I DID NOT HAVE ACME FIX THE BROKEN SILLCOCK BECAUSE OF THE OUTRAGEOUS PRICE I WAS QUOTED (APPROXIMATELY $360). I HAVE SINCE HAD THE SILLCOCK REPAIRED FOR SIGNIFICANTLY LESS THAN WHAT ACME QUOTED ME. I PAID THE SERVICE CALL OF $20 FOR THE ESTIMATE.

I CALLED YESTERDAY TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TODAY. THEY WERE ABLE TO WORK ME IN THEIR SCHEDULE FOR TODAY. THEY CALLED ABOUT 20 MINUTES BEFORE THEIR ARRIVAL TIME SO THAT I COULD MEET THEM AT THE HOUSE. WE HAD BEEN HAVING SOME TROUBLE WITH THE DRAINS AND IT WAS THE SECOND CLEANING IN 8 MONTHS. THE TECHNICIAN CHECKED THE SYSTEM THOROUGHLY AND DISCOVERED A SMALL BLOCKAGE AND EXPLAINED THE REASON THAT IT HAD BECOME BLOCKED. PROFESSIONAL, INEXPENSIVE AND CLEANED UP AFTERWARDS.

I GRADED THE QUALITY OF THE WORK 'EXCELLENT' SIMPLY BECAUSE THE WORKMEN APPEARED TO BE KNOWLEDGEABLE AND APPARENTLY DID A GOOD JOB. THE REAL EVALUATION OF THE WORK WILL BE HOW LONG THE SEPTIC SYSTEM CONTINUES TO PERFORM SATISFACTORILY, AT LEAST TO THE END OF THE TWO YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD.
Description of Work: SERVICED MY SEPTIC SYSTEM WITH THE 'TERRALIFT' PROCESS. INCLUDED DIGGING FOR ACCESS TO THE DISTRIBUTION BOX AND THEN FINDING THE PIPE FROM THE SEPTIC TANK TO THE DISTRIBUTION BOX HAD COLLAPSED, REPLACED THE PIPE WITH NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE. THE ENTIRE SEPTIC FINGER SYSTEM WAS SERVICED WITH THE 'TERRALIFT' PROCESS.

THEY WERE AT MY HOUSE WITHIN AN HOUR. ED WAS VERY POLITE AND KNOWLEDGEABLE REGARDING THE PROBLEM. I HAVE USED OTHER PLUMBERS WHO CABLED A DRAIN FOR LESS MONEY, BUT ONLY CHOSE ACME BECAUSE OF THEIR GREAT RATING ON ANGIE'S LIST. IF I ONLY NEED A DRAIN CLEARED, I WILL PROBABLY CALL SOMEONE ELSE NEXT TIME. I LATER FOUND THAT A FRIEND HAD HER DRAIN AUGERED RECENTLY BY ANOTHER COMPANY FOR $75... I FEEL LIKE I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN HER ADVICE INSTEAD.

I ASKED THE TECHNICIAN TO REPLACE A BROKEN HANDLE ON THE SHOWER FAUCET, AS I COULD NOT REMOVE THE SCREW HOLDING THE FAUCET. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE ENTIRE FAUCET NEEDED REPLACED AS THE SHAFT WAS DEFINITELY STRIPPED, THIS TURNED OUT NOT TO BE THE CASE. IT IS SAD WHEN AN EXPERIENCED PLUMBER KNOWS LESS THAN A HOMEOWNER. WHAT STARTED AS A VERY SIMPLE INEXPENSIVE PROJECT TURNED INTO AN EXPENSIVE AND VERY MESSY DISASTER. FYI, THIS IS THE FIRST NEGATIVE REPORT THAT I'VE WRITTEN.

THEY BID AT THE ABOVE COST, THEN WHEN THEY DUG DOWN AND HAD BOTH THE WATER AND SEWER LINES BROKEN, THEY CAME TO ME AND SAID IT WAS GOING TO BE $800 DOLLARS MORE. HE HAD TOLD ME BEFORE THEY STARTED THERE WOULD BE NO ADDITIONAL COST. THEY ALSO LEFT MY YARD IN A TERRIBLE MESS, WITH LARGE HOLES AND SUCH. THEY ALSO BURIED MY WATER METER. I WILL HAVE TO HAVE MY ENTIRE FRONT YARD RE-GRADED AND RE-LANDSCAPED. THEY DID NOT REFILL THE HOLES THEY DUG COMPLETELY AS THEY SHOULD HAVE.
