Response from Kay Plumbing Services
The work was done right and the customer raised no concerns about it whatsoever. Work was completed in 2011. The company always follows the policy of 100% guarantee on any work done. The amount was also authorized and the customer informed of the price before work was started. However the customer would not pay for the invoice despite many reminders and efforts to work with him on the price, offering payment installments etc. The company had no choice but take the customer to court for unresolved bill and the court agreed that the customer was in the wrong. He received a fine and was ordered to pay the outstanding amount however he still never paid it.

The worker was cordial and precise. He conducted himself professionally and asked if I had any questions regarding his work. This is the second time I have used the service. The week previous, they replaced my pressure tank under the house. Based on that experience, I obtained an annual service contract that includes a whole house inspection. That was also done very well. I would definitely recommend Kay Plumbing to anyone who needs service at their home. I will continue to use them myself.

Called at 8AM,was told man would arrive around 9:30. He arrived at 10:45 am.Installed faucet. Charged 254.00 which was to include a service agreement. The agreement was to include a check of the all the house plumbing within the next 10 days. Since that date I called three or four times to find out when they were coming and they do not return my calls. Some one answers the phone takes the message but no further return call from them is made

Kay Plumbing takes customer satisfaction very seriously. The above complaint was immediately discussed in detail with the customer. It turns out (Member name removed) was happy with the job done but extremely disappointed about his unanswered calls. As we discovered (Member name removed) was not calling the office number but the cell phone number of the former Kay Plumbing employee whose phone was later no longer in service. Upon explaining that misunderstanding (Member name removed) was promised a whole house inspection at his early convenience.

Overall they are trust worthy and dependable.
Description of Work: Two brothers working together. Younger brother Matthew did my work. I needed drains, vent pipe replacement on two bathrooms. House is 65 years old and had cast iron. He replaced all drains to toilets, sinks and bath tubs. He made me feel at ease and I was able to trust him at my house without me being there except to let him in. He did excellent work. The work and the experience was so good we signed a contract with them to take care of future problems at a reasonable rate. I highly recommend Kay plumbing.

When I called to schedule the appointment, I requested services from a particular individual who had been referred to me. Because I tried to schedule a particular individual, the repair had to wait several days until he was available. The day he was supposed to come, the company called and told me someone else would make the repair or I would have to wait several more days. Because I needed the repair done and had made special arrangements to be available, I had the repair made that day. The repair person arrived on time and quoted $350 to repair a slow drain. He did not use a snake but simply pulled hair out of the drain. In less than five minutes, the drain was operating normally.

Response from Kay Plumbing Services
The company always offers upfront pricing. In this case as well the customer was informed of the repairs needed and the price that would be charged for it. The work was authorized by the customer. Tub drain and overflow assembly had to be removed to unclog the system and it took more time than quoted 5 minutes. When leaving the customer’s house she was happy with the work done.

I had my backflow preventer checked months ago by Konrad per county requirement. He did a thorough check and found that I had high water pressure. I already knew about the high pressure, but it was higher than I thought so I had him install a regulator. I purchased the yearly plan from Kay's Plumbing to get a better deal on this work and obtain the benefits of the yearly plan. Fast forward to August and I had loud noises and vibrations coming from the pipes under my house. I called Konrad out and he discovered that I had an old regulator in the buried water line leading to the house and the regulator was unmarked. This regulator had gone bad and was causing my vibration issues. Trust me, this was not an easy find by Konrad and he was even willing to consult with others when trying to diagnose the problem so as not to incur unnecessary costs! I appreciate that Konrad has always been quick to respond and willing to discuss his work with me. Kay's Plumbing prices also seem very fair to me.
Description of Work: In April, Konrad checked by backflow preventer & installed a regulator. In August, Konrad found a faulty regulator (not the one he installed) attached to the buried water line leading to the house. This buried regulator has gone bad & was causing vibrations in the pipes. Konrad removed the regulator & reconnected the pipe.

It was pretty expensive. Felt kind of a rip off actually, then again I accepted it; so partially my fault. $600.00 for two faucets. They did provide a really good and quality service how ever their prices were too high. They were professional and cleanly. They were really nice people. I think they send out a plumber that is a sales person as well because as an online marketer myself I know when someone is selling or using marketing strategies on me. Either that or they're doing it unknowingly. However that said, Jason was great, it was an emergency and they came out right away so i give a good rating for that. I give him an A++ but the price was a little high. If you don't mind paying higher for faster service, then I'll let you decide. However if you're looking for the most competitive rate for your money and quality service combined, then no comments on that. Update -- Alright - so since the company's response to this was saying I was not being truthful, I will now reveal the actual costs. Earlier I was actually being nice about it, and wasn't going to be all detailed as I normally am but well now I'm thinking and quot;seriously?and quot;. So it's time to be a little realistic. On the quote itself - - 2 Washing Machine faucets and hoses - $688.00 - Shut off meter - $371.00 = $1059 But with the + $76 (10% off loyalty program) + $39 (for living social $100 off coupon) it was a lot cheaper as the response stated. So in reality, I actually spent well over $900 to be exact with the living social coupon, so that is not an understatement. In fact I put a lower amount there. But this also means if I didn't pay the loyalty program or the living social coupon, my costs would be the above. As an online marketing consultant, I understand all about customer loyalty programs, which are a great way for companies to create backend profits which I have nothing against - I think it's great that Kay offers these safety inspections and everything. Kay appears to be catering primarily to people that have a lot more money by providing a surperior service, which is fine. That said, I am going to be truthful in all the pros and all the cons and I'll let you decide on all the facts whether or not to use Kay Plumbing.

The customer received prompt and high quality service. Kay Plumbing uses high quality materials, is clean, friendly, always professional and licensed. We warranty our work for one year and we take pride in the jobs done. The customer did not pay $900.00 for the work as is claimed, actually it was $876.00 and that included $76 the customer chose to pay to join the company's Service Plan which entitles you to two free safety inspections and numerous discounts.

Konrad and his worker were thorough, courteous, professional, and we didn't have to clean-up after his work was done. Good estimate, including "what-ifs", book of clearly delineated prices. We bought an older (1937) home that had gone from being well-kept to a rental, so there was a mash-up of good and bad plumbing when we bought it. Konrad verified what the home inspector had reported and we came up with a plan to fix the most obvious problems over three visits. All three visits went exactly as promised.

Our water main broke on a Sunday so I called Kays that afternoon, as it claimed they were a 24/7 shop. They arrived quickly, informed me of the call fee (i forget what it was, either $50 or $75) and then proceed to help me locate the leak (which entailed me turning the water on long enough for it to gush water up). They then informed me that it would be $230 AN HOUR to dig. Seeing as how I already paid the on site fee, I told them to go ahead. They dug for maybe 5 - 10 minutes and then called me out to show me the leak. The pipe had burst at a right angle and a second pipe, an unused sprinkler system, was ruptured beside it (I find it hard to believe that the pick axe didn't play a part in a second pipe unused pipe bursting right next to the one in question). Before continuing on with the service, they gave me their estimate for the work. They charged me for half an hour (i guess they work in half hour increments!) of digging and to repair both pipes was going to be somewhere north of $430.00. Needless to say I told them no and did it my self, like I should have to begin with. They claimed their rates were less expensive on normal business hours, which I would expect, but $230 an hour to dig and over $200 to quickly mend 2 3/4" pipes is outrageous to me.

Response from Kay Plumbing Services
The feedback was offered over a month after the job was completed and it contains a lot of inaccurate information. Firstly, Kay Plumbing completed work on January 16th not 21st and the customer was charged $156.00 instead of $175.00 as he claims. It was an emergency call on Sunday and we showed up within 30 minutes. The customer was informed over the phone prior to us going to the location about the weekend service charge which is $49.50 not $75.00 as he claims. The leak was in the ground and so we needed to dig through clay and rocks in order to locate it. We were able to find the leak only within 25 minutes of hard work (2 people digging) and charged for that exact time while most plumbing companies would charge an hourly rate. I believe it was a very fair price for digging and locating a leak on a Sunday. The customer was informed about the location of the leaks on two pipes and instructed what repairs needed to be done in order to fix the problems. The customer pointed out that one of the pipes might have been accidentally broken by us while digging which I was not sure about however willing to fix both pipes at the price of one to satisfy the customer. The customer was instructed that repairs would call for an after hour charges since it was a Sunday. The quoted total price was $315.00 (not $430.00!) without a service plan. However, the customer was offered a possibility of saving on these higher weekend charges by joining a Plumbing Service Plan which is very affordable and would save over $100.00 on repairs on that day and a lot of money on future repairs regardless of the time or day of the week making that customer’s plumbing problems always a priority. Kay Plumbing never charges after hours fees with our service plan. Nevertheless, the customer chose to fix the problem himself. We explained thoroughly what the plumbing problem was and where exactly it was located so he could continue on his own. I stand by my work, always strive to make my customers satisfied and believe the charges are fair and reasonable. Konrad Orzechowski President of the company Master Plumber
