We discovered that the master shower enclosure was leaking at the home of my 85 year old father. Robert England quickly assessed the problem as being a poorly constructed enclosure. He quoted $3500 to demo and rebuild it with ceramic tiles that we provided. He offered to start quickly. The job went very smoothly with Robert on site and doing a lot of the work himself. He was very responsive and sensitive to communicating with both me and my elderly father. He got me the number and type of tiles we should be buying and the job went very smoothly until his tile setter flaked out. We lost a couple of days waiting for the tile setter. He ended up finding another tile setter and the job was completed just a little later than we expected. Being an employer myself I know that getting good and reliable workers is a challenge. Robert was very responsive, communicating with me about the delay and how sorry he was about it. At the end of the project, the new shower enclosure is beautiful. He installed grab bars for my father and we are very happy with the work. I would hire him again without reservation.

1st- When I talked to him, he told me that the promotion that I paid for from Angie's List would cover 2 hours of work. I thought okay. 2nd- When he got to my house, he came up with many lectures about the lint connection and the gas connection, etc that would not work. Then yes, he could use the parts that were there. However, I should get a new lint connection between the dryer and the outside vent. He would go get it. I said, "no"; I would. 3rd- When I get back, he tells me "oh, I checked your bathrooms, and it could be four different problems for each bathroom, but I do not have the time to do it, and it would not be at this price. Call me next week if you want it done." I am looking confused because I still have 40 minutes left on my 2 hours that you told me. Also, if you did not spend a lot of time lecturing and working, you could have done what I told you needed to be fixed on one of them. Lastly, this guy is really something. Also, I do not know if Angie's List is as good as it states when it comes to plumbers. I called a friend, and he referred me to another plumber. The guy came and did the work on both toilets in one hour! By the way, what I told him was wrong with the toilet in the kids' bathroom was exactly what was wrong. I would, at least, have expected him to lift the toilet and see if I was correct. I saw a Utube video and even the guy fixed the wax problem in a toilet in 10 minutes. Lastly to the lastly, I think that Angie's List should check these promotions because they are doing them to get a foot in the door and charge more instead of committing to a discounted rate for services.
Description of Work: Hooked up washer & dryer. He claimed that he examined the toilets in my two bathrooms.

Response from RG England Plumbing Co Inc
Wow ! How disappointed in the human race I am now. You called before the visit and I told you" you would get UP TO 1.5 hrs w that coupon and that there was no way we could disconnect old and hook up your new washer and dryer and pull and repair the many possibilities of problems with toilets all together in that 1.5 max. all before we came and we also told you that you could easily get your money back for the coupon and we would never have to meet at all. I wish I didn't even try to accommodate you. You chose on the phone to have us just come out to deal with the washer dryer situation (ON THE PHONE). You made the choice not us, are you having memory issues ? When we came all I could see was the filth of your entire house all the way through the garage and the dangers that existed with your current living situation. Your dryer flex hose was kinked, not hooked up properly, lint going everywhere and spreading all around the water heater- CAN YOU SAY FIRE ? Hello in there.. during our phone conversation you told me that you had all new connections, but you didn't even check- your fault not mine. So you went to get the stuff- good for you -you did something today. after we cleaned up the mess around the washer and dryer, we also cleaned all around the water heater. the lint was everywhere and the garage was so packed with junk we couldn't move anything without moving something else. we also showed you exactly what was wrong with the existing connections and what we did differently. Then we showed you the dangers that existed with not cleaning up around the water heater area so maybe you wouldn't light the house on fire this year. As for the toilet we did have time to look at it. The bathroom was FILTHY ! even more than the house. we showed you that the toilet was loose and told you the 3 different reasons that it might not be working correctly and said we would need to pull the toilet to examine the possibilities further. By this time you had 2 guys there just over an hour . (2x1=2 by the way), so that 1.5 max I told you about actually got you 2 hrs,(and we stayed, knowing that too) but you can't see that because you're so busy trying to save nickels so you can put them towards cleaning your house some time down the road-NOT. Pulling a toilet as I told you could be a can of worms AS I TOLD YOU. and your time left didn't allow for us to open that can of worms after we dealt with your washer garage issue. We always will educate a client as to what we have done, what you should do going forward, and the things you might want to watch out for going forward. For us it's about communicating with people to help them know how to help themselves and make good decisions. We are not here to sell you "stuff". we will tell you even what you don't need often so don't go saying we are wasting time or trying to upsell you. Truth be known, my health is better served getting out of that house, but I dealt with it. Now I see many homes, and I know some people have more money for maids and help around the house, so I put up with it and say nothing, until you try and ream me like this. I work hard to accommodate and help people and I put up with a lot of unpleasant things. Taking off that toilet for you was another hour minimum (if it was only a defective wax ring) and if it was a rotted closet ring and rotted drain lines it would have been that can of worms that I told you it could be. You had told me your "friend" had set that toilet and never put a wax ring under it and that's why it did not flush. Well a toilet that doesn't flush completely usually means there is an issue with either the toilet or the drain lines below the floor- it has nothing to do with the lack of a wax ring there. Besides that, if a client ever tells me that they had their friend set the toilet and they never put a wax ring there beforehand- yet they lived with it like that for months, well I know that person is not real goal oriented with respect to doing the plumbing job correctly in the first place. So I ask myself "does this person really want to spend any more money doing things right ?" In your case I was trying to save you more heart ache and dollars that I knew you didn't want to spend. I don't appreciate the bashing you try to give me. Your communication skills are lacking and you never mentioned your issues to my face. I told you before we even came that you could get your money back for the coupon and that we couldn't do both items (and not likely the toilet solo for that 1.5 max). You made the choice to have us out anyway to do your washer and dryer only and you knew it before hand. so for all the other trades out there, you will be on our list to never serve again. Any trade can call me because we keep that list and share it openly. As for Angies List, they do a pretty good job trying to find quality folks and serve people well. Every company is about making money of course, but Angies also looks after the needs and wants of the clients too, which is rare these days. So in closing, I am sorry you were not happy, but you knew what your options were even before we started. Next time don't but what you don't want, never call us again, and clean your front yard so your neighbors will be happier with their own homes.

I called Robert England late in the evening about the discovered broken water pipe. Although after hours, he called me back immediately, scheduled a time to come by. He was prompt, throrough and quick. In less than an hour the pipe was fixed. I have used his services before. What I really like about him is he explains to you thoroughly what the problem is, how it may have been caused, how he will fix it and then fixes it. This is really important because if the customer is doing something to cause the problem, this is something that should be known. I highly recommend him. He is good, punctual, professional and priced very competitively.

All went okay. No complaints.
Description of Work: Used an offer of 2 hours of plumbing labor for $109 to replace a flexible metal hose that was in our line when a water softener was removed, replacing it with a 6" section of copper pipe - as was there originally. Supposedly a new union fitting was required, so we paid extra for the part.

We had a very good experience with the guy who came out. He was very honest and very forthright which we appreciated. He was also reasonable. The cost of the service was about $200 to $300. He was very professional and very punctual. We were really pleased with him and we would use him again anytime.

He went right to work. Once toilet was removed he called me in and explained the situation. In my case the flange was too high and he explained how this affects the functionality of the toilet. He also check the bathtub drain to make sure the leak was not coming from there. He inspected all around the toilet and also the plumbing that removes that water from the toilet. He clean, replaced seals and wax seal and re-mounted the toilet. He also inspected the hardware on a separate bathtub and gave me some good suggestions for improving the performance. He was polite, clean, professional, prompt and very educational. I will definitely use him again.

Robert showed up at the committed time. After reviewing what we originally called him for we discovered that the drain in one of the showers needed to be replaced. This was unscheduled, however, he took the time to complete the task so the shower drain would work again. This took awhile and was in a difficult area of the upstairs access point but he got it done within a reasonable amount of time. He also took care of unclogging the laundry drain and replacing 3 toilet flappers. What was expected to take place within a few hours ended up taking about 4. I'd use RG England Plumbing in the future if needed.

I purchased the big deal coupon for this service and it went fine. The deal was worth $200 of licensed plumbing services. They are a very responsive company. They showed up on time and did a great job. I have no complaints with them. I scheduled the time with them to come out because it wasn’t an urgent need. I called and left a message with the owner I think, and he called back within an hour. So he was just really responsive and very courteous when I talked to him. I was not here when they came but my husband was. So I think the clean up went fine. I didn’t hear anything bad about them from my husband, and so I think everything was okay.
Description of Work: I used RG England Plumbing Co Inc for plumbing services. They came out within a week after I purchased the big deal coupon. I had a major obstruction in the laundry room pipes and so they helped to clear that out. So they got it running smoothly now and I can do my laundry again.

I was so pleased with the quality of his work, the information he provided, and his management of contact and scheduling, that I engaged him to replace my kitchen faucet (which is the job cited in the details above).
Description of Work: I first contacted RG England about a leak from an upstairs shower into a downstairs bathroom. Since the repair was not urgent, he gave me an estimate of when he could come by and kept me apprised of progress toward that tentative commitment. He stopped before that to do an initial assessment. He completed an interim repair of faucet replacement and tub patch, which is still holding fine. He did not push for a bathroom remodel now, although that will likely be required in the future. (When the time comes for that, I will go to him first).

Not good. I had someone else do the work. It cost me more, but I'm very satisfied with the other plumbers I called. They were much more responsive, coming the day after I called. They could have come the day I called, but I wasn't free.
Description of Work: After a long time responding after I paid for the service, I called him and told him what I needed done. Immediately he told me that the work I wanted done--moving a shower valve--had a minimum price of $375, and that it would take a couple of hours. I called another plumber and had him come and do the work in less than two hours. He said, essentially, that the price was a come-on, and told me to settle things with Angie's List.

He purchased an "Angies list deal" that had restrictions on it. I told him about the restrictions as soon as we spoke on the phone, and that we couldn't perform the dangerous service he was after for the $79.00 we collect from that particular deal. I immediately called Angies to get the fine print accurately updated so we didn't have any misunderstandings in the future.I also told him he could get his money back from the marketing service that sold him the deal (which was Angies list,not us)- and he did. No harm no foul, except that he has to scorn us to feel vindicated. We always do our best and prefer to praise rather than crucify others.
