I engaged YMC for 2 jobs. I was unhappy with both the quality and price of the both jobs. I had 2 leaky sinks, and the total bill to fix was $1,000 total. The techs visited multiple times, so I received multiple service charges and in the end, I believe I was overcharged for labor. In reviewing the (2nd) invoice, I was charged for 4.5 hours of work when the tech was only there 45 min. When I asked about that I was told that the tech spent 3hr 45min hours driving to different supply warehouses looking for parts ( a pre-rinse spray hose). It seemed very excessive to me at $90/hr. Can't a tech call around for a particular part instead of driving around town to random supply warehouses? Further, I am already experiencing problems with one of the sinks again. Normally I would call the previous plumber who fixed it but I will not do that this time as I am afraid of getting overcharged again. I used YMC because of their "A" rating on Angie's List, but I do not think it is justified based on my experience with them. I will not use them again.

The job was done efficiently. However I don’t agree with company policy that the couldn’t fix the problem they had to put all new insides of the toilet when all I needed was a flapper. I thought the charge was also a bit high

Plumber was here within the hour. He needed to order parts, shut off the water to my sink, returned with parts, fixed faucet. I am very pleased. He was very pleasant. I love Angies List. Have been a member for years.

Response from YMC Inc
We are based in Meridian, Idaho so it would not be cost effective for us to go to [Removed Member Location] unless we have someone in the area. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Great! Darren was prompt, efficient and professional. He had the drain connected and fixed in a short time and I'm very happy. I had depended on YMC before for plumbing and was pleased with the work they did. I feel I got responsive, courteous service and plan to use them in the future. Their quotes are honest and fair. I will heartily recommend to friends and neighbors.

We are very happy with his work replacing the old water heater with a new more energy efficient one. However, the next day our tenant reported the problem was not fixed, and they still have the same problem that shower does not always get hot water. So we later found out the problem was the shower hot water mixer.

Wow! It was a big job and he got it all done and cleaned up in one day. He took the kitchen cabinet apart, cut into the wall, replace the pipe in the wall and about another 10 feet of pipe in the crawl space, and then he put it all back together again. I was expecting it to take a couple of days at least, but he was done by 3 pm.

I received a call from AJ at YMC about the A/C failure. It was 99 degrees that day. He told me weekend service would cost extra and there would be a service call charge to diagnose and fix the A/C. The first thing he asked me was what had happened. He asked me since I was able to install a new thermostat, was I willing to answer a few questions? Basically, he had me access the equipment behind the "not customer serviceable" panel. All that was wrong was the $0.50 blade 30 amp fuse was burned out. He told me how to replace it and then confirmed what wires should be hooked up on the new thermostat. EVERYTHING WORKED IN MINUTES! AJ was great and it only took 5 minutes on the telephone to fix a simple problem. He saved me hundreds of dollars worth of repair and a service call. I truly wish YMC had more techs like AJ, who are willing to help a customer save time and money when it was a simple fix. Many other companies would send a tech out at $250 to fix a $0.50 fuse.
Description of Work: Our central air conditioning unit failed on a Friday night, when I put in a new thermostat. After looking online, I found out the original builders of this home did not install the traditional fuse box/circuit breaker outside by the A/C fan unit. I was unable to find any fuses, even after taking off the access panels for all the equipment, inside and outside the house. My home warranty provider told me since I had installed a new thermostat, they would NOT cover any repairs on the A/C, since the warranty does not cover "failed repairs".

They were unwilling to give a free estimate. I do not know this company or the area, so I want to get several estimates to get the best service and price possible. I do not have the extra funds to spend on estimates I may not use. I cancelled my appointment for Monday, 7/11/16, since they want me to pay for coming to look at my house. Where I come from in California, companies give FREE estimates since there is a large pool of contractors to choose from.
Description of Work: I called for an estimate on installing a gas line for a dryer and oven. Was advised they charge $36.00 to come out to look at my house. IF, and only if, I go with their service, will the $36 be applied to the work done. We just moved to the Caldwell, ID area and bought a new home to move into as of July 9th.

Very well. Not a complaint at all.
Description of Work: We called on Friday morning for our recurring kitchen faucet leak. We were promised an afternoon fix and Bob arrived by 1:00. He replaced the cold water shut off under the sink. We decided it was time for a good fix, so we had him install a new faucet (which we purchased) that was a proven brand and style for longevity.

He called before he came over and showed up on time. He went under the house and took measurements of what was needed. He told me what the cost would be and I gave him the go-ahead to do the job. He left to get the parts needed and was back in no time to start the job. It took him about three hours to get the parts and complete the job. He carried away all the old flex piping and cleaned up the area. Brian was very professional and courteous in his time spent with me. I would most certainly tell others about my experience and tell them to use YMC. In the end the cost was under what was quoted to me.
