It went well. The technician was personable. They positioned it in one place but I couldn't get between it. I wanted a couple inches away but it was easy to move it. It's looks really nice. I got a rebate from TECO since I have a gas water heater.

I had no idea what was wrong with my shower or why I wasn't getting hot water. They were very prompt, even early. Which was wonderful considering I called that morning! Paul came in and didn't mind my dogs (4) and took the time to explain to me what the problem was. He had someone else come over to help out and everything was fixed exactly like they said it would be. I also received an email explaining who was going to be coming by to do the job with a picture of the technician. Everyone who comes to your house is background checked. I had a great experience with them and would certainly hire them again!!!
Description of Work: I needed them to fix my shower hot water knob as I wasn't able to get hot water in my shower. I called the morning of the 24th and within 2 hours I had Paul at my door to fix the problem.

They arrived on time. Began immediately, were very careful about creating as little mess as possible. Were able to run master bathrm pipes so that I did not have to retile, much appreciated. The crew was very pleasant. One note for those of you faced with redoing your pipes thru the ceiling- the cold water runs hot for quite awhile. They tried insulating but it made no difference. Don't know yet if the winter will make a difference in the water temp.
Description of Work: had three leaks that caused thousands of dollars to repair water pipes walls, cupboards, and flooring. Was advised to repipe. That is what I contracted with Chucks to do.

Thank you very much for your business and the review. We always take care to protect and keep your home clean and safe while we work there. As for the temperature of the cold water, in most Florida homes the hot and cold water replacement has to be run through the attic. This does cause the cold water to be warmer then it was when the pipes were under the concrete floor. There are newer attic insulation products that are applied directly to under side of the roof, cooling the attic space. If you would like I will assist you in finding a contractor that does this.

Returned from vacation and found we had a leak under house. As we had Chuck's repair a leak for us in May I called them even tho it was Labor Day. Chuck called me back within a half hour and had someone at the house later that afternoon. He found and repaired the leaking pipe within a short time. Chuck even came out to insure the problem was related to the earlier repairs. Great job and great response.

When I called them in a panic due to this issue, they came out within an hour and half. After they arrived and four hours later, they fixed it! Next time, I will just call them and not ask my hubby to try to fix especially since plumbing can be a sensitive thing to fix. I also used them to install a water softener at another time, and they did a great job. I don't write reviews often but each time they were professional, on time, reasonably priced and successfully got the job done. I will definitely be calling them again with my plumbing needs.
Description of Work: Fixed what started out as a leaky faucet then when my husband tried to fix it, got broken. So, by the time the plumber got there, there was a broken valve and we had to shut the water off.

Thank you for your review. When we price a water heater replacement we included a new drip pan, emergency water valve and an expansion tank or valve to bringing the heater to code. Many companies quote a low price over the phone, then the tech tells you he also needs to add X,Y&Z and that it will cost extra. We do not play that game, we give you a price and stick to it. A quality home owner experience is our #1 goal. Chuck Detari

Will not be using them for service, as I will not pay a service charge for a quote.
Description of Work: I was looking for a quote to run a water line for an ice maker. As expected, they were happy to schedule an appointment. However, this appointment for them to provide a quote would come with a $29 dispatch charge. Will not be using for this job or any other in the future.

Response from Chuck's Plumbing
This gentleman called for a price to run an ice maker line and wanted that price over the phone. The ladies here are customer service representatives, not plumbers, their job is to help you schedule a visit from one of our well trained service plumbers, in a well stocked service truck, who will examine your plumbing needs and give you a guaranteed price. We can not price every job of the phone, many of those quotes would not be accurate and that would start an other type of complaint. This visit is only $29 a very fair price for one of our technicians to personally inspect your plumbing. Many of our clients understand this policy once they have experienced our service in person.

Thank you for your business and review. Typical water heater warranties are six years for the tank, two years parts and warranty. That is why there was an installation charge. Solar back up storage tanks also are more involved than a typical tank water heater, but our technicians are trained to handle this installation. One more note, when you purchase your heater from us we extent the warranty to handle parts and labor as well as the tank for six years, ten years or lifetime, your choice. Chuck Detari

The entire transaction went extremely well. I called on a Saturday at 12:30 pm and was really worried that I might not be able to get somebody out on a Saturday. I was greeted in a friendly manner. I explained what the problem was and was told that it could be repaired today...HOORAY!!! I recieved an e-amil with the technicians name and the approximate time to expect him (between 3:00 pm and 6:00 pm). Bobby showed up at 5:00 pm. He looked at the broken Hose Bib and explained the 2 options for repair and gave me an estimate for each option. He completed the repair by 6:00 pm and I was extremely pleased to have the work completed in a timely manner and so professionally.

I waited for 2 hours today (08/12) to get the work done, they came finally at around 10 AM and started giving me different price quote and they refused to perform any work. So they have left. When i schedule the order with the plumbing company, i explained to then what needs to be done. Please refund the money to my card.

We are sorry for any confusion, the home own scheduled to have some sinks and a tub caulked, but when the technician went to the home he realized the home owner though we could use caulk to repair leaks in the plumbing which is not the case. His coupon is fully refundable through Angie's List. This is a prefect example of why we have to inspect in person our clients plumbing issues. If you need help with your refund call the 800 # on your membership home page. Chuck Detari

Thank you for your business and the review. Tank water heaters have a sacrificial anode rod which protects the tank from corrosion. The life expectancy of the tank is eight to twelve years and three to five for the anode rod. So the rod should be replaced every three to five years to help extend the life of the tank. The rod should be inspected during the annual flush of the tank (recommended by manufacturer). Chuck Detari

I called the provider before I purchased a deal. He would not disclose how much he would charge but did recommend purchasing the deal. Once the workman came he pulled out a binder with set pricing. I felt he was charging way too much for the work I needed - replacing a bathroom faucet. I would have appreciated the provider giving this set pricing over the phone with the understanding that it could cost more once they see the job. If he had done so I would not have wasted his and my time.
Description of Work: The provider did not complete any work because we could not agree on a price.

Thank for for taking time to write a review. If we give you a price over the phone for removing an existing faucet and installing a new one, then the technician sees the project and realizes you need additional work and gives you a new price you could accuse us of low balling to get to your home, so instead we charge a $29 dispatch fee, see your job in person and give you a guaranteed price with the best service and longest warranty in town. I feel this is the fairest way to preform in home plumbing services. All our technicians have pasted a background check (every year) and have a photo ID that we can email to you if you wish. We use shoe covers and red rugs to protect your home. All of our techs are well trained, polite and ready to help. We schedule calls in two hour windows and call when the tech is on the way or going to be late. I hope your project gets done correctly. Chuck Detari

Chuck's Plumbing came out on a previous special where we paid $115 for $200 of plumbing services. During that visit they cleaned out hair that from the bathroom sink drain and cleared a clog we were having in the kitchen sink. A few days later the garbage disposal went out and a technician from the company came out to see if by chance it was related to the work they had just done. As it turns out that the garbage disposal needed replaced, which had nothing to do with the previous work (just a unfortunate coincidence). In addition, there was lots of blockage from debris in the back pitch lines and the technician cleared that out too. Our service technician was very polite and professional and made sure that everything was completed to our satisfaction. I highly recommend using Chuck's Plumbing for all your plumbing needs.

We recently moved into our home and have watched the water bill exponentially rise over a 2 month period - with no obvious leak. As we were getting ready to call a plumber to come help us identify where the probable leak was, we were "fortunate" enough to see water pooling in our garage - immediately underneath our new 80 gallon water heater. Chuck's was at our house within 24 hours (acceptable to us, as the leak had been going on for so long). Toilets and sinks were looked at for leaks, in addition to addressing the obvious leak in the garage. The leak in the garage was investigated thoroughly - the leak was adjacent to the laundry room, so that was checked; and, as mentioned, water was pooling under the water heater, so that was checked as well. No obvious leaks, so we had to move forward with looking in the walls and under the floor - this involved moving the 80 gallon water heater... Thankfully the leak was quickly identified just under the garage floor - 2 pipes were broken and repaired. The concrete was repaired and the water heater re-attached. All this took place between 9am and 5pm. We were very thankful for it to be done within just a day. We were very pleased. Also of note, Chuck's replaced the above mentioned water heater. My husband and I discovered one morning that the water for the shower was not heating up...a most unwelcome discovery in the home of 6 - with 4 of those people being under the age of 5. With such a large family, we needed a larger water heater. Chuck's was at our house within an hour and had the newer, much bigger water heater installed before the end of the day. We had the same technician both times and he was great. He took his time each time he was here making sure we understood all our options, and never pressured us to make a decision. And, with 4 young children we always appreciate people who are at least kind to them. This technician (not sure if I can name him - I would if I knew it was OK!) was very kind to our children, showed them what he was doing, didn't mind them watching him. He helped make some difficult & expensive days a little easier to handle.

They did extensive work for me. Bob installed a whole new plumbing system in the master bath, putting in 2 new sinks where there once was one and installing a new toilet as well. He also remounted the old toilet in my guest bathroom after I had a new tile floor installed. He did new faucets on all of my sinks in the bathroom and kitchen, and installed my new dishwasher and garbage disposal. He did a great job.
