Acme Plumbing first helped us try to figure out if the heater was under warranty and would be fixed by manufacturer for free. (We moved into the house last year, so we had imperfect documentation about the heater.) When we found out that the water heater was just out of warranty, Acme Plumbing sent someone out. He figured out it was a dirty sensor. He cleaned the sensor and we had hot water again. What a relief!
Description of Work: Repaired a broken on-demand water heater.

Description of Work: Had a problem with sewage backing up into tubs. Call them and they ran a snake from the roof which temporarily fixed the problem but it began again after they left. They came back and tried routing the line from the bathroom which involved cutting through sheetrock. They didn't tell me that they did not repair the sheetrock. This still did not fix the problem but charged me again for the service.

I continue to use them. They are usually pretty prompt. They have been with me since 1982. They don't always get it right the first time, but they always get it corrected. Their pricing is pretty good.

drain cleaning

The bathroom sink was draining very slowly and needed to be snaked. We called Acme and scheduled an appointment for the next day for the 11-1 window. The tech arrived 40 minutes past the window. He brought in his mechanical snake, but unfortunately it was broken, although he said it had been working the previous day. He tried to fix the machine, but was unable to do so. He then tried snaking the drain manually and luckily the clog wasn't too far in and he was able to clear the clog and get the sink draining again.
Description of Work: Unclogged bathroom sink.

They seemed pretty helpful. It was nothing special. They are pretty good and do the job. Their prices are reasonable. They are expensive but other places might even charge more. They were pretty trustworthy and won't do things that aren't necessary. They get the job done and their prices are in the ballpark.

Be careful and do not schedule your day around this company.
Description of Work: I contacted them for services and scheduled with them to come out. The first time was a window from 1pm-3pm and they called at 3pm to say the plumber would not be coming. The second time was the same 1pm-3pm window and it was 6:30pm when they showed up. I was never called to see if this would be OK.

water heater repair
  + -1 more
It went good overall. I thought replacing a water heater would be messy, but it was a fairly clean job. I got an experienced plumber who completed the work in 1.5 hours. Of course he said it was an easy install because everything lined up. The price was a little higher than other estimates, but since my unit was starting to leak I picked a company who could do the work sooner. Punctuality wasn't the greatest. I was given a window of 8-10 am for the start of work but I got a call at 9:45 am that the plumber would be late. The plumber showed up at 10:30 am. I understood when he said he had to take care of an emergency task first thing. I wish I was called a little sooner.

Called office on Tuesday morning and the phone was answered by a real person,not a machine. An appointment was scheduled for Wed morning. I was delighted given that this was not an emergency. The plumber arrived a few minutes early. Although we had purchased 3 potential replacement knob sets, none would fit. He had a set in his truck that did fit which avoided a rush trip to the hardware store. He quickly finished the project, caulked around the repaired knobs and left everything as clean as when he arrived. He was courteous and professional. I would not hesitate to recommend this company!
Description of Work: Replaced broken hot water knob in shower which was not a simple replacement. Plastic and metal parts inside the stem holding the knob were broken. Old house. Old fixtures. Nothing new fits!

Acme accommodated our schedules and sent out Ed at the time promised. He diagnosed the problem, went out to get the part, returned, and finished the job in a very short period of time. You wouldn't have known he was in the house/bathroom-great job cleaning up. Thanks.

They did a great job. I was very happy with them. They were very conscientious. It worked like a champ but they did say that they would come and fix it if it had problems. They were very punctual and arrived on time.
Description of Work: The drains were slow to drain. They used a machine to go down the vent on the roof to remove some clogs in the main pipe.

I called Acme plumbing in the morning, explained the work that needed to be done and they said they would check with and get back to me to schedule the project. They called back within an hour and were able to schedule the work for that same afternoon. The plumber, Paul, arrived with a helper right on time. He was pleasant, courteous and went right to work. The installation job was very well done and they left the room neat and clean.
Description of Work: Installed a new sink and faucet that I provided into Master bath counter.

Ed and Paul arrived and quickly pinpointed it as the gasket in the first floor toilet was leaking. They did not have the part but rescheduled. Upon removing the toilet, there was another problem with the flange so they had to reschedule - but in the interim I had asked if we should just go ahead and replace the toilet (they had pointed out a hairline crack that could be a future problem). When they returned, they fixed the flange with a little ingenuity and now everything works perfectly.
Description of Work: There was a leak in the basement ceiling coming from what we thought was a pipe. It turned out to be the gasket from the upstairs toilet - but it was even a more potential problem as the flange had rotted out. They were able to repair the flange and install a new toilet.

It went very well. I called for service on a Wednesday, and got an appointment for that Friday. When we called for service, we were told that the repair person would arrive between 11am and 1pm. Mr. Beavers himself arrived at 11am. I was thrilled at that! He came in looked at the shower head and the sink and repaired them rather quickly. He showed my husband what he was doing and pointed out things that we should do in the future. He was friendly and professional, and I would not hesitate to call Acme Plumbing again.
Description of Work: We had a non-stop leak in our bathroom shower and a leaky kitchen sink. We tried to change the washers and the aerator, but it did not resolve the problem. We're somewhat handy, but didn't want to mess around with a plumbing issue.
