Rants Plumbing Inc

Really nice guy. Informative. Quickly confirmed issue, removed sweat-solder drain, replaced valve and tested repair, even called up later to confirm it was all working satisfactorily. If--when--I need a plumber again, I'll call John!

Never returned any of my calls despite multiple messages over 4 days in attempting to get a call back. Even asked that they call back even if just to let me know they couldn't do the work but no call backs. I called this company because it was so highly rated but am extremely disappointed. Called another plumber today & they'll be out to do fix my kitchen sink drain tomorrow.

Plumber installed backup boiler to existing system which did not work properly, he then proceeded to say the boiler he installed was wrong for the system and could be torn apart if left, so he needed to remove it as soon as possible. He then came and removed the boiler and left stating that he had no intentions of returning. Upon removing the boiler he created a leak in the system that another plumber will have to repair. When contacted he stated that he would not be returning to remedy the leak. The work started on 12/1/14 I was told it was a two day job. He finished in 12/15/14 and no showed us for 4 days without a phone call. Throughout the experience John was only on time once - the second day. THIS IS THE WORST EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD WITH A SUBCONTRACTOR OF ANY SORT.

Finding a good plumber here is rare. John does an excellent, professional job. Highly recommended!

He was a very nice man and did a good job.

The service was great - he showed up quickly and fixed the problem in a snap. He was professional and very nice.

They were fine. He was very good and quick about it. As I remember, it wasn't that expensive. I don't have anybody from Angie's list that wasn't very good.

Mr Rants did an excellent job at a reasonable price. I will certainly call upon him again.

John came promptly the first day and diagnosed our problem (gas valve replacement for a water heater). He was only here 10 minutes and left to find the part. I asked to pay the bill, but he told me "Not today". He called back later in the week to get the job done. When John came, it took him 20 minutes to install. I asked for the bill, but he told me he had to calculate it and would send it. When we got the bill he charged us 3 1/2 hours of labor @ 80.00 an hour. He calculated 2 hours of driving time and 1/2 hour to "find the part" which calculated to 280.00 and that's not time at my house. I felt that he was taking advantage of us especially when calling other services around. PLEASE get a quote before using Rant's Plumbing! It was only 20 minutes on Google Maps from his business address to my house. I called and disputed the price. John stated he would give me 10% off, but it is still a very high bill for what was done. I always pay my bills and have no problem paying for the valve, rate of a service call and the time he spent to install the valve. However, 160.00 to drive to my house twice because he didn't have the part and 40.00 to "find the part" seems dishonest to me. Especially since the labor which was only 1/2 total at my house and the labor charge (280.00) was more than the 230.00 gas valve. I told John that I hoped that he would be up front with his next customers so they wouldn't be surprised with a bill like ours. WOW!

He did everything I asked and his repairs are holding very well. This was probably a little more expensive than usual because he had to do a 50 mile round trip for this job.

Provider was extremely prompt, offering to come over to the house an hour from my call. Professional service with all the correct tools/supplies with him. Highly Recommend for those needing home plumbing work. I will definitely use Rants again in the future.

Never showed...when i finally called almost 3 hrs afer the scheduled time, they said there wasn't any paperwork indicating I had an appointment. Then how did I know about some guy named John that was going to stop in Wednesday morning after the Labor Day weekend at 8am. Not only did i make a note of this date and time, so did my relief. Then John himself called and again said they had nothing showing an appt for our company (like I was lying about it) but would try to make it out in the afternoon. No thanks, I'll pass and pay someone elsethe big bucks it's going to take to finish this job!

I liked the fellow but he just didn't keep it together.

Plumber replaced old, bad valve with new shut-off valve. Plumber did work in a timely manner, replacing the valve with a superior product. Some welding was required, and so this homeowner could not have done the work.

It went well. It was a big relief to get rid of the gunk clogging faucets.

Showed up promptly and did great job

They were great. They were here right on time when they said that they were going to be. They were very friendly and they got the job done really well and quickly.

I had an excellent experience with Rants Plumbing Inc. They were very good. Everything was just fine, very good.

He did a beautiful job. He was always on time. I have no complaints about him.

My kitchen drain starting leaking the night before I had to leave town. I called John while out of town and arranged an appointment with him the day after I returned. He called before he came and actually got there a little earlier than expected.He had to reassemble drain pipes and replace one metal gasket. It took him about 10-15 minutes for something I tried for 2 hours to fix myself. Would definately call him again. Appreciated his discount for Angies's list memebers. Still wish it would have cost a little less. I haven't had to use a plumber for awhile so I suppose he charged the going rate.

I called the company. They fixed the problem the same day for a reasonable price.

He is very good and reasonable. He also cleaned up my mess.

Came right out the same day I called and got it done.

Great response to call and service request. Listened to my needs, fixed the problem and eliminated the need for any additional parts purchases. Will definitely use their service again for the next job which is already in the planning stage.

Very honest and responsive... Could have charged us more but did not.
