The fix required that the marble slabs be removed and the shower pan removed to install the replacement fitting. This was clearly described and the risks of breakage of the marble slabs during removal pointed out to me. This was all accomplished within the half-hour diagnostic part of the coupon. I deciced to go ahead with the job, and requested a written estimate, and documentation of his license and insurance coverage. They returned on the date agreed to, and arrived punctually at the agreed time. They removed the marble slabs without problems. They worked diligently with a minimum of disturbance to the household, and completed the complex operation within the one day estimated. The repair was successfully accomplished. I will use the services again when needed!
Description of Work: Kevin (KSM owner) came under an Angie's List coupon, and performed an inspection to find the source of the problem. This was an apparent leak indication on an adjacent wall. Diagnosis of the problem to determine what was needed. It turned out to be a leak in the drain of a shower stall, due to an improperly installed drain which had been improperly installed when the house was built in 1998. It appears that a fitting was broken during the installation, and the plumber just jury rigged it with some silicone rubber. The marble slabs of the shower stall were removed, the shower floor pan removed, the new fitting installed, the floor pan recemented, the marble slabs replaced, and the bath fixtures reinstalled.

It's been a while ago, maybe even longer than the date I put but I remember the plumber explaining things to me (including how the coupon worked) and doing a good job.
Description of Work: One visit the plumber repaired a leak under the bathroom sink. Another time I called him and he told me what to do for frozen pipes on the outside accessible water softener to save myself a service call. I particularly appreciated the advice which worked.

Kevin was prompt, thorough, and professional. His rate was very reasonable. I felt as if he did his very best to accommodate the installation of my Costco water softener--this included moving the large suction tank for the garage vacuum cleaner. I would hire him again for any plumbing needs. I thought I already submitted an excellent review for him, but am being asked to submit again. Not sure what happened, perhaps it did not go through earlier for some reason. My apologies for he was an excellent worker.

I provided most of the supplies so the price only includes the replacement valve and the big deal cost. It's been a week since the repairs were done and everything is working great. Overall, they did a great job and I would hire KSM again.

Whenever I watered the flowers in my backyard, the outdoor faucet leaked like crazy. I was putting a wastepaper basket to catch the leaking water. Kevin came out took a look and simply tightened a screw on the bottom of it. It hasn't leaked since. He refused to use my Angie's special deal saying he would honor it when I needed some real plumbing work done, since he lived close by and this took him all of one minute. I will definitely use him whenever I have plumbing needs.

On time, on budget, better than specified.
Description of Work: Install all underground drains, and stubs for a 3,000 sg ft two story house, connection to septic system, including all vents for 9 fixtures, and 300 feet of water p[pe stubbed out for the fixtures. In addition, they installed approximately 150 feet of gas (LPG} pipe for 5 appliances. We will certainly ask them back to hookup all the fixtures and appliances, when we have completed the interior carpentry, trim and cabinetry. Mr Meeks was always present and exemplified perfection and attention to detail, and showed unfailing patience with my often unreasonable requests for changes. Compared to the two other plumbers I have used in the past, KSM is marvelous.

I used Angie's list to find this company after repeated attempts to reach the company we had always used in the past. Kevin was courteous and prompt in setting up an appointment to replace the faucet. He called the day before to confirm, which I appreciated. Cade called the morning of our appointment and said he'd be the one replacing the faucet. He arrived on time and was courteous and professional. He replaced the faucet quickly, making sure it was working properly. He was very pleasant to me and my husband. The cost of the work was fair and included the Angie's List coupon. We were very impressed with both Kevin and Cade and will be calling them again when we have other plumbing issues. We definitely will recommend them to friends and family.

After a leak in the tank portion of an older model water heater, KSM promptly gave me 2 estimates for replacing the tank with a new tank unit, and replacing with a tankless unit. We chose to do away with our two traditional tank water heaters for the tankless unit. Over the course of a few days (it was extensive work) KSM installed a new gas line and the tankless unit. The work was done thoroughly with all the necessary permits and precautions. The two guys were very polite and professional. They even kept the noise to a minimum to avoid waking my kiddos during nap time! It took a few days for the work to be completed as the work included a new gas line (about 60 ft), the unit itself, and required both gas and electrical permits. The electrical work was done by an electrician that KSM called from Angie's list. Everything was done thoroughly and with high standards. They even cleaned up after themselves daily.They also earn high praise for compassion, as when they came to check on the water heater leak originally, they quickly realized that i was without any hot water for me and the kids. So they kindly readjusted a few things so that i could use the one remaining functioning hot water heater for my daily needs until i got the final quote for replacement. They were prompt with their quote and scheduling, and I completely trust the quality and integrity of their work. I will be using them for any future needs and recommending them to others as well.

I ordered the $39.00 plumbing assessment offer through Kevin at KSM Plumbing on Angie's List, as I had a washer that was leaking. I called and emailed Kevin shortly after purchasing my voucher. He responded immediately and we scheduled an appointment. He kept in touch as we got closer to the appointment time and arrived at my house timely. He brought a staff member with him just in case he had to break through the plasterboard in my laundry room, as he didn't know what the situation would be. The two of them worked professionally, diligently, and knowledgeably. They were done in less than an hour, and Kevin told me what the problem was. And he had his staff member make a smaller, plumbing related repair free of charge just to make me a happy customer! Thank you, Kevin! I will surely call you again should I ever have another plumbing issue.
Description of Work: Excellent and professional service from Kevin and his crew! I had a washer leak and didn't know where the leak was coming from. Kevin did a very thorough job researching and troubleshooting the issue and found the problem in less than an hour. I was most grateful! And he is quite friendly and knowledgeable. He even helped me with another, smaller plumbing-related issue free of charge. Wow, I would definitely hire him again!

The process went very smoothly. It took a couple of phone calls and Kevin coming out to see the installation before settling on a solution to some of the problems that an inspector had identified. Once things were settled, Kevin came and performed the installation without any problems. He installed a new hot water heater and expansion tank, replaced some plumbing that had been recalled and re-routed some of the overflow plumbing because it was not up to code. All of this was done in one visit that took a few hours. He was very helpful and professional.

Kevin did a good repair job and communicated very well. He also discussed repairs and alternatives relating to polybutylene plumbing which this house has. He was prompt in arriving at the time he said he would. My experience with Kevin was the bestexperience I have ever had with a plumber. I would recommend him without reservation
Description of Work: Kevin repaired the gate valve responsible for water cut-off to the house without having to replace the valve. Previously whenone attempted to close the valve, water would continue to run.
