I can't say enough good about the experience I had with Muetzel. I called at 10 a.m. and Shawn, the tech, was at our home at 1:30 p.m. the same day. Shawn was very professional, courteous, and friendly. He left no mess at all and finished the work in one hour and 45 minutes. I am so glad I called them. Everyone I spoke to, from the initial phone call, to the scheduling person, to Shawn, were very pleasant and polite. The scheduling person called me about 45 minutes before Shawn arrived, to say he was on his way. I would recommend this company to everyone, and will definitely use the company in the future.
Description of Work: Called because of a leak in the laundry room in the basement. Shawn, the service tech, responded and advised that the wax ring on the upstairs toilet was the cause of the leak. He also stated that when he removed the toilet, if he saw that the flange needed repaired, that he would advise me before he proceeded with the repair. I was very pleased when he said he could do the necessary repairs that day, and at a very reasonable cost.

I had called over the weekend and left a message with this company regarding a deduct meter. Melissa called me back Monday morning and left a message for me to call her back. When I called back on Tuesday and spoke with Holly regarding this she asked if I had worked with the company before. I had said no and she informed me that there was a flat rate for all their services but would not tell me what that is. I was confused because if it was a flat rate why she couldn't share that with me. I said that as she is aware time is money and if I made an appointment with the them and it ended up being much larger than another company I had just wasted that appointment time for both myself and their techs. I mentioned then that I was an AL customer and she informed me there was a coupon that was online I could present to the tech but she still would not give me the price. Unfortunately for them I will not be using them for even a quote as this could have been avoided if she simply could have said we charge this amount per visit.

Response from Muetzel Plumbing, Heating & Cooling
Good or bad, it is the policy of Muetzel Plumbing not to price work over the telephone. It is our belief and practice that you can only give a proper evaluation and cooresponding valuation of the work when you are physcially on site. This philosophy does not lend itself readily to people wanting instaneous results that telephone pricing provides. To all those individuals, I apologize. Excepting emergency after hours calls and customers who are located outside of the Columbus vicinity, WE DO NOT CHARGE SERVICE FEES for showing up and giving you a price. This practice cost the company time and money but we believe it is the right thing to do for the customer, the technican and Muetzel Plumbing. WE DO NOT PAY COMMISSION OR BONUSES to our technicians. We do not avoid telephone pricing so that a slick saleman can show up at your door. Our technicians get paid the same amount of money regardless of what they are doing throughout the day. Here is an example of why we insist on doing our own onsite evaluation. We had a new customer call us to give her a quote on repairing her sewer. A national outfit and a local outfit had already given her a price. When we arrived on site, we insisted that she allow us to do our own investigation, so we did not have to solely rely on what she was telling us and what the other companies were reporting to her. With reluctance she decided to allow us to proceed. We ended up saving her approximately $4000 by clearing the sewer of roots with our jetter. No expensive repair was necessary. We were called, we did a proper evaluation of the situation and we gave corresponding flat rate pricing for the work. At the end of the day we had a grateful and satisfied customer. Again, I apologize for not being able to accommodate each and every request of our customers. Telephone pricing is one of those things. The example that I gave above is just one of many, which is the backdrop for what we do and why. Thank you for taking the time to read my response. Sincerely, Andrew Muetzel Muetzel Plumbing & Heating Company

Called and left a message 2 weeks ago on the answering service line but did not receive a call back. I called them back 2 days later and they were very responsive. The company provided a reminder call the day before and the plumber arrived within a 30 min window. He was knowledgeable and was able to adapt a new cartridge to fit our old tub faucet. The company reported they carry all common parts on the truck but he did not have the parts for the model of my faucet with him. He picked up the parts and returned within 15 minutes. He was accommodating when I added on the twist and turn drain after he arrived.
Description of Work: Replaced cartridge in Delta Monitor tub fauce and put in a new twist and turn drain.

It took three phone calls, and leaving a message with an answering service during working hours to actually get me on the schedule. On the date of service, the agent was very punctual. However, he insisted he didn't need a key to access our sprinkler system. That was not the case, and he couldn't find the valve to turn it on. He was in our basement, outside and everywhere in between, trying to figure out how to actually run it. When I opened the access panel and turned the system on manually, the sprinklers didn't run because he had turned the valve off outside. We finally got it running and the actual test went quickly. I've used Meutzel the past few years and haven't had this kind of confusion before. I don't know if they were just having off days whenever I tried to contact them. Perhaps, the agent they sent was new. I'll use them again in the future, but I'll request someone with more experience in backflow testing.
Description of Work: Muetzel Plumbing performed a backflow test for our sprinkler system, as required by the City of Columbus.

Muetzel propmtly answered my call and sent someone out the same day that I called. The service tech, Shawn, was at all times professional and patiently answered several questions. Muezel provides an upfront quote, so no matter how long it takes them once they get started you already know the charge - this is a huge bonus in an old house where little jobs often turn out to be more difficult than expected. Shawn was neat and courteous.

They called 30 minutes before arriving as they said they would. The teck was very professional, assessed the situatio and brought in everything he needed in one trip. He explained everything he did and gave me some pointers on thing I asked about. Everything went well.
Description of Work: The City Inspector found 4 very minor gas leaks when checking my new furnace install (not related to furnace install). The inspector asked if I would like him to check everything while he was out and I said sure. The tech from Meutzel located and corrected all the leaks in about an hour. I then asked him about a small water leak at my indoor meter and a problem with one of my sinks. He corrected both problems as well.

I called, explained my problem, and had a service call scheduled. The plumber came early in the morning, quickly assessed the problem, and gave me an estimate. He was professional, friendly, and fast. In less than an hour he had replaced a piece of the pipe and cleaned up the area where he worked. I appreciated his efficiency, and my dog loved him. I would hire Muetzel Plumbling again without hesitation.

As part of selling our house, we agreed to have the shut-off valve to the main floor gas fireplace replaced (rounded out) for the buyer. Upon inspection by Muetzel, it was determined that access to the area was blocked by the ceiling of the finished the basement. So an access hole was cut, only to discover that when the fireplace was installed by original owner, the gas line to the upstairs fireplace had been run incorrectly / jointly with the basement gas fireplace... The gas line routing was corrected, the valve was replaced, an access door was added & cut edges were covered with trim. Repair person was polite & friendly, answered all questions in layman's terms, and cleaned up the work area. Very good experience.

It went very well. Steve arrived on time and explained exactly what had to be done and how much it would cost. He also inspected my other pipes before starting. He replaced two lengths of pipe with commercial grade copper pipe which is thicker than the usual residential copper piping. He soldered everything in place. He and I tested all the faucets, toilets, etc. to make sure everything was working once the water had been turned back on. Steve was very friendly and professional. He answered all my questions and warned me that other leaks might occur in the future. I appreciated his honesty. When I couldn't find a coupon for Muetzel Plumbing in my latest Angie's List publication, he advised me to print one from the Angie's List website, which I did.

Excellent, start to finish. Our job was "worked" into their already full schedule on a Friday with short notice, and we appreciated that. What was supposed to be a routine installation (flex connector for gas stove) was complicated when the repairman discovered that the previously used gas line into the kitchen had been severed and capped in the basement. He was able to shut off the gas, install a new gas valve and fittings, and then he installed a longer flex connector to reach from the fitting through the floor to the stove. What was supposed to be a routine flex connector to a new gas stove turned out to be a much more complex installation. The repairman was quickly able to address the situation and offer a viable solution. He saw the job through to completion and we were able to use and enjoy our new stove immediately.

I was very happy with the gentleman who did the work. He explained everything that needed to be done and then afterwards told me what he had done. He answered all of my questions. He had a delightful personality. He even helped me push my washing machine back in place. Before he left he even sat down at the piano and played a song for me. I will use them from now on.

The drain clogged late Wednesday night and I tried to plunge it myself only causing more problems. I found Muetzel here on Angie's List and read through their reviews, everything sounded good so I called just to leave a message. They actually have an overnight answering service so I left a message and description of the problem with the woman who answered. Thursday morning another woman called and scheduled an appointment for me on Friday morning between 7:30 and 8:00, I was impressed that I wouldn't have to wait for hours for someone to arrive! Our service tech showed up around 7:50 and was done about an hour later. Like I said before he was thorough and professional, he cleaned up even bringing his own mat for the floor. He explained to me that since the house was old and some renovations had taken place there were some funny connections in the drain and I may want to address those later on, not a surprise since we've had another do-it-yourself plumbing issue with the bathroom sink. There was a $20 coupon for Angie's List members and I used that, getting the price down from $167 to $147. I was surprised to get this done for under $150! All in all this was a great experience and I'll keep them in mind for any future plumbing issues we may have. Thank you Angie's List and Muetzel Plumbing & Heating!
Description of Work: I had a backed up drain in my kitchen sink. I was trying to fix it myself but ended up just pushing the back up further down the drain causing the standing water to move into my dishwasher and subsequently onto my kitchen floor. I called to have a plumber come and look at it and I had an appointment with 36 hours of the initial call. The gentleman who came out was very professional and explained everything to me. He gave me an estimate before performing any work and honored my $20 coupon I found her on Angie's List. He snaked the drain and made sure that it was draining correctly before leaving. He even tested the disposal and dishwasher to make sure there was nothing else backing up the drain.

From the initial phone call to the installation - this company was very professional and helpful. The person scheduling the appointment made it early enough that I was able to go to work after the contractor completed his work. The contractor came in - was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Since the sump pump was over 5 years old and not functioning he suggested that we replace it. It took less than an hour to complete the replacement - he checked to make sure it was working properly and that the drain to the street was clear. He explained everything he did clearly. Meutzel Plumbing and Heating will be my first phone call when I need plumbing or heating work!

Same estimate as Waterworks: The estimate for 3-4 hours of work was over $750. That is approx $200/hr! It was a simple plumbing job that I wanted done right. But for that price, I wil read up on it and do it myself. No new pipes, no rerouting, no digging, just simple hookups to exsisting items in the guest bathroom that I am remodling. If they didn't want to do the job and it was to small to make it worth while, why didn't they say so. $750?????

Description of Work: I had the entire shower / tub faucet system replaced, it was a hard job espicially when you have to work through a wall. The plumber ran into some problems but he refused to give up until it was done right. The repair took twice as long and he did not charge me anything extra, they stuck with the original estimate. The plumber was very professional and treated me with the utmost respect.I will definitely use them again.
