Description of Work: The last service was to install a toilet, test shower drain, attach sink to wall & put hot & cold faucets back on existing sink, provide & install split escutcheon on hot, cold, & waste pipes. Check water pressure. ($490.) Service before that one was to excavate & locate leak on main water line, replaced with copper, labor & parts were $1,500. Before that they removed an existing garbage disposal with new Insinkerator, 3/4 HP. The charge was $560. Some of the work seemed a little expensive, but I did not get any other bids to compare.

Estimate was clear and accurate. Service was scheduled for the date and time I requested. Workers arrived on time, explained the newly discovered issues clearly and quoted accurately for the needed work. They worked diligently and finished in a few hours, as expected.

It took over a week between initial visit and finishing the job, with 2 extended days of work, and 3 trips.
Description of Work: Lateral line was blocked. It was almost impossible to use an auger or camera, as the original installation of the clean out was installed incorrectly back in the 1970s. So trenching needed to be done, and new connections installed.

I think that is very important part of choosing a plumber. The service and timeliness in my mind is one of the things to look for when choosing a plumber. Waiting around 2-3 days is not going to work. After he came, he gave an estimate that was reasonable to both change the plumbing joints (which were bad) and also the wood repair that it had caused from the multiple days that it had been leaking. It was good to know they do this because one of the other plumbers refused to do any wood repairs. After fixing the issue in a few hours the next day, he cleaned up and left the sink as good as new. Thanks Mallard Plumbing for a job well done!
Description of Work: The services offered by Rob and his team were excellent, they came over to my home for a plumbing leak under the sink in my rental home. It looked like the plumbing joint was coming apart and the water was beginning to fill up my bucket rather quickly. This was the first time I had a leak anywhere in the home so it was a a surprise to me. As with any plumbing issues, i turned off the water and called 3 plumbers asap from yelp/angies. Mallard was the first to call me back and first to come out.

Excellent to work with. Responsive, easy to set date for estimate, personal and easy to work with, did a great job and left everything clean and tidy. Appearance of work even better than expected. No extra charges, etc. Prompt. Liked both the boss and the workmen. Will go to them in the future for all plumbing needs.

I think the work went well and I felt the work was well done. My only reservation was that the owner (I don't recall his name at this point) didn't discuss some possible options with me, such as flow rate on the aerator--that sort of thing. I would have preferred a step up in flow rate because of how long it takes to get hot water. Also, I felt that the cost was on the high side. However, I would say that the owner was highly capable and honest. In talking with the owner, I elicited that he was a Princeton graduate with a Ph.D. in history from the University of California, Berkeley. It might be worth a few extra bucks to have your plumbing done by a Ph.D. from Cal. However, his employees may not have equivalent academic qualifications.
Description of Work: I had experience only with the owner of Mallard Plumbing who did the work for me personally. My understanding is that he has other plumbers who work for him and I cannot speak for them. The work involved modifying a toilet to take care of flushing problems and replacing a bathroom sink fixture and associated under-sink plumbing. I don't recall the exact date of service or the exact charges. I am pretty sure that the service occurred in the latter part of 2010.

Rob came over and gave us a free estimate (unlike most of the plumbers on this List who wanted $100 just to take a look). He was on time and flexible and quick with scheduling the job. The plumber and his helper showed up on time and did the work in a day (we were sure was needing to go into the second day). The tree trunk must have been a big headache but they got it out. Rob came mid-morning to check in on their work. The guys laid down a tarp down so that our patio stones would be protected, did the job and cleaned up well. They were polite, hard-working guys. We are a 5-unit housing coop and would use Mallard again in a heartbeat.
Description of Work: Replaced section of house sewer serving 2 toilets, 2 basins, 2 tubs. Excavated and backfilled for sewer and remove tree trunk and roots. Installed relief valve in sewer clean-out.Tested new piping for leakage.

The man who owns the company seems very smart and when you tell him what you need done he gives you all of the options and the pros and cons of every one. They did a great job and we will use them in future.
Description of Work: They installed a dishwasher, new copper service to the street, a sump pump, and all of the other plumbing needs we have had due to moving into a new house.
