Well the service and repair went relatively well but the price......Yowza! We had another plumbing company come out recently because we thought it was leaking again. They did the same exact thing but only charged $70.00. Another issue we had is that we had called Jim out a few weeks before for the same problem and he said he thought the problem was the tank on the back and changed some hardware in the tank and charged $200+ for that. Then we noticed it leaking a week later and that is when we called him out again and charged us $400.00 to reset toilet. While here we asked him how much he'd charge to replace our sink disposal and he quoted my wife a price of $450.00!! We have since asked the other plumber for an estimate and they quoted us a price of $250.00. Overall I'm confident that he is a good plumber but WAAAAAY overpriced.
Description of Work: Pulled toilet because it was leaking around the base and put a new waxring on and reset the toilet.

He did good work, but the appointment had to be rescheduled twice. While I would use him again if his overall service is not a little better I would not considered him a third time.

We received an estimate from Jim Wilson Plumbing to bring a new gas line into our home. We were planning a kitchen remodel and were debating between either a gas range and oven (which we'd had in our previous home and loved) and a magnetic induction range and convection oven. Jim Wilson plumbing was incredibly knowledgeable and we felt the quality (quality of proposed materials and versatility of the design) and value (price for quality/utility) of the solution they proposed was higher than other companies we received estimates from. However, we ultimately chose to go with the magnetic induction range, which did not require running the gas line. If we need plumbing in the future, however, Jim Wilson plumbing would be the first company we called.

Description of Work: I called another place first, but had to leave a message. Jim Wilson, carried a cell phone and was on the way to my house before the first place ever called back. He took a look at my sewage ejector pump and told me a few possibilities and quoted me a price right there. The work was done in less that half an hour. They had a 35$ coupon in the phone book that helped alot too. I had a very positive experience and will definately use if I have any further plumbing needs. (They removed my new injector pump that I had installed, but it wasn't working correctly. They could tell the something was blocking the propeller. They pushed it manually until it dislodged and then put the pump back in. They stayed and had me run water in downstairs sink to make sure it was going to continue to work correctly.) He also was very complimentry that I had been willing to try to install it myself. I had installed the previous one without any problems.
