They asked lots of questions about what happened in what order before the problem showed up. Then they checked all the spots, moved outside and found the sewer line, then hooked up the big plumbers snake and ran it in and chewed thru the frozen and clogged clog and cleared it then put cleaning crystals in the pipes in the house to clean any remaining sludge from the lines. Told me to call if there were any future problems but said they didn't expect any. They flushed all toilets and ran all water faucets to make sure they were clear. I am very very pleased with the speed of service and their professional attitude. And they were very nice as well. Side comment: I called this morning at 9:30, they arrived at 1:30 and were done and gone by 2:00....awesome service

I first received a quote from Buds Plumbing for $658 to fix my bathtub drain. I got a 2nd opinion from Hoffman Plumbing and decided to go with them. I was able to have a new garbage disposal installed ($250) and a bathtub drain fixed ($330) for a total invoice price of $550. Buds told me it was going to take 2 men half a day to complete the job. Hoffman Plumbing completed the job in 1 hour with 1 man completing the tasks. He showed up on time and was professional. I recommend Hoffman Plumbing.

Called the company at 8 am and they said they would have someone right out. I waited around the house all day and finally got a call at 8pm as I was putting the kids to bed. Who wants a plumber at their house after 8 pm?

Response from Altstadt Hoffman Plumbing
[removed member name] we apologize for the delay in getting a service crew to your home this weekend. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. Altstadt Plumbing has a deep commitment to customer service and satisfaction, and we invite you to call us so that we can have the opportunity to right the situation. This past weekend, we received a very high number of emergency calls due to the weather: with a wind chill of -20 degrees, our entire team was out working until midnight repairing broken and frozen water pipes in order to save our customers’ homes and valuables. We apologize that it took until 8pm for you to get a call back, but we were fielding calls in the order that they were received, and sometimes a visit can take longer than expected since we never know what we’re getting into until we arrive at the home or business and assess the situation. Please call us at your earliest convenience so that we can help you.

I had checked on several companies including on that had given me a quote and started the process. Unfortunately, they contracted their excavation and were at the mercy of that company so they couldn't get back us for three weeks. We didn't have three weeks as this was a rental and renters don't need to be living with backed up drains. Hoffmann plumbing, primarily because they do their own excavation, were able to get to this job the next day and complete it before I could have even gotten someone else there to give another quote.

Jeremy with Hoffman Plumbing arrived and got right to work! He listened well and answered all of our questions. Jeremy recommended that we change out our antique toilets but was not pushy about it. Which in the long run would save money on our water bill. Jeremy suggested a few different brands for when we were ready to change out the toilets. We can sleep tonight knowing our problem has been fixed! We definitely will use Hoffman plumbing again!!!!

The installation of new sewer line went great. However, they really made a mess of both front and back yards with "mini-excavator". Will be working on the yard well into winter, and then some. Before job started they did say I could get a quote on seeding where the trench was located but that's really not the problem. It's all the tire tracks that the excavator made. Oh well, will just add this to my "TO DO LIST".

The process went very smoothly. I purchased the toilets and faucets. Hoffman brought the water heater and all other equipment needed. The estimate was significantly less than the estimates from other highly rated Angie's List companies in our area. The plumbers were efficient and nearly completed all the work in a day. I would hire them again without question.

I called Hoffman Plumbing on a Thursday and said we needed a new air bladder for our well. The woman in the office requested the serial number of our old air bladder, so she and I talked on the phone two or three times until I finally found the number. Glen arrived the next morning, as agreed, with an air bladder that was a duplicate of our old one. He replaced the air bladder efficiently, in about one-half hour. We received a bill a couple of weeks later, and we thought the price was reasonable.

Everything flowed (pardon the pun) wonderfully. When I called them they couldn't get to me until the next day (which was fine), but a couple of hours later their office called and said they had a cancellation and they could be there in about an hour...which they were. The technician replaced part of the old cast iron pipe with a new section of PVC pipe. The location of the pipe was in very close quarters, but he managed to get the old pipe cut and the new one installed in about an hour. Great work, great technician, great office staff, and, best of all, a great price. I will without question use them again as they actually exceeded my expectations. Nice job, Hoffman Plumbing!

Initially, we had a leak we were unable to locate. We searched Angie's list and contact Bud's Plumbing and Hoffman's Plumbing to determine what was wrong and give us an estimate. Bud's Plumbing was running late, and we ended up having both the Hoffman's representative and Bud's representative on site at the same time. Hoffman's Plumber looked under our sink and quickly started looking at our dishwasher; which is where the leak was coming from. He told us what needed to be done and gave us an estimate. He stated to work after we agreed on the estimate. He unhooked our dishwasher; capped the water source, and took our dishwasher out side until our insurance company representative could come and assess the damage and pick-up our dishwasher. Bud's plumber looked under our sink and went out side to look under our house. Bud's learned of the dishwasher leak from Huffman's plumber and provided an estimate as well. Bud's estimate was higher, but not more than $35.00. But, $35 will put gas in my tank. I feel sure had he continued his assessment, he would have found the leak as well. However, this plumber did not look at the dishwasher after looking under the sink; he went out to look under the house. Whereas, the plumber from Hoffman's, immediately went from looking under the sink to the dishwasher. Due to the unknown "leaking dishwasher" we had 3/4 of our kitchen floor damaged by water. During the time the Water damage company was working to dismantle and move out cabinets, a water line to our sink was broken. Thus, we immediately called Huffman again. They were out promptly, capped the water supply to the kitchen sink and water supply to the ice maker and didn't charge anything. All he said was give us a call when all the work is done and well get you taken care of. Which we did. Excellent work for a reasonable price and professional workers. If we need work of this nature in the future, we will be contacting them.
Description of Work: Located source of water leak very quickly; the dishwasher. Unhooked the dishwasher and carried outside. Capped off the water source going to the dishwasher until we could contact our insurance agent to determine what the next steps would be. Returned after water damage repair completed and hooked up our new dishwasher, sink, garbage disposal, and refrigerator. Hooked up everything professionally and correct. The person who hooked up our ice maker years ago, hooked it up below the shut off valve...imagine that! It was by the grace of god, we didn't have problems with that!
