I had an emergency at 10 pm on a saturday night and they ran right out. They did a wonderful job. I trust him not to take advantage when it comes to pricing and I will only use them for my plumbing needs.

The entire project went as planned. They started about 8:30am and finised about 6:00pm. One of the two men worked on the Kitchen drain and washer discharge project. This was completed by a little after noon at which time he left. The other plumber stayed to complete the bathtub/toilet piping project. He finished up by about 6:00p.m. Both men were very professional, courteous. Dave, the lead plumber, took the time to explain each phase of the repair/replacement process, and always answered the questions I had about the projects.
Description of Work: Replaced old galvanized pipes running to main sewer stand pipe from bath tub. Replaced bathtub drain assembly including trap. Also replaced sewer piping from under toilet leading to main sewer stand pipe. Reset toilet and replaced worn flapper in toilet tank. They also replaced drain pipe from kitchen sink to basement drain and installed new piping to properly vent and discharge waste water from our clothes washer.

I have used Muetzel Plumbing & Heating twice this summer and have been very happy with the service, price and responsiveness. The first plumbing issue was a cracked outdoor faucet. The plumber not only replaced the broken line he also installed a turnoff value and sealed the outdoor part of the faucet to the siding. All at a very reasonable cost. The seconded time I called I needed a new disposal, they arrived on time and replaced the the old disposal with a new one in a matter of minutes. All in all a great experience.

Their bid was much higher than the other company. There's a dramatic difference between the two, that's why we chose the other company. The gentleman who came out was not very organized, and he gave me a bid that I could barely read because it was handwritten. It's hard to tell what was being quoted for, and the bid was very high.

Adam was very professional, punctual and pleasant to work with. He explained everything he had to do to fix the leak. I called on July 1 and he came out the next day. He went back to the shop to pick up Nick who helped him with the work. They cut out the leaky pipe from the bathtub and replaced it with plastic piping. They also fixed the drain stopper in the tub that no longer worked. Now, the tub will hold water. They were very courteous and professional. Were at my house about two hours. I had no idea what to expect regarding the price. Adam gave me an estimate when he first looked at the job and it turned out to be much lower when he was done. I thought the price wa fair with them being at my house two hours. Would hire again and will recommend to friends.

I called them this morning and they were able to have a tech to the house by 1. After thoroughly checking the bathroom sink, toilet, and bath and even the laundry room lines we decided to have Adam cut into the ceiling to get to the source of the leak. After further checking Adam found the problem and it wasn't even a plumbing issue. It was our AC duct line that's improperly installed. Condensation is leaking from that, running across the ceiling, along the floor joist and finally pooling right under where our bathroom sink is, which is what we assumed the problem was when we called Muetzel Plumbing. I can say enough about how thorough Adam was. He exhausted all possible avenues before having to cut into the ceiling even though we had given the go ahead for him to do so. We will definitely use Muetzel for any and all future plumbing needs.

Muetzel came out and gave a very competitive quote and explained exactly how they could tie in to the shower drain. They gave no guarantees but their description gave me confidence that it would work (and it did). I called and made an appointment immediately after getting the quote and it was about 10 days before they could get to it. It wasn't an emergency so this wasn't a concern. They showed up on time and got right to work. Took about 3-4 hours. They checked for leaks and cleaned up the mess. Very professional and I would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Removed old clogged drain lines (galvanized) in crawl space and replaced with new ABS. Tied into a very old shower drain that would have required replacing entire pan if not done carefully.

The service technician, David, was excellent. He arrived on time. His work seemed efficient as well as tidy. He removed an old kitchen faucet. He installed a new shut off valve the to faucet and added a shut off valve to the dishwasher. He checked for leaks. The new faucet was purchased by me. The work cost $200.00 and I received a $20.00 discount for Angie's List members.

Emergency repair and replacement of a lemon of a water heater - Whirlpool, I bought just 3 years ago. A little pricey- but will probably be a good thing in the long run...replaced with a RUUD water heater - a division of RHEEM. Steve was great. Came right away. Tried to repair first before we figured out I had a water heater - gone bad.

I had just used Muetzel the previous week for a leaky toilet. They did a great job. When the pipe in my basement cracked I called them again, and they came out within a couple of hours. Response time was great. The guy who came out was the same one as last week. We went to the basement and he showed me where the pipe had cracked, and we went over what needed to be done. Knowing that there is a significant difference between working on houses 100 years old and new homes, I asked if there was someone in their company who had experience with old houses. He said yes. He went out to his truck to write me an estimate. When he came back in he said that the guy with experience would not be available for 9 days, but that he could do it in 2 days. He told me it would be $1200. This seemed to me, even though I am not highly educated in the pricing of plumbing, to be a bit high. Actually it seemed like a "don't want to do this job" price. So I called a neighbor who is highly educated in the pricing of plumbing and he referred me to another company. They came out within an hour, gave me an estimate, showed up this morning, did the job in 2 hours, and charged me $600. Go figure. I know that Muetzel has numerous glowing reviews on here, as was the review I wrote on their visit last week. However, this week....when the money was significant - not so great.

Response from Muetzel Plumbing, Heating & Cooling
I just hung the telephone after speaking with this customer. I went over the work performed by the other company and I am going to go over this situation with my technician. It appears that my technician priced this work for a full day with two plumbers. The question then is whether or not he over estimated how long the work would take? If another company completed the same scope of work in two hours then he had to have over estimated. As stated in previous posts, my service techinican has no incentive to over bill, over estimate, etc... So, if everything is as it seems, then the technician made a mistake on his estimate and needs to be coached accordingly. As an aside, if we would have completed the work in two hours as noted by the customer, I would have refunded or reduced our billing to reflect the dramatic difference between estimated and used time. I am not in the business to rip customers off and earn a poor reputation. I have done this in the past after reviewing the invoices and work orders and finding large discrepancies. After speaking with this customer, I think all parties involved are on the same page and in good standing with one another. I thank (member name removed) and all Angie's List member for their comments. Whether the comments are good or bad, my company can learn from all of them. Sincerely, Andy Muetzel Muetzel Plumbing & Heating Company

The person that answered the phone said that she could not give an estimate or even disclose their hourly rate. I would have to schedule someone to come to my house for 3 visits, once to give the estimate in addition to the 2 visits for the work. I did not have time for all of this, so I disconnected the plumbing myself. I lacked the confidence to reconnect everything. I had used Meutzel a few years ago and figured that it would only take a few hours to do the work. The service tech arrived to give the estimate and if all went as expected to complete the work.I had all the parts (faucet, stainers, disposal) except new PVC that may be needed because the sink was a different size.He gave me an estimate of $594. I was shocked. I questioned the tech wondering if he had based his quote to include parts (ie the faucet install was $200 and the disposal was $258). He stood by his quote but offered an Angies' List discount, which was insignificant. I really did not want to do this myself, so I immediately called and asked to speak to the supervisor. I was told he was not available. I left a message and asked that he call me back. He never did. I did the work myself, it took me 4 hours. I ended up needing to exchange the sink because of a defect so I had to do the work again. It took me 1.5 hours the second time. I would imagine that an experienced plumber could complete the work in less time and PVC pipes are pretty cheap.
Description of Work: I had installed a new counter top and sink in my kitchen. I called Muetzel prior to the installation to get an estimate to disconnect the plumbing under the sink and then reconnect it.

The aspects of this report I would like to address have to do with the pricing and the call back to the customer. I have laid out our procedures numerous times in these reports. We do not give pricing over the telephone and we provide free estimates to our customers, as long as they are within the Central Ohio area. We do not use high pressure tactics to sell or get work. My technicians are not paid on commission and bonuses are not issued for sold work. As requested we provided a price for the work and the customer found it to be too high. This Angies' List member relayed her displeasure to my technician and he contacted me, while still on site to discuss the situation. Just prior to him contacting me, I received a voice mail from the customer, who was wanting a lower price for the work. Due to the fact that I had the technician on the telephone and he was still working with the customer, I went over the situation with him and came up with a revised quote of $425.00. This was relayed to the customer and it was not accepted. I did not call the Angie's List Member back because I was under the belief that it was all handled with the technician and her on site. As stated, I received the telephone message from the customer and the call from the technician within a couple of minutes of each other. I apologize if the customer felt that I ignored her message, it was not my intent. As for the work, I am glad to see that the customer was able to complete the work on her own and save some money in the process. Sincerely, Andy Muetzel Muetzel Plumbing & Heating Company

The tech they sent was extremely helpful and personable -- he did a great job walking me through what could be wrong and the options for how to fix it. In the end, the toilet just needed a new wax ring installed, rather than a flange extender (which is what I thought it might need). Turns out I am not so great at installing wax rings, so the tech took care of it, including letting me look over his shoulder to learn. I had no problem paying the $$ for the piece of mind of a leak-free toilet, which is what I now have!
Description of Work: Diagnosed leaking toilet, installed new wax ring. Recommended new flap and fill kit.

Muetzel sent the same technician out to finish the faucet repair job. He replaced the bathroom faucet with a new one he had ordered. I have an older small sink which is hard to fit. I had tried to get a replacement faucet myself from Kraftwood Plumbing, but had been unable to. The sink drain was found to be clogged so he snaked that to clear it out. He finished his work and returned to doublecheck for problems and found the supply pipe which he had supplied was leaking, and he fixed that. There is a tiny scratch in the faucet which I don't think I noticed until after he had left. The price seemed a bit high.
Description of Work: I called Muetzel Plumbing about a bathroom faucet that needed replacing. I had bought a faucet already per instructions from another plumber who had come earlier. Mike from Muetzel Plumbing came over to install it. It did not fit however, because it was a slantback. He got the model and manufacturer for the right one.
