About us

Guin Service began in 1958 as a group of specialized mechanics to compliment Guin Company s mechanical contracting company. W.C. (Bill) Guin knew that to have a successful contracting company he must have top mechanics to start-up and service contract jobs. Over the years the contracting company grew to one of Alabama's largest by doing quality work and providing exceptional customer service. In the mid 90 s as the top management of the company began to retire, the decision was made to discontinue the mechanical contracting division. Because of the loyalty of the employees of the service department and their many customers, the service company became an independent operation. Through the leadership of Ricky Lockhart, Manager; Keith Rotenberry, Assistant Manager; and Peggy Rice, Office Manager, Guin Service Company has continued to thrive. Associates Marvin Watson, Richard McDonald, Dewayne Todd, Tommy Thrasher, Jay Guin, Gary Rice, and their teams, have continued the legacy of friendly customer service. Each associate is highly qualified with 20+ years experience. As everyone knows, to have a successful business you must have the best people and Guin Service LLC has the best. Guin Service LLC has been in business since 1958 and strives everyday to make sure that customer satisfaction is guaranteed. Guin Service LLC is also a Certified Service and sales dealer for Generac Generators. Call and ask to speak to our expert Barry Nelms, and he will be happy to tell you all you need to know about the #1 selling Automatic Standby Generator in the country. W.C. (Bill) Guin, is retired but remains available for backup to the team. He is very proud of the continued success Guin Service LLC and has made plans for the operation to continue for many years to come. Joseph Braswell, a fourth generation member of the Guin Service family, started working with the company Jan. 2011 as the Director of Marketing and Customer Service. It is Joseph's goal to continue to build upon the reputation of Guin Service LLC, through community involvement and an unwavering approach to 100% customer satisfaction.

Thank you for your review. I am glad to hear that you were happy with the plumbing work that Richard and Blake helped you with this summer, but I am concerned with the rank you gave us on price. Like everything else, the price of quality plumbing parts and work has gone up. That being said, we always want our customers to understand how we come up with our prices, and want to make sure they are competitive in our marketplace. If you would like to discuss this issue, or have any other questions or concerns please do not hesitate to call and speak to one of our managers. We appreciate your business, and look forward to working with you again in the future.

Thank you for your review; this is a perfect example of why we love Angie's List. It is reviews like yours that let us know the things we need to work on. It is our policy to give a price to our customers before we perform any work. It is also our policy, that whenever a customer requests, that we provide our prices in writing. Guin Service operates on flat rate pricing, and we continuously monitor our prices to make sure they are fair, and that our service men are consistent with the way they price their work. I hate to hear that our service man did not do a good job of explaining how we price our work. I will discuss this problem with him, and I assure you, you will not feel this way in the future. Please feel free to call me or our service manager anytime; we would be glad to discuss this issue further. Our goal is to make sure that you continue to feel comfortable letting Guin Service take care of all of your heating, air and plumbing needs. Thank you, Joseph

Description of Work: Unstopped upstairs tub drain and repaired trap. Cleaned sink drain upstairs. |Installed lavatory faucet in downstairs bathroom. Guin provided prompt, honest,courteous and friendly service. They also cleaned up before leaving. |I had received a service call from a different company about my stoppage problem and claimed I needed a more expensive repair job.I was charged $75.00, the repairman left nicks in my tub from the cable he used, stepped in my tub with his grimy shoes on ( it had been a rainy day), ran water in the tub afterwards which turned into a dirty mess, and finally said I needed a more expensive service repair. When I asked if he was going to clean up, he said he didn't have any way to do so. I dipped about three- fourths of a mop bucket of dirty water out of the tub, and finally cleared the remaining dirt out and then saw the nicks around the tub drain. This company was sent from American Home Shield Service Center where I have had a contract for years so I will be terminating my contract at the end of the service period. However, my experience with a professional company like Guin restored my impression of plumbers.

Thank you for your comments. I hope that your pressure relief valve is back in working order. When that valve malfunctions it can cause safety issues and or a great big mess. It is never a bad idea to have a technician check the pressure in your home, along will all safety valves, every year or so. Thanks again for your comments; we truly appreciate your business. Sincerely, Joseph
