They solved the problem. Pete, I believe he is the boss, seemed to be the best with the camera. He found a problem that the first worker who came out with the camera missed. But in the end, they solved the problem and were polite and their costs seem reasonable -- in line with what others charge. I would use them again.
Description of Work: Had water leaking into the basement. Used a camera to locate problems in the storm sewer and fixed. Solved my problem. Entailed digging up and replacing much of the storm sewer system around my house. The ground had settled over many years and the old clay storm pipes had collapsed.

Hofmann Plumbing is a wonderful plumbing company. Responsive, neat, kept costs down to help me. They were our plumbers at another house we owned some years ago and I'll always use them for any plumbing work I need. Top notch!
Description of Work: Checked all plumbing in a house I was buying; installed battery-operated sump pump (approx. $800); installed pipe connections per my request

They have been in business for many years and they are family owned and operated. They are very truthful and I trust them completely. I know they won't try to fix something unless it really needs to be done. They have also put in a new water heater and disposal for us in the past. They come quickly and call on their way. They are punctual and the employees are very nice and professional. Their prices are usually the same or even less than competitor's.
Description of Work: Hofmann Plumbing replaced a part in our toilet. They also tested the water pressure and at a later date fixed that as well.

They've been around for many, many years. I had problems with the company that I purchased it from and they wouldn't install it because they said there was a problem with my plumbing. Hofmann has been around for many, many years. They are an old, reliable firm. They do very good work. Their charges are a little high but the work is good.
Description of Work: I used Hofmann Plumbing to install a dishwasher. I bought it somewhere else and had Hofmann do the installation. They had to also bring my plumbing up to code.

These guys were local and I wanted to use someone on the Angie's and they worked out fine.
Description of Work: They came out pretty quick. I needed a leak located under my kitchen sink. He found it to be coming from the Insta-hot tank. I thought it was from the faucet. He then fixed a faucet which was leaking in the bath and was in and out in 1/2 hour.

The service was good. The only problem was that I thought the price was a little excessive. Other than the price, everything was great. I would probably use them again.
Description of Work: They came out to the house and installed a new dishwasher. They also had to put in a new valve.

The plumbers from Hoffman Plumbing worked very efficiently and professionally. They had to work within a crawl space, which made the job harder and certainly could not have been pleasant. There was no extra charge for that inconvenience. I have asked Hoffman Plumbing to come out before and had a good result that time, too. Hoffman is a professional plumbing company.
Description of Work: Called Hoffman Plumbing when I noticed the sanitary drains were slowing. They snaked the drains. One drain was fully compacted with tree roots. The plumber had to crack the drain tile to remove the roots. The drains worked well after the work. The team returned when I could be home to let them in and they replaced the cracked drain pipe. The knowledgeable Hoffman plumber identified a pre existing code violation. Their repair corrected the code violation.

I had been given a two hour window for service from 2 to 4 PM. Rich, from Hofmann plumbing, arrived right on time at 2 PM. I live in a townhouse and the water heater is in a rather small cramped closet on the ground floor. I showed Rich the old water heater and then left him alone to do the installation. About an hour and a half later he said he was done. He did a great job. The old water heater was gone. The new one was installed and the closet was immaculate. I had a few questions for Rich about the water heater and some other plumbing issues. He took his time and answered all my questions to my satisfaction. It was nice to be able to not worry about the details of the installation. The total cost was about $710 including tax but I was fully aware of the cost even before Rich got to my place. He installed a top of the line 40 gallon Rheem water heater and it's working just fine. I couldn't have asked for more and would definitely hire Hofmann again for any plumbing jobs I have in the future. I would also ask for Rich to do the job. I was very impressed with his professionalism.
Description of Work: My water heater failed in the morning on July 25, 2008. I called several different companies and no one was able to come out to my house to replace my water heater until the following week. Hofmann was able to send someone out that afternoon and installed a brand new water heater.

They are professional and courteous. They were here when they said they would be. They called to let us know when they were on their way. We are cautious about who we let in the house, but we trust these guys. They are so nice and courteous.
Description of Work: The drains were running slow in the bathroom so they came out and cleaned out all of the drains including the tub. The kitchen sink was also very slow. He cleaned up everything.

I called my HVAC Service Company who recommended Hoffman Plumbing. I then checked Angie's List and the Cuyahoga BBB site to see if Hoffman Plumbing was listed or a member of the Cuyahoga County BBB. I called Hoffman to replace my 75 gal gas water heater on Good Friday after reading the Angie's list service reports. They advised me that they would have to order the 75 gallon gas water heater and, unfortunately, they couldn't install it until Monday. They quoted me a price for the removal,installation of the new gas water heater and installation of a water pan. Their quotation was not the least inexpensive but based on the Angie's List reports, recommendation of my HAVC company and the fact they were a local Westlake company I went with them. On Monday they came as promised. However, the new tank was dented and they suggested that the supplier replace it. On Tuesday the replacement tank was installed professionally.
Description of Work: Remove and replace gas water tank.

They were able to add me to their schedule and get to me fairly quickly in a situation where I was dealing with a leak and shutoff valves that would not work. Uncontrolled water leaks are somewhat distressing. The plumber worked quickly and was very careful about leaving the area clean and tidy.
Description of Work: They removed leaking supply lines to a bathroom sink and replaced them with chrome supply lines. They also loosened 2 frozen shutoff valves.

My experience was excellent. When the technician realized I had multiple problems with supply lines leaking, he went throughout the house and checked every one, as well as checked all the drains and repaired those that were loose. He was polite and courteous and cleaned up everything when he finished. I was very pleased and I thought the price was reasonable in light of all the work he did. I have used this company before and have always been pleased with their work.
Description of Work: Installed new disposal (which I purchased separately), repaired numerous leaking faucet supply lines and drains.

We have used Hofmann's 3 times. They are prompt and reasonably priced. There is excellent communication from Laura at the office, who sets up a time, then calls before the plumber comes to allow 45 minutes or so lead time. Have always been able to come to us on very short notice. Of all the contracters we had to use for this patio project, which included moving the AC compressor, siding issues, etc., we were most pleased with the responsiveness of Hofmann's. Would use again in a heartbeat.
