Requested an appointment via their website on the weekend. They contacted me promptly Monday morning to schedule an appointment for an estimate. They had a person out to provide an estimate that afternoon at which point they also scheduled us for the actual work later in the week. Their employee was right on time for the repair appointment. He got right down to business replacing the pipe and spigot. There weren't any pleasantries exchanged, but he wasn't rude, I'll just chalk that up to it being 8:30am. The work was completed in a timely fashion, even though a few minor hiccups were encountered, none of which were the plumbers fault but had to do with the age of the plumbing. In the end, the cost of the repair came in right in the original estimated range.
Description of Work: Replaced a leaking spigot and installed a shutoff valve inside the house for winterization purposes.

The interaction with person on the phone, (I believe it was the owner) was excellent he made it apparent that he knew both the technical aspects of the job, but also how to operate a customer services focused company. The repair person showed up a few minutes earlier than promised, I found him to be professional and knowledgeable. He quickly sorted out the problem and took the steps to get the water heater working correctly as soon as possible. In the end I could not be more satisfied and would recommend Hedland plumbing to anyone.

I had tried to do the fix myself and he told me I had pretty much gotten it correct, but there were a few tricks to it. He showed me what I had done incorrectly so next time I could fix it myself. He also showed me where the shut off valve for the main water was - an important item! He also informed me that I could get free replacement parts from the manufacturer since there was a lifetime guarantee. Overall, it was a bit pricey for a simple leaky faucet, but the $35 coupon from Angie's List helped (otherwise it would have been $158).
Description of Work: We had a leaky shower head. He came and replaced the seats and springs.

The technician was at my house for 1.5 hours. He augured the drain 3x and said it was clear of roots but that the tiles were bad between the house and the street. Recommended an excavator come out to replace the line. Then I contacted someone to come out with a camera to look down the tile to find out exactly what the problem was. The second service provider found that the the trap for the floor drain was clogged. Once he opened it, the floor drain worked fine. He could find no problem with the line from the house to the street. Only charged me $85 compared to $285 I paid for Hedlund to come out. So glad I took the step to bring in the camera guy. Even if I had gone to the expense of replacing the tile from the house to the street, it would not have fixed the issue I was having.
Description of Work: My washing machine drains through a hose to a floor drain which connects to the main plumbing which exits the house. The floor drain was draining slowly. I asked them to come out to clear the drain.

Response from Hedlund Plumbing
When we made the initial diagnosis the main drain appeared to be blocked as there was standing water backing up at the main clean-out fitting. We opened the main line from the house to the street and did end up pulling out some tree roots from the front yard area. It appears there was two separate issues occurring with the drain lines, and it's obvious that we completely dropped the ball on looking closer at the separate floor drain/branch line. In our discussion today it's quite obvious that we made an error in the diagnosis, and it's something we strive every day to avoid. As I mentioned over the phone, this feedback is very valuable to us so that we can make some corrections on our end with the tech out in the field. Every now and then human error comes into play in not being thorough enough and I apologize again for this problem. As I also mentioned, I do not feel it's right for you to have to pay another company to make the corrections that should have happened on our first trip, so I've mailed out an $85 refund to you to cover that other cost. Again, thank you for the review. Although it's not a common review for us, the input is still valuable in order to make Hedlund Plumbing a stronger company in the future.

Our home is over 20 years old and our first experience with a non-flushing toilet occurred on a recent weekend. The problem was with only one of our three toilets, and the blockage turned out to be in one of the drainage lines that also connected to the drain pipe from the sink in the same bathroom. Although this was not a dire emergency, I left a message on Hedlund Plumbing's voice mail on a Sunday evening, and the receptionist called me promptly the next morning. A plumber (Jim) arrived around 8:30 a.m., after phoning to inform me that he would be arriving soon. Jim approached the problem methodically and efficiently, and the toilet was working properly well within a couple of hours. He protected the flooring during the job and cleaned up well after himself. The bill was $160 minus a $35 discount coupon from Angie's List, which more than pays for my subscription! Hedlund did the original plumbing in our home and has replaced a sump pump and water heater since then. The Hedlund plumbers who have done work for us over the years have been different individuals, but their work has been consistent and effective, so I have come to trust this company. Its prices are reasonable, its workers are prompt and highly professional, and I will no doubt call the company again when I need a reliable plumber. By the way, the company specializes in same-day service, which is another reason I have relied on it repeatedly.

Great service. They arrived as scheduled and had the old out and the new in within 2 hrs. Our old water heater had lasted 22 yrs and wouldn't hold the pilot light on but they gave us the option of repairing or buying new; buying new meant that we needed new venting because the code had changed, as well as parts, so that needed upgrading. They even provided us with a $50 coupon.

The plumber who came out for the estimate was on time and very friendly. Unfortunately after that nothing else has happened. At this point I would not even consider using the service after the attitude problem of the receptionist that answered the phone and the fact that I still have not heard a word from them regarding my quote.
Description of Work: The plumber showed up on time to go over what I needed done in the house. He was very professional, took notes and said that his boss would review what was needed and provide me a quote. 24 hours later I had not heard anything so I contacted the company to inquire about my quote. The receptionist acted as though she was insulted I was already calling to badger them for the quote. She went on to say that they were working on the quote and I would hear from them soon. It is now 4 days later and I have heard nothing.

I want to thank you again for the opportunity to discuss the water softener estimate on the phone this morning, and explain what occurred last week. We take pride in being able to get back on estimates with customers within 24-48 hours on a regular basis, but I obviously dropped the ball completely on your quote from last week. It's not acceptable at all, and some changes have been made to ensure we continue to be on track with all estimates in the future. Thanks so much for your input as well as you understanding on the phone this morning. The quote has been sent per our conversation and I hope to have an opportunity to make things right with the installation, if our quote is satisfactory. Tom Hedlund

They were very professional and helpful over the phone, and were able to send out help the very same day. Harry, their service provider, was on time and very friendly. He called before he came to make sure we were home, worked through a stubborn kitchen faucet installation, and cleaned up after himself. Their prices were reasonable, given the amount of work involved, and the discount from being an Angie's list member softened the blow. I would absolutely recommend these guys for any plumbing issue.

The plumber found the problem and fixed it within twenty minutes. I was very happy for the angies list discount because so little time was involved in fixing the problem. The plumber also inspected and had an estimate sent for some other work that needs doing. Unfortunately their bid was higher than the one I accepted. However I had no doubt that they would have done an excellent job. I would not hesitate to call them again.
Description of Work: I was not getting hardly any cold water in a bathroom sink. This had been going on for some time and was gradually becoming worse. The plumber found a clogged lead pipe between the shut-off valve and the faucet and replaced it.

Bathtub starting draining slow, then not at all. Tried unclogging myself, but couldn't. Called Hedlund Plumbing and scheduled a appointment for someone to come on an afternoon that was convenient for me. The technician called to let me know when he would be here and arrived promptly. He was courteous, professional and friendly. The drain was quickly fixed and the technician provided advice on how to unclog the drain if it happens again. He also provided an estimate for additional work that could be done to lessen the chance of it happening.

We had one of the plumbers at Hedlund Plumbing, Ned, come out to do some work on our 1953 cement slab ranch house. He replaced our drain from the bathroom lavatory sink, provided and installed a nice new Kohler faucet (to match the shower fixtures we also had Hedlund put in last year) a new vanity and top, and ensured adequate venting to the plumbing in for the area. All service was done when scheduled, communication was very good, and the Hedlund folks were professional and friendly throughout. I feel that we received very good value for our money, and once again I have been impressed by Hedlund's excellence in performing their trade. They are an asset to the Lansing, MI area, in my opinion. It's really good to know there are such professionals who can be trusted to do the job well and to treat you fairly.

Contacted Hedlund Plumbing after reading good reviews in Angies List. Information given by Tom during my phone call to company was was well defined regarding the purchase and installation of a bath faucet. Adam called ahead and arrived on time for the installation. He did the faucet installation professionally, including the installation of two new shut off valves and two new water lines, all included in the original price quote. Following the installation, Adam answered a question I had about a small dripping problem in a PVC line in the basement. He pointed out it was a heating air return line and I should review the problem with the furnace installer. I appreciate the outstanding service rendered by Hedlund reps, Tom and Adam. In the future, I plan to check with Hedlund Plumbing first when plumbing support is needed.

I would like to apologize for any computer issues we may have experienced with our website or email. I looked through the complete history of all the calls we received via email and do not show anything for you or your address. Service calls scheduled on-line from our website go directly to three different email addresses to ensure that nothing gets missed. We then are able to respond the same day, or the next morning if it's sent overnight. It appears that something must have happened to the transmission.

Called for estimate on finding and repairing leak in upstairs bathroom that is draining down onto the roof of the garage and through the garage ceiling. They responded to my request for information within 2 hours, and were ready to come the next day to provide an estimate. Unfortunately they would not be able to provide all the services that I think we will need for this particular problem - plumber, installation, builder. They stick to the plumbing, she said, and I am not knowledgeable enough to coordinate that with two other contractors, so I'm going to look for someone who can do the whole thing in house. I'm giving As for the fast response - I didn't have to waste any time!
