Two guys showed up promptly at time I expected them. They got right to work and did an excellant job. The grates for the exterior drains had not been moved in at least 17 years and were very difficult to remove and mud had to be physically shoveled out of the drain wells before they could even begin to snake the pipes. They got quite a physical workout. I was pleased with their work and would not hesitate to recommend them.
Description of Work: Cleared two exterior drains at bottom of steep driveway that had become completely clogged with mud and debris. Also cleared garage floor drain.

Bob Mertz is great. We have a big old house and have used him several times, initially after a great recommendation from my parents. He is always on time. He is considerate, professional, and has always gone the extra mile to make sure we've been happy with his work. None of the work he has ever done has needed redone or has caused any sort of problem. I have also always found him to be a genuinely nice and likeable guy. Bob has done all of the following for us: replaced a drain trap in a sink, installed two new toilets, installed a new sink, installed a new faucet in another sink, fixed a leaking pipe, installed two new spigots, cleared our basement sewer/drain line, replaced a pipe that had frozen over the winter, and gave me a free tutorial on how to use and maintain our existing boiler/radiant heat system. I can't speak for other customers experiences, but we are very happy with Bob Mertz and will use him exclusively going forward.
Description of Work: Installed new sink and toilet. Cleared block drain/sewer line in basement. Installed two new outdoor spigots.

I've had Bob Mertz and Mertz Plumbing do plumbing work for me for over 20 years. They have always been punctual, arrive when they say; competent, get it right the first time; clean, they cleanup after themselves; and accurate, the estimate is always the same as the final cost. Our toilet and leaks were fixed in no time. I highly recommend Mertz Plumbing and will use them the next time I need plumbing help.

I have used them once. They came and did it quickly. The work was effective. I have not compared the price, but I think it was pretty typical. I got good value for the price. I would certainly use them again in the future.

Mr. Mertz was right on time, very polite and friendly. I thought the price was very reasonable for the amount of time and effort it took to repair my sink and install the faucets. (And he was very nice to my dog!)
Description of Work: Mertz Plumbing installed a new kitchen faucet and sprayer. They also fixed the drain coming from the sink as the fitting had cracked and the pipes separated. The particular section of pipe that needed to be replaced is uncommon, and it was difficult to find a replacement. Once something usable was found, it still needed to be adapted to fit the drainage system. Mr. Mertz worked very hard to make the available parts work. He also found and repaired a crack in another section of pipe that was not readily visible, solving the sporadic water leak mystery.

I HAD BEEN TOLD BY ANOTHER PLUMBING COMPANY THAT THE ENTIRE WALL NEEDED TO BE TORN OUT IN ORDER TO REPAIR THESE FIXTURES. THIS WOULD HAVE INVOLVED REPLACING ALL THE TILE IN THE SHOWER AT A CONSIDERABLE EXPENSE. THE YOUNG MAN FROM MERTZ PLUMBING TOLD ME THAT WAS CERTAINLY NOT THE CASE AND HE MADE THE REPAIRS QUITE EASILY AT A FRACTION OF THE COST OF TEARING OUT THE TILE.
Description of Work: THEY REPAIRED THE FAUCETS INSIDE THE SHOWER WALL. A PORTION OF THE FAUCETS (NOT JUST WASHERS) WERE WORN OUT AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED TO KEEP THEM FROM DRIPPING.
