They came out quickly on a Friday morning. The people that came were great and they did a good job. We paid them during the visit and the owner then sent a bill stating that payment was received and he included a thank you note on the paperwork. In this day in age that is hard to come by.

My shower valves were leaking and they reinstalled. They also redid all the plumbing needs for the toilet. They did a good job overall. They did have some faulty shower valves but they fixed it for me. They had good follow up.

Stopped in, got the bid after they unlocked the unmarked entrance door for me to get in. I give them that it is an iffy neighborhood. Anyway, super pricey for the work requested, he even knew I wouldn't accept the bid and said I thought so when I laughed at it. Shop around.

Response from Calhoun Plumbing Co
All I can say is that outside our door we have our address numbered. Also what is unusual is that there is a 6 foot by 3 foot sign with our name and phone number which as been on display over 4 years. This perspective customer came into our building and asked us to price out 2 drains. One was a main sewer and the other was a kitchen sink. One thing that I don't think he realizes is that when we do a main sewer we always use 2 men because our machine weighs over 300 pounds. We try not to damage any customers steps. I believe this is a competitive price, also if he were to call any reputable drain cleaner I think he would find our prices in line. Yes, we are located in a area that is in transition. Yes, we always keep our doors locked. We have a security fence in back and has razor wire on it. For that I don't make any apologies. In fact when he entered the building we asked him to have a seat in our office which he refused. When our office manager took 15 minutes our of his busy day to help him, I was very surprised that when he heard the price he just laughed in our manager's face. We made an honest effort to help him, he just didn't like our prices.

I had used a different plumber and was not that happy with them, so, I tried Calhoun Plumbing. They seem to do the job in one time and I don?t have to call them again for the same job. I think the price is not out of the ordinary.

I have used them several times to get work done on my rental properties too. They had installed a new water heater for me about 2 years ago. I felt that the price that they charged for the water heater was expensive, but you can?t get it for cheaper either. I used to install it myself when I was younger, but I no longer do it now. They are punctual and very professional people. I have never had to call them back to rectify something. I would have worked in the same manner if I was in business. I never compared the price with any other company when I bought the water heater. The quality of their work is very good. I will use their services in the future as well.
Description of Work: I use the services of Calhoun Plumbing to get the plumbing work done for me. The last time I used their services was about 4 or 5 weeks ago.

The price of the repair was the exact price I was quoted over the phone. I'm not sure if the price is competetive or not --we did not seek another quote from another company, as this Calhoun Plumbing offers Saturday appointments, which we needed. The repairmen were very friendly and the job was completed quickly. The new faucet works great! I would use this service again.

I called the shop and they said they could get someone out the next day, but could possibly get there the same day late in the afternoon. I asked that they call me if/when they could be there the same day. They were able to make it the same day, but they didn't call me. There was someone home, so they were able to come in and begin the work. It was one guy's first day with the company and the machine he brought wasn't working properly. (The blade kept falling off, among other issues.) After two hours they gave up for the day and said they would be back first thing in the morning. They were back mostly on time the next morning and worked at it another hour, this time the process going as expected and the drain was cleared in just under an hour. They washed down the floor and made sure the drain was draining as it should. (Even waiting to make sure the upstairs plumbing flowed correctly.) They were very courteous and friendly. They offered a reduction in time used, since it was their equipment that made them run over the hour estimate (charging an hour and half of labor, which I found to be very reasonable) and only charged one service call fee. I will defiantly use their services again.
Description of Work: Basement/Main drain was totally clogged.

Another company was sent to our house by our home warranty company for a clogged drainage pipe. Their estimate was for $1800 and we were told it would not be covered by our home warranty. After reading reviews on Angie's List, we then called Calhoun Plumbing who fixed the problem the same day for $180. The employees were courteous and prompt. He fixed the problem quickly and gave us recommendations on how to maintain the line in the future.

They gave me an estimate of $175-$250, so we ended up going with them. They got the sump pump, put in, and then said that they were charging me $375. The serviceman would not leave until I paid them, and so I did. The serviceman had said that the owner would refund the difference, but failed to return calls three days in a row. They didn't leave the area as they had found it. There was additional clean-up I had to do. We also ran into a snag, and I don't know how permanent the solution will be, so I will probably have to keep an eye on that situation.

Response from Calhoun Plumbing Co
I'M NOT SURE THAT WHAT YOU ARE SAYING ACTUALLY HAPPENED. YOU STATED THAT YOU WERE GIVEN AN ESTIMATE OF 175.00 TO 250.00? UPON LOOKING IN OUR RECORDS, THERE WAS NEVER A WRITTEN ESTIMATE GIVEN TO YOU. I KNOW THAT WE DID TALK ON THE PHONE AND WE MAY HAVE TOLD YOU WHAT THE COST AVERAGES FOR THAT TYPE OF JOB. YOU WENT ON TO SAY THAT YOU HAD CALLED AND CALLED BUT NO REPLY? I DON'T FIND THAT FACTUAL BECAUSE YOUR CHECK, WHICH YOU PAID AT THE TIME OF SERVICE, WAS POSTMARKED BACK TO YOU WITHIN 24 HOURS. UPON PERSONALLY TALKING TO YOU ABOUT YOUR SITUATION I WAS TOLD THAT YOU WOULD FORWARD US A CHECK FOR 250.00. WITHIN THE NEXT 10 BUSINESS DAYS WE DID RECEIVE A CHECK FOR 225.00. I CAN'T ADDRESS THE SITUATION ABOUT LEAVING A MESS BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER BROUGHT UP WHEN I TALKED TO YOU ON THE PHONE. ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT WE HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH LEAVING MESSES. WE ALWAYS TELL OUR SERVICE MEN TO LEAVE THE AREA IN BETTER SHAPE THAN WE FOUND IT. IN CLOSING, YOU MENTIONED THAT YOU WERE GOING TO HAVE TO KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE REPAIR. I KNOW WHAT THE SITUATION IS AND WOULD BE MORE THAN GLAD TO EXPLAIN BUT I WOULD NEED FEEDBACK FROM EITHER YOU OR ANGIE'S LIST PEOPLE. IT'S A LITTLE TECHINICAL BUT I'M NOT TAKING THE TIME NOW UNLESS SOMEONE REALLY WANTS TO KNOW. THANK YOU.

Kitchen drain was slow/blocked. We called a popular company to clean it out but discovered the drain pipe in the basement was rusted through and leaking. The other company's price was very high so we decided to contact other companies for estimates. Calhoun Plumbing came over right away and gave a very good estimate, so we hired them to do the job. Their plumbers arrived shortly after that and finished the job very quickly and efficiently. The pipe that was removed was completely occluded, so the drain runs just fine now.

When they checked my leaky toilet, then claimed the fixture must be cracked and therefore needed to be replaced. I bought a new toilet from a home improvement store (a brand they recommended) and they came back and installed it. After a few days of normal use the new toilet became clogged a couple times. They came back out and said that's normal operation for a low-flow toilet, and that's what I get for replacing an older higher-water-usage toilet. The faucet they couldn't fix surprised me-we have an old house but that faucet is only 10 yrs old, yet they claim it was old and couldn't get parts for it anymore.
Description of Work: It started with a leaky toilet, but escalated into two replacement toilets. Also checked a faucet (but claimed they couldn't fix it).

They arrived to fix the issue, and it still isn't fixed. He explained that because the house is very old I would have to tear out the tile so that he could reach the issue to properly fix it. Had he told me this in the beginning I wouldn't have used there service.

Called on a Saturday morning and was able to get someone out to the house within 3 hours. Guy offered to replace the plumbing connections but since we are going to be redoing that part of the basement soon, we decided to just have him tighten and fix the existing pipes. He did that and the fix worked as it has not leaked since he came and did the work.

The job was done efficiently. They came out to do a free estimate and treated me with respect. The estimator did a great job of educating me about what problems they may run into and kept me informed about the job progress and situations they came across during installation. They accommodated me without question when something wasn't done to my expectations or specifications.

Calhoun dispatched two guys to hook up a single line. No installation of a new gas pipe, just connect a flex line from a supply to the stove. Two guys, one hung around and watched, $350. My wife contracted the job. When I called to ask why so high, the manager told me the regulations for gas line handling, etc. Just a lot of money for a short job.

MY FIRST QUESTION IS THAT I AM WONDERING IF HE WAS A MEMBER OF ANGIE'S LIST BACK IN JUNE OF 2007. BECAUSE AS I'M REVIEWING HIS WORK INVOICE IT DIDN'T STATE THAT THEY WERE MEMBERS OF ANGIE'S LIST. SO NATURALLY I AM SURPRISED TO BE HEARING ABOUT THIS NOW. THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY IS WHEN I REVIEWED THIS BILL I DISCOVERED THAT WE INSTALLED 11 FITTINGS AND 13 FEET OF PIPE. THE BILL WAS $334.42 OF WHICH $ 132.00 WAS LABOR. AS MANY OF OUR ANGIE'S LIST CUSTOMERS KNOW WE ARE ALWAYS GLAD TO GIVE ESTIMATES OR A FIRM PRICE UPON REQUEST. EARLIER THIS WEEK WE CONNECTED A RANGE AND THE BILL WAS $ 154.18. SOME JOBS ARE COSTLIER THAN OTHERS. AS FAR AS OUR PRICES GO I FEEL THAT WE ARE VERY COMPETITIVE FOR THE SERVICE WE DELIVER. IN CLOSING WE ARE REALLY HOPING TO GET SOME FEEDBACK TO THIS RESPONSE. THANK YOU.
