I have included the links to my Ring Doorbell which shows the workman's arrival and departure. Bob's Plumbing billed for 3 hours at $130 an hour. I should have only been billed for 1 hour and 45 minutes and feel that I have been overcharged by $161. The videos showing the elapsed time of the workman's arrival and departure was 2 hours and 16 minutes. As part of that time, the workman had to go to the shop/store to pick up the part that was needed for the repair. Bob's plumbing was aware of the part needed before the workman came out. The workman said that that part was used for the prior customer that day and that is why he had to go retrieve that same part. The time it took for him to pick up that part was 35 minutes. In addition to the overcharge on time, the prices charged for the materials used were twice the price that Kohler, Home Depot and Lowes charge. A hose bib was replaced when all that was needed was a gasket. The repairman took 4 days to return to reverse the valve that was installed backwards. Arrival [*** Link removed ***]!!FjuHKAHQs5udqho!K60ap4c5y-7Q88Ocr0J5EqU4kRFYwZknLnmIDuzTfBbOXD2BZQkLgcBCoKpX_RFLwqSxixNAIpJHBg$ Departure [*** Link removed ***]!!FjuHKAHQs5udqho!PJJvrj2AEo-CHVFHJS9lZeXAjW4MEclPiUWH52Vqpjoqyur2ntxx82x9Ff6Pnre9oZ-Yzo1pm2zhzg$ I would suggest that anyone needing a plumber to contact Sam the Plumber. His prices are very reasonable and he is reliable. Bob's Plumbing charged me $610 and Sam would have charged $210. The owner was supposed to call me about this issue but never did.

What a pleasure to deal with a company that has friendly, skilled technicians, responds promptly to your needs and charges a fair price for the work done. I had a mystery leak resulting in massive water bills and they were the only ones who could locate and repair it. I would never consider using any other plumbing company. I have complete confidence in Ross, John and Kenny (the leak whisperer) for all future plumbing needs.

Of all the plumbing company I have worked with over the years, the only one that I now use exclusively is Bob's Plumbing. They are honest, reliable, friendly and alway go the extra mile to do the job right. This company operates like an old fashion business; they provide excellent service and fair prices and strive for loyal customers. So many other companies just want to do the job, get paid and move on. Loyalty means nothing to the others. Bob's Plumbing is loyal to its customers and we are loyal the them.

I recently installed a dual fuel (gas stove top, electric convection oven) range in my kitchen , which required the conversion from the old all electric range, and the installation of a new gas line, and other components to connect the gas portion of the new range. I had used Bob's in the past for several projects, and have always been pleased with their work, their prompt arrival and their kept promises. As a licensed plumbing contractor, they are properly licensed and qualified for gas line installations. John told me about how much it would cost, and I agreed to have them install it on a time and material basis, including the permit cost. They did a top notch job, were prompt when they committed to the project, and assisted me in the installation of the range. I will certainly use them again for other projects in their trade.

The plumber that was sent out, Mark, found the problem right away, and went about to repair it. It was done in short order, and very professionally. He was neat and orderly and left me a wall that was neatly cut and easy to repair after he was done with the plumbing portion. He cleaned up the debris and only billed me for the time spent on the repair and obtaining parts, (which was very fast). I was very pleased with their work.

Communication was great. They made it clear on the first call I made that they may not get to me same day so I opted for the next morning. They called early the next morning to confirm and arrived on time. They quickly assessed the problem and got to work. Took just over an hour and made recommendations to prevent reoccurrence.

Overall very good experience with a complicated and difficult construction period. John and Gordon were experts with the build and install of all new plumbing for the house. There were a few glitches here and there, but they were able to address and fix everything. Thoughtful work and were able to address and adapt to changes that occurred in-the-field without issue. Quality work as well!

Leo was great. Fun sense of humor and happy to teach me a couple things about the process. $150 (90 min labor) + $52.00 (parts) = $202.00. Parts were probably a little pricier than necessary but that's sort of the game if you aren't DYI.

I'm not sure about the quality of the work they do, but I can assure you the customer service they have is the worst you can expect. I called them and the lady who picked up the phone was apparently not in a good mood, she was very impatient and very rude.

Called them to see if what's wrong on my sink. Because on what I can see, the sink is clogged. They send a plumber to see if they can fix the problem, they inspect under the sink and saw some leaks on the pipes. They opened the pipes and because it was very old, there's a lot of waste inside. That is why the sink was clogged. They replace the pipes under the sink, it was nicely wrap, kinda liked how they remodeled the pipes under the sink. I'm grateful to these guys.

We called Bob's Plumbing and explained (albeit likely badly) the issues that we were having at our house. They were very quick to set up a date and time to come out based on my availability. When the plumber, Mark, arrived he started with the smaller things and worked his way up to the larger issue. He replaced two flush valves that were leaking and also repaired our 1957 handles in the only bathroom that hasn't been updated. When he moved on to the mystery leak Mark was able to find that the leak was coming from the kitchen line to the septic tank. This turned out to be a major plumbing problem!!! The original cast iron line that went from the kitchen to the septic tank (under the slab in the part of the house without an accessible crawl space) had a gash along the bottom and all the water and detritus from the sink and dishwasher was just flowing into the tiny crawl space under our house. The original owners of the house had apparently tried to repair it before we bought the house (via the front wall of the house) and the job was not done correctly. John, the owner of Bob's Plumbing, came over and he and Mark came up with a solution where they would run the plumbing outside the house rather than ripping up our house. This made me VERY happy as we have 1957 terrazzo floors throughout our house. The job took 4 days to complete but we now have a new septic hook up for our kitchen, as well as a line for the washing machine and the necessary connection for when we have to do our third bathroom that happens to be on the same side of the house as the kitchen (we live in a split level house). Everyone who was on site was extremely courteous (not always seen in Miami), knowledgeable of exactly what their part of this complicated puzzle was, and cleaned up after themselves. Every step of the way was explained to us, everything was shown to us as it was completed, and they even have a person who repairs any damage done to the house (patching, drywall, etc.) John or Casey (John's brother) came by the site everyday to ensure that everything was done correctly and to our satisfaction. I would recommend Bob's Plumbing with my eyes closed, they were that good! They offer something that isn't common, or at least not for me. They offer complete service, from start to finish, without issue and with an attitude that is commendable. They deserve every accolade that I can think of and more.
Description of Work: We had minor things to do in the house plus a mystery leak in our kitchen that ended up being the line that feeds into the septic tank.

We have had a lot of issues with our plumbing over the past two years and therefore we have met a number of contractors who have completed work on our home. Overall, Bob's plumbing has been the best provider in every aspect of service, from the estimates to the actual repairs. Actually, this company did their best to go above and beyond our expectations, and they succeeded. For instance, they repaired a pipe that was poorly placed outside the drywall by another contractor at no additional cost. We enthusiastically recommend this company as a "best of Miami", and we are pleased to say that our plumbing troubles are over.

He got the water running freely by running a cable from the kitchen to bathroom lines to unclear stoppage, primarily in the kitchen sinks where water was not draining; he went up on the roof. He also worked on our filter system, capped off the lines to the defunct ice maker and installed new flappers in the bathrooms (while he was here). I have been using Bob's Plumbing for more than 25 years for our home and some rental properties, and John is always very accommodating and professional.
Description of Work: Mainly, cleared a stoppage in the kitchen sink.
