Timothy Halfman
I recently had the pleasure of working with Zoom Drain - Cold Stream and couldn’t be more satisfied with the service. From the initial call to the completion of the job, the team was professional, punctual, and incredibly knowledgeable. I had a leaking pipe that needed urgent attention, and they were able to schedule a same-day appointment. The plumber arrived on time, explained the issue clearly, and provided a fair and transparent estimate before beginning any work. The repair was completed efficiently, and everything has been working perfectly since. What stood out the most was their respect for my home — they wore protective covers on their shoes, cleaned up after the job, and made sure I was completely satisfied before leaving. It’s rare to find a company that combines skill, integrity, and excellent customer service so seamlessly. Highly recommend Zoom Drain - Cold Stream to anyone in need of reliable, honest, and high-quality plumbing services.
Ross David
Wow, I can’t stress how reliable and quick Zoom Drain fixed our clog! We were living with a slow drain in our sink for weeks until I had enough and called Zoom Drain. They were professional and very helpful! I mentioned the tub was doing something similar while they were at our house, and they fixed that too! We even signed up for their routine maintenance plan. I’m very excited to not have to worry about clogged drains again!!
Arianna Morris
I had a deep clog in my kitchen sink that caused water to back up into the dishwasher—total mess. I called Zoom Drain of Birmingham around 9 AM, and they had a tech at my house by lunchtime. He used a camera to show me exactly where the clog was, cleared it out fast, and cleaned everything up like nothing ever happened. Super professional, no pressure, and everything’s been working perfectly since. Highly recommend!
Ursa Logistica

I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate Mr. MarDarius. He was extremely professional, and didn’t get discouraged as he tried many different ways to dislodge the basketball from the storm drain until he was successful. Persistence pays off, and Mr. MarDarius was fantastic. We truly appreciate his service and the company’s ability to respond so fast. Thank you.
