Tony came within an hour after I called. Fixed the problem and recommended solutions to a badly designed toilet and calcium deposits.
Description of Work: The toilet had just finally given up flushing - after a sluggish several months.

Tony showed up as scheduled and immediately determined what needed to be done to get the plumbing hooked backed up together under the sink. He also replaced some needed tubing and connections. The leak was also fixed. He worked quickly and efficiently until the job was completed.
Description of Work: Rehooking of plumbing under kitchen sink after granite counter installed. Also, leak fixed.

They were fantastic. When I told them we had a gas leak, someone came out the same day. They identified and isolated the line. Fred came the next day and gave me an estimate. They scheduled and did the work, which involved digging a trench through our side yard and across our backyard, including displacing stepping stones and rough stone pathways. They replaced all the stones and patched the grass. I was so impressed by how they repaired the trench once the work was done.
Description of Work: We had an underground gas leak. As it turned out, about 120 feet of buried gas lines had to be replaced.

He was on time, and spent a lot of time looking over the property and the issues involved. Provided me a detailed and fair quote in a prompt manner. Will use next time I need his help.
Description of Work: Fred came out to give me a quote on almost an entire re-pipe. He was extremely straightforward and knowledgeable, while taking our needs into consideration. His quote was more than fair. We were unable to use his services at that time due to unrelated circumstances. But would definitely recommend.

I called in the morning and by 4PM help arrived. The 2 plumbers went right to work and knew just what to do. They stayed and double checked that the problem was fixed. I was advised that tree roots were the problem and that I should have a video inspection done. They quoted me $250.00 for this service. They asked if the company should set up an appointment for this service. I said OK. The company has not called me to set up this appointment. This is OK as I will try to be careful and maybe I can hold off for awhile.
Description of Work: My service bathroom shower and toilet over flowed. I needed a cable run to clean out the pipe.

All our drain and sewer connected household items started clogging up and even pumping water back into the tub, toilet, etc. They gave me an estimate on the phone what it would cost and showed up within the 2 hour window on the same day as promised. The person they sent was professional, quick, and had all the work done quickly and charged us the estimated amount as promised.
Description of Work: Cleaned the main drain to sewer with a snake; removed all the clogged waste and debris. Advised us to get this done annually, as most of the debris were tree roots that must be growing into the system, as opposed to household waste clogging the drain.

The scheduler suggested Pete would be best for this job since he had extensive experience with American Standard fixtures. Pete was on-time and inspected the situation. He suggested that he return with a helper due to the fact that the fixture was very heavy and it had to be completely removed from the wall mount. He recognized the value of the antique tile and wall paper surrounding the toilet and wanted to protect everything from potential damage. We re-scheduled. He returned(on-time)with a helper and the job was completed as discussed. They did an immaculate clean-up upon completion of the job. This is the first time I used this company. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Rebuilt the interior workings and replaced seal on an antique(manufactured in 1932)American Standard toilet.

After another plumber diagnosed the problem as a defective valve and quoted me $650 to break into the wall and replace the valve, I decided to get a second opinion. Called Fred Morrow but did not tell them about the other plumber's diagnosis or estimate. The plumber from Fred Morrow arrived right on the dot, determined the drip was due to a bad washer and replaced it within 30 minutes. Needless to say, Fred Morrow is now my new plumber.
Description of Work: Fixed a dripping shower faucet.

They are a little expensive but they are very worth it. They were creative in solving a moisture problem, they gave me ideas and they were efficient. In fact, I have a faucet for another sink, and they are coming back to do that for me. They are honest too because I asked about me buying the faucet vs. them buying the faucet and he said that if you went to a couple places you could get a better price than what they could give me. They were timely. I wouldn't call them inexpensive, but as plumbers go, coming out and trouble shooting and knowing what you are doing is a valuable thing and not wasting time. They were very efficient. With the price, I do think they are fair even though, they do charge a travel fee because they come from the Valley.
Description of Work: They did quite a bit, they replaced a new faucet in my kitchen sink. They also replaced the cartridges in my shower.

From the office lady's kind help and knowledge of plumbing problems, to her sincere interest to help us in our plight....the Fred Morrow Plumbing folks acted totally professionally and with our needs foremost in their minds. We have, at last, found our permanent plumber in whom we can trust for professional work, courtesy, and fair prices.
Description of Work: Fred Morrow Plumbing found the source of our water leaks in and around our hot water tank. They stopped the leaks, replaced the corroded pipes, and got our household running smoothly again.

Working on setting up the appointment went easily and professionally until the day before the plumber(s) was set to show up. They called and wanted to change the appointment time to a time that wasn't good for me, and generally wasted my time on the phone. We found a time that worked for us all and then the plumber and his assistant (which no one bothered to tell me about) showed up one minute before the two hour window. Admittedly, I was not happy when they showed up at the very last minute, but truly, I was taken aback by the unbelievably rude and angry attitude of the plumber. It was a really unpleasant experience and I will not use the company again.

Our master shower had been draining slowly for about a week. Then one morning the shower would hardly drain at all and the guest toilet overflowed. I called Fred Morrow Plumbing that morning and they made arrangements to come out that same afternoon. They called when they were on their way, arrived promptly, were courteous, and completed the work very quickly.
Description of Work: Cleared back-up/blockage of main line which was causing drainage problems in the master shower and overflowing toilet in the guest bathroom.

I was disappointed that my garbage disposal was beyond repair, but I knew it was very old and had been repaired before, so I trusted the plumber when he said I needed a new one. The one he installed seems to be very high quality, and I believe the price was fair. He also told me that I could shop for my own disposal if I wished and he would install what I bought so I didn't feel pressured to buy from him. I thought I had a leaky kitchen faucet, but the plumber said it was fine and that the pressure regulator was badly degraded and so excess pressure was building up and causing the leak. He didn't have the part necessary, but ordered one for the next business day and didn't charge me for an extra service call to install it. He was a very pleasant person, and I'm happy with the work done.
Description of Work: Plumber installed a new garbage disposal when mine couldn't be repaired. Plumber also installed a new pressure regulator for water flow into the house.

Very pleased. Water heater broke on a Saturday. We called Saturday late and somebody actually responded and had a plumber call us back, who told us that the owner, Mr. Morrow, would call us back on Sunday. On Sunday, Mr. Morrow called as promised and explained the costs, warranties, and types of water heater available and said he could send people to do the work on Monday morning. Although a little late (1/2 hr. past the time window), the plumbers showed up and did the work. Workers seemed efficient and professional. Will definitely call back for our future plumbing needs.

We had a burst pipe. Our usual plumber was on vacation. We found Fred Morrow plumbing on Angie's list. We placed our call on Sunday afternoon and they would have come the same day but we wanted to wait until Monday morning to avoid double charge. Fred Morrow called on Monday morning to get the details of the job. Tony came an hour and a half later as promised. He replaced the regulator valve on the outdoor plumbing. He also inspected our hot water heater and diagnosed a faulty thermocoupler. The hot water heater was under warranty. He was very thorough, he gave me the phone number to call and wrote down the serial number and any other numbers they might ask for and promised to return and install it when it arrived. We were very pleased with Tony and would be happy to use Fred Morrow Plumbing in the future.
