It went well. I called the their office shortly after 8 AM and two plumbers arrived within 2 hours. They immediately recognized the problem and replaced the leaking valve. They wore masks, observed social distancing, and were very professional. (A different plumbing company had come the prior week, stated that I had a slab leak, quoted a price of $450.00 just to bring equipment to diagnose the problem, and then they did not return for the appointment they had made.) John Blitch Plumbing provided wonderful service, and I would certainly recommend them highly. I had never used them before, but I will call them if I ever need a plumber.

They were tenacious in solving the problem, and systematically identified the source of the clog and removed it. They came in $50 above "the simplest case" which this certainly was not. Very pleased. Will certainly call them first with any plumbing needs.

Blitch never showed up neither did the plumber or company call. I made the appointment a week in advance and checked on the day to ensure I was still on their books - I was. When I called at 5 p.m. I got their answering machine. It’s been a week and they haven’t returned my call.

Good job! The men showed up as promised. I had to perform some carpentry work for them as might be expected. The new sink opening did not quite match the previous unit. Also, the pass through door was too small for the new water heater. While other contractors might have left for another day, they worked with me on the timing to resolve these issues. The work was completed that same day!
Description of Work: We had several items including a new water heater, general toilet maintenance and a new kitchen sink to install.

John Blitch Plumbing was able to come out within a few days, and his two guys were courteous, professional, and got the job done quickly. They also made sure that the area around the work was clean before they left. Will definitely use them again if needed, and have recommended them to several friends.

Called them and about one hour later they arrived. Described the problem over the phone. Arrived when they said they would. Quickly repaired / replaced the badly leaking spigot, replaced another that had been causing trouble for some time and repaired the third faucet. Nice guys. A1 service. Thanks so much. Will call them again when the need arises.

We had a line blockage in the kitchen that had been not been fixed properly so we called John Blitch Plumbing. William came to our house, correctly analyzed the problem and made the necessary repairs. William and his assistant, Louis were were very professional and efficient. They were very careful, cleaned up thoroughly and gave us helpful advice and descriptive explanations. I will only use them in the future and strongly recommend them to anyone needing any type of plumbing work.

The master plumber, Ted, showed up on time and things seemed to start off well, but after he had been here for a few minutes he took a few minutes off to go pick up a helper. He assured us that although there would be two plumbers things would go much faster and it would not cost us more. It turned out that the plumber that he was picking up was his son-in-law who normally worked somewhere else, Henry's plumbing I was told, but wanted the extra work that day, and that's when things began to go down hill. Ted put his helper, Matt, about installing the four sink pop-up stoppers. I have had a couple of stoppers replaced before; it took a few minutes. These took Matt approximately two hours. When he had finished, two of them didn't work properly, that is, we discovered later that the stoppers wouldn't close to stop the water from draining out of the sinks. Ted let Matt do some of the work under the kitchen sink. When they left we discovered a leak under the sink. After Ted replaced the old shower head and handle the water flow to our newly installed shower head is weaker than it was. No way to demonstrate that difference, right? To Blitch's credit, Ted came back that evening to stop the kitchen leak. And another crew came back a couple of days later, the same day we called, and fixed the sink stoppers, so Blitch was quite responsive on follow-up. There was no work that required more than one plumber, in fact, there was nothing that they both worked on at once, so there was no need that I can see to bring on another less experienced plumber except maybe to help family. So even after Blitch's responsiveness to problems I am left with a negative opinion about Blitch plumbing.
Description of Work: The plumber installed two sink faucets, a shower faucet ad four sink stoppers.

The crew was amazing! None of the repairs were major, but we couldn't move into a house without working plumbing obviously. They had all the necessary parts on their truck, so they didn't have to leave to before finishing the job. The crew of two guys were knowledgable and friendly, and they were very good at communicating what they were doing and why. And before they left they completely cleaned up after themselves (there was quite a bit of water on one of the floors while they were working, and they mopped it up!). Since this initial job when we moved in, we have called them for other jobs. They have always come out either that day, or the next morning and we have always felt that they have given us a fair price, and explained everything to us. I would without hesitation recommend this company to someone else.
Description of Work: Fixed two sinks and toilets that were not working. The house had been vacant for two years prior, and needed some general attention.

Arrived on time. Completed the job in a reasonable amount of time. Very pleasant and informative.
Description of Work: I had an unseen leak. Two plumbing companies had already been out. One said it was in the line to the house from the meter and the other said it was under the slab in the kitchen and to call Blitch Plumbing to have their leak detector come out to pinpoint leak. I called. They arrived when they said they would. They found two leaks outside between the meter and the house. They began and completed the work in two days.

Could have been completed in one day and a lot less. Plumber, when I complained said the materials were 900 not 450 as originally quoted. He promised me a bill of materials with prices. He has not complied as yet. Too a 21/2 hour lunch and 1hour clean up. Could have finished in one day.
Description of Work: Took 8 hours work total for 1 plumber and 1 helper over 2 days to run a new gas line thru an attic. Approx 30 feet of pipe.

I used them for two to three and half years and they are the best. Everybody is expensive but their cost is reasonable as anybody else. They have been on time and they had done good job for us other than the ones we have used in the past.
Description of Work: I used John Blitch Plumbing for plumbing. We own some apartments and we own a house so we have used them probably ten times over the last two years because they don't need a permit. Previous time they had to do leak detection in one of the apartments and it was $1500 as they had to break up the floor to go down underneath and they did a good job but that was three years ago.

Very satisfied with final results and cost!! Again, they were super!
Description of Work: Professional, neat and impressive!! Would not hesitate to call them to repair any plumbing problems!! They promptly saw that tape or pipe fixture adhesive had never been placed on my shower and instead of ripping up the wall, they slowly proceeded to do a great job and saved us all heartache and mess! Super job, guys!!

Everything went far better than I had expected.
Description of Work: I had new granite countertops installed. Therefore I needed to reconnect the pipes for the new sink. I also had a new disposal and faucet installed, and had to reconnect the dishwasher. The plumber arrived on time, was very professional, cleaned up after himself, was very pleasent. I will definately use this company in the future should a need arise.

The attention paid to customer service by the office staff who returned my calls and scheduled the work, as well as the technicians who performed the services has been exemplary!
Description of Work: I used this company initially for a clogged drain in the laundery room of my new home. They were able to come out quickly and were on-time. When I inquired about a leaky outside faucet, they replaced it on-the-spot for a very reasonable fee. They also suggested other spigots to be replaced in my laundry area, and did so for a very reasonable rate. I called them soon after that when my water heater died. They came out quickly for an estimate, and quoted a very reasonable price for a better quality water heater than I originally had. Within 24 hours the new one was installed.
