I called on a Saturday and told the company it was not an emergency so Monday or Tuesday the following week would be fine. Less than an hour later the company called back advised they could come out later in the afternoon and there would be no additional charge for Saturday service. They also advised the plumber would call an hour before coming to my home. The plumber did call before he came out and put covers on his boots to walk through my home. He assessed the problems, gave me a verbal price quote and repaired both problems in about an hour. The plumber was courteous and professional. I would definately hire this company again.
Description of Work: Repaired two leaks - one at the faucet to the main water shut off and another one in the rear water shut off.

I was very satisfied with the service I received today from Armstrong Plumbing. This is the first time I used them. Customer Service was great when I called. Selected them because of the great reviews they have. I called yesterday for an appt. asking for today (Friday). He was here promptly in time chosen. He found where the toilet was leaking by the bolts on the tank, & fixed it. I also saved $20. with coupon for new customers, which was nice. If I need any plumbing service in future, they will have my business. Thanks, Armstrong Plumbing.
Description of Work: The toilet was leaking water, but not sure where it was coming from. After it was checked, he saw It was coming from around the bolts holding the tank to toilet. He repaired this, and seems to be fine now.

I called on Thursday for an appointment, and received an appt. on Friday between 10-12. Employee called me 1/2 hour before appointment, allowing me to drive home for appt. George was exactly on time. He wore booties to protect my floor when working. He quickly dismantled the top of the faucet, and determined a part was missing. He went out to his van a few times for the appropriate parts and tools, but had everything. Once he fixed that, he quickly worked on moving the faucet over and repositioning it. His work was quick and he was courteous. The only thing which bothered me was that he kept saying that whoever had worked on the faucet before "wasn't a plumber, was he?" I explained that two friends had worked on the faucet over the past year and were able to temporarily fix the dripping, and obtained parts and advice from Emigh Hardware's master plumber. Plumbers I'm certain are aware that folks often try to fix things without professional help.
Description of Work: My kitchen sink faucent, which had been dripping for months, had moved over, leaving a gap between sinktop and faucet, and water was leaking through the gap down under my sink, and onto my floor. The plumber fixed the faucet,eliminating the drip completely. Then he worked to move the faucet back in place to remove the gap, and even straightened the faucet out so the handle would be out front rather than to the side as it had been.

After calling Armstrong at 8 AM, I was surprised that they were able to get someone to my house within 2 hours. Terry was very courteous and capable. I appreciated that he took the extra time to make sure the pipes were unclogged by running several tests. I also appreciated that he reminded me of my Angie's List coupon.

When all the plumbing fixtures were in, Jacob came out to the house. He installed the ISE steaming hot water dispenser, the water filter, and the new valve for my Grohe shower controller. I decided to go with an A. O. Smith gas tankless water heater with an exterior installation. My current water heater (26 years old) was in a closet in the hallway. For a job of this size, Jacob needed some assistance and Justin came out to work with him. They had to run new water lines under the house and a new gas line. At the end of the installation process, electrician David Wilson came out to hook up electricity to the unit. I can't say enough good things about the work that was done and I was particularly impressed with Jacob. About a week later Jacob came back out and installed a new gas valve for an old wall heater in my back hallway. I would not hesitate at all to contact Armstrong Plumbing for any future plumbing needs and to recommend them to friends and family.
Description of Work: When I called Armstrong Plumbing I had several small issues to be taken care of and I wanted a new water heater. Milton came out within a day or so and took care of the most immediate needs...a leak under the kitchen sink and fixed dripping water from the hot water valve in the bathroom. At that time I mentioned that I wanted to put in an instant hot water dispenser at the kitchen sink, a new under sink water filter, a shower valve, and a new hot water heater. I had been debating between a regular tank water heater and a tankless outside installation water heater. Within a couple a days I received an email quote for all of the items. I made a decision on the items I wanted and called to let them know. An order was placed for my items and a date was scheduled to install them.

This company impressed me from the moment I called and spoke to their customer service rep/dispatcher. The technician assigned to my job was AMAZING! Jacob was very professional and very thorough - most importantly a very good communicator. I want to know what is going on for lots of reasons. I want to know that my property and it's substructure are in perfect working order. As a good neighbor, I want to be sure that nothing happening on my property is going to impede my neighbors enjoyment of their property. Jacob was most willing to show me what was going at the various different stages of work. My property has two flush out valves - one by the house (original) and one 106 feet downhill near the bottom of the yard which was installed about 20 years ago. Both flush outs were clogged. The newer flush out was the problem as roots had grown into the area around joint of the flush out and pipe. The clog was very difficult to exorcise. It proved to be quite challenging. Jacob never waivered, didn't take breaks, didn't stop until he solved the problem and his work was done. Seriously, impressive. I should know. I have had numerous and varying companies out to my house to do work and only a couple were this professional. My property is large and a hill. As the process progressed sewage ran down my driveway and into the street. Jacob immediately called the main office and someone came out with the cleaning agents and "stink stoppers" (sorry can't remember the name of the product). The assistant immediately addressed the "stink" and "mess" issues. Everything was cleaned up and smelling sweet before Jacob left. One service I did ask for and found most intrtiguing was the camera. I paid the additional fee to have a camera go through the pipes to see if all the problems were solved and if there were any problems on the horizon. Pretty cool technology and for me well worth the cost. More work will be done next week to correct the issues with the lower flush out...the camera scope showed where the issues are and though repairs are not immediately necessary, I prefer to be proactive rather than reactive. The cost quoted above is inclusive of the repairs that will take place next week. Overall, I find their service amazing and their fees competitive. I'm quite happy with their work!

Description of Work: Armstrong Plumbing sent out one of their employees, George, to repolace our defective garbage disposal. He showed up promptly after our telephone call..

We've used them before for something a little bit more expensive and we have gotten that recommendation from Angie's List for Armstrong and we had the same young man come out at the same time to do that. I think his name was Jacob. He did it a year before that and then again about a year and a half after that and that was about six or seven months ago. He was terrific. My husband used to do a lot of the work around the house before he had a stroke but having someone you can rely upon who does really good work and is very professional is very important to us and whatever the price at the time was was well worth it.
Description of Work: Armstrong Plumbing installed some plumbing in our main bath, it was some kind of a shower valve thing and also did some work on the kitchen sink.

Able to come to my house the next day and gave me an estimate how much it would cost me. Their plumber was nice , even wore shoe cover before entering my house. After unclogging my drain, gave me hints to avoid future problems and told me ahead of time how much it would cost (honored Angie's list coupon, saved $20).

How did it go? Fast, efficient, very professional service at a fair price. Can you ask for more than that? Our first venture into the world of vinyl siding repair, we were at the mercy of unscrupulous contractors like the one who did the original installation on the house, not knowing where to turn for help. Matt came to our rescue and repaired their shoddy workmanship and allowed us to pass the building inspection. We're so very happy with the work Matt performed and we'd give our highest recommendation to anyone considering installation of new siding or repair of existing siding. Two enthusiastic thumbs up!
Description of Work: We purchased a house that had siding installed. To our dismay the owners never had the work inspected and when we needed a new Air conditioning unit inspected we were denied a permit due to 2 existing permits that were outstanding. We had it inspected and the siding did not pass. Matt replaced torn siding and some that buckled around windows. He fixed one whole corner of the house and was able to use the existing siding whereever he could thus saving us money.

So far so good. I'm a pessimist by nature. Everything went very well. I called around 10:00 am. They were able to fit me in on the same day. Peter arrived by 1:00 pm and even though I had to go buy some parts ($80.00), he was basically done by 2:30. I was charged $155 for labor after taking off $20.00 for their coupon for first-time customers. I will definitely call them again if I have plumbing problems.
Description of Work: The hot water faucet in my shower was leaking. Peter came in and replace the inside parts and stopped the leak. I had him replace the cold water faucet too since it was in pretty crumby shape also. My idea, not his.

Overall, they did a good job. There was a mix up in when they were supposed to show up. They came late, but got the job done, appogized for the scheduling conflict and made it right.
Description of Work: First performed leak detection. Found a leak in pipes under the slab foundation of the house. Came back out a week later and fixed the leak. They had to jackhammer the kitchen floor. They only had to damage two tiles on the floor. Leak was about 3 feet under the floor. They found the leak, repaired it ans then filled the hole back with gravel ans Cement. Now I have to find someone else to repair the tile.

I called Armstrong to do a replacement of the water heater nipples. They were leaking for a few days. my original call was answered well and the plan was to have someone come out the next day. About an hour later they called back and said someone could come out the same day in a few hours. that was even better for me. He came out and did the replacement and checks. 2 days later I noticed the heater was leaking and it seemed to be coming from the cold water line. This was on Saturday morning. I called Armstrong and we agreed it ws not an emergency and it could wait to regular office hours. They came out on Tuesday morning, after the monday holiday. he replced the line for no charge. Having the warranty repair go well was so nice.

The quality of the work performed was excellent, it seemed to take forever and there were problems that arose that required the plumber to go to the store to purchase some more parts that were not available in the truck. I was charged that for that time as well as the travel time for the plumber to come to the house. I would have liked to have been informed of this travel charge when I made the appointment because I would have otherwise gotten a local plumber. I chose these guys because they were ranked highly on Angie's List.

they never returned my phone call.
Description of Work: I called on Jan. 6th because I had a serious problem that involved water getting up under my wood laminate floor. The answering service/operator asked me if I wanted a call back that day (which was Sunday) and I said no, Monday would be fine, but I had to hear back from them, it was a problem I wanted to address as early in the week as I could. The operator assured me I would get a call, and I had no doubt I would, but Monday came and went, and no call. So, I lost another day in getting this repaired and causing an inconvenience for my tenants. I don't relish the idea of looking like an incompetent landlord by not having a plumber on site to address the problem. It reflects on me. It was the second plumber in a a row to not return a phone call. At the least, a call that says, "I can't help you right now" would have been acceptable, I can deal with that. The reason I joined Angie's list was to increase my chances of avoiding this kind of thing.
