I have use S. Wimmer and Son for any and every plumbing need since I have owned my home - now 25 years! They are always punctual, friendly, fair and honest, and helpful - explaining what is needed and what is not needed, and offering options. They are tidy and efficient, and clean up so well afterward that you would not know that any work had been needed. I trust them 100% and don't see a reason to ever call anyone else.
Description of Work: Over the years they've helped install a new tub faucet and shower head, repair a toilet, install an expansion tank, flush the water heater and replace heating coils.

He had told me that the old water heater was about rusted through almost 2 years ago. When it began to leak, I called Steve and he asked for guidance on size and price of unit. He brought exactly what I asked for and installed it quickly and cleaned up after the job! He also quickly diagnosed the problem as a need for a new faucet as the old one was over 25 years old. He had the new one installed by dinner time when my family was arriving home. Wonderful father-son team that really know their stuff and are completely reliable and fair.
Description of Work: Steve was able to replace a water heater and fix a plumbing issue in our upstairs hall bathroom

Steve Wimmer and his son Casey are the greatest! They arrive on time, dressed in pressed white work shirts. Both are very professional in the way they do their work and in their relationship to the homeowner. We have used S. Wimmer & Son Plumbing for many years as our only plumber that we call. One time the hot water went out when my husband was out of the country on a business trip. Steve arrived the next morning, replaced the hot water tank, rebuilt the piping to the tank, etc. A previous service call here, they installed a back-flow preventor as required by the city, and plumbed the area according the best way possible. They have rebuilt a Sears toilet (not a good bathroom fixture, by the way), replaced the kitchen faucet and hose, replaced three commodes with low water usage ones (and even cut the flooring to fit the new fixtures), and have generally replaced about every plumbing part in this 40 year old house. I cannot say enough good things about S. Wimmer & Son Plumbing. Their work is top notch. And the best part is that there is no mess when they are finished. They hauled away the old water heater, old commodes, and left not even a dirty fingerprint in any of our 5 bathrooms in our house. Their work is A+++++!!
Description of Work: This plumber and his son were here for 3 hours and they completed all of our repair list in record time: replace all pipes under kitchen sink; replace bathtub spout that leaked; replaced shower spray heads; replaced bathroom sink pipes; rebuilt outside hose spigot; Replace the valves for hot water and cold water (behind the dryer) with ball shutoff valves lace hot and cold water valves in basement; several other small projects were also completed

Description of Work: Repaired a pipe that froze and burst. Came on time. Worked efficiently but took about three hours because it required opening walls to access the pipe.Excellent clean up.

I was in the midst of a conference call - they were excellent, respectful of my work schedule, got the refrigerator moved and line fixed and tested all without disturbing my call; very satisfied with the quality of the work, the turnaround, and the price. I highly recommend them.

The Wimmers arrived promptly and presented with a very professional appearance, reminiscent of the Maytag repairman, and that is not meant as sarcasm. They quickly took the work requests and directly went about their tasks. They coordinated as needed, and gave all of their attention to the job. They did a great job explaining what they found and their solutions. They respectfully explained why the parts I provided were less appropriate for the application. They completed their work in just over an hour. Their fees were reasonable, given this is a "fee for service", contract arrangement and they must provide all of their own healthcare costs, retirement, social security, medicare costs individually, as well as for their business. All in all, I highly recommend Wimmer plumbing. One must also expect there may be a wait until they can come to your house, since they are in great demand.
Description of Work: Mr. Wimmer and son adjusted several faucets, fixed a leaking toilet and installed a water line to a freezer ice maker.

His work was fine. Father and son make a good team
Description of Work: Wimmer's price for installing a new dishwasher was marginally lower then the dealer, but it turned out that some plumbing modifications had to be done, which I doubt the dealer installers could have managed. He had to reroute the supply line, put new valve, and install the machine.
