The person who came, Cleveland, was absolutely lovely, very professional and extremely helpful with my questions. He repaired everything extremely well but, the bill was $149 after a $30 Angie's list coupon (He did have a book and showed me the price in the book so I know he did not make up the cost for the repair. . I have seen the parts used at Home Depot and know they are pretty inexpensive so I just felt that the price was too high, but, Cleveland was awesome and I would have him back in a minute!

Thank you for your business. The cost to send a well trained technician in a well stocked late model service van to your home far exceeds the cost of parts for a minor repair. We believe that our prices are very fair and looking at your invoice 149 for a toilet repairs is very reasonable. If you have any questions please call me, my cell is 813-695-7556. Chuck Detari

The plumber was very courteous and professional. Unfortunately they could not "flush" my water heater due to the age. They indicated the flush may do more harm than good due to sediment. Made complete sense after he explained it.

Tank water heaters last on average ten years. At this point tank failure (leaking) is the most common problem. We take great care to do no harm, so at the technician's discretion upon examining a water heater he may decide not to flush it. If this is the case the heater should be replaced to avoid any water damage. We can provide options that best suite your needs and install a new energy efficient unit right away. Chuck Detari

There was some confusion with the coupon I purchased through Angie's List and when I called, I was told there was an additional $29 dispatch charge for the tech to come to perform the service. This was eventually resolved and the owner, Chuck, emailed me and let me know it was a mistake. I appreciated the personal contact.

Thank you for your review. When you purchase a coupon for a specific task like a water heater flush there is no dispatch fee. If you purchase a $115 for $200 dollars of service there is as with all on demand calls a $29 dispatch fee. The reason is we need to examine your plumbing repairs and provide you with an up front price for your repair(s) before we do the repair. This way if you are not happy with any part of our service you can pay the dispatch fee only and ask Angie for a refund. We believe though that once you witness the level of service we provide and the knowledge our technicians have you will be very happy with our company. Chuck Detari

Response from Chuck's Plumbing
We had to order special fitting to install your faucet because you have a piping system that is no longer manufactured. Shell Oil lost a class action law suite over polybutylene and it is no longer used in potable water systems. For us to adapt to it we need special fitting that we do not stock on our trucks because we rarely need to adapt to polybutylene. It should be replaced with PEX or copper piping. Many insurance companies no longer renew home owner's policies on home with poly-B until it is replaced. We give an up front price before performing any repairs, so you can always refuse the repair and pay just the 29 dispatch fee, but we believe our pricing is in line with the quality of service we provide. If you would like to discuss this further I will be happy to help in any way. My cell # is 813-695-7556. Chuck Detari

Vincent (Vinnie) was very thorough with assessing all the sinks and toilets. He provided lots of information and also gave us a list of "proactive maintenance" services that can be done prior to it being a bigger problem. Very knowledgeable. Really appreciate it and would use him again once it's time for the "renovation"

The experience went well until we called another plumber because we had to go through our home warranty. Chucks plumbing said it would cost us thousands of dollars to get it fixed. The other company found the issue and said our water line was fine just was clogged. So it was a little scary thinking we could have paid a lot of money for something very simple.

I believe there is some confusion here. We have two invoices for work we completed for this client. One for $79 to repair a garbage disposal and one for $229 to replace the valve on the ice maker line, the job in question. So we are the company that fixed it, not the company that quoted thousands of dollars! We have tried to reach the home owner to correct the issue, but have not heard back. We did give a quote to replace the water heater, but that is a separate job. Chuck Detari

The majority of our clients see the value in having a professional plumber visit their home to examine their plumbing project and give them a guaranteed up front price to properly preform their repair or replacement needs.

Chris checked the water heater for any leaks and then proceeded to flush it out. We talked about my water bill going up considerably and he then checked the bathrooms and the toilets to check for possible un noticed leaks. He recommended possible changing of the wax ring on one of the toilets. He checked the back of the kitchen sink where it seems that water is penetrating the laminate back when water runs off the edge and recommended a new sink in the future. He gave me estimate of a new Bradford water heater, as mine is ten years old. I saw all the sediment that came out in the flushing of my heater and told him I would wait, but I would consider it for the future. As well he gave me an estimate of the cost of replacing the wax ring for the toilet with a one year warranty as well as estimate of cost if the flange needed replacement. I was very satisfied with the service and "CHRIS" and his friendly and professional manner.

Everything was solid and as excepted. The only negative was the plumber indicated the new fixture, the sink and the adjacent granite joint needed a silicone caulk to ensure no water gets under the sink. The service should have been provided free or offered at a price.

We apologize, the technician was out of clear silicone, which is required to caulk the seam in the granite counter top. The faucet has a seal, silicone or caulk should never be used to seal the faucet to the sink counter top. If you need us to come back out to silicone the counter top we will be glad to free of charge. Chuck Detari

Last year Chuck's Plumbing installed 2 ADA compliant toilets. One of the toilets starting making noises a few months ago (as if it were having to refill the tank slightly) I finally got tired of hearing it, and called on Thursday 6/11/2015 and they had an appointment the next day. The tech found that the original flap was distorted, causing the fill valve to add water. He changed both parts to be sure we did not have the problem arise, and also found that the connecting plastic water line connecting the supply to the toilet was actually too long. He replaced that promptly. I cannot say strongly enough what a talented team of Plumbers Chuck's Plumbing has, as well as their dedication to honor product warranties with the utmost honor. Truly a trustworthy company.

Vinny and Steve arrived first thing in the morning as arranged. They reviewed our order with us to make sure we were satisfied with the new equipment they were going to install. We requested a toilet seat upgrade for both toilets which was provided for an additional cost of $30 for each toilet. After obtaining the new seats they got to work removing the old toilets and preparing the sites for the new replacements. The upstairs toilet in the master bathroom went in with no fuss. However, the floor in the downstairs guest bathroom was a little bit troublesome because the previous owner had tiled the floor in the bathroom as a do-it-yourself project or had it done by someone who did not have proper tile laying skills. The result was a very uneven surface for the new toilet to sit on which left small gaps in places around the base of the toilet. Fortunately Vinny was able to place the toilet and provide enough sealant to prevent any leakage from around the base. As of today, (two weeks later) the toilet has been working perfectly with no evidence of any leakage. We are very happy with the work done by Vinny and Steve. This is the second time I have used Chuck's Plumbing and remain very satisfied with the quality of the work provided. I will continue to use Chuck's Plumbing for my plumbing needs whenever the need arises.

I called Chuck's based on reviews here. I had a major sewage backup and he came out right away. I forgot the persons name but he was very friendly and professional. he spent a lot of time on the line. I ended up having a sewage line broken under my concrete driveway. He ran a camera and showed me the image of a previous repair. He then spent a long time preparing a quote which came back around $7.000. I ended up going with another company which was less money. several quotes I got back were less than half of the quote I got back from Chuck's.

Chuck arrived punctually at 830 a.m. Courteous and pleasant, competent, thorough. He put covers on his shoes before entering the house and also showed great consideration by completely answering all my questions. I hired them to flush my water heater and analyze its condition as well as to give me quotes on some other jobs around the house. He flushed the water heater and a few other jobs--all for the Angie's List Big Deal price. Great service ethic and professionalism. Seems like a solid company that is customer oriented. Nothing but praise from me on this job.

Thank you for taking time to write a review. Water heater manufactures recommend the their heaters are serviced once a year and that that service include flushing the tank or heat ex-changer (tank less). Newer home will also have either an expansion tank or expansion relief valve that serve as a safety device for the heater. They need to be checked as well and replaced every five years. Chuck Detari
