These guys had next day service available after I was having no luck getting anybody else out within a week or two. Outstanding service, professionalism, and quality of work. They also did the electrical hookup for my dishwasher when other plumbers would not.

You called us and asked us how much we charge to snake a drain: I told you average is 150.00 you said hmm well ok I'm waiting for a guy who usually does it for me to see when he can do it. I told you ok no problem, you seemed hesitant so I told you were good people theres no tricks with us no hidden charges that we hit you with in the end, you said ok let me wait til my regular guy calls me back and then we ended our 1st call. about an 25 minutes later you called me (not realizing you already called me) and asked me how much we charge to snake a drain I told you that you had already called us and we told you 150.00 I said we are pretty cheap in our pricing, (another words your probably not gonna find it cheaper) you replied well ok ill call you back if I decide to do it, I said ma'am what would it take for you to say yes, how much would you be able to pay to get it done, you said I dont know that's why I'm calling around, I told you our prices are really cheap and we have a good name and we're good people, you said ok ill let you know and hung up. When I asked you ma'am what would it take for you to say yes and how much you would be able to pay it was because I figured maybe you didn't have the full 150.00 and I was actually considering helping you with what you had, I dont know how I ended up with a bad review, you got insulted by me saying our prices are cheap? my reputation speaks for itself I try to make sure everyone is happy, please reconsider your review as it is damaging to what I try so hard at and my regular customers reviews reflect just what kind of person I am.

Kevin is an extraordinary professional and human being! He does an outstanding job at a reasonable price. Kevin is a compassionate caring professional! He definitely leads by example! Kevin noticed a fire hazard in my basement and showed me how to correct the problem and even helped me move my stove. What professional would do that? It had nothing to do with plumbing! A1 Bargain Plumbing leads the pack!!!!!

Used this service based on past reviews. I feel they more than surpassed these reviews for me. I was stuck with a situation that required immediate attention. They were able ti fit me in. When the individuals arrived, they were very polite and presented themselves as someone who knew what they were doing. Working as a team, they evaluated my situation and in what I would consider record time and corrected all deficiencies. The area where they were working was fully cleaned up with no evidence that they were even there. I also consider the cost for the visit a very reasonable rate. They will be considered far any future plumbing work I need and I will also recommend them to others.

This is the 3rd time I have had this company over to fix my problems - Ryan the owner is beyond super. Very nice, and his work is excellent - no mess left behind and he tests everything before he leaves. Very very professional! I told him I would keep him on speed dial since I have never met someone who is so honest and makes sure his work is complete. I would definitely recommend this company, prices to me are very reasonable !

Needed a corroded drain pipe replaced. Scheduling an appt was easy and the work was completed quickly and to my satisfaction. Did a nice job protecting the area during the removal phase and cleaned up after the job. Their estimate was reasonable compared to others.

We had them in a little over a month ago when our kitchen sink started leaking. They fixed everything and were awesome and fair. Since then, I've been calling them for every little issue we've had and they are incredibly responsive, they do the job WELL, and they do not try to cheat you. I'm so glad I have a great contact now for plumbing issues.

I can't say enough good about this guy! This is our third time in 5 yrs using his plumbing and snaking services. He is so analytical in assessing the problem, very good at quickly visualizing what he can do to make the problem not only go away, but be better than it was in the original construction, and he is ridiculously conscientious about keeping everything so clean. If you are worried about plumbers that leave a mess, he works so hard to keep every nook and cranny clean! I wish all service technicians were like Kevin!! You can't go wrong with A1-Bargain plumbing!

OK. Would have given them an “A” if they had been a little neater, cleaned up after they were done. New disposal works fine. I asked for and was given a cash discount. The guys did the job in a couple two hours.

We allways make it a rule to cleanup after ourselves, I'm sorry if we missed something at your home, if you would have called us about it I would have came out myself personally to take care of it. Hopefully next time your 100 percent satisfied. It looks like they gave you a discount for some reason, our average starting price for a disposal is 325.00 and you paid 300.00

Called several places on a Thursday night when our kitchen sink backed up. Kevin was the first to call me back. He came out Friday morning and tried to snake the drain first from the kitchen, but hit a pretty solid blockage. At this point he already suspected a rotted/broken pipe under the house. He tried running water and it backed up. He told me to text him when the water drained again so he could come back with a larger machine and go through the cleanout in the basement (which was painted/rusted shut and rounded off). I contacted him a couple of hours later and his guys came right back, cut open the cleanout and replaced the cap, and snaked with a larger machine. The end of the cable was covered in clay, so we knew it was a broken pipe. They quoted the job, but were not able to start the work until Tuesday. Paper plates and eating out for the weekend, but otherwise no big deal. They arrived right on time Tuesday and got right to work covering the floor, walls, and even my driveway with plastic sheet! Very nice. The jackhammering wasn't too loud or disruptive. Once they exposed the pipe they dug until they found the break, and a clean section to tie into. Replaced with PVC and refilled with gravel and concrete, a little thicker than it had been. They wrapped up the same day, and cleaned up beautifully. Everything works great again, and I will definitely call them for anything in the future!

*Caveat- I did not have the opportunity to use A1 Bargain Plumbing because they never returned my call.* I called prior to their posted start time on Sunday because my drain was backing up (we only have one bathroom). I fully expected to get voicemail, as their posted "opening hours" weren't until 12pm. I was hoping to leave a message, and possibly be added to their schedule for the day, or at least for the next day (Monday). To my surprise, a kind woman answered, and took my information. She said they were booked for Sunday, but had appointments on Monday -- however, she said, "let me see what I can do" . I waited until noon to see if, perhaps, someone would call me back when they arrived at the shop to start the shift. Nothing. I waited until 1pm. Nothing. All day, thinking, "well, they have good reviews- surely they will call". Then Monday morning. No call. I guess I was mistaken to think that, based on the glowing reviews, that I would get a call back with an appointment. Emergency or not. I called another company after 24 hours of waiting, and they were at my house in 30 minutes. (Maybe I was stupid to wait). What a shame. Even if A1 had just called and said, "We can't help you at all. Ever. Please call someone else. We have no appointments available all week", or, "you have a crawl space, and we don't want to go in it, so call someone else", I would have understood and appreciated their professionalism (although, as it turns out no one had to go into the crawl). But no return call is just..... really bad PR.

On sundays we have only 1 plumber working and the Sunday you said you called us on we had a full days worth of jobs, the lady you talked to told you we are very busy but she would see what she could do, she also told you that "if" we could help you we would call you back, at that point I think maybe you could have tried calling other companies if you had an emergency. Sorry for you disappointment in us but were a small company and try really hard. We would never commit to something and not follow through with it.

The price of 185.00 was given to you over the phone ! If you didnt like it at that point why have us come out ???? 185.00 to remove a toilet, replace a wax ring and reset a toilet is not deserving of a F grade, it's expensive to run a business, advertising, liability insurance, vehicle and equipment maintenance, technicians want to be paid to do a good job, honestly if you want to save money look on YouTube for do it yourself videos and it wont cost anything. These type of reviews are very upsetting because we try so hard to satisfy everyone and yet this is what we get.

Did not show when he said he would. Called him after he was 1-1/2 hrs late. He asked us to give him another hour then sent someone else that wasn’t part of his business without even asking us first. The man he sent did take care of our problems. But he wasn’t the one we had contact with.

I looked up your name and address in our computer system and it shows no where so I am positive you have the wrong company, you should try to be more positive about who your reviewing before you just go and start typing your dissatisfactions because your negative review is damaging to what we work so hard for and the worst part about it is it wasn't even us !
