THE CONTACT PERSON ASSURED US THAT THEY WOULD HAVE PLENTY OF LINE. AFTER MAKING US WAIT FOREVER WITH SEWAGE SPEWING ALL OVER OUR HOUSE THEY SHOWED UP WITH ONLY 100 FEET OF LINE AND DID NOT OFFER TO GET MORE OR HELP US OUT IN ANY WAY.
Description of Work: WE ADVISED THE PERSON THAT ANSWERED OUR CALL THAT THEIR PLUMBER MUST HAVE 200 FEET OR MORE OF LINE TO CLEAN OUT OUR SEWAGE DRAIN. WE STATED THIS SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE WE HAD BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OTHER PLUMBERS NOT HAVING ENOUGH LINE.

HE OPENED OUTSIDE DRAIN ACCESS AND IT WAS OVERFLOWING. HE THOUGHT THIS STRANGE WITH ONLY 3 YR OLD HOUSE. HE FOUND MAIN LINE SEWER LID IN NEIGHBORS YARD AND OPENED WITH TOOL AND IT WAS OVERFLOWING. WE THEN WALKED UP STREET TO NEXT LID AND IT WAS FULL! HE TOLD ME TO CALL CITY SEWER MAINTENANCE, IT WAS MAIN LINE, NOT MY LINE THAT WAS PROBLEM. HE SHOWED ME WHAT TO DO WHEN CITY CLEANED THE LINE. WHEN I ASKED 'HOW MUCH?' HE SAID 'NO CHARGE'! HE DIDN'T EVEN CHARGE ME A 'HOUSECALL'!! THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE USED THIS COMPANY, BUT NOT THE LAST. I PICKED THEM FROM 3 IN THE PHONE BOOK, BECAUSE THEY HAD THE 'ANGIE'S LIST' ICON IN THEIR AD!
Description of Work: CALLED ON SATURDAY MORNING AND VERY NICE LADY SAID A TRUCK WOULD BE HERE IN AFTERNOON. SHE CALLED 20 MINUTES BEFORE ARRIVAL TO INFORM ME AND TELL ME PLUMBERS NAME.

NICK SMITH WAS OUR INSTALLER. HE WAS FAMILIAR WITH THE PLUMBING THAT WAS INSTALLED IN THE 70'S (OUR PLUMBING), AND I THINK THAT WAS HELPFUL WITH THE INSTALLATION REPAIR. WHEN WE ORIGINALLY HAD OUR PREVIOUS ICE MAKER INSTALLED, IT WAS NOT DONE CORRECTLY, WHICH IS WHY IT NEVER WORKED PROPERLY. ACME AND NICK KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. THEIR TRUCK WAS HUGE, HE HAD EVERYTHING HE NEEDED WITH HIM. GREAT JOB!
Description of Work: ACME WAS HIRED TO INSTALL AN ICE MAKER IN OUR NEW REFRIGERATOR (OUR OLD TUBING WAS FULL OF RUST!) ADDITIONAL PIPES AND CONNECTIONS WERE NEEDED BECAUSE OF THE CONDITION OF OUR OLD EXISTING PIPES & CONNECTIONS. NICK SMITH WAS A VERY NICE GUY. VERY PROFESSIONAL, KNOWLEDGEABLE, AND COURTEOUS. HE DID A FINE JOB, CLEANED UP WELL AFTER ALSO. WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THE JOB, AND HE GAVE US $10 OFF AND ANOTHER $10 OFF COUPON. A LESS THOROUGH PERSON MIGHT NOT HAVE REDONE THE PIPES, AND WE WOULD STILL HAVE HAD PROBLEMS.

I THINK THEY NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED. I WOULD BE VERY CAUTIOUS ABOUT USING THEM. MY GUESS IS THAT THEIR WORKMEN(PLUMBERS?) ARE 'ON COMMISSION' AND THUS MOTIVATED TO DO MORE THAN IS NEEDED AND TO CHARGE MORE THAN APPROPRIATE.
Description of Work: I HAD A KITCHEN FAUCET WITH DIMINISHED WATER FLOW. THE MAN WHO CAME ALMOST IMMEDIATELY TRIED TO PERSUADE ME THAT I PROBABLY NEEDED TO HAVE ALL MY PLUMBING IN THE CELLAR REPLACED, AS WELL AS A NEW FAUCET OFF HIS TRUCK WHICH SEEMED OVERPRICED. HE GLANCED AT ONE PIPE IN THE CELLAR AND MADE A CASE FOR URGENT NEED FOR TOTAL REPLACEMENT. I BECAME SUSPICIOUS AND TOLD HIM I THOUGHT I WOULD GET ANOTHER OPINION BEFORE I DID ANYTHING. HE INSISTED ON A $20. SERVICE CALL AND LEFT OBVIOUSLY ANGRY.

IT WAS ABOUT 6 MONTHS SINCE THE JOB WAS DONE. THE SEPTIC SYSTEM HAS BEEN WORKING AS EXPECTED. THEY WERE EXTREMELY COURTEOUS AND WHILE I WATCHED THEM DOING THE WORK WERE RECEPTIVE TO MY QUESTIONS. THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING, CLEANED UP WELL AND DIDN'T DAMAGE MY LAWN AT ALL. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!

SENT A LARGE MAN FOR THE ESTIMATE. SINCE THE WORK WAS IN A CRAWLSPACE, HE DIDN'T WANT TO GET DOWN TO REVIEW THE AREA. HE MERELY STUCK HIS HEAD IN THE ENTRANCE, WHICH DID NO GOOD. THEY STILL WANTED PAID FOR THE ESTIMATE PROCESS HOWEVER. VERY UNIMPRESSED

THE PERSON THAT CLEANED THE DRAIN DID A WONDERFUL JOB. HE EVEN SAVED US MONEY BECAUSE HE PLUNGED THE DRAINS INSTEAD OF SNAKING. WE HAD CALLED THE COMPANY TO LET THEM KNOW THAT WE NEEDED TO ALSO GET AN ESTIMATE ON PLUMBING NEEDS. THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO SEND OUT SOMEONE THAT COULD DO BOTH THE DRAIN CLEANING AND OUR SMALL PLUMBING JOBS. THEY SENT TWO PEOPLE INSTEAD OF ONE, THERE SEEMED TO BE SOME CONFUSION AT THEIR OFFICE. THE 2ND GUY STARTED WRITING A BILL, AND THEN I MENTIONED THAT THE OFFICE SAID THEY WERE SENDING ONE PERSON. AFTER SOME DISCUSSION, HE SIMPLY CHARGED IT AS A FREE ESTIMATE. THIS WAS A VERY CONFUSING TRANSACTION. I WOULD USE THIS COMPANY AGAIN, THE WORK WAS FINE, JUST A CONFUSING SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES.

GENTLEMEN WERE EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THE JOB THEY WERE DOING. THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONABLE. THE JOB WAS WELL DONE. I WOULD HIRE THEM AGAIN WITH NO QUESTION. MY ONLY CONCERN WAS THAT THE ESTIMATE THEY GAVE US DID NOT INCLUDE USE OF THE BACKHOE OR THE SEPTIC CLEANING TRUCK, WHICH TOTALED AROUND $500.
