It was just like clock work. We called on Friday afternoon and the plumber arrived mid morning on Monday. He called to let us know he was on his way.
Description of Work: The young man replaced the main faucet, the reverse osmosis faucet and the drain line. He was very profesional and knew exactly what was needed to detach the rusted part of the drain line that had broken off. He also installed the new faucet which we had purchased ourselves. He worked steadily for 3 hours. He also replaired leaking faucets on the master bathtub. Everything is working fine and we are glad to be able to use the kitchen sink and faucet again.

I came to Houston from California to see my sick Father and soon found out his toilets were not working properly and sometimes not at all...not good. I subscribed to Angie's List so I would get a reliable referral for a plumber in the area. Everyone at Milton Frank Plumbing was considerate, professional, a very helpful. Ryan was prompt to the appointment and tried to salvage the very out of date toilets. He was able to get one toilet to work better but determined the toilets must be replaced.
Description of Work: After Ryan spent a considerable amount of time trying to fix the toilets it was determined that they were too old and obsolete to repair.

The plumber called about 30 minutes before the appointment to confirm the scheduled time. He arrived during the scheduled window of time, and immediately began working on the tubs. He quickly determined how he was going to fix the problem, showed me the estimate, and began work. The work was completed with no problems. I will definitely use Milton Frank again in the future.
Description of Work: Two bathtub drains were cleaned.

Professional, on time, and didn't make a mess..........the nicest guys I deal with!
Description of Work: Replaced all of the horizontal pipes that were left after my bath remodel. While up in the attic, they noticed that the water heater was not properly installed - they moved it and put it up to code - they also noticed that two of my ducts were just pumping cold air into the attic.....I just got my electric bill - they saved me $300!!!!!! Finally, which was also totally unexpected, they cleared a pipe in the kitchen, and replaced all of my aerators.........NICE!

Milton Frank is a good plumber to work with. They are reasonable and responsive to emergencies. I had them recommended to me by a neighbor who was a plumber himself but retired. Others have said they are expensive but you get what you pay for. Milton Frank has shown me quality people and quality work. I will use them again.
Description of Work: On two weekends had 3 separate water line leaks. They came out promptly to patch them and then scheduled the repair to fit my schedule. My wife has health concerns with dust and chemicals. They were very sensiotive to the problem and worked with me. In addition to the leak repairs they installed a filter to remove some chemicals and particulates which have shown up in the water supply following a shift to surface water by the water company. Quality workmanship and pleasant to work with.

A leaky water heater required prompt service by a plumber. The office gave us a same day appointment and the technician showed up promptly at the arranged time. The water heater needed to be replaced and he suggested we call the original installer since it was still warranteed. Turns out that company is now merged with another and would not service the model they originally installed. Long story short, the manufacturer honored the warrantee and we arranged for the Milton Frank plumber to install the next morning. The same tech arrived right on time. He not only performed the work, cleanly and promptly....but did a minor repair to the kitchen faucet while waiting for the heater to drain. We would use this company again.. I thought the cost was a bit high for a few hours work....but then we know that plumbers are expensive!

Every thing is working as planned, no problems no regrets. Would use them over again, if I ever did a different plumbing project.
Description of Work: We did a major remodel on out master bath, Milton Frank has been our plumber for some time. So when the contractor said he used them as his plumbers, it worked out great. We got a good discount as being established customers. They sent the same two guys though out the month and a half of work. The site was cleaned up and put back to normal every night. The guys were understanding to all of the delays and mishaps that come with a major remodel. We also decided to go with a tankless water heater at the same time. We have called them to the house with the usual plumbing problems, they call before they arrive and always get to the source of the problem quick. I would recommend them to anyone in the area that is in need of a plumber to establish relationships with. You never know when you'll need a plumber, it's good to have on that knows you. Mary

We had a problem with the drains in the master bath clogging. Milton Frank came out quickly each time and unclogged it. This time we let them put a camera in the drains to see if there was a serious problem. Also installed a new Kohler toilet that is so much better than our old builder grade toilet. They were fast, professional, and cleaned up after.
Description of Work: Scoped drains, removed clog and installed a new toilet.

My old galvanized pipe had developed a leak, again, and need to be replaced. They arrived on time each day and completed the job in just four days. Each day they explained what they would be doing and what would have to be done. They were great about answering all my questions and addressing my concerns.

They did okay. The water heater was fine, but the leak in one of the master bathroom sinks was never totally fixed after numerous attempts but I am now in the process of having that bathroom remodeling. I was very pleased with the water heater installation. Their technicians are very friendly.

Fantastic! It was the best $600 that I have ever spent. I was worried that they would have to take down the wall and he was bale to do it all because he understood the product so well! He even taught me how to take them apart in the future if I ever needed to.
Description of Work: We had a shower installed two years ago by a contractor. It is elaborate with body sprayers etc. After two years, it would no longer work. We called Kohler who gave us Milton Frank as their rep. They were much further north than us and were reluctant to come into West Houston. We agreed to pay an extra charge for them to come. The Kohler expert was on time, professional and basically incredibly knowledgeable. He took them all apart, cleaned them out and replaced the "rusty" elbows. The contractor has put in galvanized elbows that rusted and he also removed building putty, pipe junk etc etc. They are now amazing and work better than when initially installed

They were installing the shower figures in one of the bathrooms. While installing the new bathtub water overflowed onto the floor in that bathroom. It leaked onto the ceiling below. I said it was their fault and they need to repaint the ceiling. The manager at Milton Frank said it wasn't their fault. They finally deducted the cost to fix the ceiling. When the work was done I discovered the shut off water valve to the house was broken. They were the only ones using that valve. It was covered with scratch marks and the plumbing company I called to replace it said it wasn't from normal wear!!! Not a mystery.
Description of Work: They did most of the plumbing work in 2 bathrooms

We smelled gas on the evening of 7/6/2010. Using the shut off valve to the cooktop did not help and we called the emergency number for our gas company. We had a leak and the next morning our landlord came to take a look. He called Milton Frank Plumbing, with whom he has had prior dealings. They were prompt, said they would be on site between 1 and 4 pm and showed up at 1:35. They performed a very professional job, however they would only speak to the landlord and not to me. Throughout the experience I kept trying to find out exactly what was going on and what they were doing. The service rep seemed to view my efforts as something of an annoyance however and, when he did answer, it was with a huge sigh, or a snarky comment. When I stated that I needed to call the gas company to have them check if there were any further leaks I was told, wrongly, that they (gas company) did not need to be called. They did, in fact, need to be called because the meter was coded as "off" and, on the next meter read, we would have been accused of stealing gas. Also, if the gas is turned on incorrectly it could lead to a whole host of issues. The gas company rep stated that if he had known that they (Milton Frank Plumbing) were going to turn the gas back on he would have taped the meter and fined the company. Needless to say I did not appreciate being treated in the manner that I was, nor was I happy that I received advice that would have gotten me fined or worse. I will, most assuredly, not recommend Milton Frank to anyone I know.
Description of Work: Replaced a corroded gas line to the cooktop. We do not know what the price was, as the landlord paid the bill.

As always, Milton Frank's responsiveness is outstanding, They came on the same day I called to check a couple of leaking faucets and a slow to flush commode. They were up front about the commode-it's just the model/type and nothing will make it work any better. Were unable to find a part for another faucet handle that's worn out. But perfectly fixed the leaking faucet in master bath. Their price is high, but they do good work.

WONDERFUL....of course, tankless water hearters are not cheap....but it's been 7 months now and everything works GREAT!!.
Description of Work: Woke up one morning(Saturday) to a major hot water heater leak(25+ yr old heater leaking to 1st floor kitchen) . I made a 911 call to Milton Frank (1st time service call) and they scheduled a service man to come by as soon as one was available. They called back to give me an update and ETA (2-3hrs) due to heavy service calls that day, but they got to my house during the time they promised. The service man worked very hard...the old heater was rusted and the release value was rusted shut.....and broke off. Very difficult access to the unit (in the 2nd story attic). The service man was very professional ....took his time....and stopped the leak. He made replacement recommendations...I choose a new tankless heater instead of a conventional tank unit. Milton Frank installed the new unit and added a new gas line. The service man (and helpers) were all very easy to work with...in fact, I hated to see them leave. We all had a GREAT time.

gas leak repair

We'd been having a gas leak on a line that feeds some outdoor firepits in our backyard since we had some real cold weather here in Houston. Milton Frank told us it would be a $50 charge to come out. The tech came out on time and checked all the gas lines inside and out and told me he didn't find anything wrong. Then he proceeded to charge me $250 for the gas inspection. btw - we had another company out previously checking for leaks and they were there for 4 hours and charged us nothing. The tech wrote on the form that he tightened a nut to fix a leak but he told me verbally that he didn't find anything. When I spoke to the service mgr - Mark - he stated that they don't quote charges over the phone; they just tell you what the truck roll is going to cost. I believe: 1. the tech lied in his report just to say he found something because he told me multiple times the opposite, and 2. Milton Frank should have told me upfront that a gas inspection would cost ~$250 BEFORE I contracted their services. Instead they told us it was $50. I believe Milton Frank purposely misled us and that's their policy. They knew the minimum charge for an inspection would be $250. The ironic thing is I don't believe $250 is too high for the time that was spent. I just don't like doing business with people that aren't honest and upfront. Set appropriate expectations.
