TOM FROM ZELL PLUMBING ''SNAKED'' A KITCHEN DRAIN THAT SUDDENLY CLOGGED. IT PROBABLY HADN''T BEEN CLEANED SINCE THE HOUSE WAS BUILT 65 YEARS AGO! IT TOOK 2 TRIES BUT NOW MY KITCHEN DRAIN RUNS QUICKLY AND SMOOTHLY. TOM ALSO GAVE ME SOME SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO KEEP THE DRAINS CLEAN WITHOUT USING TOXIC MATERIALS. AS MESSY AS THE JOB COULD HAVE BEEN, HE LEFT THE KITCHEN AND UNDER THE SINK CLEAN. I''VE USED ZELL PLUMBING BEFORE AND I''LL USE THEM AGAIN - THEY''VE ALWAYS BEEN VERY RESPONSIVE.

TOM SCHILLING CAME OUT AND SPENT SEVERAL HOURS REPLACING LEAKY PIPES AND VALVES. HE WAS FRIENDLY, SHOWED US EACH ITEM THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND WHY, AND GAVE ADVICE ON WAYS TO KEEP THE DRAINS CLEANER. AFTER 4 MONTHS THE REPAIRS HAVE GIVEN NO PROBLEMS. HE WAS ABLE TO REPRESSURIZE OUR WELL HOLDING TANK EVEN THOUGH WELLS ARE NOT USUALLY PART OF THEIR WORK, WHICH BOUGHT US ENOUGH TIME TO FIND A REPLACEMENT. THE DISHWASHER REFUSED TO SHOW ITS SPORADIC LEAK IN HIS PRESENCE, BUT HE GAVE ADVICE ON HOW TO TRACE THE SOURCE OF THE LEAK WHEN IT DOES. DISCUSSED OPTIONS FOR FIXING THE TOILET LEAK, WHICH WE DECIDED AGAINST SINCE IT''S IN AN UNUSED BATHROOM. HE ALSO NOTICED LOW WATER PRESSURE IN SEVERAL SINKS THAT WE HAD ASSUMED WAS NORMAL AND SHOWED US HOW TO IMPROVE IT BY SIMPLE CLEANING OF THE FAUCET FILTER. WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH BOTH THE WORK AND TOM''S FRIENDLY MANNER, AND WILL CALL HIM AGAIN IF ANY OTHER WORK IS NEEDED.
Description of Work: REPLACED 3 LEAKY SHUTOFF VALVES AND SUPPLY LINES, CLEANED DRAINS IN 2 SINKS AND 1 SHOWER, INSTALLED NEW P-TRAP FOR ONE SINK, CHECKED FOR DISHWASHER LEAK AND TOILET LEAK, REPRESSURIZED WELL TANK.

WHAT I LIKED WAS HOW RESPONSIVE THEY WERE, WHAT I DIDNT LIKE WAS THE SERIVCE CHARGE WHICH THEY DID NOT TELL ME ABOUT WHEN I CALLED AND WAS JUST ON THE BILL.
