RETURNED PROMPTLY AND FIXED PROBLEM IN SHORT AND FAST ORDER. PRICE WAS IN ADDITION TO ANGIES LIST "DEAL". HOPE TO USE FOR SOME FUTURE CHANGES.

LJ was very pleasant, but a little overbooked, I think. We had some issues at the house that required a revisit, which LJ was good about working around, even with his busy schedule.

I believe that my rating this service and its personnel speak for themselves, my wife and I were very pleased with the service and the results.

I was a little taken back when LJ showed up with 2 other employees (each @ $100/hr). He didn't disclose that he'd be bringing additional laborers to the house... which ran the bill up to $450 (in addition to the Angies list deal). In addition to the extra workers, he didn't have all the PVC parts (which were nothing special), so he had to run to Home Depot while on the clock. The work he did was fine, but I'd recommend anyone that uses him to ask for a bid before he starts working.... I felt as though I got scammed. Sorry, I thought my wife said two other people, but she also had to make a second run to Home Depot for you even after we discussed parts on the phone regarding the gas line. You said you were glad I discussed this with you prior to the appt because you only carry certain parts on the truck, but still showed w/o the required parts. You also had to take multiple phone calls while there and I'm not sure you deducted that time from our bill. Also, not quite sure why an apprentice is charged at the same rate as the licensed plumber.

LJ came through for me yet again. He was quick to respond when I was in need and completed the necessary work very efficiently. He is very pleasant and is thorough in his descriptions. Price seemed slightly steep, but it still probably beat out any other plumbing competitors.

I used them twice. They were good and helpful. It was $105 per hour. The price included the toilet. They had to cut the copper line to install the new valve.

Plumber wanted to use pex to connect new water heater to existing copper water lines but didn't have any on his truck so I supplied him with about three feet of pex. I had already connected the gas line and the vent pipe because the new water heater was in a location 10 feet from the old location. I also removed the old water heater myself. The plumber and helper both worked about two hours and charged me four hours labor plus parts. They did cap the hot and cold line at the old water location. The work done was excellent with no leaks and clean work. Home Depot or Lowes would have installed the water heater for less.

He was very nice but didn't have the right parts even though I told him when I made the appointment that I had Kohler toilets. He got the parts and made the repairs. It took longer than I expected to get the parts. The toilets work perfectly after the repairs.

It went very well. The plumbers (2) were very professional, arrived in good time and were knowledgeable.

He called beforehand and said that he was running a bit late. That was good because sometimes people don't say that they are going to be late. He also brought an assistant and co-worker with him and I did not want to be a female alone with a strange guy in my home. All three of the men were clean (using their own towel on the floor). They all knew their trade and the owner, L.J. Slavens, was willing to go to get the parts needed twice, not charge me the time to do that, plus give me the Angie's List 10% discount. We were saved at least $25.00 that way. L.J. Even bought a box of 36 Toy Water Guns as a benefit for Missouri Right to Life Western Region! I want this company to stay in business for a good long time from now!

I had called them to ask for a bid. They actually showed up at my house and gave me a bid and did the work on the same visit. I thought I needed a new hot water heater because there was water on the floor underneath the water heater. They did a nice job replacing the water heater but I notice a couple of days later the water was still underneath the water heater. I thought is was just some left over water from the replacement work. After several more days I looked and found out that the water was actually coming from the humidifier unit on my furnace that is right next to the water heater. So it turns out I really did not need a new water heater afterall. Although, the water heater was 12 years old and would have needed replacing soon. Besdes the hot wate heater I had to replace the main water valve in to the house because after the water had been shut off to the house so the water heater could be replaced the valve started leaking when the water was turned back on. Overall, they were professional and did good work, I am just not sure if they knew it was not the water heater that was causing the water to be on the floor- probably not.

Actually, it went fine. The gentleman who did the work, he had to do more than 2 hours but that was okay. So it was actually the water panel in the laundry room that had to be replaced. It was kind of rusted, too. That would've sort of been bad news if I hadn't gotten it repaired. I think there were additional charges. It was a big job. He was here like a half a day, if I recall correctly. He charges me the amount. He's definitely not cheap but as I said, he did a good job. It was worth it but when I'm doing a lot of home remodeling things, it all adds up.

I was using the exterior faucet, with a hose, to clean out the condenser on my air conditoner. My wife came out, and told me that water was spraying around the basement. I looked where it was spraying from, and it looked like the copper tube/valve interface was bad. I went in and turned off the water, at the meter. I went to my computer, logged in to Angie's List, and searched for plumbers, in KC. I noted that there was a coupon, for 2 hours, so I bought it. I called the company, and they told me they would call back, and tell me when they could make it. About 5 minutes later, they called and said they would be there in about 20 minutes. They got there in about 19 1/2 minutes. I showed them what valve it was, from the outside, and then where it was, on the inside. They took the old valve off, and showed me where the pipe connected to the valve had burst. They got to work, and removed/replaced the valve and its valve/copper tube interface. They seemed to know what they were doing, and had all the necessary parts/tools to fix it, in a fast, professional manner. I reccommend them.

It went great. We discovered the leak which was caused by copper pipe meeting lead pipe. (Old house) Checked Angie's list - found a coupon for 2 hours worth of plumbing for $199. Purchased it. Called plumber. Gave an estimate that he could be here in two hours. Two men arrived in exactly two hours. They worked for two hours and very neatly managed the repairs. The even brought a towel to clean up with. (Since it was a garage, that was really unnecessary but very nice.)

I think it's a family-owned business and the guy brought his son with him. You know, his son was working with him and helping and I thought that was really great.

excellent service, great. They were on time. Highly recommend

He is excellent. The price you’re given is what you pay and they are very reasonable. We do plan to use him for future projects that need completed. He is very helpful with references that may be helpful for you.

You don't really appreciate amenities like hot water, unless you've had to boil it on a stove. LJ was fair, honest and thorough. We've had hot water on demand and have only noticed a very minor increase in our monthly gas bill. The work took a little longer than I thought it would, but to this point it was well worth the additional expense. Plan accordingly. I will definitely consider K C Metro Plumbing for further plumbing projects.

L.J. took the call personally at around 11:30 PM (I expected a voice mail) on Friday. He made an appointment to show up andgive me a price the following morning at 9:00 AM. He even called at 7:50 AM to confirm and say he may be there closer to 9:30 AM. He showed up close to 10:00 AM faced a difficult install due to water softener lines being in the way. He and his partner measured the space (It was going to be tight) . Ended up that the recommended specs for the 40 gallon replacement unit was not going to allow for it to be installed in the tight area however the 50 gallon unit would fit. (I seen the numbers so I know it was not an up sale) L.J. reduced the price of the 50 gallon unit that he also had on his truck so that it would fit into my budget. They spent the next four and a half hours working to replace the system. It looks great. He went over everything to be sure I understood how to turn the gas off and on and to light the pilot light should there be a need in the future. Over all I was very pleased with out interactions and would recommend therm in the future. Only problem I see is that there is still lots of water in the garage and around the unit and the drywall is very wet. Wish they would have mopped up the water before it got all over the wall or at least cleaned it up before they left. (They did clean up their trash)

Able to do work on same day as estimate. Work Completed as promised.

They are prompt, do the job well and are honest

Looked at my toilet and drain pipe, and gave a high estimate so they would not have to do the job. Was there for maybe 30 min did not fix anything for 99 dollars.

Two men arrived at the house on a Saturday, The helper started on the kitchen sink and switched out the faucet. Then he moved to open the bathroom drain. In each case he tried to clean-up behind himself. He then began to work with the boss as they completed the bathroom faucet. They were clean, efficient and effective.

He was very up front with us and got the job done quickly. He discovered a nail in a second pipe that was causing our second, bigger leak and was able to repair that as well. I would definitely recommend KC Metro Plumbing and will use them again. In fact, we got an estimate on another issue before he left:)

See above. It was all very odd. The local gas company had left some kind of notice on my water heater about its being defective (Duh! Why was I replacing it?), and the workers decided they couldn't do the work for me because of that. I was irked with the gas company for leaving a notice that caused me so much trouble and time. But when I talked to the gas co. I was told there was no problem--that KC Metro Plumbing could have done the work just fine. I don't know what went wrong. I would caution anyone contemplating having work done by this company either to live in Kansas, or to make sure that to confirm that no licensing issues will arise before spending a lot of time and energy.
