while the plumber was cleaning out the line, he could tell that we had a collapse pipe. He was hitting dirt. When the house was built in 1952 they use the clay pipes. Over time the clay breaks down and tree roots caused damage. Used the camera and show my husband the collapse by the sidewalk. Had to have the sewer line from the house to the street replaced. It was expensive, but we now have peace of mind with our plumbing. don't have to worry about the tiolet over flowing and bathtub filling up with water because of the clogged sewer line.
Description of Work: cleaned out the sewer line from the house to the street.

I had a plumbing company tell me that I need to have the roots removed from my sewer line and, in all likelihood, have to have the lawn dug up to do so. I called Michigan Plumbing for a second opinion and a camera scope which the first company said they couldn't do based on the configuration of the waste pipes. Michigan Plumbing came out, scoped the sewer line and determined there was no need to do more than just rotor out the small amount of roots in the pipes at that time. That was three years ago and no further problems.
Description of Work: evaluated the need to remove roots in sewer.

We were given a 4-6 pm window. They called to let us know they would be running late and showed up around 6:45. Once they accessed the line, it was determined that the entire water line needed replaced. He did not have all of the parts with him to do the replacement and asked us if we would be available the next day between 12-1 as it would only take him 15 minutes to finish up. He showed up well after 1 pm and finished the job. The plumber was very nice and did a good job, I just wish his company would do a better job making his schedule so that the estimates were a little closer to accurate on when they would arrive.
Description of Work: When we pulled the fridge out to paint behind it, the water line got kinked and started leaking. They came to repaire the line.

new house for us and it took a little while to find where the drain clean out to the sewer was located but Jared was knowledgable and knew how to find it and then go to work to clean it out. He cleaned up after the job was done and gave good advice about plumbing systems and possible future problems.

Our hot water heater wasn't wasn't working correctly. We had michigan plumbing come out for a consultation about installing two tankless heaters as we have a bathroom on the other side of the house furthest from the existing water heater.this bathroom has to run water for awhile before hot water arrives. He explained all that was involved.. Taking up the finished basement ceiling to run gas lines etc. our existing gas line wasn't large enough to accommodate the pressure for a tankless so it would mean running a new line. We decided on a larger water tank with a programmable thermostat . Now we don't have to heat the water at times when we aren't using it. It's complicated to explain. We always have hot water just not as hot as regular usage times. The installation went as he explained it would. He cleaned up after himself . Michigan plumbing called after he left to make sure everything went well and that we were happy. They also called about a week later to make sure every thing was still perfect. We love our new system. We now have enough hot water to fill our jacuzzi. Even with the larger tank our gas bill didn't go up.

After waiting 2 hours for the plumber, he arrived replaced the part in 20 minutes. Efficient clean, professional. The problem--it wasn't an emergency--called and waited 4 days for the appointment. The bill for the time and the lack of details on the bill--how much per hour, parts, what was done. very unprofessional. I've called the owners/manager for the last 2 weeks for some response. None--They don't even have an address so I can stop by the office to speak to someone in person. Very unprofessional

It went terrible. They were supposed to come around the middle of the afternoon and they never showed up! I called the office around 5PM and they said the service person would show up in about 2 hours. This did not happen. They did show up the next day after I made another call to the office. The service person arrived and started cleaning the drain line, but stopped after going about 10 feet and told me that he thought a pipe may be broken because he could not find the problem. Since the pipe is under the basement floor this was not good news. He offered to knock $20 off the bill which was originally $197.00. He loaded up his equipment and left. The next day I called RotoRooter and they came out that same afternoon. They were successful is getting the pipe unclogged. They said they had to go about 25 feet before reaching the clog. I made a call to Michigan Plumbing and they eventually agreed to reduce the bill by half. About ten days later I received a check for about $88.00. Michigan Plumbing advertises that they "exceed your expectations" but they failed in this case.
Description of Work: They came to fix a plugged drain that went from the kitchen to the outlet just outside the house.

It cost twice as much as my regular drain cleaner who was out of town at the time. I wouldn't use them again because of the pricing. I used them one before for a broken pipe. They were really high priced. They do good work but they are so high priced, I won't use them again. When they fixed the pipe they made a hole in the wall and they didn't fix it. They were pretty responsive

Response from Michigan Plumbing Inc
Thank you for your comments. I would like to explain the reason our prices are at the level they are and the reason we stand out from our competition. We arrive at our prices based on what it costs us to stay in business. Michigan Plumbing has been around for over twenty years and we want to be here for many years to come so that we may service the needs of our customers. We do background checks and drug testing of all our employees to ensure a safe experience for our customers. We have a “Code of Ethics” that is closely followed and puts the customer first. We arrive in marked trucks, in uniform and are licensed and insured. Our phones are always answered by a “live” person and we are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. These items all add to the cost of a job and should be figured when seeking a reputable plumbing company. Please consider this when comparing our prices with the prices of other companies. Michigan Plumbing does not charge a “trip charge” so an estimate can be acquired for absolutely no cost to you. Also, our prices do not go up if we come out in the evening, on the weekend or even on a holiday. You are definitely in the right place as Angie’s List only accepts companies that are reputable, prescreened and licensed if required. Thank you for reading and happy shopping.

I called them Friday afternoon and scheduled to have someone come on Monday to repair a kitchen sink that was leaking into the basement. They called me back on Sunday afternoon after realizing they had accidentally double booked the Monday appointment. She was very apologetic about it and offered to have her repair man come that evening late or on Tuesday. I opted for the late appointment that evening because my husband and I figured it would be a job with a lot of work and prep to come back to. He came and gave a quick estimate on the job as well as another job we will be scheduling in the near future. Tuesday he came back and fixed everything and even cleared out a slow draining bathroom sink for no charge! Super nice guy, very professional, fast and clean work. I will be calling them in the next 3 or 4 weeks for the big job that he estimated for us.
Description of Work: We had a leaking pipe under our kitchen sink that was puddling down in the basement. The pipe was very old so he closed it off and installed a new one and rerouted it. It is a pipe that is in the basement that comes up through the floor into the cabinet under the sink.

I called Michigan Plumbing this morning with an urgency of plugged plumbing in my kitchen. Although they promised time tomorrow, I explained the urgency so they sent someone this afternoon. One of their employees, Tom, called before arriving as they promised, he introduced himself, assessed the situation and described their fee. He had to persevere because his initial attempt didn't solve the problem. He was successful within an hour, cleaned up and accepted the Angie's List coupon for $40 off the fee. I'll call them again when I need a plumber.
Description of Work: Unclogged the kitchen drains. It was unclear whether the clog was in associated with the kitchen sink, the garbage disposal or the dishwasher.

Description of Work: Michigan Plumbing snaked my main drain due to tree roots growing in the drain. The roots caused my pipes to backup. Once the main drain was snaked, the gentleman from Michigan Plumbing ran water in the washing machine and the floor drain to be sure the drain was clear again. He also suggested that I have the drain snaked on a yearly basis and said that they would remind me with a post card.The

Michigan Plumbing Inc came promptly and quickly the first day to clear it partially and almost immediately set up the next appointment to come back the next day to use high powered equipment to finish the root cleaning. I received a call to confirm the appointment for the next day, they arrived on time, they were very professional, and the price was very reasonable.

My basement flooded on Wed, Apri 10th. On Thur, April 11th I called another plumbing company. That same day a plumber came out and diagnosed my problem as an inoperable sump pump. He installed a new sump pump. However I still had problems with water seeping into the basement. Finally after several consecutive days of mopping and vacuuming up water on Saturday afternoon of April 21st, I called Michigan Plumbing. I was told a plumber would be out between 8:00 and 10:00 that evening. He actually didn't arrive until midnight. I don't hold that against the plumber (Adam) because it has been a very wet few weeks in Michigan and tons of basements have flooded. Michigan Plumbing as well as other companies are extremely busy these days. Adam immediately diagnosed my problem. The main line from the house to the street was severely clogged with tree roots. Adam was very helpful and knowledgeable. He explained to me how the drainage system should work. He also said that he would have thought that the other plumber would have diagnosed my problem as clogged drains, and not just a sump pump issue. Snaking a drain is a very dirty job....snaking two drains is twice as dirty. Adam was very thorough and very careful about cleaning up afterwards. He even caught an icky centipede for me. I have used Michigan Plumbing in the past, and previously thought their prices a little too steep. But after last Saturday I realize that they are very thorough and professional. In the future if I have plumbing issues if I can afford to pay a little more, I will go with Michigan Plumbing.

I have used them twice. They replaced both things and they are still working, I would give them high marks. They are high priced, but they do a good job. They have a policy that they never quote estimates over the phone. They always insist that you make an appointment and the guy comes out, he tells you what it is and then you are left there standing deciding whether to let him go or to agree with what he says, so that is a little bit unusual.

They were real good. They did not have to dig up our ground and that is what pleased me the most. He was very professional, courteous, and friendly. We are going to go with them again. He lets you know how often he thinks you need to get it done which for us he told us longer. When we initially called he said we probably could have waited about two years longer, which is a lot of savings. He was honest and he was timely. They will be on call, and I think he told us maybe four and a half or five years next time.

It turned out there was just a little piece of bone that was jamming the disposal and it was otherwise in perfect condition. Fixed quickly for no charge. Ron did not even check. This was either incompetence or just an attempt to rip us off.
Description of Work: Our garbage disposal stopped working, just make a humming noise when we flipped the switch. I called Michigan plumbing to examine / fix it.

They are way too expensive that's why I have found other plumbers to use. The first time they charged me $200 and the next time I had it done by somebody else it was quite bit less probably $75. It was a big difference. They were punctual and usually pretty good, anyway I decided to use somebody else after that. The work was fine, but they charged high. He was like this is the faucet we installed, because it's cooler, and its guaranteed for life and the thing is fine and the thing is at the time I could have floored to pay for it, but looking back I would not have them. In 2008 I had them clean by drain, it was $235. I would not use them.
Description of Work: I used Michigan Plumbing couple of years ago. I have to have my house to street draining tree roots removed from it because I have trees that will plug it up and I have found that it's better for me to do it annually. In January 2010 they installed kitchen faucet and also some faucet in the bathroom as well. In 2008 they also cleaned by drains.
