Excellent experience! I called into the office at 9am and was told a technician could be here by noon. I received a follow up that the tech could come earlier if I was available. Our tech was very professional and explained ways to prevent future issues. Great work!!

Ken Griffin Plumbing Services Inc was recommend on our community network and highly rated on Angie's list. Appointment was scheduled and it was same day. That was great. They take security precautions by sending an e-mail with a photo of the driver. Service was performed in a timely and very professional manner and in my opinion for a plummer for about an hour the pricing was great. I now have a Plumbing Company that I can confidently refer and rely on in the future for all of our plumbing needs. .

The plumber, Rob, did an amazing job of diagnosing and solving the problem. Roots from a tree had completely constricted the underground drain pipe. He dug it up, cut out a monstrously large root and many surrounding roots, and put in new PVC pipe. It was backbreaking work, but he did it quickly and efficiently. Outstanding job.
Description of Work: The underground pipe leading away from the rain gutter downspout was clogged. The stream of overflowing water from the downspout was entering the house

The work was excellent.and they used first class components. The sump pump was located in a closet in our finished exercise room. They laid mats on the floor and when they had done all that work , you could not tell that they were constantly in and out of the room. It was perfectly clean. I will use them for any future plumbing work.
Description of Work: Our old sump pump and backup pump were damaged after we lost our electricity. They replaced the pump and battery backup pump. They found that our sump pit was collapsing. They dug out the old sump pit and rebuilt it.

For what I ended up getting, the price was high. They were so terrible that I almost feel a moral obligation to tell somebody. They were terrible. I mean there’s no question that they were awful. Yet, it’s their business. I don’t want to sink them, but they were so terrible. If you were a friend of mine I would absolutely tell you don’t even think about them.

Ken Griffin performed a job at my place and I was very satisfied with their work. I hired them for a second job and was extremely disappointed with their customer service. When I called to check on the status of my appointment, I learned that it was never noted in their appointment log. In addition, I was informed that since this job would require the water to be cut off to my condo building, I could not schedule an appointment for at least twenty four hours. Since I scheduled the appointment for my only afternoon off, I informed Ken Griffin Plumbing that I will choose a more responsible company to perform this job in the future.

They came prepared. There was no, "We have to make a trip to the shop" or anything like that. They had what they needed. They took care of what needed to be taken care of. If they showed up when I needed them, that's what matters.

Again, like the last time, they were available. So when we called, they came. Like the next morning, they were here. Let's say the pump was broken like now, this time of the day. At the time, they didn't have anyone available on call. We called several places. No one had anyone to come out on call. But we called them, and they said, "We will be there tomorrow morning," while everyone else said, "No, we will be there in another three days." It's water, right, so you need to have it. They were here the following day. They came prepared. They had all the parts that were needed. They took the old pump out and put the new one in. We were back in business within a day, which was great. Honestly, I think they did a fantastic job, so I really was expecting the typical thing. You engage a contractor, "We don't have this, we don't have that." They had everything they needed. So they just came, they did the job we wanted them to do, and they left. They were competitive. It was about the same with everybody.
Description of Work: They replaced the well pump again.

The plumber had to bring in his drum machine because the clog was a major clog somewhere in the pipeline. After quite some time the clog was cleared and the sink runs fine.

The work went very well. Our rep was thorough and explained what he was doing and why. As it turned out the plumbing wasn't the issue at all, it was our roof!

They did not disappoint! Our utility room is small and quite crowded, necessitating removal of our utility sink to gain access to the water heater. After the old heater was removed and the new unit was installed, our sink was expertly re-installed. All work was completed promptly and professionally. We will certainly contact Ken Griffin Plumbing Services again.
Description of Work: Our 15 year old natural gas water heater was not providing much hot water, so I decided it was time for a new one. Ken Griffin Plumbing and one other firm provided estimates to replace the water heater. Although Ken Griffin Plumbing's estimate was slightly higher, I chose them because of their support for community organizations, and their prior work for us has always been outstanding.
