I hired these guys and agreed on a $3000 price for existing plumbing repair, moving a water heater 3 ft, adding a washer hook up, relocating kitchen sink lines, adding a half bath and getting a clogged sewer line working. Other companies quoted me $ 1000 to $1200 for just the plumbing repair and adding. Therefore, since they were doing everything for $3000.00 I agreed to use them. I supplied 85 % of the materials he used. Everything was in rough in and the walls were open and exposed. However, he started to drill holes in the floor and the drainage lines were just pipes sticking out of the floor when in fact they were supposed to be in the wall. Now I can't use my $ 450.00 modern vanity! He also did not vent my kitchen sink line nor the half bath! He also had my tub fixture 34" off the floor when my tub high is 18"? I pointed this out and he tried to argue with me and I showed him the tub that was sitting in the next room and he lowered the lines! As for my tub I have to do all the plumbing to figure out to connect them properly. He had to redo the drainage pipe from the washer hook up as it was going into the side of my bathtub and it was so high up that I could not install my tub. He had to redo it and put it into the wall as I had a suggestion by another person who looked at this companies handiwork. Instead of venting this line through the roof, he studor vented it and told me to make an access door on the washer hook up side! I questioned the venting and so far I had only one 11/2 " vent line to the roof. He claims that is all I need! This was not what I expected as I have done many houses in the past and venting is most important for the flow of the water as well as the gas smell! I put a floor down and he glued in the flange for the toilet. Then I asked him the next time he came out about my sewage line and he said he is snaking it??? He did and got nowhere. He did not unclogged it and as a result he felt bad for me and lowered the price to $ 2200 which I had to pay him right a way. I was a foul and paid them! Now I have to do all this extra plumbing inside the house and venting and worst of all, he just stuck a 3" pipe in my Galvanized steel main sewage line and siliconed it instead of cutting it out and re-pipe the line. Another company came with a hydrojet and the lines is clogged that it needs replacing at another $ 7000! The toilet flange he installed is 10" from the finished wall!!! I have to repipe this to make a toilet fit in the spot! Major extra expenses! The company that came to do the hydrojet looked at the plumbing job and informed me that it is not at code for the venting scenario. Thanks for nothing! Just another plumbing company that rip's people off! Here is what the code says: "Above roof plumbing vent diameter: in areas exposed to snow or freezing or temperatures below 0 degF., that can block a plumbing vent, the vent pipe should be at least 2" in diameter beginning at least one foot inside the building in an insulated space before the vent passes through the roof." "This diameter increase helps assure adequate air flow into the drain system in the event that the sink basin (in this example) happens to be draining at the same moment that the toilet is flushed. (908.2.3.)"

Never been spoken to by someone hired to do something for me, ever. Yelled at me when asked, just asked about the 3.75% charge for credit cards. He must of been having a bad day but he started screaming at me. After charging $180 to repair water heater but didn't work so I needed it replaced. Very unprofessional

Arrive when expected. Replaced defective pressure relief value and a section of Shark-bite from last install. Tested for pressure and leaks - everything was good. Had them give me an estimate for replacing old copper water pipes thru-out the house. Great employees and fair pricing. I recommend them and will use again.

They sent a plumber who had only been on the job for about 2 weeks. I hired them to repair a shower control in a bathroom. There are 2 baths in the house and the bathtubs back up to each other and share a wall. The plumber informed me that he would have to remove 1 of the showers. Both are 1 piece fiberglass shower units originally installed in the 1970s. He gave me a quote and said he could complete the job in about 4 hours. I told him I doubted that he could complete the work in that time, but he assured me he could. Since I had just completed renovating both baths, he also said that the bath would look the same as it was, when he started the job. The house is empty and he started the job on a Friday. He called me and said he had run into problems and would be back Saturday morning at 7:30. I arrived at 10:00 AM on Saturday morning and the bathroom was practically destroyed. The shower unit was moved out, but the drywall surrounding the unit was destroyed. I had also installed a custom framed mirror, which was damaged on one edge. The new tile floor had a broken tile. He said he could not complete the job that day because he had to get a new control. I went to a home appliance store and bought a new control and ran to the hardware store several times that day to get supplies that he needed. I was determined to have the job completed that day. The owner, Walter Taylor showed up around 2:00 PM and stayed about an hour. I am sure he was as shocked as I was upon seeing the bathroom. The plumber completed the plumbing work around 6 and left me to clean up. I returned Sunday morning and the faucet was leaking, the drain was not assembled correctly and there was only warm water coming out. I called the owner Monday morning and he told me he fired the plumber and would send someone to make the repairs on Wednesday. No one showed on Wednesday or Thursday. I left another message with the owner on Thursday afternoon. I ended up making the plumbing repairs myself and am now installing new drywall and fixing the mirror and floor tile, I had given the plumber a check for $1400 and ended up putting a stop payment on the check. I do not think anyone had tried to cash the check. I can understand getting a plumber who botches a job like this, but I cannot understand why I business owner does not stand by his work. I only wanted the plumbing fixed and was willing to fix the bathroom walls and floors at my own expense and time.
