don't use these people - they indiscriminately kill mature trees in a city that already is at a shortage of them and is facing heat stress in the face of climate change. they started clawing at a mature tree's critical root zone with a backhoe indiscriminately, and when confronted said they do it "all the time" and that the trees are fine, as if they visit work sites 5-7 years later.

Excellent. When the drain could not be cleared with a snake, the plumbers found another way in and quickly cleared the drain with a plunger. They were very friendly and knowledgeable.

As my issue was not an emergency, I scheduled ahead with City Plumbing to replace my kitchen sink garbage disposal. On the day of the scheduled appointment, the plumber did call about 2 hours before the appointment time to state that he was held up on another job and that he would be about 45 minutes late but, he did show up at the later time with no further delays. He quickly replaced the garbage disposal and cleaned up and was finished in about an hour. I was quite pleased with the service City Plumbing provided and I would definitely hire them again.

Very smoothly. There were some complications with a part, not their fault, and they had to come back a later day when the correct part came, and were willing to do that without charging an extra mobilization fee, which would have been fair for them to request, since the second trip kills half a day for their team. We were really happy with their work and professionalism and will use them for more work in the future.

I contacted City Plumbing and arranged for a visit to my home to discuss the work that I wanted done. The representative came out and did a walk through as we discussed the project and they seemed very professional. After approximately 5-10 minutes the plumber said he understood what I wanted and would follow up within a few days with an estimate. A few days passed and I hadn't heard back. I called City Plumbing and was advised that I should hear something that day. I never heard back and ended up calling 2 additional times on different days for an update or estimate on the work to no avail. Here we are more than 2 weeks later and still no word back from City Plumbing. Waste of my time!!

I was very pleased. Scheduling was easy, Ryan (the estimator) called ahead and arrived within the window given me, offering me a competitive rate (in the same ballpark as a competitor, a bit cheaper but not by a lot). He was also willing to work with me on getting a for-now fix while informing me that I'd need a bigger job to get up to code (the competitor also said this, so I don't think it was upselling, plus Ryan's ballpark estimate for the bigger job was much better than the competitor's ballpark). Two staff (Mike, I think, and Pat) came out to do the work the same day and were prompt, clean, and quick. They handled disposal like champs and left my basement in a much better shape than they found it, making sure to leave the pipes ready for the "bigger fix" when I'm ready. Then Erica called within the hour to make sure I had my copy of the invoice. Seems like this is a well-run business with sufficient staffing and professional people.
Description of Work: I had an old rusted-out cast iron pipe that was nearing catastrophic levels of thinning and cracking. I needed it replaced, and fast, before other workers came to do work in the basement -- I knew that one wrong bump or dropped wrench could spell disaster! I had an immediate issue that needed fixing ASAP as well as wanting to know what else I'd need to do in the future to remediate the former owners' workarounds as far as rainwater removal.

Union was replaced with little concern for straining surrounding pipes. Plummer loosened and re-tightened many surrounding joints unnecessarily which could have caused leaks elsewhere. Took a bull in a china shop approach instead of using logic and skill. Provided own parts and service for a single union replacement was still $425.00. Extremely over-priced.

We're sorry you feel this way but the service call was after normal business hours on a holiday weekend. The price was quoted over the phone before arriving and agreed to. Cj was the mechanic sent and is highly trained and highly reviewed on this site. Sometimes these old lines need a little more pressure applied due to rust and other factors. Your business is very important to us and we appreciate your feedback, we will work harder at better customer satisfaction.

Description of Work: My heater quit on the coldest day of the year (as they will). I lost one day waiting for another heater "specialist," and then I called my contractor for a referral. It was City Plumbing. Ryan Hughes, the owner, came out the next day and we discussed the age of my a/c (32 yrs) and H2O heater (16) as well. He gave me a good price to replace the whole system, and it was done two days later.Luckily, I am in a row house, and the temp never got below 57. His installers were punctual, worked all day, and didn't leave until everything was completed (7pm). They replaced my old thermostat and dropped off a CO detector later, too. They were clean, careful and wiped up where needed. (My basement was crammed and a lot needed to be moved, which ended up motivating me to do some serious clean-up over that week-end, a good thing!) So far, everything seems to be working well.
Everything was great. The person who answered was professional and courteous, they were able to do same day service and I was flexible with the time ("this afternoon") and got a call about an hour later letting me know they were 20 minutes away. They then showed up right on time, assessed and fixed the problem in about 20 minutes, and even gave me tips to keep it unclogged. Would recommend and use them again.

Description of Work: The office staff is responsive, and the plumber was prompt the first time out, but needed to come back with a part the next day. The second time, he came over three hours after the end of the time window quoted by the office, and there was no call or email to let us know he would be late. The work was well done and less expensive than originally quoted.

The plumber CJ arrived early, slightly ahead of schedule, which was fine. Went over the various type of brand, quality and power options for the grinder. And after purchasing the item for a local supplier, had the installation complete. In all, less than three hours. Great job.
