I spoke to Andrew, and he gave me the best price after having spoken to at least 4 other companies. He explained the kind of pipe that would be used. He came to my home, drew a diagram of the layout, how he would bypass a hawthorn tree and bypass the heat pump on the side of the house. His crew arrived as expected, worked and replaced the lawn that had to be dug up for the piping. My neighbors and I were amazed that we could not tell where the pipe was laid. The sod was replaced without the mess that one would expect. The entire job was done professionally, at what I consider a good price.
Description of Work: Installed outside drainage pipe from sump pump and three downspouts to curb. One pipe came from downspout at front porch and had to connect to that coming from sump pump and side downspouts. They went underneath the sidewalk, then drilled a new hole into the concrete curb so water could exit to gutter.

Ours got plugged up. They put a better line in than what the builder had put in to begin with. I would recommend them to others and use them again in the future.

I could not have asked for better results. John Hunt, the technician who did the job was professional and answered all questions as well as advice. His overall knowledge was excellent - he was also enjoyable to talk to as well. I live in an area called "The Circles" in Victorian Village. We have our "circles neighborhood association" where we recommend outstanding companies to neighbors needing jobs done. I will certainly e-mail our association to put the Drain Connection on our list of professionals.

Our phone call was returned immediately. The visit to provide an estimate was prompt, and the explanations were clear. This is a small firm where you are dealing with Andy, the owner, or key folks he has carefully selected to work with him. The installation itself was very well done. One person worked non-stop for about 10 hours. He took pride in his work and in the appearance of our property after the work was done. With the sod he used, you couldn't tell that any work had been done after a couple of days.

John came right on time. He was very pleasant and personable. He cleaned the drain and put back products stored under the sink that he had to remove to do the job. He gave me advice on replacing a part that fits on the end of the faucet in another bathroom so that I could do it myself. This is the second time I have used this company and will do so again, when it's necessary.

I left a message on Saturday and they called back first thing Monday, just like their message said they would. We set the appointment for 4:30. He, John, called me to tell me he would be late, then again when he ran into traffic. I don't say this because it was a problem, but because I very much appreciated how he handled the setback and the communication. He unclogged the drain and was a pleasure to work with. He left the bathtub even cleaner than when he arrived and that was very much appreciated. I had the same thing done before, by a well known company and they were messy, scratched by tub and cost significantly more.

When we saw how much water was coming back into the basement, we were concerned that we had an expensive problem to fix. The pipe was still connected, so I could not tell that it was not secure. John showed up on time, evaluated the situation, applied sealant to the pipe inside and out before reconnecting the pipe. Our basement has been dry ever since. I appreciate his honesty and would call him again if we have any plumbing problems.
Description of Work: John reconnected and secured a pipe from our sump pump that had come apart as the pipe left the basement going outside. Because of the loose pipe, we had water leaking back down the wall of our basement.

The company was able to send a serviceman the same day. "John" worked diligently for 1 1/2 hours but could not open the drain. He suggested that we call another company but charged us $70 for a service call. We felt this was unreasonable since he could not get the drain open and the other company he suggested was able to open it in only 10 minutes (and charged $132). I'm not sure if the ability to open the drain was due to experience, technique (the Drain Connection went through the tub drain; the other company went through the overflow drain in the tub), or equipment (he broke a piece of equipment during the procedure). I called the owner who was very apologetic and very reasonable - he returned our check to us in the mail a little over a week later. I can't give the technician an "F" for quality because he didn't do any harm - just couldn't get it unclogged.
Description of Work: We had a clogged bathtub drain that we had tried to unclog ourselves with no success. (We learned from these guys not to use liquid drain openers - it potentially weakens the pipes!)

He was considerate, thorough and honest. The price was very fair for the work that was done. Great.
Description of Work: I called and left a message. They called back right away and scheduled an appointment for the next day. When he arrived the plumber was very friendly. He explained everything to me and allowed me to help out so I could learn some things about my house. He repaired two leaks. One on my kitchen faucet and the other on my basement faucet. He could have easily pressured me to replace the fixtures on the spot. But he advised me to buy the fixtures myself and then call him to install in order to save money. He then snaked out my the main drain.
