We use Benedict for all our plumbing needs. We have a few rental properties (all from the early 1900s) and have to call them periodically for one thing or another. They are always responsive and professional, we've never had to call them twice for the same problem (although in real life that can happen) and their prices are fair. Michele works in the office and is wonderful to deal with, even when they are up to their necks in frozen water lines and assorted weather related emergencies!
Description of Work: Replaced and installed single handle kitchen faucet with sprayer, replaced basket strainer, S Trap, desanko and installed PVC cleanout on copper waste line under kitchen sink, cleaned out trap on laundry tubs in basement.

the service man was a young, relatively inexperienced plumber, but he did the job right, cleaned after the work and was pleasant and professional at the same time.

It was a terrible experience, and I have no faith in their abilities at all. They didn't properly tighten a bolt on the faucet, and water ended up pouring through our living room ceiling late in the evening. We had the same plumber return to address the leak, but it seemed as though he wasn't entirely up to the task. Furthermore, the part he installed was supposed to have a lifespan of 35 years, but it only lasted for one. Ultimately, I wouldn't recommend them.
Description of Work: They made a repair to a sink faucet.

Response from Benedict Plumbing Rochester Rooter
I do believe the member maybe confusing us with someone else. All our records do indict that we did provide service on 3/24/11 time was 10:55 AM to 2:20 PM (not in the evening) & on that date we replaced her kitchen faucet with a new Wolverine Brass single handle faucet with spray. We are truly sorry for the member's bad experience however we no knowledge of that. We take great pride in pleasing our customers & doing quality work.

Had a leaky faucet in the kitchen. They showed up right on time and were able to diagnose the problem quickly. When they indicated the faucet had to be replaced I got nervous as I had priced out the faucet (Moen) on line and it was expensive. I was very pleasantly surprised when they quoted $350.00 which way below what I was expecting. Very quick, profession and left the kitchen cleaner than when they got there. I've had 2 experiences with this company and both times was very impressed.
Description of Work: Replaced the kitchen faucet and repaired the connector pipes

The office staff answered my call directly and was able to schedule the first visit quickly. (No call backs.) The office staff called the morning of the appointments to make sure I was home (and expecting them). Overall, very professional. They were punctual and George did a good job explaining what he found, what he tried, and what he recommended. George and Chaz were considerate of my house (used drop clothes, removed shoes, kept water off the floor). They refrained from swearing -- though it probably was merited. They used care in parking their trucks in the driveway. The items they installed looked good and were watertight. I was shocked at the price quotes -- $800 for the drain line replacement, $75 for the supply line replacement -- but I have no basis for comparison. The job required two plumbers, each with a vehicle, and lasted about half a day. No surprises on the pricing when it came time to bill me. They did not bill me for the first visit which lasted an hour, not counting travel time.
Description of Work: First visit was in response to a bathtub drain leak that I had already tried to repair myself. Tightening the drain fitting and applying silicone caulk did not stop a drain line leak. Two complications: 1) this is a bathtub fitted with a liner, 2) the bathtub is supported by poured concrete floor and the drain line runs thru a narrow opening in the concrete. Second visit was replacement of the drain line from the tub to the stack -- including P-trap and overflow -- and replacement of copper supply lines to the tub and installation of two shutoff valves at the tub access panel. New drain material was PVC, new supply lines were PEX. Length of both lines were approximately 6 feet.

I love those guys. They replaced the faucets in all the rooms and also replaced the toilets in both the bathrooms. They are usually out here once a year for something or the other. We spent a couple of hundred dollars on the last job. They even dug up our lawn one time, to figure out the drainage for the gutters. Over the last 20 years, I would say that they have been here once a year for something. They are the first people I call. We have never been cheated by time or overpriced. If they are going to be late the call and they are very thorough. There was major work with the sump pump and they we going to be late by a day, but they called and let me know, so I knew that they were not coming.
Description of Work: We use Benedict Plumbing Rochester Rooter for plumbing service. The last time we used them was in the beginning of the year and they fixed the hot water connecting thing for the slab sink for the upstairs.

I think they did a very good job, overall. Everything was done in a very orderly fashion. The people were very easy to deal with and communicated well during the entire process. When everything was done, we thought the base of the tub was not as solid as we would liked it to have been. Without hesitation, the workers returned and fixed it to our satisfaction. What a great bunch of guys.
Description of Work: We had a new shower and tub unit installed in the bathroom. The contractor removed the old one. He also repaired the tub drain, re-did the plumbing, and installed the base for the new unit. It took about three days to complete the work.

Normally when a plumber comes out they aren't very clean. The men from Benedict Plumbing that came out were very professional and clean cut. They cleaned up after they were done and left everything looking spotless.
Description of Work: Benedict Plumbing installed two sinks in the home. They also re- routed some water lines.
