After having to leave a message and waiting for the return call, The Plumbing Doctor arrived at our home at the time agreed but sat out in front of our house on the phone for 5 minutes before coming to the door. Immediately, he asked for the deductible of 75.00 that was required for our home warranty before he would even look at the problem. Because this was a second opinion through our home warranty company, our deductible was waived (per the warranty company). He proceeded to make a phone call to verify this info and would not take our word. After realizing that indeed we were correct and he was not to be paid a deductible, he grudgingly took a look at our leak, but started to tell us that he was on a tight schedule and would have to make this call quick (after sitting in front of our house for 5 minutes on the phone). Because our house is old, concrete was surrounding the pipe from the toilet that ties into the main drain. Immediately, he quoted us a price of $5000.00 because he would have to remove the concrete, labor expenses, materials etc. We were not impressed from the first second he pulled up to the house and decided immediately to ignore his pricing. We called a plumbing company outside of the home warranty and they fixed the problem professionally for $1500.00 without having to remove any of the concrete and we have not had any further problems with the repair
Description of Work: Our home warranty company recommended the Plumbing Doctor to provide a second opinion estimate for a leak coming through our kitchen ceiling from the bathroom (toilet) above.

Our home warranty had us go to them to install our waterheater. Within a day or two afterward, the waterheater kept shutting off and we could not keep it on. They returned and tried to fix the problem. When that didn't work, we contacted they again but they would not return our phone calls. So we went with someone else.
Description of Work: They installed our water heater.

Mr. Green made it clear that he treats home warranty customers differently and overall I just didn't feel comfortable with the way he handled business. I felt the price he quoted us for a new tank was too high.
Description of Work: This company was the "preferred" provider for our home warranty company when our hot water tank began to leak. Unfortunately, the home warranty call was made on a Saturday. I called several times and when I still hadn't heard from The Plumbing Doctor by Monday at noon, I called one last time. Mr. Green was nice when he finally arrived Tuesday at noon and advised us on a few hot water choices, including costs for replacing a 50 gallon tank. ($650)

I figured put where the gas was coming from and led them to the drain in my basement. He looked in the drain and said nothing was wrong with it. He then left and charged me $55. I called another company the same day and they said I had a slow leak in the drain because the drain was dry. The price is the deductible for my home warranty.
Description of Work: They were sent out by my home warranty company to investigate why I had sewer gas smell in my house.

Overall, the performance was good, but the toilets are not working properly.
Description of Work: Greg fixed a leak under the sink in the kitchen. The leak was small, but still needed to be fixed. Greg successfully repaired the leak by replacing it with another needed part which took a matter of minutes. In addition, there was an unknown object stuck in the drain of the bathroom tub which made the water drain slowly. Greg poured a sulfuric substance in the drain to melt the object, which solved the problem. Lastly, he fixed the toilet handles which were hard to push down, making it also hard to flush. This was done successfully, however, I'm having other problems with the toilet that I didn't have before (i.e. after flushing, the water noise will not cease unless the inside handle is adjusted).
