Description of Work: Had the left kitchen sink drain reconnected to the drain piping. He rerouted the two kitchen sink drains to the the piping going down and replaced the drain pipes that were just about rotted out. He was a half hour late but we were informed that he was running behind. He worked quickly and efficiently cleaning up what little mess that he had made. I was very impressed by his total work ethic and professionalism. He also gave us an estimate for later work that has to be done outside when the weather gets warmer.

Thank you very much. I am sorry that we were running a little behind-we do our best to get there within our time window, as we value your time. Sometimes we do run into a little more (or sometimes, less!) on the job prior to yours and it can cause us to be a little off-but we try to avoid that of course! Thank you for your patience. We see such a variety of "interesting" plumbing drain designs under kitchen sinks, and love to straighten them out properly. We are glad things went well and appreciate both your business as well as your review on Angie's List.

Description of Work: Have had them out twice in the last 3 weeks (for separate issues). This was the faucet handle leaking on the bath tub. Very professional work. They are experienced, knowledgeable and respectful. They have bailed me out twice in emergency situations when other plumbers couldn't make it out for several days. I've switched to relying on them because of it.

Description of Work: They mis diagnosed the problem on two consecutive service calls, charging me $750 to fix what did not need fixing. On the second service call to fix what the first guy didn't fix, they charged me $60 to use a plunger on my toilet and say my toilet paper was too thick and soft. I suffered with a bad toilet for 6 more months after paying them $750. Before I hired another plumber to clean up their work, i called them again. The owner sent a third plumber that he promised was experienced. He did fix the problem on the 3rd try and six months of frustration.

Response from Goode Plumbing
When I saw this review and looked up the Member's history with us, I was very surprised to say the least. We originally went out because the Member was having an issue with his toilet not flushing well. One of our plumbers checked the toilet and all other fixtures in the bathroom out. It was an older toilet with worn parts and was the only fixture that was not draining well. We also found that the drain work that was in the house for the toilet was not properly done. However, it was determined that a complete overhaul of the toilet should resolve the issue. Shortly after the work was completed, he was having some issues with it flushing again so we sent one of our plumbers back who cleared the trapway. This was done in the middle of May 2013. This was the last I had heard from this Member until mid March 2014. He called and explained that we had been out the previous year to repair his toilet and it was still not working quite right. He said he felt he spent a fair amount of money with us, and would we mind having another look at it. We told him that would be absolutely no problem, and sent someone out the same day. My plumber did some extensive testing, and felt the best solution other than repiping the drain work, which would be pretty involved (we would have been glad to do it for him of course), that a new, different toilet with different flush specifications would most likely work. We looked around for a toilet that would fit this application, and located one, and installed it, again-the same day. I then called him to make sure he was happy with the way things turned out, and he said he was. So when I told him that there would be absolutely no charge for the new, installed toilet, I thought he would be even happier-and he indicated that this was indeed to his satisfaction. I did this because I felt he had already paid a fair amount of money to us, and that since the original job was not to his complete satisfaction, this was the right thing to do. We are indeed professionals that do our best to diagnose unusual problems. There are times that these diagnostic solutions can take certain steps or procedures, especially when plumbing in home was not done correctly and there may be hidden issues. We try to work with the homeowner to come up with a solution that is as least invasive as possible but will still work . In this case, we did have to try a couple of things to get this completed properly. We did not drag this out for 6 months-as soon as the Member called and said things were still not working well, we sent someone over in a very timely manner. When he was not satisfied with the original solution, we made it right and did not charge any money. I do feel bad that this was not resolved the first time, but I truly feel we handled things very professionally and properly in getting this situation taken care of.

Response from Goode Plumbing
As one can see by our hundreds of excellent reviews on Angie's List, I was very surprised to see this review. I looked up the customer's file, and found that this work had actually been done almost a year ago (April 2013), and that all indications were that she was happy with the work. This was a small repair-to replace some gaskets on some kitchen sink drain work, so the plumber we sent to do the work charged her a minimum service call. On top of it, she had a special coupon we were running on Angie's List at the time that brought her expenses down to very little. I did not understand why this would lead to a less than an "all A" review, I called the Member. She spoke very little English, and said that she really needed a handyman rather than a plumber, and was confused about why a plumber was sent. I explained that we were a plumbing company, and that even though a plumber did the work, with the coupon, a professional handyman most likely would not have charged her any less. She said that she was sorry, and did not really understand the grading system, but felt obligated to leave a review since she was asked to leave one by Angie's List several times. I was surprised to say the least that someone would leave grades that she did not understand, but unfortunately, in this case, this seems to be what happened.

Response from Goode Plumbing
Thank you for the review and your excellent rating of our work. I am a bit surprised at the grade that you gave me in pricing, however. I handled this service call myself, which was for low pressure in a bathroom sink faucet. The Member stated that he had tried several things himself in an attempt to get better pressure at this fixture, including flushing the valves and supply lines out (a good place to start, by the way), but to no avail. This was a "designer" faucet with a flush mounted aerator-not a standard, easy to remove aerator and they even trip some plumbers up. I work with a lot of unusual faucets, and knew how to take this one apart-which I did, and flushed the faucet out. Please know that while I admittedly was pretty fast with this, that is due to my experience with these particular faucets. Remember, a service all isn't just for my labor, it is for my training, experience, and knowledge as well! I also greased the part up for easier removal and showed the homeowner how to do this the next time to save himself a service call, and also spent some additional time looking at some shower projects that he had. I charged just a basic service call, which I honestly felt was very reasonable. I asked the homeowner if he was happy or had any questions, and he acknowledged that he was happy with the work and would be contacting us when he was ready for the shower project work. If anyone is ever not happy with ANY aspect of their service from us, PLEASE let me know-I can't fix it or explain why something is a certain way, or a certain price, if I don't know that you have an issue. My goal is your happiness with every part of your experience with Goode Plumbing. Thank you, Mike Goode

Response from Goode Plumbing
Upon seeing this Member's review, I called him, as I take any complaints very seriously-we really want to make our customers happy. When I hear of someone who isn't, it really means a lot to me that I find out what happened. As it turns out, this member needed some work to his boiler system. While myself and two of my other plumbers can do minor work on boilers, such as replacing a leaking radiator valve, we are really plumbers and not heating technicians. An appointment was made to have a look, when we really should have pointed him in the direction of a heating/boiler company. The member felt his time was wasted, which I can definitely understand. I am refunding his service call charge. On a positive note, the member does have some plumbing work he wants us to come back to do for him, which we appreciate very much.

Description of Work: Mike did a great job! We needed a disposal installed that required moving pipes and installing the electrical switch. Even though electrical work is not his area of expertise he handled it without any issues. He event went out to the store to get the necessary supplies for installing the disposal that were not included with our purchase. He also was able to fix our now functioning toilet. In addition to his work skills Mike was very pleasant and professional. We will call Goode Plumbing for future plumbing needs!

Thank you for allowing me to complete the work for you. I installed a food waste disposal supplied by the homeowner under a kitchen sink. Since there was no disposal previously installed, I helped with installing electrical supply to the unit including a water resistant switch. I also revised some water supply piping that was in the way, and installed new shut off valves for the faucet and dishwasher. The client was also having an issue with one of her toilets, resolved with a new, high quality Toto fill valve. Thank you again for having me in your home, and for writing this review.

Response from Goode Plumbing
I am sorry that there seems to be a communication issue. I am not sure, but I believe you are calling the wrong number for us. Monday through Friday during normal business hours, my regular receptionist answers the phone. After hours, including weekends, we have an answering service that sends me not only an email, but a text message as well. I have checked all of our phone records by using both your name as well as the phone number that you left us via email when you filled out your Angie's list coupon a few weeks ago. When we tried to contact you at the phone number that you provided on that form, it rings about a half dozen times, and then sounds like the phone is being picked up, but there is no one there. We tried initially to reach you at this number to set up an appointment and this happened-and it happened again today when I tried to reach you upon seeing the review. I have also left you an email, which has gone unanswered as of this writing. So, we are trying! I take every aspect of customer service seriously, and while, as humans, we are not always perfect, in this case I am not sure why you have been unable to reach us, or for us to reach you. Please call me anytime on our office number (773) 463-7858, or my cell, (773) 407-1884 as I would like to make up for any issue that may have occured on our end. Thank you, Mike Goode
