The plumber called on his way and arrived in the time frame scheduled for. He first removed and replaced a damaged toilet flange, which was no small job. Then he removed and and installed toilets (2) in each bathroom along with the vanity sink and faucet in the master bath. The worker was very professional, friendly and completed the job in a timely manner.
Description of Work: Installed vanity sink and faucet, repaired toilet flange and installed two toilets.

It got a little stressful when the set I bought from Lowes was defective. The process of putting the showing fixture in was extensive and when the et did not work it left us without our shower for the weekend. They came back on Monday but it ended up being $2000 total for the work because they were charging us by the hour.
Description of Work: The replaced our water heater and changed out the fixtures in our shower and 3 sinks.

Response from Whitehead Plumbing, Inc.
Thank you for taking time to write your review. We apologize that you had to be without a shower for the weekend, but, unfortunately, there was nothing we could do since you had purchased a defective shower valve set from a big box company. We do charge by the hour, not by the job, which is why your bill came to $2,000 - please keep in mind that if you had hired a company that charged by the job, you would be looking at $3,000 - $5,000 - replacing a water heater, changing out an entire shower valve (not just the trim), and changing out 3 sinks is a major job. In fact, this is almost what is considered a "trim-out" phase for a small house on a new construction job. We encourage you to call around and get quotes for the work that was done. We appreciate your business.

II called them today and the plumber was here in approx. 45 minutes. It took him less than an hour to do the work. Part of the charge was for parts and the labor was reasonable.

He was quick, professional,and worked cleanly. The service technician did not try to sell me anything he just did what he was asked to do. Since the job turned out to be very simple (and quick) he only charged us a portion of the normal service call charge.I appreciate this policy that Whitehead Plumbing has.

It was a pleasure doing business with Whitehead Plumbing. They were very helpful in determining the primary problem with my sewer line and guiding me through my options for addressing it. Decided to have Whitehead replace my old cast iron sewer line (as preventative maintenance) once the City repaired the broken section on their end, since I had already dug up a good section of the pipe. Whitehead was very professional and even reduced the final price of the work after discovering the job wasn't as time-consuming as they originally thought it would be. Thanks for taking care of us Whitehead!
Description of Work: Assisted in locating broken sewer line which was causing sinkhole in my yard, assisted in determining the broken pipe was actually the City's responsibility to repair, replaced remaining portion of my sewer line once the City repaired the broken section.

It went very well. Able to respond in about 30 minutes after I called. My sink garbage disposal stopped working. The provider checked it our, determined it was jammed, corrected the jam without me having to buy another disposal. Although it cost me about $125 for a half hours work I probably saved some money by not having to buy a new unit.l

Effective, efficient, courteous. Based on our experience in other parts of the country, the price seemed a bit high. We were not aware that the senior discount would not apply to a reconnect. However, I would recommend the company. The service technicians were great.

Called to get someone to diagnose and estimate repairs on balky toilets. They man I spoke with seemed almost... lost. Instilled no confidence whatsoever. When he told me that they can't come out and look at the problem and determine how to fix it, I decided this was probably not the plumbing company for me.

I read [member name removed] review several times, and it's almost as though he may have confused us with another plumbing company? There are only two gentlemen in our office - they work in the parts counter department. There are three women in the office who answer the telephone. [member name removed] call would have been given to our service dispatcher, assuming she did not answer the phone. She would have scheduled a service call for [member name removed], as we can most certainly diagnose and repair "balky" toilets. If, indeed, [member name removed] contacted our plumbing company, all I can do is apologize and ask him to call back and speak with our service dispatcher. I'm sure he would be pleased with our services.

We were told over several years by several plumbers that the only way to fix or replace our faucet handles in both of our bathroom tubs was to "cut into the wall and replace the piping all the way back into the wall." Thus, having newer fittings out front with which to exchange all the hardware. We just kept using those flimsy universal kits, and were 1 step from the dreaded ViceGrips on pipe stems. Went to Whitehead on-a-whim, and they told me they had my brand bathtub faucet rebuild kit (1970s Crane)! They could install it, or I could do it. I was able to send pictures via text to Trae, one of the plumbers, and he confirmed the kit I needed was in stock. I bought two, it took 30 minutes to do each one, and our faucets work like new! No drips, no slips, and they look great. The other plumbing outfits either wanted to make some bucks by doing much more extensive work, or were just too lazy to look up a part that was no longer manufactured. Whatever the case, I know who to call now! This is what true, hometown customer service is all about!

Our technician went out to this job site, as requested, to check a leak on the copper water line going to the water heater. Our technician tightened up the packing, as this was all that was needed. Our hourly rate is $115.00 - we charged (member name removed) our courtesy call of $55.00 since it took less than 20 minutes, plus our standard trip charge of $5.00. We feel this was a fair price for our technician coming out, discovering the problem, and repairing the problem. I would like to note that there are some plumbing companies who do not even offer a "courtesy call" and would have charged the full $115.00. We hope (member name removed) understands, and that we may continue a pleasant business relationship with him.

While this is all true, it cost me $105 for less than a 5 minute visit. I certainly understand the reason to charge for a service call but I find this a bit high. I have used Whitehead many times and find them to be professional, prompt and they can get the job done. I am usually surprised by the higher price.

After reading (deleted member name) review, I pulled his work order and looked it over. I immediately saw the discrepancy, which was a clerical error of a travel charge. I called (deleted member name) and explained, to which he was very agreeable - and I sent him a refund check in the amount of the incorrect travel charge. (deleted member name) is a very good customer of ours, and we hope to continue a pleasant business relationship with him.

The job was scheduled for a later date, but started early. On the first day, service was restored to two restrooms in two separate parts of the building. On the second day the plumbing for the hot water was completed along with some additional work that was not included in the original estimate. Overall, my wife is very happy with the work which was done at her salon. Although the work was performed in an expedient and efficient manner, the price seemed a bit steep.
Description of Work: Completely re-plumbed a building that was originally built in the 1940's and had a plumbing system that consisted of a mix of copper, PVC and galvanized piping. During the job, a new cut off valve was installed and two hose bibs were relocated.

We upgraded all of the plumbing fixtures in a townhouse we had recently purchased. They were very professional and prompt with their quote. The workers arrived at the scheduled time and immediately laid down vinyl and blankets in all the work areas. They were polite and professional and worked quickly. All work was completed within the estimated time and they cleaned up after themselves. We were very pleased with the work and will be using them for any future plumbing needs.
Description of Work: Upgrades included 2 new lavatory sinks and faucets; 1 new kitchen sink and faucet; 1 new shower stall and fixtures; 1 new tub faucet and shower head in existing tub; and 2 new commodes. They also serviced my Rinnai tank-less water heater.

We awoke to our water heater pumping water into the garage instead of the house. I checked Angie's List and was able to contact Whitehead plumbing at 9:30am. The lady on the phone said she would have someone out before noon. Well, around noon I called to see if they could tell me how much longer and a man answered this time. He looked up my address and said it would be at least 2 more hours. I informed him that the lady who'd answered that morning told me it would be before noon; he said to her in the background, "You told her before noon?" To which she replied, "I told her maybe." This was a lie. I had no reason to say this; she obviously spoke out of turn and made a mistake for which she didn't want to take responsibility for. He apologized and said that there were 2 more jobs before me so there was no way he could really give a concrete time estimation. I said that was fine and waited for the plumber to come. He came just shy of 2pm. Thankfully, he was more professional than the front office had me thinking he would be. This review is based upon his time and professionalism; not necessarily the company as a whole. The tech, Lonnie, was very professional and had the new heater installed in 1 hour. He gave us a quick tutorial on how to work the pilot light and updated us on how the new would be different from the old. He explained their warranty in full and was able to get a confirmation number for my credit card payment in less than 1 minute. I would use this company again and specifically use the same tech.....but will not put any stock into what the receptionist says the timing "will" be.

(member name removed), Thank you for the "A" review. We are very glad that you were pleased with our service. Regarding the office personnel, we apologize for any discrepancy that occurred and regret that you had to wait two hours longer than what was told to you. This being said, we hope our customers can understand that, in this service based business, there really is no way to pinpoint an exact time that a technician will be over. The best we can do is give a ballpark time - and even this is tricky, due to the fact that sometimes the technician will run into an unforeseeable problem, and the call may take much longer than anticipated, causing all the service calls after that to be delayed. Please be assured that we strive to send our technicians out to you as soon as possible. Thank you again.
