This company is fantastic. The 2 man team arrived on the set day on time and all smiles. They cut, removed and disposed of all galvanized water lines and installed new copper line pipes.They also replaced outside sillcocks and piping that leaked like "Katrina" when turned on. Installed new basement fixtures and numerous valves for easy future remodels Replaced 50 year old builder errors, and repaired previous owner mistakes. Water pressure difference is very significant. Total clean up of all debris. Overhead pipes clamped and secure.The finished job is very neat and looks better than when house was built. I have no more fears of returning home to leaking pipes."Cadillac Plumbers", I am well pleased.

He arrived without calling first, and apologized for the error. The piping project was performed without problems and he cleaned up to my satisfaction. The company did honor their promise of a 10% senior discount which lowered the final bill from $600.00 to $540.00. I was happy with his work and professional, helpful attitude.
Description of Work: Replaced the galvanized piping system, between the water meter to the hot water tank, with copper tubing and associated valves.

This was a situation that occurred due to a gutter extension disconnecting which allowed water to run directly down in the same place on the ground over a period of time creating a sink hole. The dirt/mud liquified and seeped into the drain tiles which subsequently seeped into my sump pump basin. The basin was filled with mud which prevented the sump pump from operating since it is only designed to pump water - not mud. I called Aleck Plumbing and Tim Spears came out. I told him about the situation and he immediately checked the sump pump to see if it was operational. It was, but it was "gurgling" trying to push the mud out. He had to remove the sump pump, dig out 10 gallons of mud from the pump basin and the pipes, replace the sump pump with a new one and checked to make sure it was working. He also went outside to see what other water problems stemmed from the clogged pump. He provided me with a detailed list of items that needed correction in order for the water to run away from the building that I passed on to my Homeowners Association. He was very professional, pleasant, cleaned up the area when done and even arrived a little early, which was fine with me.
Description of Work: Remove mud out of sump pump basin; replace sump pump. Check to make sure pump was working properly.

These guys are the best. We use them frequently for all plumbing-related work, and we recommend them highly and frequently to people in need of a plumber. They are one of the few contractors that we will recommend enthusiastically and without reservation. Everything is always done right. They've probably done work on our house over 30 times over the last 5 years -- drains, sump pumps, water heaters, exterior drainage, etc. -- and rarely if ever have we had to call them back out. Fast to respond. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Can't recommend them enough.

Convenient scheduling; prompt arrival; explains work to be done & reviews after completed; very thorough; I've used them before. Did not shop around so can't speak to cost. They have taken care of several things I couldn't do myself and that is valuable to me.

Very prompt, did the job in less than anticipated time. Paul was very professional. I had a sewer back up on Friday night. I didn't want to pay emergency prices. I called Aleck Plumbing on Friday night and scheduled a Saturday Morning time. Paul was right on time, cleaned out our sewer line in less time than anticipated. I was able to make an important appointment on Saturday morning that I thought I would never make under the circumstances. GREAT JOB>

I made a decision to have the work performed by another plumber from Angie's List who prices were more reasonable.
Description of Work: I never used this company because their price quote was higher than I wanted to pay. This review was submitted in error and have been trying to delete it but with no success. The plumbing service was provided by another plumber on Angie's list who did an excellent job. Please do not based you decision on this review. I called them to get price quotes for the following: Ejector Pump (needed them to provide equipment and installation) Backup sump pump (I had purchased Backup pump from Home Depot and wanted it installed) Kitchen Faucet Installation All of there price quote
