I was very happy with the result. They were able to clear the blockage within a half hour and did a good job cleaning up. I am very satisfied with their work. I will be contacting them again for whatever plumbing needs I have in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone I know. Thank you!

Very professional & punctual. Waked us through the existing sump pump operations and offered an alternate value than that was included in the Angie's List deal. Paid $98 extra for the quieter option. Got rid of 1 on the things that go bump in the middle of the night !! Talked about a good time to replace the sump pump and also got an opinion from him on another plumbing problem. Excellent service.

It was nice to see my drain with clear running water running under my basement floor for once. The service man made several suggestions how to keep it clear and running free. He was also the first person to explain how all the plumbing in my little house was hooked up and how it worked. He made since where as in the past companies were always guessing or feeding me a bunch of Bologna maybe because I'm a girl? Thank you.
Description of Work: He in clogged hair and junk in my drain and made surer he water ran free and clear. This was the first time and first company that had the drain was cleared so completely in the several times I've had the same drain cleaned. I just had it cleaned 10 months ago. I am very happy so far.

Best plumber who has ever done work in my home. Nice, honest, great prices, quick response. Fixed my leaky toilet in 5 minutes flat. Proceeded to inspect all of the plumbing in my home for nothing. Gave me a couple of quotes for things on my to-do list for "whenever I am ready" that were MUCH lower than previous big-name plumbing company that I'd used. I seriously love this place. I will call them for all of my future plumbing needs.

Would not provide a service unless I told them how I found out about the company. May be a great company but I would never know they simply hung up on me.

[Member Name Removed] , I'm sorry that you are unhappy that we did not provide you with service. But we find if a customer is so difficult that they refuse to answer a simple question like where they heard about us, then chances are very likely that they will continue to be difficult and will probably be more of a headache to deal with then is worth the payment. As you were told on the phone we track our advertising to help keep our overhead low and in turn be able to keep our prices low. Your response to us was not a polite I'd rather not say. But a rude, demanding response. There are thousands of wonderful, kind, curtious customers in this world that we enjoy serving and make what we do worth while. I consider it my right to maintain my sanity and refuse to serve people that obviously have a chip on their shoulder.

The service person came right on time, and we were given the heads up on the arrival time both via call and email. He covered his shoes, was very polite and really took the time to understand the problem. I was very impressed with the fact that he thought of many options without just jumping to the most expensive. Once he decided his best route he went for it. The problem (our toilet was bubbling when we were showering causing the shower to backup) was improved greatly, but the next afternoon it started to happen again. They came back again, resnaked, and only charged us a travel fee. This solved the problem completely. I can't say enough good things about them. I would use again in a heartbeat.

Very easy company to work with. I had a camera inspection done by a different company and it revealed some light blockage about 70 ft from the clean out. A gentleman from Universal came out, on time and very polite, to do the job for 1/2 what the other company quoted. I won't hesitate to contact them for future plumbing needs based on my first experience with them.

Hello Mrs. [Member name], It was a pleasure speaking with you today. I am glad that we were able to clarify the work you need done and what the $39.00 deal that you purchased entitles you to. Creith is looking forward to coming out on Saturday to replace your drum trap and re-route your drain as quoted :)

Creith arrived as scheduled and covered his plans. He was able to install the water pressure back-up without shutting off the water. He installed all new Pex pipe, a secondary PVC drain to the outside of the house, cleaned the existing sump crock, installed the new sump, the new water-pressure back-up and tested both multiple times. He cleaned the area beautifully once he was done. We purchased the water pressure back-up under an Angies' List Deal.

Some confusion at first with the initial appointment but once we had a reliable way to communicate they were very fast and courteous. Very professional work and they explained everything and tried hard to help me out based on my needs. Identified additional problems when I asked and offered to stay and fix those as well. The price is what I expected it based on the service and professionalism. They even cleaned up the sink area and put all the knick knacks back

We had another plumber out last week to replace our old shower/tub faucet with a new Delta kit. We were not happy with that work and decided to call Universal Plumbing when it started leaking over the weekend. They immediately found the problem which was a bad solder joint on the tub spout. They re-soldered the fitting & fixed the leak. They also installed the correct Delta tub spout for us and caulked it. We should have just called them the first time and in the future we will.

He arrived within the window in which we expected him in a clean and professional truck. He inspected our basement plumbing, investigated a problem we were having with our water heater and made some recommendations for its replacement. HE NEVER TRIED TO HARD SELL US ON ANYTHING! :) He also explained what would have to be done to install a bathroom in the basement and how the service would be done. He explained the "tic tic tic" sound in our pipes that had been driving me crazy! When we're ready to have our plumbing services done, we'll absolutely feel comfortable calling Universal.
Description of Work: He checked out our tank less water heater and gave us advice on our options. He also gave us an estimate for a 3/4 bath that we'd like to have. The above is a quote for future service not for a cost of services today. We had out $39 for 3 years of inspection from Angie's List and there were no additional costs today.
