Fred and Son Plumbing

We have depended on Fred and Son for expert plumbing help for years now. Today it was Joe who did the installation, and we couldn't be happier with his work. Equally important, we appreciate how friendly, considerate, and professional he was throughout his visit. We will continue to have Fred and Joe on speed dial!

First, they responded by phone within an hour of my requesting a quote through Angie's. The dispatcher, Bona, was friendly and knowledgeable, and she said that Fred could come out the next morning between 9-10am, which he did. Fred did a great job. He's very thorough and personable. He explained everything that he was going to do and the reasons for doing each thing, and then went over each item when he was finished. I was very impressed and definitely will use them again for future plumbing needs.

The work that was done exceeded my expectations. The problems with the leaky bathroom sink were identified and fixed. As the main project ended, we discovered a problem with the kitchen sink not draining and the garbage disposal not working. I didn't expect the problem to be fixed right away, but I was told that "We can't leave you with this problem." The problem was fixed before he left. I will definitely use this company again for plumbing needs.

Flawlessly. Excellent job, high level of professionalism and expertise. Thank you!

Fred is simply the best! Not only is he a superb plumber, but he is a wonderful person. He genuinely cares about his customers and wants to provide the best service possible at a fair price. We feel very fortunate to have Fred and his son as our go to plumbers!

Exceeded our expectations! I called at 12:30 on a Saturday about a leak in our basement. He was there by 3:00. Found it was our toilet on the first floor. He fixed it all quickly and efficiently. Explained in detail what happened and why it happened. Even explained the hum we hear in the house when the water turns off. Even liked our dog Bruno!

Don’t bother contacting, Service provider does not answer Angie list messages nor do they have a voicemail or scheduling representative

On time, Professional, and reasonable.

It went fine, and he did everything fine.

Plumber showed up on time. Performed the job perfectly and efficiently. The plumber even saved me money by telling me about the additional costs to pay by credit card. The plumber cleaned up afterwards didn't leave any mess behind. He is very professional, friendly, truthful. Definitely will hire again and recommended to friends and coworkers.

Fred is very personable and friendly. He returned my call right away, even though I placed it after hours. He replaced one old toilet with a new one he just happened to have in his truck, and it works great even though it's a low flow one. Prices are very reasonable. Fred is my plumber from now on.

Same day service was VERY appreciated.

Fred was very responsive and communicative, especially by texting. He was flexible about scheduling the work and arrived when he said he would. He resolved an ongoing leak, thus was extremely helpful.

Service was completed as expected. Fred came with his son promptly in the morning. He first assessed the issue and made a recommendation for the repair. The work seems to be of good quality. Final price was just as quoted. Fred was very professional and quite personable. Overall I’m happy with their work and excellent customer service. Highly recommended! I will going to Fred for my future plumbing needs.

Fred was extremely professional and efficient. Since our faucet broke and we could not use the kitchen sink, we really needed this fixed quickly. Fred came on a Saturday, which was great. He returned our calls quickly and took pride in his work. I would hire him again for a larger job.

Fred came out the same day, tried several approaches but determined eventually that I needed a new toilet. He had it in the truck and installed it and included a quality seat. Fred is professional, friendly and made suggestions about maintenance, All in all, it was a good experience and he is now our plumber.

Great! Fred returned my call and came the same day. He fixed it quickly and we had a pleasant conversation as he worked. I haven't had a bit of trouble with the toilet since.

Fantastic. Very thorough, nice, communicated the process very well and did great work.

The problem occurred on a Saturday with house guests arriving shortly. Fred responded promptly. He does not charge a premium rates on Saturday and total charges were well within the typical range for this sort of job. The workmanship was first class. This was one of the best new contractor experiences I've had in a long time and the sort thing that makes me an Angie's List enthusiast.

Great, see "What did you need done?"

Everything went very well. The company was very responsive to my request. The time was set, and Fred came promptly at the arranged time. He was knowledgeable, professional, and a pleasure to have in my house. He knew exactly what was wrong and what to do. I would not hesitate to call him again...very pleased.

The cracked pipe ended up being between the first and second floor where drain pipes from the upstairs bathrooms came together in a Y-joint. The house is 45 years old and these old plastic pipes eventually crack from flexing, etc. which is exactly what had happened. Fred had to cut 10 inch wide strips in the drywall in the kitchen and bathrooms walls and ceilings to get at the area to replace the leak. He added some rubber sleeves to the new Y-joints to allow for some flexing of the house so this would not happen in the future. When all was done, the repair was $2300 and I had to hire a drywall contractor for another $500 to fix the drywall, but Fred was upfront about the price, the extent of the damage that would have to be done for the repair, and the need to fix the drywall after he left. While it really stinks to have to cough up almost $3K to for a leaking pipe, that's the cost of owning a home build in the 1970's with cheap materials and I was very impressed with the work done by Fred and his same day responsiveness. At least the leak was noticed right away so we did not have any water or mold damage to deal with.

I contacted Fred by email first, as on his website, it says you can either call or email. But there was no response to my email for a couple of days, so I decided to call. Fred asked me to text him my address. He made an appointment to come to the house a couple of days later. He came on time, drilled a hole through the concrete block in the basement and installed a new faucet. He added a bleeder valve to the copper pipe and explained how I should bleed the pipe after turning off the inside valve before the cold winter months. Fred was pleasant and informative. He did a good job. It took about an hour and 15 minutes. To contact Fred, you might want to send him an email explaining the work needed, and include your phone number so he can call you back. Or send him a text that includes your address.

Nice to work with and very professional.

He was on time, the prices were reasonable, overall excellent service. We will continue to use this vendor.
