Disconnecting the water and running the new pipe was pretty straight forward. Dave was in and out in an hour or two, while the old cabinets were being ripped out. Hooking the new faucet up after the granite counters went in was a different story. The granite installer (NCO Custom Marble and Granite) did a poor job of lining up the holes in the granite with the holes in the undermount caste iron sink. It took a long time with a lot of effort to get the handles and sprayer installed without having a gap between the granite and the base of the pieces. After some creative thinking, Dave was able to get it to work and it looks great. Capital Plumbing prices may be right in line with anyone else. I have nothing to compare it to. I think Dave has always been fair with me and I trust that he is going to do the job right.
Description of Work: Dave has done a lot of work for me on my old house and what he finds behind the walls isn't always easy. This time he rerouted the plumbing for a new kitchen sink and hooked up the dishwasher.

They came when they said they would, repaired a toilet that I could not adjust. cleaned up and left.
Description of Work: I have been doing business with Capital Plumbing for over 30 years and have never been disappointed. They are professiional, considerate and highly capable. This is a family company with 2-3 trucks and service people, but they will do what they say they will do and when they say they will do it. I have haver had a call back. They only do repair work, not new construction. Their address has changed in the last year and their office is in Wake Forest, but their service people actually work from their homes.

We have used them before, most memorably when sewage backed up and flooded the lower level of the house. They worked with us on the pricing for installing the gizmo outside which will prevent this from happening again. They coordinated well with the other services needed to clean up the damage. They let us do the digging and filling of the whole to save money. All told they were wonderful and helped us through a nasty experience.
Description of Work: This service date included snaking the bathroom sink, replacing the flapper on a toilet, and changing out an filter on the kitchen sink.

He came out and gave me an estimate that was the actual final cost, did the work when he said he would and even came back to replace the vent pipe because it stuck out to far from the foundation he thought, and he was right. Hauled away the ol heater and cleaned up everything.
Description of Work: Installed a Rennai in line water heater and vented to the outside. Work was done on time and at a reasonable price. He even came back the next day and replaced the vent pipe with a shorter one because he thought it stuck out to far from the foundation. He was right and didn't charge for it.

They were very good. The guy saved me some money. He didn't try to gouge me. I also had him look at the toilets, and he told me that he was unable to fix it. He spent time trying to fix the other toilet, but he recommended putting in a new one. I appreciated him. I thought he went the extra mile.
Description of Work: The sink had problems, so they replaced it.

The experience has been very good. I have been using them for years. They came in very high and I was looking for somebody that could do it for less. Nobody really could do it for less. In fact Capital Plumbing came in less than what they quoted me. They roughed in everything and they still have to come back and install the fixtures once everything gets done. They were here 5 weeks ago. The contract is not yet finished. Once they roughed in everything, I have to put sheetrock in, insulate, paint and put the cabinets in before they can come in to do the final part which is installing the fixtures. I am not ready for them yet.
Description of Work: The plumbing company is doing a complete renovation. They took out a kitchen and a bath and fixed up a temporary kitchen that we are going to use during the renovation. They are installing a tankless heater, a laundry room, a kitchen, and a bath.

Work was well done and at reasonable price. Office didn't communicate that they had a tech coming to do the work so another company was contacted to do work. Second company came after Capital had completed work.

Both plumbers were on time, polite, and knowledgeable. I was pleasantly surprised when the second plumber did not charge me for the second service call. I am very pleased with Capital Plumbing.
Description of Work: A termite inspector advised me that our master bath toilet was leaking. I called Capital Plumbing, they had someone here the next day. He found no leaking at that toilet, but had to charge me for the service call. I called the termite inspection company and they insisted that the toilet was leaking and that I should go into crawl space and check it myself. I found that the toilet was not leaking. Decided to look at other drains in that area and found the shower (3' from the toilet) drain leaking. The plumber had done what I requested, but it would have been nice, if he had been more proactive and looked at the other drains. Capital had a plumber at my house that afternoon. He fixed the leak and did not charge me.
