Always Great!
Description of Work: Patrick came out for a simple tub drain clog. But I have to add that we have been using Patrick and Budget Plumbing for over 10 years! This includes two major plumbing repairs on our 50+ year old house; all new main line to street and trenching in a replacement drian for our kitchen (slab floor). All his jobs are handled in a professional and straight forward manor.

Crew and Pat, the owner, scoped out the problem and resolved it in a prompt and professional manner. They were very courteous and careful not to cause any more damage to my front vegetation than was necessary. The debris was removed and the front yard cleaned-up, even replanted the ivy that had to be dug up. I could hardly tell that the crew had been there.
Description of Work: Installed a sewer clean-out plug in front yard

Very well!
Description of Work: The drain from the washing machine would overflow. It was determined that the drain from the kitchen sink was clogged and caused the backup. The outside cleanout for the kitchen sink was used to clear the clog. A long "snake" was used. The plumber team made it seem so simple.

Apart from some scheduling issues to get them to come and give me an estimate (due mainly to the fact we both had a very busy schedule), I had a great experience with them. They were late on the morning of the job, but not too much. In the future, I would suggest that if they believe they will miss the time window scheduled for the job, they should call ahead and let the customer know. The job was, however, done very well, and they cleaned up well after the job. Their cost was much lower than other 3 estimates I got.
Description of Work: Installed a gas line from the basement to the kitchen for a gas range.

Everything taken care of even faster than we had hoped. This work was done in Dec. '07
Description of Work: Water in hall and bathroom floors-called Pat who rearranged his schedule to come out quickly to stop water flow and avoid more damage. He cleared the drains causing the trouble and checked all others in the house to make sure all ok. This company is not new and is sole/owner operated by "Pat". Was formally called "Drain Patrol" but original partnership canceled so name had to be changed.

Known as Plumbers Squad on Angie's List, but actually are now under a different name after a split with a business partner some time back. Overall it was a Great Experience! I called on the prior Wednesday or Thursday and had Saturday morning scheduled for a visit and quote. Pat's (the plumber/owner) sister Heidi asked the necessary info and scheduled the appointment. When he was running late due to an unexpected problem at his first appointment Saturday, Heidi called to let me know. Pat showed up and I explained what I wanted done. He gave me a verbal quote of $650, which I thought was very fair considering he'd have to crawl under my house at least four times to both give me the quote and then come back and do the work. He showed up on Monday, a bit later than planned, did the replacement of the front pressure regulator, then had to leave due to an emergency call, but came back about 2-3 hours later and finished the complete job in about another 2 hours. He had his assistant, Scott, with him on both work visits and they were both friendly and easy to work with. They cleaned up after themselves and I've observed no leaks or any other issues with their work after 24 hours. The final price actually came in slightly lower than the quote of $650 (at $635) due to less copper pipe being used than initially estimated. I can STRONGLY RECOMMEND THEM and would use them again.
Description of Work: Added a 3/4" copper extension off existing 3/4" copper line underneath my house to extend to my new underground sprinkler system connection (PVC) at the back right corner of my house (about a 4 foot copper extension). Also replaced the 1" main pressure regulator at the front of the house and the exterior faucets at the front and rear of the house (two total).

Excellent service. I called a couple of plumbers who couldn't come that day. Pat at Plumbers Squad rearranged his schedule and came out to take care of everything. He also charged much less than original phone quote.
Description of Work: Water was flooding into the hall and bedroom. He charged less than phone quote. I will always have him out for service. He unclogged drains & changed some pipes, checked & cleared all drains in house to avoid future trouble.

They are punctual and courteous. They provided good suggestion. It took more time than they thought initially and installation is not entirely sturdy. Had I had more time and patience, I'd insist on seeing receipts of goods purchased for the job and a written estimate. Often times when you finally get a contractor in after a duration of mess in your house and had to take time off from work to wait for other services folks you get weary and impatient.
Description of Work: Installed 2 sinks, 2 faucets and 1 garbage disposal.

Heidi Larson the manager and sister of the plumber was very accommodating and responsive when I called to make an appointment. On the day of service, both she and the plumber called and very apologetically told us that he had an emergency job up in Antioch that he needed to do first and asked if he could reschedule the job for later in the day. He came at the time he specified and was very personable and efficient. Took care of our plumbing issues in a timely fashion.
Description of Work: We had a decrease in our water pressure from the faucet in our kitchen. He unhooked the pipes and cleaned out the debris. Also tightened the faucet handles in our bathroom sink.

I noticed my den wall was showing signs of moisture leaking through, I knew I had a leak. I called Budget Plumbing at 7:00 am the next morning Heidi answered the phone and said she would have Pat at the house by 10:30, he was right on time. Pat found the problem and had it fixed in 15 minutes! Heidi and Pat were very courteous and did a great job. I will use them again when necessary.
Description of Work: Repaired 1/2" copper pipe that was leaking behind shower wall, cut through sheet rock to access leak. Used 1/2" copper coupling on riser to repair leak. Tested good.

Pat was the only plumber out of 3 that not only gave me the best price, but also detailed the fact that I should have 2 new drain systems instead of one. He was prompt, professional and I will be using him again when I extend my house. If you need a plumber, go with Pat, you will not find any better !
Description of Work: Pat replaced all the drains under the house. He removed the old pipe and ran 2 new separate drains, strapped them to the subfloor and tested them out.

Our flush system seemed to be on the verge of not flushing, so we called Pat on a Sunday. He came out and assessed our needs free of charge. Right away he suggested that we call the manufacturer of the flush system because he thought that they would be willing to send replacement parts. Luckily, we were sent a new unit FREE of charge. On the day that Pat installed the new flush system, he also replaced the kitchen faucet. I appreciated his attention to detail in this area; the old plate had been secured improperly with silicone and he made sure that there wasn't any old gunk left surrounding the new plate. Overall, Pat did a great job. He is enthusiastic, easy to communicate with, fast, and neat. It really came thru to me that his goal is to do the job right. We will be calling him for more projects in the future.
Description of Work: Pat replaced our Flushmate Flushometer tank system in our toilet. He also inspected our old dishwasher for signs of life and replaced our troublesome kitchen faucet.
