Description of Work: We could not have asked for better service! We had our entire house re-plumbed. Our home is 45 years old and the pipes were in the slab. We told the men that they could come at 6 AM if they wanted to because the attic was hot! They were here promptly every day. They did a great job.

Response from Kempton & Self Plumbing Service Inc
[member name removed], I am curious as to why you posted that you would not hire us again considering that you rated us with a B. I would appreciate it if you would let me know how we can improve at your convenience. Thank you. Shari Kempton

Description of Work: I had Kempton & Self replace a gas water heater. They came initially and provided an estimate, which some plumbing companies will not do. On the install date, they were almost 2 hours late due to the extent of their prior job. A very clean install job was done, and I was pleased that that they used A.O. Smith water heaters, which are highly rated. The house is presently vacant, and when I checked the following day, I determined that one of the install connections had a small leak. When I reported this to them, they promptly returned and fixed the problem. Overall, I was pleased with their service, and will use them again in the future.

Description of Work: I bought a sink at Lowe's but when I went to install it the plumbing was more complicated than expected. Joe from Kempton's Plumbing arrived on time, if not a few minutes early. He removed the old sink without tearing the counter top & installed the sink and new faucet beautifully, capping off the extra drain under the sink. We also had a drain that was backing up in a bathroom since it was not installed properly by the previous house owners, took Joe 5 minutes to fix it with a part he had in his van. The morning of our appointment our toilets just happened to be not flushing - a clog in the main pipe. Joe was able to clean out the clog with a metal snake from the roof access to the drains - of all places! So there was no going thorough the house and getting the bathrooms messy as I've seen done long ago by another plumber. We also had a fold out tray-drawer in front of the kitchen sink to install. Joe offered to install it no problem. I'd call Kempton's again for any plumbing problem or installations. Very professional & kind, good courteous & considerate people - The amount I paid is an estimate from my memory since it was over 6 months ago, but I was expecting to pay much more for all that was done.

They did a very good job. The only problem with them was they had given me an appointment but they called to inform that they would be running late for their appointment. It was okay with me as they had to complete the work at another place. Other than that everything else was fine with them.

Unfortunately, no one showed up for the first apt. and I was told, when calling, that we weren't on the schedule. I had arranged my schedule to be home so I was a little preturbed. They were unable to send someone out for 2 more days but did show puntually this time and spent about an hour doing the job.
Description of Work: Kitchen sink hot water was allowing a drip and the spigot was also leaking at the base. I had a cartridge and a replacement washer, from the manufacturer as it was under warranty, for the spigot but couldn't get under the sink to do the work.

We had a number of repairs on this service call. We scheduled them when we called and we were given the appropriate amount of time. The plumber diagnosed and replaced a element in the electric hot water heater. Calcium build-up was the culprit and our plumber gave us the option of paying him to clean it out or learning how to do it ourselves. Naturally, we chose to learn and save money. This, done regularly should prevent future, premature element burn-outs. We did this and it worked out very well. He also replaced a broken tub drain, which are difficult to remove. He also replaced outdoor faucets and gave us advice on how to do it ourselves in the future.
