OOPS--see above
Description of Work: I called this company because they installed a new gas hot water heater very soon after we moved into our home in OH as they old one died. There was a home warranty we used that they warranty compnay sent A-1 Affordable Plumbing to replace the old one under the warranty. Fast forward 4 years when we have no hot water. I called this company as they installed the heater 4 years ago. A service call was promptly schedule & the plumbers arrived on time. They diagnosed a shut down due to a backlot of dust in an area of the heater. A style was installed which requres dilligent attention to keeping an area under the heater very clean and clear of dust --since the heater is in our basement, in the laundry room, this was a potentila problem from the start. We were never told the important of maintenace & cleaning or the specifics of what areas could be problematic. we were charged $195.00 for the cleaning & the heater was up & running again. Within 4 days of the service call, we were without hot water again. My son & husband worked to get the heater on again, using the trouble shooting infor in the owner's booklet. They were successful, but I still let A-1 know what had happened. I was told that they would need to see the unit when it was not working to properly diagnose the issue. Two days later, the heater went down again, this time on a Friday afternoon when we were expecting house guests for the weekend. I left msgs for them at the office Friday afternoon and Saturday AM, not knowing if anyone would call before Mon. We did get a call Sat. AM, but they would not come out again until Mon AM. The plumber arrived Monday AM much later than expected due to his previous call taking much longer than expected. At that point, he got the heater going again and ordered a new part for it under a recall warranty--meaning this was no charge to us as there had been identified continuing issues with this part on this model. I appreciated that, but choked when he said installation of the part would be $145.00. The part was promptly installed this AM, 3/17 and all seems to be well at this time. The plumber was professional and polite during his calls. Not having used a plumber for other problems since moving to the area, it did seem to me that the charges were more than soeone else may have charged. For $360.00, we were working on paying for a new heater. I did feel at a disadvantage since this company installed the heater and I felt we may have come out better using this company reather than startinf with someone completely new. I still am unhappy with the amount fo money we paid, especially since my husband lost his job in December and we didn't not have this money lying around.

It must have been loose around the floor, because water was dripping into the basement. They did give me a $20 Angie's List rebate.
Description of Work: They checked and saw there was a leak in the pipe that goes into the toilet tank. They put in a little pipe to fix the leak.

I have used them in the past, as recommended by home warranty company (HMS). I requested them this time because of satisfaction with a prior service call. They responded to my initial phone call within 24 hours (I called on a Saturday and they called me back on Sunday) and scheduled a mutually beneficial time 2 days later. I requested that they come after 1:00 pm, and they called me at 1:15 and were at my house at 1:30. Rather then just ripping my ceiling out, they suggested that I get the grout and caulking done first, as they believe this to be the problem. They informed me that the warranty claim was good for 180 days, so if that didn't fix the problem, they would come back at no additional service call deductible to do more extensive work. I will definitely use them in the future. They were prompt, courteous, and honest.
Description of Work: I used them as part of home warranty recommendation. We had some water spots in the ceiling of our laundry room directly below the master bath shower and tub. They made the service call and recommended a course of action.

SERVICE WAS THROUGH HOME WARRANTY COMPANY, WE ONLY HAD TO PAY OUR DEDUCTABLE WHICH WAS $100. THE WARRANTY COMPANY PAID THE REST. NICE GUYS, SHOWED UP ON TIME, WERE QUICK AND EFFECIENT. WHEN THEY REPLACED THE WATER VALVES, THEY TURNED ONE ON THAT WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ON, SO WE GOT A HUGE LEAK ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER AS THEY WERE GETTING IN THEIR TRUCK. THE GUYS WORKED QUICKLY TO STOP THE LEAK BUT IT STILL RUINED OUR CARPET. THEY ORIGINALLY WERE NOT GOING TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGES, BUT AFTER SEVERAL CONVERSATIONS WITH THE OWNER, HAVE BEGUN THE PROCESS OF HAVING OUR CARPET REPLACED THOUGH THEIR INSURANCE COMPANY. THIS WAS OUR FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH PLUMBING REPAIRS, SO WE ARE NOT SURE HOW TO RATE THE PRICES. THEY SEEMED A LITTLE HIGH FOR THE VALVES (THERE WERE 8 VALVES)IT WAS $500 FOR THE WATER HEATER AND $500 FOR THE VALVES. WERE IT NOT FOR THE PROBLEM WITH THE LEAK, THEY WOULD GET AN 'A' FOR ALL BUT PRICES.
Description of Work: THESE GUYS CAME OUT TWICE, ONCE TO REPLACE OUR WATER HEATER AND ONCE TO REPLACE OLD AND LEAKING BALL VALVES.

THESE PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING. WHEN I TOLD THE CITY WATER AND SEWER PEOPLE ABOUT A-1, THEY SCOFFED AND TOLD ME THAT THE JOB THAT A-1 DID WAS INFERIOR AND THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE SNAKED IT FROM THE TEST T, NOT THE HOUSE.
Description of Work: I SMELLED SEWAGE IN MY BASEMENT BACK IN JANUARY. A-1 CAME OUT BUT COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY MADE NO SUGGESTIONS, BUT TOOK $65 FOR THE SERVICE CALL. IN APRIL, MY BASEMENT FLOODED. THEY CAME BACK OUT AND SNAKED THE DRAINS FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE. THEY CLAIM THE DRAINS WERE OPENED. MY BASEMENT FLOODED AGAIN LESS THAN 30 DAYS LATER. I CALLED, BUT THEIR RESPONSE WAS TOO SLOW. I CALLED THE CITY, AND THEY HAD TO BRING IN A JET TRUCK, BECAUSE THE BLOCKAGE WAS SO BAD. A-1 DID NOT STAND BY THEIR WORK, DID NOT REFUND MY MONEY, AND BLAMED ME FOR NOT ALLOWING THEM TO COME OUT AND SNAKE MY DRAINS AGAIN. I THREATENED TO REPORT THEM TO THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU AND THEY IGNORED ME. I AM DISGUSTED BY THIS COMPANY.

FROM THE TIME THEY WALKED INTO THE DOOR AND SAW WHAT THEY HAD TO DO AND GOT RIGHT TO WORK..THEY PUT TARPS AND GOT TO WORK. WHEN THEY WERE DONE THEY TOOK EVERYTHING WITH THEM. THEY ADDED IN THE SERVICE CALL INSTEAD OF KNOCKING OUT THE SERVICE CALL WHEN THE WORK WAS DONE.

THE $100 WAS THE DEDUCTIBLE. IF WE NEED MORE PLUMBING WORK IN THE FUTURE WE WILL KEEP THEM ON OUR LIST OF PEOPLE TO CALL FOR QUOTES.
Description of Work: WE HAD JUST BOUGHT A HOUSE AND WE WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE KITCHEN SINK - THE FAUCET WAS DRIPPING. WE TRIED TO FIX THIS OURSELVES BUT WE CONTINUED TO GET DEBRIS IN THE LINES. A-1 WAS RECOMMENDED BY OUR HOME WARRANTY COMPANY. THEY SHOWED UP ON TIME AND DISMANTLED THE FAUCET.

A-1 HAD TO RETURN FOR A SECOND VISIT DUE TO INCORRECT DIAGNOSIS/RESOLUTION OF INITIAL PROBLEM (WHICH LED TO FURTHER LEAKAGE). DURING SECOND VISIT, THE PLUMBER DISMISSED MY DIAGNOSIS OF THE PROBLEM (WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE CORRECT). THEY WERE NOT PROMPT ON ARRIVAL TIMES, AND WHEN THEY CAME DURING A SNOWSTORM, I HAD TO ASK THAT THEY REMOVE THEIR SHOES; THEY WERE OBVIOUSLY NOT PLEASED.
Description of Work: REBUILD HANDLES FOR TUB AND SHOWER VALVES. (THEY WERE LEAKING WATER INTO THE WALL AND THE CEILING BELOW.)
