Yesterday, they called to let me know that the worker was on his way. When he got here, we could all tell that he wasn't quite sure of himself. He started messing with the faucet even though it was working properly; it was just leaking. After a few minutes, he had broken the handle off of the sink. I tried to tell him that I need it fixed asap; however, he claimed that it had been super-glued on the faucet which is why it broke. I purchased those sinks in 2009 and they are meant to last for quite some time. We bought them from a Beauty Equipment specialty store and I have all information to prove it. I called Melissa back in the office of Muetzel and she said she would figure it out as the sink would be fixed by close of business yesterday. Well, it is not fixed. She also told me she would call either way--to let me know when they would be out, if they need to order a new part, etc. I did not receive a call from her. Now when I call, there is a voicemail saying they are closed on the weekends and will not reopen until Monday. I am trying to run a business and would have at least appreciated a phone call to inform me they would be unable to return until next week.
Description of Work: We had a leaking shampoo well at our salon and had previously used Muetzel so I called them.

Response from Muetzel Plumbing, Heating & Cooling
In response, there were more issues and complexities to this call that go beyond what was stated above. I am not going to address these issues and complexities. However, I want to note a few things about our performance: 1) during this call (Friday evening on 10/14) my office and field personnel stayed on the job attending to the needs of this customer; 2) only after exhusting every avenue we knew of, to locate the necessary parts, did we inform the customer that we will have to address the issue next week (Monday 10/17); and 3) on Monday, we were able to track down the necessary parts and make the repair. Also, I think that it is important to know that nothing was charged to the customer and we saw this entire situation through to conclusion.

The technician was polite, friendly, and professional. The only reason I wouldn't use the service again is that their prices are higher than competitors.

I would definitely recommend Muetzel Plumbing, and I will call them again with any plumbing matters in the future. There was no pressure in sales - it was entirely up to me, which I appreciated.
Description of Work: Our sump pump wasn't working properly. I chose Muetzel Plumbing from reading the other comments from others who had used their services. I was very pleased. The appointment was set for the morning (I was second on the work order list that day), and I was told that I would get a call 30 minutes prior to the tech coming out, which I did. He was on time. When I told him that our sump pump was only a few months old, he looked to see what the problem could be. He told me there were a lot of rocks in the sump pump well that hadn't been removed, and then he found a hole in the well. It looked like whomever installed the well made a cut in it so it would fit, thereby allowing rocks to get in over time. When I mentioned that I thought our downspouts might be clogged, he also took a look outside and found that our lateral lines were backed up - it was raining and there was no water flushing out to the street. He explained the process and price estimates of what it would take to have them repaired/replaced; he even pulled some matter out of the drain and saw that it had a lot of debris in it. He gave me all the options of what he could do with both the sump pump and the outside work. I chose to have a new sump pump installed, and wait on the outside work. I was very pleased with his workmanship.

gas leak repair

They were professional over the phone but could not quote us exactly the diagnostic charge when we first called. As agreed, they called us 20-30 min before to tell us they were on their way. The repair guys were more upfront and quoted us the rate of $125/hr for diagnostic and estimated it would take only 15-30 min to diagnose it all. They found the leak very quickly, resolved it and double checked our fireplace all in less than an hour and accepted the $20 off coupon from AL even for a small job like this. They also were careful to wear plastic wraps over their shoes and to clean after their work.
Description of Work: We contacted them for a small gas leak connected to a valve leading to our gas fireplace. Resolution involved diagnostic of the location of the leak, tightening the packing of the leaky valve and retesting the fireplace.

Very professional. The technician was able to identify the issue and corrected it in a timely fashion. The individuals I talked to on the phone were polite.
Description of Work: Our downspout drains were backing up. It was determined that the pipe carrying water to the curb was impeded by tree roots. The company came out, confirmed the blockage, and cleared the blockage with a jetter.

He was very professional and prompt. I didn’t have anything major that needed to be done but they let me know what needed to be done if I wanted to have it fixed. He explained everything to me so I understood and didn’t pressure me to make the repairs right away. I would call him again in the future as well as recommend him.

We called them to determine the cause of a drain overflowing in our basement. They snaked the drain and ensured it was clear and could handle good waterflow. They were on time and were able to get us scheduled within a week of our call. We also asked if he could determine the cause of a water leak on the ceiling of our finished basement. He crawled back into our crawl space to determine the leak was due to the pipes sweating. Crawling back there to look was worth the cost of the visit alone.

The two plumbers assessed the needed service and provided an estimate of the cost. They brought in an electric drain snake and cleared the blockage. They cleaned up the area around the drain upon completion and wore paper covers over their footwear while walking through our house.

Beat all expectations! Responded quickly, were efficient, polite, knowledgeable.
Description of Work: On the Sunday before the 4th of July, my husband just happened to be in the basement when he noteda leak in one of the overhead pipes. Being on a Sunday, on a holiday weekend no less, I got several "leave a message" on various phones as I began to call plumbers. Muetzel had a real live person, who took a message, and got back to us quickly. Mike came out, quickly assessed what needed to be done, and had the entire mess repaired in under an hour. I would call them again in a heartbeat.

I got in the shower this morning and there was no hot water. I called Muetzel Plumbing, hoping to get someone over today. They were able to fit me in. The technician gave me a couple options, and my husband and I decided to get a new water heater. It was pricier than we anticipated, but I know if there is a problem that Muetzel is responsive (we've used them before), and I was thrilled that they were able to solve the problem today.

Plumber came on time, analyzed the problem, gave a realistic estimate of time and cost, took extra steps to insure proper installation, fixed the problem, accepted the Angie's List coupon cheerfully, and left us completely satisfied. The plumber was courteous, friendly, effecient, and effective. This is the second time we have called Muetzel and will do so again when the need arises.

I called the company to snake out a slow bathroom sink drain. The technician arrived on time and confirmed that the drain needed to be snaked. He tried two different snakes but kept getting stuck. When he left, the drain was completely clogged and the tech recommended replacing the existing plumbing under the floor for approx $1200.00. The next morning the drain was still completely clogged. I called the company back and told them that the problem was worse than before the work was done. I was informed that they could come out and snake it again (for an additional charge) but that's all they could do. So, now I'm left with a non-functional bathroom sink which worked before the plumber came out. I wish the company would refund my money since they made the problem worse but they just said that sometimes these things happen when you snake out a drain. I wish they would have warned me of that risk before the work was performed. The technician was friendly and tried his best but they shouldn't have charged me. The company has now agreed to refund my money.

Had appointment from 5 business earlier and still someone had to be "dispatched" to my home. From the $15 (Lowes) kit to install in my toiled that took 45 minutes; I'm guessing I paid gas to get to my house too. Over priced for an appointment.

Response from Muetzel Plumbing, Heating & Cooling
This service call was handled as we handle all service calls. We arrived on site, reviewed the situation and gave an upfront, flat rate price to the customer to perform the work. The pricing was approved, and the work completed. The completed work was then signed off by the customer as being satisfactory and payment was tendered. All the material that was utilized came off of our stocked service truck. My plumber, with 25+ years experience, spent 1 ¼ hours at the service call. The $15.00 material cost noted in the report is not accurate. First, the material at our cost was more than $15.00. Second, and what is often times lost in analysis, is the fact that we have to order the material, pick it up, bring it to our shop, stock it on our shelves, pull it and then stock it the trucks. There are a lot of costs involved in just getting the material onto the truck and to the customer’s house. In addition, we have never had a fuel surcharge. We charge what we need to charge to be fair to the customer and our company. We are not the cheapest plumber in town. We have never made such a claim and never will. There will always be someone cheaper. However, overwhelmingly, as evidenced by our record and grades on Angie’s List, we provide consistent, quality service to our customers. We are not getting rich off of the pocket books of our customers. Like everyone else in today’s economy we are just getting by. I appreciate Member's and all comments offered by Angie’s List members and I thank you for your patronage. As a side note, in recent history I had a roof put on my house. I got three prices and ultimately went with the middle price. Through Angie's List, the BBB, references, etc.. I felt that I fully vetted the contractor chosen. The work was performed, paid for and I was happy with the experience. Less than a year after installation, I found a couple of areas where leaks developed. No big deal, except the company I used was out of business. My 5 year warranty on installation was now meaningless. Do you know who else is out of business? The company that gave me the lowest price. Who is still in business? The company that had the highest price. What did this teach me? Sometimes no matter how much you try and protect yourself, you can still get burned. Also, the company who is pricing to stay in business, instead of pricing to get a job, is going to stand the test of time. It was a valuable lesson for me that cost me money, but for now on I am going to go with a company that is going to fair to itself in pricing. Thank you for reading my response. Sincerely, Andy Muetzel Muetzel Plumbing & Heating Company

I use them all the time. They are kind of expensive, but they do an excellent job. They are always professional. They stand by and guarantee their work. If I have a problem with their work, I can call them out, and they'll check it. They are fairly punctual, but they are very busy. Sometimes, they don't come out as quickly as I like. If I have a real problem, they will come right out. They do a good job. Every time I have a plumbing problem, I call them.

Called Muetzel Plumbing, they didn't charge a travel fee or service fee to come to the house. Their protocol is that you describe the problem to them, they come to your home, examine the plumbing problem, give you an estimate and then you choose to have them stay and fix the plumbing, or have them leave. Since I needed the repairs done I had him stay. Felt we received our money's worth. He cleaned up after each task, was upfront about costs, and concentrated on the job.
Description of Work: 1. Valve replaced on single faucet bathtub, faucet was dripping 2. garbage disposal replaced, had sprung a leak 3. cold water line cleaned leading to clothes washer Turned out what should have a been a quick job took about an hour longer on the bathtub faucet as the valve wouldn't come off. With the kitchen sink there was also a clog of food in the drain line, so had two problems there.

We had Muetzel give quotes on three projects. They seemed high on all of them but we knew the work would be done right. Once we decided on one of the projects to be done (installing a whole house water filter) we called to set up an appointment. They scheduled the work to be done within two days and sent out the same gentleman to do the work. I received a call 30 minutes before he was supposed to show up allowing me time to run home from work. Mike showed up exactly on time and was very professional and helpful with all my questions. We are very happy with the work performed and how friendly Mike was. Overall a great experience.

The plumber was instructed to check our water pressure and reseat the toilet in our upstairs bathroom. He seemed ill advised on how to proceed and did not come prepared with the proper tools. I needed to go to my personal tool supply and help him get the job done. He complained about not being able to do the job and I needed to insist that he finish and help him in the process. I did not hire a "professional" to have to help him with his specialty nor did I expect he would then charge us as much as he did for such a miserable job.

They were flexible on scheduling. I did not have to wait around for a half of a day. Instead I was able to schedule to be the first appointment of the day with the plumber schedule to arrive between 7:30 and 8:00 pm. The plumber called because he was running a few minutes late but showed up at a reasonable time. He gave me a written quote which I could accept or reject with no call out fee. I asked him to go ahead and complete the work which was done professionally. He cleaned up after himself. I like that he brought a floor mat to absorb some of the water that was bound to spill out.
