We used Angie's list to pick the company, listed with A rating, but was disappointed with the exorbinant prices. We had planned to have them do additional work, but the price quotes were so high that we declined the rest of the repairs. The work was done very quickly.
Description of Work: We had purchased two shower heads and called Red Cap to install them and to perform a few other repairs. The cost of installing the showerheads alone was $129. The other jobs were to snake a shower drain and adjust a faucet. The total came to $316 minus the Angie's list $25 coupon.

Homeowner called at end of a weekday and was able to schedule an appointment for the next morning. However, due to a conflict, homeowner had to reschedule for the following day and this was handled by Red Cap. The plumber, Chris, was prompt, cheerful & courteous. Estimate given and work approved and performed on same day. Dirt & debris kept to a minimum and tidily cleaned up afterward. Plumber does not do gypsum board and tile work repairs, but the tiles were saved and given to owner. Company warranty their work for one year.
Description of Work: Repaired top of shower plumbing riser in exterior wall. Four wall tiles & 5/8" gypsum board were required to be cut out to access the riser.

I greatly appreciated their honesty. Another company had me make repair after repair without resolving the issue, and Red Hat was very good and open about my options. They are prompt, professional, and punctual. I have switched all of my business to them, and will continue to use them.
Description of Work: They told me that a long-standing toilet leak that I had experienced was due to natural deposits in the toilet. They replaced the toilet, and completely eliminated the leaking issues.

We contacted two companies for estimates for the work listed above. We chose highly rated companies listed on Angies List for both estimates. Both came within a day of contacting them and both were very professional, personal and thorough. Both offered free estimates. Red Cap Plumbing usually charges for their estimates except waives the fee to Angies List customers. The other company's representative writes the estimate but usually does not perform the service. The Red Cap Plumbing company's representative was the actual technician who would perform the service. Red Cap Plumbing's estimate was approximately $800 cheaper than the other company which included an $84 fee that provided a 15% discount on the current service and any additional future service for a year. This would also provide a complete inspection of our home's entire plumbing system to include maintenance service on our water heater that could be scheduled anytime within a year. In addition, it provided a preferred customer status that would move us ahead of new customers when scheduling any future service. The technician and company both called before arriving and were prompt. The service was completed when promised, the technician did not take a break the entire day including skipping lunch, would take the time to explained what he was doing when asked and thoroughly cleaned up after completing the service including moving things back that were moved to gain access in order to perform the work. Our technician's name was Mike and I would highly recommend him and will request him when/if I require any future plumbing service.
Description of Work: We had hot and cold water lines installed and a 4" vent pipe and drain line run to our attached shed for a washer/dryer. We also had hot and cold water lines run to an outside area of the home to mount and hook up an outdoor shower fixture along with a cold water hose bibb/faucet in the same general area. In addition, the technician installed a second main water shut off valve.

I really appreciated that John took the time to give me complete information, to treat me as a valued customer - even though I was clearly only a potential customer. I ultimately chose to go with the company that provides my propane because they deal with propane all the time and although I trusted Red Cap would do a good job, it just made sense. I told John that I would definitely consider using Red Cap in the future because of my positive experience. I felt his price was fair (one of his competitors gave me a quote that was DOUBLE Red Cap's) and in fact, it was very comparable to what I ended up paying.
Description of Work: I was in need of a hot water heater after the failure of two electric on-demand units. On day one of the drama, John from Red Cap took the time to explain the details of installing a propane tankless unit (I can't use a traditional water heater - no room for the tank in the house) and immediately had a tech come out to give me a quote. I had some issues to work through and for the interim, got my current electric unit working - for about 8 hours. I called John back on the morning of day three after the "new" electric unit also died and he worked with me to provide a small unit (my house is only 900 sq ft) that would be suitable but would not cost quite as much.

Our kitchen sink clogged while the dishwasher was running. I called Red Cap and made an appointment for the next day. The plumber was courteous, prompt and cheery. He gave us an estimate and unclogged the sink. He advised that the disposal was rusty and worn, so we authorized replacement. He had the part with him, and replaced it on the spot. Red Cap's prices are a bit high, but the work was excellent. Thanks for a job well done.
Description of Work: Our kitchen drain was clogged. Red Cap cleaned the drain and discovered our disposal was not working properly. Red Cap also replaced the disposal.

The man who came out was terrific. He fixed the problem in 4 minutes! Now the new hose has a lifetime warranty, so I do not have to worry about that in the future. In the past, I had the same problem, but I did not receive the information from Angie's List at that time. The best part about it was that I called them in the morning, and he was there within a couple of hours or my call. Overall he was terrific. I would highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: My toilet tank blew a hose and there was water all over the place. I attempted to fix it myself. I then decided not to mess with it. I went on to Angie's List and pulled up Red Cap.

Their work was excellent. I thought they were a little high on their price, but they gave me a discount. I had already bought the hose and put it on the heater, but wasn't sure of what I was doing so I called them. I might shop around for the price if I needed plumbing work to be done in the future.
Description of Work: The plumbing company replaced a valve and a flexible hose on my water heater and replaced a spigot on my bathtub last year.

The repairman came out to look at installing a water filter and instant hot we moved with us. He wanted me to order all new parts because they weren't warranty able (even though not broken). Quoted me $250 to install it, which is very excessive. Basically, he tried to sell me a replacement instant hot that is not broken because he couldn't warranty the tubing. Was told by manufacturer parts are available at plumbing stores, but repairman insisted they are not. Not sure what to believe. Also quoted me $100 more to perform a service I had completed last week -$185 to install new faucet when I paid $85.
Description of Work: Just estimate. Paid $29.95 for estimate.

Chris King was great. He was knowledgeable and professional. He was very neat and clean. He was on time and even helped brainstorm other ideas about solving problems around the house. He is very quiet worker, he just gets the job done. Red Cap has a policy where technicians have to wear shoe protection when entering the home which is very nice. I will certainly use Chris King again and highly recommend him.
Description of Work: He pulled up a toilet and checked for leaks. He found the seal had deteriorated. He re-sealed the toilet and replaced the flapper. We have a contract with Red Cap plumbing and the fees reflect the contract price.

It went great. He had to wait a few minutes for the granite guys to drill the holes but was very nice about it. Explained everything afterwards. Was clean and polite. I thought the price was pretty high but have not had to hire a plumber in quite a while so I don't have a comparison.

I have 3 bathrooms and all of the flushers are gold. When they replaced one, it was a chiped one that did not match the others, they said it would have been $50 more for the gold. He was supposed to give me a written warranty on the work but he didn't leave me one.
