Kyle came over and gave us an estimate. He advised us that if we could save him some time and us some money if we were willing to provide the labor to expose the sewer pipe. This task we agreed upon and with the help of his dad my son was able to do the job. Kyle and Drew showed up on time and performed the job in a timely and professional manner. On time and under estimate.
Description of Work: Our house had an improperly installed waste line. This line needed to be disconnected and reconnected to the sewer. The waste pipe is in a crawl space under the kitchen as is the access to the sewer.

Scheduling an appointment was easy. The plumber arrived promptly. No repair was needed to the toilet, so only the slow drain in the bath tub was cleaned out. I think $60 for that service is a little much, but I understand that there is a minimum charge for their services.
Description of Work: Cleaned out slow drain in bath tub.

Both plumbers were very nice, and they resolved my problem.
Description of Work: I called because there was a terrible sewer smell coming from my basement laundry room. I talked to the company owner about my problem, and he tried to resolve it over the phone for free, by recommending things I could do to clear the problem. (such as flushing the floor drain and sinks with clear water - things I'd already tried.) Two plumbers came over, and determined that our sump pump was broken. They replaced it, and also figured out that all the water that dumped into our utility sink was draining into the sump pump pit (which it's not supposed to). They correctly guessed that the sewer smell was because of all the non-clean water dumping into the sump pump pit, when the sump pump had stopped working. They also looked at a pipe that had been previously repaired/patched, and redid/cleaned up that patching.

15 min before scheduled arrival, plumbers called to say they were running late. They arrived within 15 minutes of scheduled time. They did the drum trap screening. I had arranged with Kyle to have them also install a toilet after cleaning the trap. They made a measurement, looked at the box and told me to return it because it could not be made to fit in the available space. They explained items on the bill.

They were somewhat responsive and very nice, seemed capable.
Description of Work: Plumbers came out to provide a bid on work. The bid was competitive, and I asked that they provide an e-mail of the bid for my records. They agreed to, but never followed through. They seem like straight shooters, but I chose to go with a contractor who provided me with a competitive bid via e-mail.

We just purchased a 1934 home where none of the maintenance plumbing had been done in years. We had a list of things that needed to be fixed. Right from the beginning, Kyle, owner of Dorenbos was very exact in how he operates, and I appreciated how honest he was with his pricing. I received five other quotes and his was the fairest. One thing that stood out with Dorenbos was that depending on how big the job was, two guys would be sent out. I had a list of things that needed to be fixed and was worried since I was being charged by the hour and what one plumber could do in an hour might take someone else 30 minutes. Kyle understood my concerns and said that he would have two guys do the work. So while one guy was working on unclogging and fixing the faucets, the other guy was installing the kitchen faucet and utility tub. They finished everything in four hours and this included running out to the plumbing supply shop for parts. The guys explained everything they were doing and why. I even learned a thing or two about plumbing. I was happy that they were able to save the shower faucets. They didn't even suggest replacing them as one plumber's quote I received said I would have to do. The faucets in our house are old (circa 50's/60's), but they still work and look really cool. In the basement shower, Bob was able to find replacement handles for the shower that went in line with the "retro" look of the bathroom. Drew and Mike, the plumbers who worked on our plumbing did a great job. I subscribed to Angie's List for the sole purpose of finding a plumber and I feel that the price of my subscription was worth every penny since I found a great plumbing company.
Description of Work: Fixed leaky shower stall faucet and unclogged drain in upstairs bathroom, unclogged bathtub drain on main level bathroom, fixed leaky shower stall faucet and leaky toilet in basement bathroom. Installed a new kitchen faucet, and removed and installed a new laundry-use utility tub.

Dorenbos is very professional and up-front with costs. The work done was first rate.
Description of Work: Our condo has a central garage area and the drains were all plugged up so no water could drain. Dorenbos performed about 2 hours worth of rodding out and cleaning so things freely flowed.

What was awesome about them is that I was pretty strapped financially and they worked with me on that. To save some money I ended up doing the excavation and exposing everything myself but they helped me and showed me what to do. Then they just came in and did the skilled plumbing labor. They weren’t the cheapest but they were the one’s that I trusted. The quality of their work was good. They showed up when they said they were going to. They were just perfect.

Everything went smoothly. They came out quickly to assess the repair, went out for parts, and returned promptly to install the new water heater. The work was done correctly, however they forgot to turn the hot water back on. When I returned home from work I was dismayed not have hot water yet, however my husband was able to determine what the problem was, and turned the valve to the hot water back on.
Description of Work: Our water heater had to be replaced after the basement flooded because the pilot light would not stay lit safely.

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR GIVING US A GOOD RATING. I THINK MY WORKERS DO A GOOD JOB, AND WILL CONTINUE TO GET BETTER IN WHAT THEY DO. I AM SORRY THEY THAT THEY FORGOT TO TURN THE WATER HEATER ON.

THANK AGAIN FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING. KYLE
