Description of Work: I called Wm Archer for a leak in my bathroom sink and to unclog some drains in other bathrooms.I had read other reviews on Angie's list and decided to call them.I am so glad that I did. The were the most professional, giving honest advice.They had said that I could replace my faucet, but in their opinion we did not have to go that route for the extra money. Fixing the leak would be just as good. We appreciated the honesty. Will definitely continue to use them. |Barbara S

Description of Work: They arrived to clean out a clogged sewer line. Technician was neat and protected surrounding area. He quoted a price before work began. Once he located the clog, he proceeded to do the work needed. This problem had happened before in my home and the technician told me that I should probably consider having the sewer line jetted to do more thorough job of removing buildup. I choose not to do the jetting as I was in the process of selling the home.

Description of Work: The top of the faucet pipe connector directly under the sink had rotted away and they replaced that. Seemed a bit expensive especially since the piping PVC wasn't replaced; my husband said it would take an hour but they were done in about 30 minutes and bounced before I got home....hmmmm. They additionally added a long rubbery connector in my flush valve in my very annoying toilet. I have used these guys before and they're VERY nice, reliable and professional. I just felt it was highly priced but in fairness did not get competitive pricing due to a leaking sink.

It went pretty good. He was a little late. He told us he'd come in the morning, but he didn't come until 3 p.m. It would've been okay had he called. Otherwise, the work was good.

the plumber was right on time and held to the estimate given to us. He worked quickly and professionally. We gave him a check with a bad year. Subsequently we paid his bank fee ($19.00) for this. He returned this check saying that the bank made no charge for the error. We plan on using him again and again on variousl remodeling projects. Competence, courtesy and reasonable rates are why.

William Archer and Sons was very professional at every point, from the initial call and appointment setting, through the repairs. They were very flexible in scheduling for me, a first time customer. When John arrived within 20 minutes of the scheduled time (which is great for any service provider), he was very professional, confirmed the needed repair, and completed it quickly with no mess or add-ons. He asked if he could place stickers on my water heater and the drain pipe under my sink so it would be easier to remember who to call if either needed repair. Since I'll gladly use them again, I said no problem. Granted this was a small repair, but that leak cost me more in water bills in 6 months, than the repair cost.
Description of Work: Toilet tank leaking into bowl due to a degraded seal, caused the water tank to refill every few minutes. Needed the tank repaired to end the water waste and noise.

THE WORKER GOT TO MY HOUSE IN UNDER 30 MINS. ASSESSED THE SITUATION - UNDID MY "HOUSE TRAP" WHATEVER THAT IS AND SNAKED THAT BAD BOY AND GURGLE GURGLE GURGLE ALL WAS WELL. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE AVERAGE COST IS - BUT $200 WAS WELL WORTH IT FOR THE MADNESS TO STOP - HE WAS VERY POLITE - HE "MA'AM'ED" ME TO DEATH - BUT THAT'S FINE - VERY QUICK VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE, JOB DONE WELL. SUGGESTED TO CLEAN HOUSE TRAPS EVERY 2 YEARS JUST IN CASE.
Description of Work: WOKE UP THIS MORNING TO WATER IN MY BASEMENT - NOT TOO MUCH - FOUND THE SLOP SINK FILLED - TRIED TO PLUNGE IT - DIDN'T WORK - USED ZEP DRAIN CLEANER - DIDN'T WORK - THEN THE SLOP SINK DRAINED INTO MY NEW WASHING MACHINE - THEN POURED OUT OF THERE - LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER - THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES BEFORE ARCHER GOT THERE.

One of the son's came. He came the same afternoon that I called and fixed it! I was working when he arrived, and he was discrete and did the job with no problems. Another company I called couldn't come out for a couple of weeks! I would give them 5 stars for overall service!

Description of Work: They came when we had an emergency on New Year's Eve. Our hot water heater had busted and was spraying all over the basement.

Archer Plumbing was very polite on the phone when I called. offered me the option to come over at my earliest convenience, so I asked today and they said sure. I was given a time window of which they arrived within calling 20 minutes before arrival. Plumber was polite courteous and knowledgeable. Work was completed timely and professionally. They charged exactly what the written estimate was prior to work performed.
Description of Work: Toilet was running spontaneously in the middle of the night. Archer came over and replaced toilet inside parts.

I was very impressed and pleased with William Archer and Sons. Phone call was received 30-45 minutes prior to arrival. Individual was very professional with his work task at hand. After work was completed and cleanup was done, I asked his opinion on a water boiler which had some rust on the top casing due to previous owner (air conditioner condenser on top of boiler). He explained in detail how water boiler was well protected with different layers of protection. Obviously, this gives me peace of mind on the boiler. The pricing of job performed did not concern me, it is not worth nickel and diming for services from an unknown company. I'd rather pay a premium for a great company with great employees and services.
Description of Work: Shower stall had serious stoppage problems. Previous owner never used 3rd bathroom. Shower left on for for 2 minutes, water would take 5 minutes to completely drain. Dave, from William Archer brought in a 25 foot electrical powered snake and was able to solve problem within 10-15 minutes.
