Description of Work: They removed the faucets from our old sink (we called them after trying to do it ourselves) and installed them in our new cabinet sink. We had to call them again to correct the hot water faucet handle alignment and they came very promptly and fixed it.They put down a drop cloth, cleaned up after themselves and were very professional.

Description of Work: They corrected a leak in my new bathroom as the contractor did not install the plumbing correctly. They tightened a fitting under the bathroom sink that was not tightened. They had to replace the new shower drain as it was cracked. Also, had to cut a hole in my master bathroom wall to solder the copper pipe in my new remodeled bathroom shower. The bill was sent to the contractor for not installing correctly.

Description of Work: I called them on the morning of 11/20 after waking up to a sewage back up in my basement...YUCK. Within 45 mins of my call, I was assured that someone would be sent to my house that same morning. About 2 hours later of my initial call, I had two men working on the back up and one hour after they arrived, the problem was solved. They were punctual and knowledgable and I was so scared of what this may cost but it turned out to only be $124. Very thankful for their prompt service and glad to have found them top rated on Angie's list, that is how I found them!

Description of Work: The cast iron vent pipe had rusted, causing water to come through the living room ceiling. The pipe was pulled from the basement and out the roof of our two story farmhouse - a heavy and messy task. Because several walls and the living room plaster ceiling had to be cut cut out for access, the mess could have been so much more. The area was sealed off with plastic and Brian even vacuumed after finishing the job!! That's unheard of in the plumbing business. Courteous and cleanliness were exemplified each day and the job is complete. So happy with Reading & Sons!

Great job and will use them again.
Description of Work: I had a leak in the bathroom fitting and the shut off in bathroom did not stop the leak. I tried the main valve and it would not turn off the water completely in the house. I had to have the water company turn off the water at the street. I called Reading & Son after hours and they called the next morning and scheduled an appointment for later in the morning. They replaced the main valve and the bathroom fitting.

Description of Work: I had a pipe leaking in the basement and it was in a very tight spot. Reading and Son scheduled an appointment and the work was completed to my satisfaction. I have some old pipes and I am planning on them coming back to replace these pipes. I would recommend them.

Description of Work: Developed a pin hole in one my pipes and called for them to repair. They came out quickly and made the repairs. Because of the good service decided to replace some of the old pipes before I had another leak. They did a very good and thorough job.

Response from Reading & Son Plumbing Inc
Member, I did not refuse your service at all. We do service all of the Peoria area. If it is outside the city of Peoria, it is our practice to charge travel time. I informed you that when we have a plumber in the area we could piggy back the calls to save you travel time. You mentioned your kitchen faucet is leaking and you have a new one to replace it if it was unrepairable. You never mentioned urgency of water all over the floor. I'm disheartened over your ratings you gave us. You never gave me the chance before letting me go on the phone. We do strive for excellent customer service and I apolgize for any misunderstandings.
