Last night I discovered a stopped up drain was backing up into utility sink in basement. Called Gray Wolf this morning and had drain open and running again by 3pm this afternoon. Tech was knowledgeable and professional. Arrived on time and finished quickly. Will use them again for any plumbing problems I have

I found my sewer line had broke. That was on a Tuesday. My wife called Gray Wolf and they said they could get to it by Friday. They came out when they said they would, and fixed the broken line during a frigid ice and rainstorm, and at a very reasonable cost. The work was done well, and they cleaned up when they left. I also got a previous bid from them on a different job. They were the first to respond to the bid request and the first to show up to give an estimate. I hired someone else who was more available at the time, but I like the way Gray Wolf does business. I highly recommend them.

I did not have them do it - wanted to charge a minimum of 250 and more if they could not shut off the water (which is already shut off). I said, thank you for responding, I will get someone else.

Thank you for allowing us to address one of the most difficult questions asked by potential customers," how much is this going to cost?" This is always a challenge when going into an unknown situation. ALL customers are told upfront that they will be charged a service call, labor rate only for the time that they use and material. Much depends on the age of the fixtures, brand/type, and availability. When pressed for price, over the phone, customers that have conditions unknown to us are given a range of prices for the labor (best case, worst case). This particular call was for replacing leaking toilet stop valve and repairing an older type toilet. If all goes well not a difficult repair. It was explained that in order to replace that stop valve the main water would be shut off. If that valve fails to work properly, it too would need to be replaced before the toilet stop valve could be replaced. Finding repair parts for toilets that are older or of unknown brand (there are many available online and through DIY centers) can be a challenge. The customer would be charged for only what was needed and told before any repairs began. We apologize for the impression that the worst case would be the case for this customer.

Great. Got started later than anticipated but I was notified they would be here as soon as possible. Gary and Josh diagnosed the problem, fixed it and went the extra mile to install a new faucet to improve the water pressure that will go a ways to prevent further problems. Both gentlemen were professional, pleasant and accommodating. I would definitely use this service again.

On any home project, I like to discuss the work to be performed to get a feel for the company in addition to an accurate bid for services. Gray Wolf Plumbing not only gave me the best price, but I felt confident that they would do a good job. When I called for a bid, I had a nice chat about the company (family owned) and a very knowlegable description of the brand to be used as well as how the heater would be installed. The two young men who installed the heater were professional and pleasant, and answered any questions I had, as well as a couple of additional questions that could lead to future projects. I was very pleased with the process and the quality of work and would definately use them for future plumbing needs.

Tour. They came to do and free estimate. Said they would email the estimate that evening. It was not received so we called the next day. We're told he was still working on the estimate and would work on it on the weekend and email it to us. Three days later we have still not received the estimate. If they didn't want to do the job they should have just said so.

We would like to respond immediately to this review. The free estimate appointment was on Thursday late afternoon. We NEVER promise to provide a quote in 24 hours as we are a small family owned business and work in the field as well as estimate potential projects. When the customer called on Friday morning he was told that he would have it after the weekend. On Monday he called and was told it would be emailed to him that day and it was. It is unfortunate that this customer interpreted this situation as disinterest in his project. We strive to provide a customer experience that is superior and are sorry for his disappointment in us. It is unfair to give a D review on our workmanship when he never hired us.

Water heater in condo not working. Gray Wolf came out to measure the space so they could install the correct unit, did not charge for an extra service call to do this. We contacted them Monday morning and had hot water Monday afternoon, they came as they said and were punctual, polite and fully disclosed all cost (and potential adjustments) prior to their visit. We have used them in the past and are very pleased with their service, I highly recommend them!

The woman who arranged service was very friendly and polite. She fully disclosed all cost and potential for additional cost up front, and arranged the service call for Monday between 8-9am. Two men arrived at 9am, removed the old toilet and delivered / installed the new one, then fixed the shower (removed calcium deposits). It took just over an hour. I am very pleased and will use them again.

They showed up on time and cleaned out the pipe so our washing machine will drain properly. They explained how we can maintain the drain better to prevent this in the future. You do need to know that they charge $100 for the service call, then any parts and labor charges are in addition to that. I was able to apply the Angie's List coupon which was very nice. Good service all around.

Thank you for taking your time to leave this review. We appreciate it! Our service call does cover our expenses to come to your home. This allows us to only charge for the time that you use as opposed to hourly minimums that can be unfair to customers who just use 15 min of the next hour. Our extended service call (anywhere outside of Shawnee County where we are located) is $100.00. With the Angie's List Discount customers outside of Shawnee County actually pay less than our regular service call rate of $80.00

Gray Wolf Plumbing always provides excellent customer service and communicates very clearly on the issues found and how to repair. They have done several projects for me on several homes to include re-plumbing an entire house, smaller plumbing repairs, and larger sewer repairs including digging up old sewer from house to septic system. They honor their estimates, perform the work in a timely manner, and communicate well along the way. I will continue to use them for all of my plumbing needs.

The tech was very polite and acted very professional no issues there but he didn’t seem skilled enough in his work to realize it was root intrusion and not a sunken joint he was unable to get his 3” head down the line he hit a spot that he felt was a sunken joint so he put on a smaller head and he poked through the roots I don’t know if he didn’t have the training that was required to tell whether it was roots or not so had another plumbing company come and snake the line and they explained to me it was a root pack and we can get through it so they worked the spot and cleared it out

It is unfortunate when we do not meet a customer's expectations. That certainly is not our goal. Drain cleaning is not an exact science unless we can see what is there. This home owner was told on a previous drain cleaning service call (no camera work) that there were significant root intrusions at 60' and 90' some roots were pulled back with the cable but to know the extent of the root intrusion would require visualization with the camera. On the second service call he was only charged the nominal service call and not charged for any labor. He chose not to proceed. The sewer was draining, albeit slowly, when we left. In order to clear a root intruded sewer thoroughly takes time and budgetary concerns sometimes trump that. This home owner has a failing sewer. Our apologies.

Excellent. I woke up on a Friday morning to no hot water. After seeing excellent reviews on Angie's List and placing a few phone calls, I settled on Gray Wolf Plumbing. They were able to replace the old water heater with a new, A.O. Smith 50 gallon heater by the middle of the afternoon the same day. I am extremely pleased with the entire process, from talking to Sheila (very knowledgeable) all the way through to the service technician who installed the new heater. The technicians were professional and cleaned up after their work. The heater fits perfectly in the old space even with the modifications needed to the plumbing. Gray Wolf will be my go to for all plumbing needs.

We've been struggling with low water pressure for 9 months now -- several plumbing companies came out and gave us the same answer: an expensive project replacing our lines. Only Grey Wolf suggested that there might be another solution, and made repairs at the faucets themselves, and got us back to serviceable water pressure. Wish we'd called them first!

Pipe was fixed, tub spout put on and it works as it should. Initially we were going to have Gray Wolf put in all the new shower fixture items (handle/faucet along the inside cartridge and shower head) but we ended up doing that ourselves once we bought the right part. The lady who answered the phone for Gray Wolf - and worked with my husband, not me - knew what questions to ask, provided estimates and told us what to expect as far as repairs went. The billing statement left by the guy who did the work was legible and provided good detail about what was done, materials used, and the cost of everything. Gray Wolf was easy to work with and we will use them again / recommend them to others. My father-in-law initially provided my husband and me with Gray Wolf's phone number.

Very well. Very professional work and done timely. Highly recommended and will definitely use again for my next plumbing needs. Also I would add that Sheila does a very nice job of not only taking the calls and letting you know about scheduling, but she also does a good job of discussing your needs to understand what will be entailed and what you can expect.

Gray Wolf Plumbing was terrific! The woman answering the phone really knew her stuff. She asked key questions, set up an appointment quickly, and gave me advice on what to do for the next 24 hours until a technician could get there. Then, the technician was great! He solved the problem quickly, but was also very thorough in checking everything to make sure there wasn't a more extensive issue. He even played with my dogs! :) The price was more than reasonable, and I appreciated the Angie's List discount.
