I called Taylor Services on Monday morning because our basement toilet was leaking. I had removed the toilet and observed that the flange that holds the toilet down had rusted beyond use. The screws that held it to the cement floor were badly rusted. Taylor Services was able to add me to their schedule the same day. They gave me a 1 hour window for arrival and called when they were twenty minutes away. Very courteous and professional. The work was also performed professionally in just over an hour. Nate was the plumber who did the work. Included in the $232 cost was a new stainless steel flange, new wax ring, and reinstallation of the toilet. This was an excellent service and I will definitely use them in the future.
Description of Work: Removed and replaced rusted to floor toilet flange and new wax ring.

The plumber came out on time. We fortunately had shut offs put in since we have really long lines between the road - house-barn-second barn. The plumber shut off each section and confirmed which segment was leaking. He quickly diagnosed the issue on the segment when he found the frost-proof hydrant was not shutting off completely. He adjusted the hydrant and confirmed the meter was not showing any slow leak. The office left a message a couple days later to make sure everything was satisfactory. I rechecked the meter a week later and no leaks indicated! We highly recommend Taylor Plumbing! He have used them for several plumbing jobs and have had great experiences each time! I'd like to update our review and say our next two water bills were half of what they were before the repair! I only wish I would have called them sooner instead of just wondering if we had a leak since our bills kept increasing. This is a great company to call if you need plumbing repairs!
Description of Work: Our water bill had steadily increased. The water district checked out meter and said we definitely had a leak in the line. We called and set up an appointment with Taylor Plumbing because we had very good service from them before.

Two plumbers started work at approximately 11 AM and finished at about 3 PM. They arrived in two large trucks that were well supplied with parts. Since the baths had new tile floors, a longer than usual fitting was required to set the toilets. This did not hold up the project since the fittings were delivered by a third plumber. The plumbers were well prepared to work on relatively old plumbing. They had all the connectors and other items needed for the installations. They were careful to check for leaks and sink drains. Some drain clearing was required.
Description of Work: Installed faucets for vanity sinks in three bathrooms, installed faucets and shower heads in two bathrooms, installed faucet and disposal in kitchen, installed two toilets, cleared drains in two bathrooms.

I cannot say enough good things about Taylor Plumbing. Our water heater experienced Spontaneous Massive Existence Failure on a Tuesday. We got several quotes from plumbers and called Taylor on Friday to set the appointment. The appointment was for between 1-2. At 1pm they called me to tell me that they were loading my new tank into the van and would be there in about 10 minutes. They were professional, clean, courteous and fast. They tested everything to make sure that all faucets and showers were getting water.
Description of Work: Fast. Friendly. Job well done.

About 4 days after coming out to provide me an estimate they called back saying they were too busy to do the work I needed to have done. I can appreciate that but wish they would have told me sooner. The person doing the estimate should have been able to tell me that when he was onsite. So, I would think they could have referred me to another company in the area to do the work. They had no recommendations for me. That was frustrating. Any professional company should know their market and competitors. Also, when I asked if they could at least provide a ballpark estimate they said no and didn't have the time. So, my project was delayed a few weeks while calling around to other companies and getting quotes. In the end, it was $3,000 day and half project. I am shocked Taylor Plumbing could not estimate that or provide further assistance. Maybe all they are good for is unclogging a drain or are a company that is too busy to provide quality service. I don't recommend them based on my experience.

Response from Taylor Plumbing Services Inc
We realize your frustration and are sorry we inconvenienced you. Since we were several weeks behind, we did not want your job delayed because of us. Part of our reputation is estimating our jobs accurately so there are no surprises in the end. To do this does take time. For us to prepare a bid, as you requested, to compare with other company's bids you were receiving did not seem feasible to us. Yes, we do know some of our competitors, but do not know their work and are not willing to suggest someone that may or may not do an outstanding job for you. Fortunately we have been able to procure another plumbing technician and are hoping we will better be able to handle all of our customers. We try hard to gain new customers and keep our established ones, so this circumstance was hard on us as well. We hope your job was done to your staisfaction and you are enjoying your remodel.

Disappointed. Called out a second time for the same problem. (very low water pressure at sink facet). First time, very low water pressure on hot water side of kitchen sink, plumber decided it was a pipe issue and replaced piping. A few days later, very low water pressure on hot and cold water side of kitchen sink, plumber cleaned out facet aerator and determined it was a water heater issue. Spoke with water heater company, they say it's not a water heater issue as the problem is on both hot and cold water sides, not covered under warranty. Spoke with company that installed water heater and they don't think it is a water heater issue either but are willing to come out and look at it for the cost of a service call. Spoke with Water Dept and all water pipes in our area less than 3 years old. (one thought was it could be another piping issue). Very frustrated and disappointed.

Thank you for your comment. We are sorry to hear your debris problem is still unresolved. We replaced the hot water supply line to your kitchen faucet because we found it was packed full of what we believe to be dip tube. We flushed the hot side for a while and cleaned debris from the faucet aerator. Since the dip tube is located in the water heater, we still believe this is where your problem originates. The debris may be from the previous water heater, but either way it can be difficult to clear from the system. It may take multiple flushes or even possibly cutting into or replacing some hot water lines.

It was a very good experience. Brian was very personable and efficient. He took the time to warn me that there might be damage to the countertop when he removed the old sink (There was not but I appreciated his honesty up front.) The work went well, and the sink and faucet look awesome. More importantly, nothing leaks in the kitchen or the bathroom! I would definitely use this company again.

My sewer line started backing up over the weekend. I had a contractor that was to set a new toilet in a remodeled bathroom on Monday. I called LuAnn at Taylor Plumbing when they opened Monday morning at 8a. She needed to check the schedule and would call me back. She called back within 30 minutes and would be able to get me in that morning. Nate arrived at 9:45am and got to work. He cleaned the sewer line out 100 feet from the inside of the house and got a few tree roots. He was done by 10:30sm. I also asked Nate about my water heater not performing as I expected and he advised on probable cause and gave me some quotes for replacement water heaters. My rating of B for quality was due to the lack of cleaning of the waste around the drains. Some was there when he began, but additional was caused by the augering and was not removed.
