St Paul Pipeworks

They replaced my basement sink, quoted me the exact price and provided a great service.

The service was great. They were quick in coming out, polite, friendly, and did a great job. We were pleased with their service the first time and chose to use them again.

They were very straightforward, prompt in getting us the services we needed, and very reasonably priced.

Phil was prompt, pleasant and efficient. He worked well with the City of St. Paul to get my water supply to the house shut off and turned back on efficiently. The work seems to be well done. The price seemed a little steep in light of the fact that the entire job only took only 90 minutes..

Phil Quinlan was at our home on 11-20-12 to repair the kitchen faucet. It was determined it wasn't repairable so it was necessary for us to pick out another faucet. This was done (ordered through plumbing supplier) and Phil returned with the faucet on 12-12-2012 and completed the installation. He was on time, very professional and we are very satisfied with the new faucet.

They were prompt enough- they were delayed but called to let me know. Phil did most of the work, he was polite, explained things well and was very careful about keeping the floors clean. He did a very good job of cleaning up. The work appears to be very well done. My only adverse comment would be on the cost. Although I didn't have the luxury of a comparison, it seems pricey.

Dave was prompt to return my call and he was up front with how much everything was going to cost before he started the work. He also provided estimates on possible future projects such as a new water heater and bathroom sink pop-ups. I thought the water shutoff valve was going to have to be replaced, but Dave said that it probably just needed to be repacked. He was correct and saved us some money by repairing it instead of replacing it. The corroded screw on our bathtub overflow pipe seemed almost impossible to extract, but he was able to drill it out. We will be calling him if we need to have other plumbing work done.

Charlie came to our house on short notice and replaced a leaking, under sink, shut off valve, as well as it's neighbor, and connecting pipes. Also fixed a leaky faucet. He thoroughly explained what he proposed to do and how much it would cost. We discussed having him do some other fixes, but decided it wasn't worthwhile at this time.

Very well. He was even early, which I couldn't make, but then arrived on time and started the work right away after we discussed the leak and the new valves. Then, he fixed the outside fixture. I was so pleased with the work I gave him some of our oven-baked pizza for lunch.

I feel like I got ripped off because of the plastic crappy spigot. I had a very nice one that performed well, this one is junk.

Much more responsible and responsive than the other 2 plumbers I called. Very friendly and explained the different options to me. They did quality work and also helped me with a couple extra things while they were here - like giving me a sleeve to put over the hose coming from my washing machine so that the sink drain doesn't get so clogged up with lint. I would highly recommend them.

It went very well. Charlie takes charge.

Very professional, treats you like your his family.

Very couteeous and on time. Did everything expected and explained it

A plumber was needed by another contractor in the midst of a bathroom shower tile replacement project due to poor work by a previous contractor. I was surprised that Dave from St. Paul Pipeworks was able to fit in a service call within 2 hours (I was expecting the project to be delayed a day or two). He removed the tub spout quickly and since he was there I asked him to look at a leak in the basement. He explained it was likely the old lead pipe or perhaps the wax ring that was leaking. Another plumber looked at the issue and "didn't see any problems." It had been leaking into the basement through wood floor boards for a year. Dave made a couple other suggestions in the basement given the old house (water heater replacement, old pipes, etc.) in a non-sales pressure mode - just things to watch out for. Charlie came on the 2nd call to fix the toilet leak. He was professional, explained things well, wore booties, laid tarps, etc. He did explain he had to fit in another call due to a city inspector, but assured me the work would get done that day as this was my only toilet. He also came up with a better solution to seat the toilet given the tile floor height changed - it no longer wobbles and I don't see the shims anymore. Charlie also corrected the toilet knobs that were installed upside down; realigned a shower head and spout so they no longer leak. Both Dave and Charlie were very respectful and professional. I am happy to have found new plumbers to work on my old house. They also both sent me thank you notes - very nice touch!

On time. Quick. Friendly - put me at ease. Did a nice job.

Great. They answered questions, gave me an estimate before they started work, and discussed other projects I'm considering without trying to upsell me anything.

See the paragraph above - we were very pleased with the services.

My toilet has been rocking on top of the tile in the upstairs bathroom for many years and leaks finally erroded a hole in the downstairs bathroom ceiling. I figured it was an easy repair that I could do, maybe new flange bolts and a wax seal, but a small voice was telling me to call a plumber because I could not turn off the wall valve. As Dave the plumber was removing the hose between the tank and the wall valve the pipe extension (sometimes called a nipple) broke away from the supply line inside the wall (UPDATE: due to corrosion from a leak that I didn't know about). Dave had the tools and parts to rethread the main line (inside the wall) install a new nipple extension and valve. I would not have anticipated this and easily gotten in over my head. Plus to do this repair the main water valve had to be turned off so the whole house was without water for this repair. Dave reinstalled a new wax ring and mounted the toilet only to find that the toilet still rocked. So he removed the toilet, drilled new holes and re-bolted the flange to the floor. This cost him a new wax ring, but he did the right thing and made a good repair. Dave the plumber used my new parts where he saw fit and saved me a bit of money. Now that the repairs are complete the humidity in my house has gone down 15-20% and my sinus's have changed. I'd call St Paul Pipeworks again for plumbing repairs

I had scheduled to get a bathroom sink fixed that was dripping, and literally running a stream of water from it. It was a Price Pfister faucet that needed to be looked at and fixed, if possible. The plumber discussed with me options to fix my internal valve, or replace with either models he had in his van, or with a new fixture I would need to obtain, if I wanted it to match the old faucet. I went to Gopher Plumbing supply to get the part, and it was fixed. While I was doing this errand, I also had a loose seal on my kitchen faucet. I asked if he could fix that. It was a Delta, much easier for him to fix, since they have standard parts, unlike Price Pfister. He was able to fix the kitchen sink while I was gone, and for extra good measure, adjusted a tube under the sink I asked about. Overall, very positive experience.

The job went very well. Charlie was prompt in arriving. He had to cut a portion of the tile out behind the bathroom vanity to get at the connection, but it was a very small portion and he was very neat using a special cutting tool to be more precise. The cut out portion was much smaller and neater than I had expected and I was very pleased. Afterwards, he took me through my house and he pointed out pipes that I might consider replacing in the future and spoke with me about options for replacing my aging water heater. He was a very pleasant and knowledgeable contractor. A joy to have in my house.

Everything went great. We called on Tuesday afternoon & got an appointment for Wednesday afternoon (the day before Thanksgiving!). Charlie from St. Paul Pipeworks was on time, called on his way over and completed everything neatly and thoroughly. He even put down tarps to protect the floor when he was going in & out of the house. I've never had a plumber be so neat & clean.

One of the 3 Owners did the work, Charlie. He was very professional and helped to solve my drain hardware change. He had all the parts with him and was able to complete the work in 1 service call. I was very appreciative of his help and he was very nice to work with. I would recommend these guys to anyone, including a family member. The only thing I felt was rough was that they gave a 2 hour window and came at 5 minutes to the end of the window. For working folks this could be tough to handle, but maybe its the norm.

He was just super. I called in the morning as I noticed a pin-hole leak in the pipe leading to the toilet spraying water all over my bathroom. He was able to squeeze me in almost immediately and stopped by later that morning. The work was great. He was also able to replace some old pipe leading to my sink for less than half of what a different plumber had told me it would cost. He is courteous, honest, and does good work at a fair price. He is my new go-to plumber!

An earring fell into the sink this morning, and I as loosened the pipe trap the pipe broke. I called St. Paul Pipeworks because they were rated highly on Angie's list. They came right over, replaced the pipe, rescued my earring (which was not in the trap, but stuck in the pipe) and made my day! The cost included the Angie's coupon discount. FABULOUS! I will definitely be using them for all of my future plumbing needs.
