I called them on a Monday and this tech named Rick came by snaked the wrong drain cracked my pipe and in less than 5 days I had the same issue and then they show me this root from that wasn’t even there when my brother was by his and sends the owner(me) the picture stating he pulled that from the drain lol like how is he going to pull that from my indoor drain when it was just a normal clog. They wanted me to get a hydro jet. But when the issue began I called them back and they said they were going to charge me again for doing their job wrong! The manager Vernor was not only unprofessional but very rude when I always scheduled a hydro jet with them but only asked if I will get an discount since it backed up after they were trying to fix it. He rudely said no and said maybe I should go with another company. Wow I had no patience, hung up and did that and that was the best thing I did because god saved me from losing $900+ for a hydrojet! I had my plumber my brother used for years and it only took him 180 and gave me a 30 day warranty. Coming from a plumber he said these companies do that, will try to lie scam and show the same pics to other families just to use their service. Its sad how they do this! I pray with my heart that ppl who do this don’t get away!

AWESOME... Their motto is "NO BULL". I called 3 other plumbers to get my drains snaked and it was....we need to give you an estimate, come out and look, its $49 to show up, that money can go towards your bill...if we have to snake to the sewer its $285... I call Bison and say... I just need to drains snaked... how much.. $65 per drain is their answer. We can be there tomorrow. They showed up on time, came in, did a great job. Did not even charge me for the toilet, in fact, they adjusted my shower drain so it would stop up and I could use the bath tub. They went the extra mile....even got me a price in about 2 minutes on putting in a better toilet with a higher / better flushing ability. $385 installed. "We install hundreds of these, NEVER had anyone call us to come back and do any repair on it" was what they said. These guys just really really want to go a great job at a great price with NO BULL and they want to be the first person you call when someone happens in your house regarding plumbing. They understand that THEY need ME, that I don't need them....and they want me to want them to be #1...and with me, they are. Have the highest level of confidence in these people. I'd send them to take care of my 79 year old mother in a second and not worry that they were going to take advantage of her.

I called Bison on August 23, 2016 when a foul smell appeared in our bathroom. Andrew was able to fit us in on short notice, which we greatly appreciated. When he came he took pictures of the plumbing and told us his boss, Jeff, would call us with an estimate the next day. TWO FULL DAYS later, I called and spoke to Kathy. She said she would have Jeff call me. The NEXT day, Jeff called with an estimate of $1,125 to provide an offset P-trap and bathtub fixtures - which is more than the going rate, but we wanted this in a rush. I gave him the go ahead and was told parts were ordered and he told me that he would call to schedule the installation. On September 6, 2016, Ray came to my house to take measurements (meaning the parts had not been ordered). He told me that he would "find the best price" for me and I would get a call when they could install. On September 9, 2016, Andrew returned to the house for the installation - but no one had called to set up the appointment and the only one home was my teenage daughter! I called and spoke to Vern, who apologized and had Andrew come back in the afternoon. This meant an unexpected afternoon off, but we needed the shower fixed, so we were glad to have Andrew come back. When he began the installation, he found that the parts were the wrong size. On September 14, 2016 I called to speak to Jeff, the owner. I explained that I was frustrated by the lack of communication throughout the process and wanted to know when we could get this wrapped up. He told me that he would call and see when the part could be shipped and "maybe" he could ask for express shipping. We were more than two weeks from the initial call! He told me if it could be in by Friday, he could do a Saturday installation - and wouldn't charge me for all the extra trips. For real?! Those "extra trips" were mistakes on his end! On September 17th, Andrew was finally able to complete the installation and did a great job (I even gave him money to buy himself birthday lunch). I asked him to have Jeff email me a detailed invoice and give me a call about my experience. As of today, I have seen and heard nothing from Bison, but a full charge to my credit card. Andrew went above and beyond. I would write a glowing review for him, but my experience with Bison Plumbing was nothing but bull.

This went so well, I don't know where to start. They were by far the most professional, nicest, and be st contractor I have ever dealt with. Vern came on the first day to go over everything with me again and introduce the guys. They were friendly and let me know every step of the way what they were doing and how they would be doing it. Vern called in the evening of the first day (this was supposed to be a 3 day job but they finished in two) to make sure everything went well and to see if I had any concerns. Joe and RJ were by far the most professional and friendly contractors. They kept me up to date, worked with the bathroom designer to make sure all the plumbing for the new bath was correct and even got the bathroom contractors phone number to up date him. The BEST part is they came in $400 dollars under the quoted price. They cleaned up everything beautifully even sweeping the dirt off the driveway. FANTASTIC experience and I will always call them in the future.

Second time using Bison, completely satisfied and would definitely use them again. Very happy!!

This company was recommended to us by our city's building inspector, which is quite a compliment to the company! The team arrived promptly and were extremely polite and friendly. They were able to offer alternative solutions to an ugly resolution of the problem (installing a clean-out access in my brand new tile floor, which would not allow the use of the heated flooring mat that lies beneath the tiles). The team was efficient and clean. The city inspector happened to stop by (for a separate issue) and gave great praise to the work that had so far been completed by Bison. The team had estimated 1-2 days to complete the job, and managed to complete the work well within one day. We are completely satisfied and impressed with the work done by this company. We will definitely use them in the future for any plumbing needs.
Description of Work: Installed a back-flow valve and clean-out access for an existing basement bathroom. This is a "fix" of a mess a contractor ( NOT Bison) made when building the bathroom.

Returned my call despite being closed for the day. Temperature in the -10s, so working conditions and roads were horrid and hazardous! Promised to come and help no matter. And he did! Brought exactly what equipment was needed, did the job quickly, and checked to make sure there were no leaks or other issues. It was perfect! Thank you, Bison!

I called Bison Plumbing to a rental property to snake out the sewer pipe in the basement. A few days later I got a bill for twice as much as I was quoted. When I asked about it I was told they also cleaned the pipe by the laundry tub which was clogged up. The tenant did not know it was clogged up, Bison's plumber told them it was. I gave them the benefit of doubt and paid the bill. A few days later there was a problem at a different house that required a plumber. I called Bison again and asked them to snake out the pipes there and I made it clear at this point that they need to call me before they do any additional work. Vern went there reasonably fast and called me to say this house has no clean out. He said this is common in older houses, he can go through a vent on the roof which would cost around$300 and is rarely effective. He would recommend that I have them dig up the pipes and add a clean out, which will cost around $1600.00. I told him I will have to think about that. The next morning I got a call from Vern to see if I'm ready to have the work done. I told him that I think there has to be a different way, he again told me going through the roof is not effective and the clean out in the crawlspace is not accessible. Hmmmmm he told me the day before there is no clean out. I asked why it's not accessible and his response was that the crawlspace is filled with feces!! and quot;it's really bad!!and quot; he said. Obviously this is an issue that needs to be addressed so I told him that I will have somebody look into that. I called a handyman to look at the crawlspace and see how bad it is and where that would be coming from. The handyman called me back and suggested I find an honest plumber. The only thing in the crawlspace was the clean out - in plain sight, and a few spiderwebs. I called a different plumber and the problems was taken care off in a few hours. Guess Vern does not like crawlspaces and has no problem having you spend $1600 to avoid him having to deal with one. Needless to say, I will never call them again.

I did not complete the service they suggested. Way to expensive for my budget, and in the end it was not necessary so I was glad that I did not spend that kind of money and that I had a friend to help me out.
Description of Work: They were ok, very polite and did a clean out in the basement but when we went outside to the big clean out pipe, in stead of trying to use the power snake there, they just looked at it and said they would have to come back with the hyrdo cutter at a cost of $750 with a 10% senior discount. When you are living on a limited income that kind of $'s is very scary. I did not get the work done, my friend came with his electric snake and had the pipe cleaned out in about 20 minutes. I know folks that have used them and they were recommended to me. I just could not justify spending that kind of money, I was fortunate to have someone who could help me out with the snake clean out. As of this writing I have had no problems.

Excellent! Workers were on time, professional and respectful. Job was done within the promised time frame, and the price was very fair (I have heard of this repair costing much more than what I was charged).
Description of Work: I have used Bison Plumbing several times in the past 6 years - last year when we had drainage/back-up problems, they used a camera in the line and determined that the main sewer line (laid in 1953) was broken. Front yard had to be dug up andthe line replaced.

I didn't use them. They took forever to get a quote to me and by the time they did I had found a different person. Their quote was high anyway. If they had responded they might have been in the running. They sent something about problems with their email servers but that's not my problem. They obviously needed to do better email services. I didn't talk to them directly. I might get a quote in the future to see if they were better at their emails.
