So I checked into the PRV (pressure reducer valve) cost at Lowe's and found them to be around $80, and online costs to install at $200 or less. When I called Will's plumbing for an estimate (as I had thought I'd go with them if $300 or under), the operator took my details and then said she'd get back to me after contacting the plumber that had provided service for a quoted price. My callback quote was for $925 for a possible extension tank and so called city compliance codes. Very over-priced and I opted to forego that estimate and try myself or elsewhere. I called back to inform them of my negative rating pending on Angie's List and was given the GM - Will. He listened to me patiently enough and then validated their pricing and quote being the upper end if everything "additional" was required. I told him I felt they were "fishing" and prices were way overboard. I hung up on him and placed this post. I recommend everyone to do a little research on/off Angie's list for types of repair costs, parts costs, etc.... (Will had actually told me he didn't know Lowes carried but they used quality parts.....- I'm sure Home Depot and Lowes don't carry subpar plumbing). Do it yourself if you can, invite a friend if they know how or shop around but I do NOT recommend Will's Plumbing in San Antonio for your first choice unless you know them). Quality of their workmanship seems fine so far but you pay for it, but not deductive reasoning or competitive pricing. I've found two others with pricing under $350 including the part provided but I had to start in with my story of this too....I'll update this saga if I go with the one from Angie's
Description of Work: Inspected for water leak in first floor ceiling at kitchen pantry. Deduced that it was from the upstairs toilet and would have to pull it to inspect at a cost of $325 per his book or second option to cut the ceiling. I opted on his advice to pull the toilet, it wasn't the problem so he had to cut a hole in my ceiling to determine the leaking pipe, fix it and then charged another $100. In addition to this service, he informed me my water pressure to my house was too high at 92psi and should be below 80psi. I feel like I should've been able to get the leak fixed for $325 maximum since it wasn't the problem of a toilet leaking and should've included his lack of diagnosis. I understand the ceiling repair replacement and that cost is on me.

I do remember this person. I did speak to him at length about our pricing. He informed me that his father was a plumber, that he could get the part for $30 (I checked Lowe's website, they are over $60 ) he then proceeded to explain he could put it in himself in about 30min. or so. He didn't have any idea what the purpose of the extension tank, (this is his wording, it's actually an EXPANSION tank) was used for. I explained the necessity of the expansion tank when a pressure reducing valve is installed in your potable water system. He wasn't very polite, to say the least, and I am at a loss as to why he would call another plumber when his own FATHER is a plumber........ I find it very disingenuous when people who are not professionals in a given field, purport to know what it costs to run given business. I've been in the plumbing industry for over 25 years, and can tell you that it takes MUCH longer than 30mins. to install a pressure reducing valve, that we are required to pull permits, required to carry liability insurance, pay taxes, etc. I'm sorry he called us and didn't hear what he wanted to hear. I charge a fair price so I can pay my employees a living wage, pay the bills, and pay for all the necessary expenses it takes to run a top-notch plumbing company. No, we don't show up in Dos Equis tee shirts, no we don't show up in unmarked vehicles, no my people are not commissioned sales people, YES we do GUARANTEE OUR WORK. I care about my customers, I'm always here to answer their questions and concerns, and we are a professional plumbing company that in being so requires some overhead. Thank you for your review, just please......next time tell the WHOLE STORY, not just the part about how you didn't like the price. Will Shilling

VERY overinflated cost of the requested service. Cancelled the service when I was shown the price and proceeded to go to Home Depot and buy the part myself. It was $8.00 and it took me about 3 or 4 minutes to install it. I was shocked at the $535 price I would have paid if I had let the service tech do the work for me. He was very punctual, professional and knowledgeable but I just couldn't believe the 5000% markup on the part and service. I told him I would do it myself and he was very kind and thanked me for calling the company, however I doubt I will ever call again if the prices are this inflated.
Description of Work: When I found out the cost of the requested service I decided to cancel the job and I proceeded to do the job myself. My quote was for $535.00! I went to Home Depot and bought the part I needed for about $8.00 and it took about 3 or 4 minutes to install it. An $8 part and a 3 minute installation and they were asking $535!!! The service tech that came to the house was punctual, professional and knowledgeable so I have no problems with him. Only the ridiculous price. Based on the price I doubt I will ever use them again.

I checked into this, the price quoted was for replacing the complete waste and overflow on the bath tub. He had a trip-lever waste and overflow. I spoke with my plumber and questioned him as to why he didn't offer to change the trim only to a tip-toe system which would have been less expensive. I am sorry that this went this way, and I will be conducting further training with the field so as to prevent this from happening again. Thank you for your feed-back, Will Shilling

On Christmas Eve our garbage disposal quit working. With a house full of family, and several large meals to prepare, we needed help fast. I called several local plumbing companies and Will's Plumbing was the only company who could get here on the same day. They arrived within two hours! The disposal was shot - they replaced it and also gave us the option to clear the pipes to eliminate possible blockage from poorly ground garbage from the old disposal. The price was acceptable, including Angie's Lust and Senior discounts.
Description of Work: Replaced disposal & cleaned the pipes. Their price included a new disposal, labor, discounts and no "rush" or "special" fees.

Description of Work: Squirrel had crawled down pipe stopping up the bathroom sink. We had Zesus plumbing come out originally and after several hits tell us that we had roots in our pipe. They said they could fix it for $8000 dollars. Wow! We got two other estimates thinking we had roots in our pipes. Wills came out and offered a different solution! A squirrel in the pipe. They were right and Zesus was wrong. They did a great job. We also had them set a toilet for us which they also did a great job! They have a customer for life now!

Wills Plumbing was called to manage a small leak on the shut off valve for a hose bib hook up for a washer and also hook up a dryer that we brought with us on a recent move to our home. The scheduler was very helpful on the phone and said they could take care of it and the plumber would be there within an hour. Sure enough they were very prompt and arrived as promised. We had selected Wills Plumbing based on their rating and reviews on Angies List. This is where the good news ends and the bad news begins. We were initially told the repair would be about $200.00. This quickly escalated to almost $500.00 and eventually when the plumber encountered difficulty in addressing the problem escalated again to almost $800.00 and even further when we were offered several options to address the problem. As the leak was very small and into a drain in the hose bib connection anyway, we felt this was an exorbitant estimate and told the plumber to simply hook it up as it was and we would live with the very small leak into the drain for the time being. After the plumber left we discovered that he had actually made the leak considerably worse in his attempt to address the problem. We therefore had to call another plumber. The second plumbing service we called was here promptly and was able to address the initial problem with the small leak at the hose bib by simply tightening a nut on the valve. The charge for this was minimal. However, we still had the leak caused by the efforts of the plumber from Wills Plumbing. Wills Plumbing had actually broken a weld on an elbow joint on the pipe connected to the hose bib. Hence we had to address this problem with the help of the second plumber. He was able to address the problem fairly easily and accomplished the necessary repair for a charge of only about $100.00. I am not sure why Wills Plumbing not only did not address the initial problem as easily as the second plumber we called. Perhaps the plumbing technician sent was simply not experienced enough to do such a simple repair. Or, there may be some other reason. Also the inappropriate efforts of Wills Plumbing not only did not address the original issue correctly, they also caused a much more serious problem. Additionally, the cost quoted for the original repair, although misdiagnosed by Wills Plumbing, was many times higher than the eventual cost of a successful repair of the more serious problem caused by Wills Plumbing. Not only would I not use Wills Plumbing again, I would strongly recommend, based on my experience with them, not using them for any plumbing repair. This was also a very unhappy experience with A rated service providers on Angies List and one of my earliest attempts at using Angies List to select a service provider for my new location after our recent move. I will not cancel my Angies List membership based on a single experience but certainly hope my next use of an Angies List service provider is a happier and more successful experience.

Response from Will's Plumbing & Testing Service
I am aware of this issue. We let this customer down and for that I am truly sorry. The plumber who went out there had only just received his plumbing license (journeyman) only a few months prior to this incident. Though he passed the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners test, he couldn't pass ours. He did not possess the confidence nor attention to detail that we require of our plumbers/technicians in the field. We gave him a chance, but do to this and several other issues encountered, (prior to this incident) has required us to demote the individual back to apprentice status until he has proven his competency in dealing with all aspects of the trade. He is a valued employee, and I am loathe to terminate without taking every opportunity to improve our training methods for our younger and less experienced plumbers. I spoke at length with the customer, he was very gracious and even sent me pictures of the piping that was damaged. I have sent them the full refund of their invoice and hope that in the future they will give us another chance. If they don't, I understand. We care about each and every customer. They are why we are here and we want them to know how important they are to us. Thank you for the review. It helps us to know what we need to do to improve. W.S.

We were in a huge bind as we had movers at the house but couldn't disconnect the ice maker (on the fridge) line since the valve in the wall was stuck open. I called Will's at 6pm and they sent someone out at 9am the next morning. Problem was fixed in less than an hour with no drywall being cut. Saved us big time.

Upon arrival discovered the leak was coming from the blowout valve. This part was replaced & the tank was drained & refilled. The guys cleaned up the area well & were done in 3 hours. A lot of sediment reduces the draining severely so it took a long time to drain.
