Response from Three Way Plumbing Services
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us as well as the opportunity to respond. The fact that you gave us an overall rating of an ‘F’ for work not performed is confusing. I would like to clarify some details left out. When calling our office initially, you stated the ‘tub/shower faucet wasn’t working’. Upon scheduling, you were informed of the dispatch/evaluation fee of $79 to send a highly-skilled plumbing technician to your home to evaluate the issue. The technician called during your time frame when on the way, evaluated the situation and put ALL your options in writing along with pricing and guarantees. The various options ranged from $401-$1898 and was not just a single option for $955. You chose the option to take your business elsewhere and have the work completed by someone else, which is your prerogative. That is why we Always give all options in writing before beginning any work. You only paid the dispatch/evaluation fee of $79 plus tax (which is out of our hands and the State of NC requires) for a professional diagnosis as explained up front to all customers prior to booking the call. We are very transparent in our pricing, and I do not apologize for this transparency. In regards to the pricing you were quoted by “2 other plumbers;” I have no idea what their price was based on, what option compared to ours (I can only assume it was Not the $955 option you claim to compare it to.) I have no idea whether they were actual licensed plumbers, a handyman, what their pricing is based on, whether it was site unseen or based on our diagnosis or if the same parts would be used. What I do know is we have been in business over 20 years and have a high rating with Angie’s List because of the way we do business here at Three Way Plumbing–educating our customers and allowing them to make all decisions based on their specific needs and budget and being upfront each step of the way. I am sorry that we are not the company for your but wish you luck in the future.

Three Way Plumbing was great to deal with. We called after hours but they called us back first thing the next day (we didn't have an emergency). They were able to schedule someone out to look at our project within just a few days. We had an unusual situation with a large house an a commercial hot water heater in place - they discussed options with us but actually made several recommendations to save us money and give us a better warranty. Then when they came to do the work, they called first, showed up even a little early for the work, were done before we knew it, cleaned up after themselves, were very respectful and polite. Would definitely hire them again!

Response from Three Way Plumbing Services
Thank you for taking the time to post your reply on Angie's List. In reviewing your service call, we found that our technician was at your home for 90 minutes. While he was there he rerouted the water pipe to the humidifier bypassing your water softener system. He also installed a new water main shutoff. We never want our customers to feel that we have taken advantage of them after the fact. Consequently, all options and pricing are discussed and explained before any work is begun. If any customer feels the options or the pricing is unreasonable, they have the option of declining our service. You were given the options, and the prices before any work was begun, and chose to move forward with the work. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

3 way did not offer an in kind replacement. The smaller unit, 50 gallon versus 75, was more expensive than a 75 gallon from another supplier. Plus the plumber showed me a pressure reading saying my water pressure was very high and I needed a new pressure reducing valve. Next plumber's gauge said pressure was fine.
Description of Work: requested installation of a new water heater. men who came were polite, but kept using negative words, like "oh boy who did this?", "I haven't seen one of these". Quote was high for a smaller unit (50 gallon vs 75) than existed. They said the unit I had was no longer available. Another plumber installed a unit same as existing for less than 3 way quote. 3 way also tested my water pressure and said it was very high, so I needed a PR valve. Next plumber found pressure to be fine.

Response from Three Way Plumbing Services
Thank you for sharing you're experience on Angie's List. While we regret that you chose to give our company an F rating, we nonetheless appreciate that Angie's List gives us the opportunity to respond and share some of the facts that are sometimes left out. You contacted our office on October 9 and we responded with same-day service. Your complaint was that the water heater in your crawl space was leaking. When our technician arrived and checked the water pressure, it measured at 140psi. The Plumbing Safety Code states that water pressure must be at or below 80 psi. Water pressure fluctuates throughout the day and is the highest during the high demand times when more homes are all using water, and 140 is extremely high regardless of the time of day. I cannot explain why the next plumber you had did not find a high-water pressure problem, but our technician did show this measurement to your husband and the gage has been tested and is 100% accurate. High water pressure is like high blood pressure and over time breaks down everything that high pressure water touches and reduces the lifespan of faucets, pipes, toilets, and water heaters. The purpose of a pressure reducing valve is to reduce the incoming pressure to your home to 80psi and below. You had a 75-gallon water heater that you wanted replaced and your husband also indicated that he wanted sand to be put down and the area leveled before the new water heater was installed. This was additional work at an additional expense. While 75-gallon water heaters are still available, they are not Readily available, as 40 and 50-gallon water heaters have become the norm making the 75 gallon ones rare. The technician did check with our various suppliers and found that they Could get it, but it would have been 2 weeks without hot water before they had it in hand. Consequently, he offered you a 50-gallon water heater instead. You chose not to go with this option, which was certainly your choice. Your existing 8-year old water heater was Not installed to the safety code-Not the safety code that existed 8 years ago and certainly Not the safety code that exists today. The existing piping and existing venting did not meet the minimum standards of today's safety code and needed to be reworked. You can certainly find plumbers that will install a water heater in its existing configuration, but we are not one of those companies. Our work is always done to existing code requirements, and we pull permits on all water heater installations. In addition, we will meet with inspectors and we will stand by our work if there is a problem down the road. There are some customers that care only about cost and not about code and permits; and, there are also plumbers that will do work without bringing it up to code, without pulling permits and without worrying about high water pressure. If you are one of those customers, than clearly we are not the plumbing company for you and you made the right choice. We would love to have had the opportunity to work with you, but given the restrictions you were placing on the install, we are happy that things worked out best for everyone. We do, however, urge you to periodically have your water pressure checked as it will save you a lot of time, money and stress further down the road. Thanks again for sharing your experience on Angie's List and we hope your water heater provides you with many years of good service!

It went well and the work was done in an efficient amount of time. For something so straight forward and less than an hour of work, I was really surprised at how expensive this was. In the picture, the drain was moved from in front of the floor joist to behind it.

Thanks so much for your posting your response on Angie's List. One of the reasons we give our prices, up front and before any work begins is so the customer is in total control of whether or not they are willing to pay the price quoted. Customer's sometimes look from a very specific perspective without taking into consideration all the work --both prior to and afterwards--that goes into making various repairs. We appreciate your confidence and thank you for your review. If you ever need us again, we are a phone call away!

Thank you for sharing your experience on Angie's List. On 6/21 you contacted our office for same day service for a backed up kitchen sink. You had tried to snake it out yourself but you were not able to get more than 6' into the line. Our technician arrived and offered you three options: 1. We could auger the drain through the p-trap and then treat with Bio One. 2. We could auger through the p-trap only 3. We could cable through the roof in the event that the auger through the p-trap didn't work You chose to the second option, and we proceeded to auger your drain and clear it. The price, that you were given up-front, and signed off before any work began breaks down as follows: $ 99.00 Dispatch fee $378.00 Drain Cleaning through p-trap ($30.00) Angie's List Discount Coupon $ 31.29 Tax TOTAL: $478.29 This is the price you agreed to prior to work beginning. You had the option of calling another company but chose to go with us, knowing what the price was going to be. In regard to the up-sale, Bio One is a product we offer to customer's that have had an issue with backed up drains. It is a great product, but again, it is always the customer's decision as to whether they want to purchase that product or not. While I always hate to hear a customer say they won't use us again, I feel we go above and beyond to provide transparency in our pricing. Customers that come back after the fact to complain about the price they agreed to, are not customers we will ever be able to please. Nonetheless, we appreciate your sharing your experience.
