it sound like an urgent emergency. Before making such a huge decision, I called Eddy Horvath from Universal Drain Cleaners. I’ve known of Eddy for over 25 years through my stepdad, who was a plumber for over four decades. My stepdad always spoke highly of Eddy’s honesty, skill, and reliability. When Eddy came out, he ran his equipment through the pipes with no issue at all. His tool went all the way out into the middle of the street, clearing out debris along the way. He found no collapsed pipes, no roots, and confirmed everything was in working order. The water backup we saw weeks earlier had cleared, and the drains were fine. This confirmed my suspicion—the other company was misleading and trying to take advantage of a stressful situation to push unnecessary, costly work. I am incredibly grateful for Eddy’s decades of experience, professionalism, and integrity. He not only solved the problem but also saved me $10,000 and a torn-up front yard. If you need a trustworthy plumber with fair prices, I can’t recommend Eddy and Universal Drain Cleaners enough. Call him first—you won’t be disappointed.
