I hired Hayes plumbing after reading good reviews even though they have a $125 hourly rate. I used them over Touchton plumbing who was recommended by a Plumbing supply store. Touchtons rate is only $95 per hour. However when talking with Harry Hayes I felt he knew what I wanted done and even offered me a military discount. I asked for an estimate based on call out fee of $65 plus expected labor. He initially told me $250-300. I told him to have a plumber come out asap. My tile guy coordinated an appt at 0830 the next day as I was out of town. Instead of the plumber showing up, instead it was Harry Hayes who was not going to do the work. Instead he called me and said he was revising his original estimate to $400 due to it being on a slab. I once again asked if that was the max amount it would be and he confirmed that. At no time did he offer me a written quote or even tell me it was a fixed price. I went ahead and since I had already canceled with Touchton who were scheduled for the same morning and would have saved me a lot of money. I was in a pinch due to his not sending a plumber that morning so I said to get the plumber out. Fortunately my tile guy stayed during the entire work. He barely spent an hour on the job and I was quite pleased until Hayes sent me a bill for $371, included in that invoice was a labor charge of $296! He did graciously give me a 10% discount for my military service, but only on the labor- not the service call fee or the inflated $39 charge for a bit of pvc. Very insulting! After getting quite upset with him I did suggest a payment that I felt was fair and he agreed. Call out fee of $65 plus 1 hr labor plus inflated parts. Funny thing is that he originally charged me for parts it was $38. When I wrote my email back suggesting price I was willing to pay I mistakenly put $39. In his revised invoice he went with the $39. I'm not making this up! No military discount which was a joke to begin with. He did offer to not charge me as he knew I was upset and would likely write a poor review. I was not interested in a freebie, just wanted fair treatment. Instead I found a plumber who was not content with doing good work for a fair price. There aren't many honest businesses out there these days who will not try to take advantage of a customer and Harry L. Hayes Plumbing falls in this category. I would try someone else (maybe Touchton) next time.
Description of Work: I needed a cast iron shower drain removed and replaced with pvc as I was remodeling an old shower.

Response from Harry Hayes Plumbing
Dear Mr. [Member Name Removed], We wanted to reach out to you and respond to your review. We are so very sorry that you have felt mistreated by our company with your recent job you asked us to perform for you. I can assure you, in no way would we ever try to mislead you or anyone or take advantage of anyone. We pride ourselves in being an honest and fair company that puts our customers first and foremost. With that said, we know that we are all human and prone to make mistakes. After taking the time to review the job notes and corresponding emails and phone calls, we have come to a conclusion that this was just a miscommunication or at the very least a misunderstanding. Based on your review you wrote, you mentioned that the price was originally quoted as you stated, at $250.00-$300.00. You are correct that the reason the price was adjusted up was because the house was on slab. According to all of our phone records, you originally explained to us over the phone that it was not on slab, only when Mr. Hayes went out to look at the job, just to make sure, did he discover it was, in fact, on slab. The original price was then adjusted because of this new discovery that would bring about more work into this job. We understand the disappointment for the new price you were given but you did agree to the job being done and even asked us to go forward with the job after you were given the new price. We are happy that you stated that you "were quite pleased with the work", but we wish we could have done better at communicating throughout this process. We will use this opportunity as a learning opportunity as we strive to continually be the best plumbing company in Town!!!

It now looks great, the water drains out of both the sink and the tub.
Description of Work: The drain pipe coming out of the wall of the bathroom was cracked (or broken, I don't know which), but either way it leaked and water would not drain out of the bathroom sink. The plumbers had to break through a thick wall to get to the pipe, and then it had to be replaced all the way to the tub. Then the tub drain needed to be unclogged. Then tile on the wall had to be replaced.

Eric and Jacob were friendly and professional. I appreciate that they removed their shoes upon entering my home. The only thing that bothered me was that they were going to charge me a trip charge at first when the owner clearly told me they do not have trip charges. They took it off the bill.
Description of Work: Replaced Moen cartridge due to dripping (took about an hour as cartridge was stuck due to hard water buildup), unstopped clogged sink, replaced sink drain pop up stopper, replaced bathtub drain pop up stopper, I provided all the parts. If you need your Moen fixtures replaced, you can call Moen directly like me and get free replacement parts.

We have done business with Harry Hayes for many years. They are the only plumber we call and have always received great communication from them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY!!

Excellent job! I had left a phone message re the work and Harry responded back to me right away. He was very flexible in working around my schedule to get the work done as soon as possible. His techs, Eric and Jacob, called ahead to let me know their arrival time, then arrived on time and worked quickly and efficiently to get the job done. It was not easy for Jacob under the sink as the strainer basket was not the only part that was rusted! Great attention to detail by both. And I really appreciated that, before the new faucet was installed, Eric started cleaning the accumulated mineral deposits - I did not even have to ask. Very different from the last time I had a faucet professionally installed! While they were working, I thought of some other minor things that needed to be done. No problem! All done. Wish I could remodel kitchen/baths - I would call on this company again!
Description of Work: My kitchen sink's drain/strainer basket was rusted and leaking badly. Additionally, I had purchased a new faucet and needed it to be installed.

You'll be happy with Harry and his team. These guys go the extra mile and really care about the finished product. They addressed all my concerns and questions, they communicated exactly what they were doing and why. They always asked me before cutting any wall and left the house clean when leaving for the day.

We got an estimate in Sept. and he met me to go over the job. But we decided to wait a few months.. We then had more plumbing problems. Harry sent someone out the next day and included that reasonable charge with this job. There are tenants there and he went out of his way not to inconvenience them by turning the water back on each afternoon. When the job was done he met me and my husband and he explained what was done.
