repair of water leak
Description of Work: HP, the owner, located the source of a water leak from our fridge that caused our basement ceiling to collapse. While he is very personable and seemed to be willing to help resolve our problem, he did not fix our problem and he completely overcharged us beyond the approved fee he quoted us. $169 was paid to assess the damage, but he charged an additional surprise fee of $489 which he never informed us of to leave a fan to dry the floor. This was something that was reasonably understood to be part of “diagnosing the problem.” He also never came back to repair the actual damage (he cut the ceiling to examine leak) and has been unresponsive to phone and email requests for repair estimates to submit an insurance claim. Would not recommend. I only used because was desperate, despite other reviews who mentioned the overcharging tactic he employs. Find a more reliable and honest technician. 1 month after initial request for help and our water line is still not fixed.

Description of Work: AVOID JIM S AT ALL COSTS. They charge $250 to replace a toilet seat (you read that right). When I asked for a steam shower accessory and provided the model number, I had to wait a week to find out that the person I spoke to hadn t gotten around to ordering the part. When they did order the part, I was told that the part wouldn t work because the steam shower isn t wired for it. After calling the manufacturer, I was told that the plumber was dead wrong and had simply ordered the WRONG PART!! Here s the best part. I paid hundreds of dollars UPFRONT to be a Jim s customer, the main benefit of which was that I would avoid the upfront trip charges. Guess what? They now charge $50 trip charges to Jim s customers. BOTTOM LINE: There are too many plumbers out there who don't ask for upfront money as Jim's did to go for a service that can't get things right.

THE MEMBER WAS TOLD THAT WE DO NOT NORMALLY WORK ON STEAM GENERATORS, BUT THAT WE WOULD TRY TO HELP HIM. THE SUPPLIER THAT WE FOUND IN BROOKLYN, NY SENT US THE WRONG PART. THE MEMBER KNEW WE WERE NOT EXPERTS WHEN HE HIRED US TO DO THIS WORK. NOW WE ARE THE BAD GUYS BECAUSE WE TRIED TO HELP HIM. UNFORTUNATELY, HE IS MAKING A MOUNTAIN OUT OF A MOLEHILL AND EXAGGERATING AND MISSTATING THE FACTS. I SUGGESTED THAT PERHAPS HE SHOULD CALL ANOTHER PLUMBER, AND HE AGREED. I WILL BE HAPPY TO REFUND THE PRICE HE PAID FOR OUR SERVICE CONTRACT.

Very positive. All employees were polite, Guy, the electrician was on time for the estimate and the actual work. Guy was very thorough, made sure that the electrical codes were followed, even calling to check about one he had a question on rather than guessing, and his bill was actually lower than the estimate. He cleaned up after himself. I am going to use this company again to install the rest of my new lighting as soon as I obtain the fixtures. I will recommend Jim's to other people.
Description of Work: Rewired kitchen, sitting room, and dining room. Installed new lighting fixtures in kitchen and sitting room. Installed chandelier in dining room.

When calling to schedule an appointment, a very kind person took the time to explain the process and procedure for free estimates. I was requesting a plumber for non-emergency issues and was given an appointment. Two days before the appointment, the plumber called to reschedule, leaving a message with a callback number. My husband called back and a rude woman scolded him for calling the wrong number. She gave him the direct number to the plumber and we rescheduled. The plumber arrived on time and was very thorough. He was friendly and really knew his stuff. He prepared a quote for us (higher than we thought, over $5,000, but we hadn't actually called plumbers before). The only confusion was with the ''free'' estimate (it had been described as free by the woman I originally spoke with) but the plumber said there was a new charge of $30 to cover all estimates. We would have paid had we been told about it, but because we hadn't, the plumber waived the fee.
Description of Work: We did not have any work done, simply called for an estimate for the following: pinhole leaks, slow draining bath tub, toilet flange repair, a disposal that spews the garbage into our second sink, and a leak in our heater.

Our water heater was 23 years old, and began leaking around noon. I found out around 12:45 and I called Jim's. They sent Harold over. They said that he would be there before two and he arrived at about 1:45. He went and got a new water heater and it was completely installed by 4:00. He was polite, knowledgeable and professional. Unfortunately, the water heater he installed was defective. He came out and replaced it the next day. I'm not certain that the price was as low as it could have been, it was considered an emergency and obviously we didn't have time to shop around. However, the ease in which everything was handled was priceless.

I felt extremely grateful when the electrician called me (I was at work) to tell me that everything was working fine and that he did not have to fix anything. I was so appreciative of his honesty. And, he hung my dining room fixture for a nominal fee. Thank you very much, Jim', Inc. and I would certainly call you again.
Description of Work: I asked to have the electrician go through my whole condo and check all the electrical switches to make sure they were working, since I am getting ready to sell the condo. Also, a dining room fixture needed hanging.

Our plumber, Mike, was on time and called prior to his arrival to confirm. We had two jobs to be completed. One was to attach the hot/cold water lines to a new laundry sink and the other was to fix a leaking bathroom sink. I thought that the trap in the bathroom sink would need to be replaced, but Mike correctly diagnosed the problem as a partially blocked piped and fixed the leak simply by snaking the drain. He did a great job attaching the water lines to the laundry sink and even corrected a substandard job done by a previous plumber. They charge a flat rate fee to snake a drain ($306.00). I've never had this done before, but it seemed like a lot (maybe not?). However, attaching the water lines cost $300.00 and seemed very reasonable (all pipes were exposed), and we got a $70.00 multiple-job discount. Overall, I was very pleased and would highly recommend this company. Mike was neat, explained what needed to be done, and was correct in his assessment and completion of the jobs.
Description of Work: Snaked bathroom sink and hooked up hot and cold copper lines to laundry sink in basement.

As far as the overall experience, the price was the only disappointment. I hadn't expected to pay as much as I did. I guess it is partly my fault for not getting more estimates. There was also a sales pitch about a value package for future services, before the work started, which I didn't expect. It was connected to the price I paid for the water heater.
Description of Work: Replaced water heater because of its age. Not an emergency replacement. Had to refit some connections to bring it up to code.

Overall, a good experience. The plumber didn't quite get it right the first time, and it was still leaking. As I was about to call back the next morning, a rep from Jim's called to check on my satisfaction. I said it was still leaking. The plumber came back out by noon that day to make some adjustments, and now it works beautifully.
