plumbing, water heater repair

This is the worse service I have ever received being a prime member of any company. 1st issue of concern is when the technician, Brandon Moore, came out to inspect my water tank and stated that the issue was due to my water tank being 2006 (50Gal-Rheem82v52-2) and was past it's prime. The technician (I call him that with the most sarcastic sound as possible) stated that my price, as a prime member, for a water tank was $1705 for 8year and $2142 for a 12 year. I've since priced the water tanks and could have gotten a much but good quality for $399. Brandon stated that as a prime member he quoted me the cheapest rate possible. He didn't include any time of installation fee or parts for the water heater but the full amount needed. 2nd issue of concern was that as a prime member, I am allotted 1 free tune up on electrical and plumbing yearly. I requested Brandon Moore perform a tune up on my water tank to see if it would fix the issue but was discouraged because he stated he would have to drain the water tank (getting rid of all calcium deposits) as well as replace the electrical panel and due to the age of my water tank a tune up would have no effect on my water tank producing hot water. Brandon Moore advised that I should get another water tank. I contacted my brother, who is neither a plumber nor an electrician, to advise that I still did not have hot water after the technicians left. My brother inspected my hot water tank and advised that the electrical panel looks like it went out. I went to Home Depot and paid $28.98 for at Rheems Electric WH repair kit (4500W/24OV+Thermo). My brother replaced the electrical panel and once he flips the fuse at my fuse box, my tank immediately started to heat up. 3rd issue of concern is when I contacted the company the next day to inquire about a receipt for my credit card payment; I was advised that they do not send receipts until the invoice is paid in full. I instructed Taylor, the rep I spoke with that I paid the invoice in full with a credit card and not a debit card before the technicians left therefore I needed my payment confirmation receipt. I verified my email address and waited for my receipt. My work order and invoice was processed 11/18/2020 but as of today 11/22/2020, I've yet to get a receipt or any email advising of the order from 11/18/2020. I have since verified that the credit card payment processed successfully. I'm am very upset, frustrated and sad that I was taken advantage of and lied to by this company who I was advised was reputable. The technician verified that I live alone therefore he knew that there was not a male around that could vouch for the misinformation I was given. I've paid for my plan as well as paid for service that I DID NOT RECEIVE. The technician knew that I didn't have hot water when he left my home and fully thought I would call them the next day to pay for a brand new water tank. He neither wanted to help me nor do I feel he cared that I was both paying for and quoted prices he KNEW were way more than the standard rates. I was also advised that my water was showing a leak so they did fix my commode. The price for changing the tube coming out the wall you wonder, well that cost me $261. I was advised that I would have a rebuilt commode, but all they did was change the tubes. Yes, I agree.... Yikes. Would I recommend this company, NO I WILL NOT!! As an African American female, I feel that this company was not looking out for my best interest. If you are a single female, don’t use this company because they will likely take advantage of you.

I recently had someone plumbing issues and called On-Time Service. Their Google reviews were good and they were able to come out sooner than anyone else. BIG MISTAKE. I needed my water pressure regulator replaced. The original quote was $1200!!! I told the technician there was no way I could afford that. He immediately dropped the price down to around $800. Not knowing any better and having no knowledge about cost of parts I agreed to pay it. I had an uneasy feeling about it after and contacted a local plumber for a quote. He quoted me at around $300. I have also spoken to several other people who have recently had their regulators replaced and they all paid around $300 as well. This company will completely screw you if you don’t know any better. Stay away!!

Just wanted everyone to know - they charge you a $79 "dispatch fee" just to come out - and my home is 5 minutes from their office. That is NOT applied as a credit to any work you have done. I wouldn't mind paying it if they came out and I did not use them for the repair - I understand they don't want people to waste their time. However, if I do hire them, then that fee should be waived or credited toward the work - that is what most legitimate companies do. Would recommend hiring someone else.

Response from Ontime Service - Electrical, Heating & Cooling, & Plumbing
Thank you for your feedback. Customer Service is very important to us. I just wanted to make sure you understand our dispatch fee is what covers the visual inspection and as many estimates as you would like along with straight forward pricing before any work is started, and if you prefer to have the work done a different day, there is no additional service fee to come back and do any work that's already been quoted. We hope you were able to find someone that met your needs, if not we would still love to take care of the work for you. Please let us know if we can be of any assistance. Thank you, have a blessed day!

I was extremely pleased with Ontime Service. I received an advance email letting me know who would be coming to my home, with a picture I believe, and Sam introduced himself upon arrival. I liked that I could schedule an exact time for service and Sam was on time. They have a fixed pricing structure, so you pay for service, not time. Sam was very thorough and careful to protect his work area, and even helped me move my table back in place, which was thoughtful. I would definitely use Ontime Service again for my electrical or plumbing needs.

The other comment I will make is that they use a 4 hour "window" for their arrival and when it's 10 to 2 that pretty much blows your whole day!!
Description of Work: The staff is very professional & knowledgeable. However, in my opinion, way too expensive. Usually you don't have to pay for a house call if you end up using & 0paying for the service but the $79 was ON TOP of the very enormous service charge. Also, what they repaired kept tripping & they had to return 3 more times to get it right! (no charge)

WONDERFUL, PROFESSIONAL AND FANTASTIC!!!
Description of Work: I used Ontime Service Electrical & Plumbing on 2 different occasions. The first time was for an electrical problem. ( light bulb fused and I was unable to unscrew and separate the fixture from the metal covering.) The electrician, Sam, after some difficulty finally was able to separate the pieces and then replaced the fused bulb. He did a great job. I mentioned to Sam that one of my toilets recently had been acting up: -- that I hear the toilet partially self flushing and seeing water dripping down the toilet bowl. Sam stated that his company provided plumbing services. He made a call to his office after I requested for assistance. The next day, 2 plumbers showed up: Tim Williams and John Fullerton. They both were very friendly, pleasant and professional at their job. They replaced my flapper, fill valve and supply line. They took the time to find the correct size and fit for the flapper. Now the toilet flushes well and there is no leakage. They cleaned after the repair and did not leave a mess. Tim also checked my water pressure for the house. The gauge showed a high level. Tim stated that I needed to have the pressure corrected. He stated that my current pressure reducing valve (PRV) is over 15 yrs and needed to be replaced. We negotiated and finally agreed to a reasonable price. The PRV was replaced and water pressure re-tested. The gauge showed a normal water pressure. I am very happy and satisfied with the work done. Tim and John both did a wonderful job!! I will definitely use Ontime Service again. I will also recommend this company to my friends. I

He arrived timely and was very professional. The issue was never completely identified but he checked all outlets in the master bedroom and made some adjustments as necessary. The breaker has not gone out since his visit. The cost was a little higher than I thought, but the promptness and professionalism was worth it for this visit.
Description of Work: The circuit breaker was continually going out in the master bedroom so we wanted someone to come and check the circuit box. We used Angie's List to find an electrician and Ontime was highly reviewed so we contacted them. They responded within the day and the technician came out in less than 2 days.
