Pete and his son are wonderful. They come when they say they will. They perform the work they say they will. They perform excellent quality work, and clean up after themselves when they are done. Highly recommend!

They responded very quickly to my request, which I truly appreciated. I knew my existing battery backup was in bad shape and was not sure how the main sump pump was performing. Pete came out the same day I called to check out the existing pumps, said he would replace the battery backup (now dead), but my main pump was working and I probably would not have to replace it if I did not want to. I opted to replace both at this time because I spent $22,000 on basement waterproofing in 2012 and I was not going to have to contend with a flooded basement. Josh and Joe came the next day and installed the pumps, re-piped discharge lines for both sump pumps, and performed other maintenance. Clean up after job was fantastic. Josh also took the time to show me how I can check to see if both pumps are in good working order in the future. You can always tell a pro in their trade, since they will always share information with a customer and try to help them. Thanks much, Josh. Hofmann's prompt service, great staff, and thorough work performance will certainly make me a repeat customer.

My home inspector recommended I perform a water pressure test on a home that I was purchasing because there was evidence of a leak. A different plumber advised me that they only did this on brand new homes before the walls were finished. The office administrator at Hofmann Plumbing indicated that they do perform water pressure tests on existing homes and when I explained that another plumber indicated it wasn't normally done, she indicated they do them and even checked with the plumber. I was given the timeframe of "afternoon" and they could not be more specific even during that afternoon. I finally got a call at 3:30PM and was told to be ready in less than a half hour at the house (I had to coordinate with my realtor as I do not have possession of the house yet). They were not there until after 4:30PM. When the plumbers arrived, they indicated that this was not something you'd perform on an existing house as it may cause undue pressure on the pipes and that it would only be done if the water had been shut off and drained. They still charged me for the call despite not actually performing any work.

We have him up whenever we need him. We have him for sump pumps. We have him for plumbing. They usually have two or three different guys that come out here. Each guy has a different specialty. Everyone has been courteous. Everyone has done their job neat and clean. We've used them for years. He said he would be here this afternoon. He will call maybe within a half hour before he comes. Overall, they're an A+. I think the price is the same with everybody else. Every time we have called somebody to work, it's $150 to come into your house. He did all our plumbing in our whole basement. Don called this morning. Within a half hour, they called him back and set up the appointment this afternoon.

It was excellent - From first call to finish. When you don't know exactly what needs to happen in the a home plumbing situation, there is a level of anxiety, especially with an older home. Rich and Josh were calm and patient which provided me with confidence that everything was going to be all right !! This is my first time using Hofmann Plumbing. They have become my official plumber after today. THANK YOU !!

very well. great guys...new line ran is solid and looks great. backyard hasnt flooded since
Description of Work: Had a huge drain issue that caused our backyard to flood EVERY time it rained. we also wanted a new exterior faucet installed and and old one replaced. Another plumbing company said it was $300 to just bring his $10,000 camera to snake the line and determine the issue. even though we knew the location of the issue because the line had been snaked and the video already done by RotoRooter. they subsequently wanted $275 per hour to dig out the connection and fix whatever was broken/disconnected. we said no to that too. so Hofman comes and gives us an estimate to dig out the pipe and do the two other spickets. sure enough...before they start digging they disconnected the downspout and found a piece of piping jamming the drain. they called us over...showed us and picked the pipe piece out. they lost hundreds in labor hours but gained a customer by their honesty. I love these guys and trust them to put our interests first...how rare is that?

There where two people that came out to complete the work and it took them one day. They did everything professional all piping was straight. I would tell friends and family to use them they were very polite and they where willing to do the whole job. They even ran the dryer vent thru the wall which they where willing to do. Very detailed on their quote.

Great workers....explained everything. ..honest and decent people that earned my trust. New faucets are exactly what I wanted....done right...done well.
Description of Work: Two new exterior faucets...were supposed to dig out and reconnect a broken T connection that was diagnosed with camera by another company. ..but the two Hofman guys found the issue without even picking up a shovel and fixed it within 5 minutes. Saved me 4+ hours of labor...and other plumbers listed here that were going to charge me $350 just to come out and use their own camera. Hofman Plumbing earned a customer this week and they will be my plumber from now on!

My parents have used Hofman's for years so I did not hesitate to contact them when I needed them. At my own house, a pipe had frozen and burst. The plumber came out right away and fixed the problem promptly. I paid $190, which I thought was pretty reasonable. He had to cut into a kitchen base cabinet to get to the pipe. Only and quot;complaintand quot; is that he didn't cover the hole back up. Perhaps most plumbers will not perform that service. I now have a large hole in the back of my cabinet that I can't fix personally. The other job was for my boyfriend's house. Again, they responded quickly (a dripping pipe) and were able to fix the problem in about 20 min. Cost was $80. I will definitely have Hofman out again for any future plumbing needs and would recommend them to others.

A permit from the City of Westlake was obtained and the work inspected and approved. I also obtained a quote from another plumbing company and the quotes were comparable. One of the things that stood out for me was how thorough Pete was during the initial visit. He asked questions to make sure he understand what I was asking for and expecting, inspected the furnace and existing gas lines very carefully, inspected the basement ceiling to consider how the line would be installed and took pictures for his reference. Because of his attention to detail and his patient and thorough responses to my questions, I would have selected Hofman for the work even if the price quoted had been higher than the competing quote.
Description of Work: I wanted to replace the electric range with a gas range and needed a gas line installed. This required tying into the existing gas line main by the furnace and running a new gas line branch through the basement ceiling into the kitchen and testing to confirm there was no leak.
