I'm satisfied with this company. What stands out the most is that they're efficient, they get the job done quickly and they do an excellent job. The two times that I had them over, they were here very quickly, within the same day. I made the call and they were here within an hour or an hour and a half. I've used this company many times over the years. If I need supplies, that's where I go and get them. They also sell plumbing supplies.

I like them. They're very good. Sometimes a copper pipe will develop a leak, a pinhole type leak. So they re-soldered the joint and fixed it. One of the elbows on one of the feedlines sprung a leak. So they came out and got it fixed. They're a good company, I've worked with them before.
Description of Work: We had a leak and they came out and repaired it.

Perfect installation, wonderful experience. Doug was professional and sensitive to my unusual (and very limited) schedule. We went with his recommendation of a toilet brand we'd never heard of, trusting that he would know what brands may be service nightmares. Toilets have been in place over two months now and are working perfectly. Techs who did the install were personable, we had no complaints about their work or the condition they left our home. Will be sure to use their services again.

Always goes smooth and I always think it's a bigger job than is. Then happily surprised when the guys explain what's going to be done.
Description of Work: We've used Kniese often and they are very good. They replaced frozen pipes that burst under a three season room, replaced a hot water heater (under warranty) and were just at the house today to fix a kitchen faucet. We feel very comfortable with this local company, they stand by their work, prices are fair. Will continue to use them.

As others have said, not the same company it used to be, and it's a shame. Perhaps success has gone to their head. Made an appointment, and I sat around all afternoon, they didn't show up. Not even a phone call to say they were not coming. It turns out to be more a reflection of the receptionist, but things like this didn't used to happen. Wasted my afternoon, and not even an apology. After sitting around waiting for 4 hours, I called and the receptionist said and quot;I said either today or tomorrowand quot;. Who makes an appointment for one day or another? No one, and that's not what happened. Even if she believes it, then they are making appointments like no other business I know of, and not in a good way. I guess if you have endless time, and really want to use them, then go ahead. Like others have said, pay more and now get less. Sorry I won't be willing to use them any longer, as they used to be a good reliable company.
Description of Work: Nothing, and that's the problem.

Knieses is fabulous, it's as simple as that. They do what they say they are going to do, when they say they are going to do it and within the price they have quoted. And, on top of that, they're just really great people. Honestly a pleasure to do business with them.

Doug came right out to assess the situation, corrected the problem without charging me for the house call. We use Knesis' exclusively for all of our plumbing work for the past 10 years and will continue to do so.
Description of Work: Kneise's Plumbing provided us with a whole-house water filter and a U/V light to help purify our well water in August and September of this year at a reasonable price, then when I was attempting to change the filter cartridge for the first time, I inadvertently reversed the cartridge, thereby blocking the the flow of the household water.

The plumber arrived on time and was pleasant to work with. While hooking up my sink he was not able to connect the PVC drain with out leaking. He explained that unless the seal is lined up just right that it will leak and suggested I upgrade to a chrome drain. Not able to get my husband on the phone to confirm what to do I went ahead and had him install the chrome drain at an additional $40 charge. I couldn't have a leaky sink. After the fact in speaking with my husband I was very disappointed that the professional plumber could not install a single standard PVC drain without a leak. Our previous drain was PVC as is every other drain in the house and none of them leak. I felt taken advantage of. Once I received our invoice I was further disappointed in the fact that I was charged for a full 2 hours of labor when I know for certain the job took under 1.5. In speaking with the provider (owner) I explained my concern. He said that my price was fair. I said if thats the case then I would not be able to use them again. He said if that's how I feel then don't. Very disappointed.
Description of Work: Hooked up faucet and connected drain in the kitchen.

Plumbers (2) arrived on-time and I reviewed the work with them. They solved all problems that came up during the job and did a little extra when a problem came up at the kitchen sink trap. They completed the work in a workman-like, professional manner and showed me the tests to prove there were no leaks in their work. They removed all of the old pipe and fittings, and cleaned-up the work area.
Description of Work: Replaced existing 3" copper drain lines that had 2 pin-holes in it with PVC plastic piping and installed 2 frost-proof external water valves (for hose) for a fixed price.

They respond to phone calls and are prompt and professonal. They are a little more expensive than most but I am OK with paying a little more for quality.
Description of Work: I have used Kniese's twice now and been very satisfied both times. Once for rerouting supply lines for a new bathroom sink and once for replacing shower plumbing.

We began expecting some sort of grease blockage and a cleanout bill of $100-200. We never suspected to encounter the problems and costs we would need to face.
Description of Work: A stopped kitchen drain that would respond to owner efforts led us to seek pro help. Our home is built on a slab and all plumbing is buried. Initial efforts to determine the path of the lines was confused. Kniese brought in a video camerah and found the line went to garage before going to street...surprise! Outside line into garage was ok so problem was somewhere under concrete. We had just ordered new kitchen cabinets so took out sink, dishwasher, counter etc and digging began. Had to go 20+ feet passing under a newly installed hvac system. Eventually found the kitchen line had sheared off at the main trap where the 2 baths connected. This was a horrible job to have to perform! Kneice pros were excellent. I would call them again in a heartbeat and rrccomend without any reservation.

They recommended an execellent tiling contractor and arranged their schedule around the floor installatiion so that it was one smooth, quick installation. They also ask that I call with type of replacement toilet and sink so they could be ready to install - they were. Theg removal was quick with complete cleanup. The installation was quick and again excellent.
Description of Work: Leaking seal around toilet revealed floor problem. Kneise removed fixtures, toilet and sink, replacing shutoff values wiith new quality values, and sealing sewage lines. After floor installation they installed new toilet and sink in half a day. This is one of many continuing jobs they have done for me over 18 to include new well pump, several plumbing repairs, new water heaters and water neutralizer/service. Always quick, professional and reasonable

The provider charged $204.00 labor to replace the garbage disposal. The rate is $102.00/hr. Having changed garbage disposals myself, the job can be done in lass than 45 minutes, even faster by a licensed plumber. This is just a warning to other customers. Beware of excessive labor charges. Unfortunately I am out of state or I would have done the job myself.
