My purchased Jado faucet was missing a nut and had extraneous parts to boot. Mike and his co-worker kindly volunteered to goto C&D Hardware down the street and they successfully procured the part they needed (at no extra charge to me). Overall wonderful experience and would use this company for all services they offer.

I have used this company before. It is very easy to schedule an appointment for an estimate. The gentleman that come out are very professional and courteous. You don't get any kind of hard sell on plumbing services; just a straight forward estimate on the repair and cost.

Discussed possibilities of adding point of service heater or recirculating hot water in pipes to improve problem. They were knowledgeable about these but were very supportive of trying an inexpensive solution and if needed later doing a major repair.
Description of Work: I called plumber who also installs hot water heaters because of delay of recieving hot water in far end of house and possible low water pressure. They cleaned faucels and replaced aerators, which improved problems dramatically.

The staff person who booked the appointment was unusually cordial. Wayne the co-owner arrived on-time for a kitchen faucet replacement, using one I had purchased myself. He replaced all the materials under the sink, and explained what he was doing as he went along. He did not try to sell me other services or trade me up to better materials. After he had finished he thoroughly cleaned up the work area. I couldn't have been more impressed. I have already recommended S&B Sugar Land to many friends because of the value, reliability, and professionalism.

Our home is over 60 years old, so we feared we were going to have to replace at least some of the supply lines to correct what had over time become chronically low water pressure in the kitchen and the master shower. Turned out that all that was required was cleaning out (and in the shower, replacing), the water flow restrictor 'valves' now required by federal regualtions. S&B diagnosed the problem immediately. They had to make a second trip with the replacement part for the shower, but they came back out in two days (after the weekend) and didn't charge us anything until the "fix" was complete.

HIGHLY recommend S&B Plumbing. I will never use another service again.
Description of Work: I have never experienced a more friendly or honest company than S&B Plumbing. They, by far, surpass any service available in the area. I had a very well known (and overly advertised) company come out and give me an estimate for a foul odor in the house. That company wanted to charge me $600.00 to remove the toilets and a "special" price of $1999.99 to perform a "required" static testing. Mike and his partner with S&B came out the next day, removed the toilet, resealed, and identified the ACTUAL source of the problem in less than an hour and for under $200.00.

I first made a call during the latter part of November for a quote on cleaning out my drain pipes. The response was that there was a charge for the plumber to go out but would be credited toward the service if we used them. I agreed and two individuals arrived later that day promptly for inspection. After inspection, they said that another crew would have to come out and use a specialized piece of equipment called a jeter to clean out the pipes and they would call back with a time next week. A week went by with no call and then the following week, we received a call that they would come out the following Monday. Nobody showed up on Monday, Upon calling the company later, they stated that they were a man down and would come out the following day. Upon arrival the following day, they started work using the jeter and started probing at a drain in the front yard with the reasoning that this must be the drain from the drains from the back of the house. The probe then got stuck in the drain and it took two days to get the probe unstuck. The probe apparently got suck on some underground roots that had broken through the drain. After digging the probe out, it was discovered the that front drain was actually a storm drain for excess rainwater from the street so that it would drain into another underground drain. They then went to back of the house and dug up the rear drains and probe it to discover that the rear drains drained to the empty field in the lot behind my house. As the drains exits were now all underground, he did not feel that these would be worth it to get cleaned out. The service provider then set an appointment to show me the work and suggested that I get gutter expert to look at my situation. He then agreed to provide an estimate to put in new underground drains to connect with the main drain and to fill in the dirt in the holes that he had dug to investigate the rear drain on the next day. Needless to say this was never completed. I provided payment of $450 but did not agree to the total balance of $1073.75 as the problem was never fixed. All in all when you combine this with the no-shows, and the non-completion of items that were promised, it was a terrible experince with this company
Description of Work: S+B Plumbing was hired to clean out underground drain pipes from gutters in the rear of the house.

Response from S & B Plumbing Inc
Dear member, Please allow me to respond to your review, we strive very hard to communicate efficiently and to satisfy all of our customer's requests. I personally take full responsibility in the miscommunication with scheduling your job in a timely manner as I am the one that takes care of emergencies like broken water lines, sewer lines or gas lines. In response to your Angie's List post, there are a few details you left out: 1) I successfully cleared the drain at the front left corner of the house, and determined that it exits to the left of your driveway and not in the middle of the yard. 2) You forgot to mention that you and your wife both told me that the pipe coming through the curb by the mailbox used to have water coming through it when it rained but no longer did so you both thought it was stopped up and wanted me to run the jetter through it, this is also where the extra charge of $573.75 came in. Let me explain. We ran our jetter in the drain towards the house in an attempt to clear line; after putting nearly 150' of hose in, it still did not reach the backyard. ( A Jetter performs better when going at a clog and pulling towards you rather than from behind pushing) We attempted to pull our hose out, but to no avail. We ran our camera in your yard drain ($250.00 NO CHARGE) and found that it was lodged in a broken pipe. We excavated the area 5' deep which took over 6 hours with 3 men. We discovered the drain was actually a storm drain for Country Club Blvd that the City of Sugar Land had installed years ago to help remove water from the street. This work to get our Jetter out of your drain should have been billed out at $1100-$1200, but I took half of the responsibility and charged you the $573.75 that has still not been paid. 3) After retrieving our hose we moved to the back yard to clear gutter down spouts. There were no cleanouts installed, so we had cut out a section of pipe to gain access. We ran the Jetter down both down spouts and found that the lines were extended to the back of your property and buried 8-10" below grade, broken and in need of replacement. 4) I finally got to meet you late one evening, after hours, and show you everything I had done. I went over what procedures we could do to solve the issues, with your gutters and down spouts, and how to reroute the drains. You were correct in stating I never gave you a formal written estimate and yes, I left the down spouts disconnected, but re-installing them on drains that didn't work could result in water coming into your house like before. 5) Your secretary contacted me on Tuesday, January 21st and I went over your job at length , and told her I would be happy to come back out and repair the downspouts and give a formal estimate for what needs to be done, but I never heard back from you. Sincerely, Bo Burke S&B Plumbing Inc.

There were some communication issues at first by not getting back with me. But they eventually remembered vaguely that I needed to be contacted. So they finally did contact me and came out to look at my situation at no charge then offered advice and a solution to correct my drainage problem which would not involve them. They actually recommended I call someone in a completely different area of work because they would be less expensive. But also said they would do the work if I wanted them to. I was very pleased with their assessment, attitude and attention.

Our hot water heater went out Monday night. I went to Angies List, found Sugar Land Plumbing, called them Tuesday morning and Stephen and Brad came out that morning. They were both very professional and courteous. They assessed the problem and repaired it within 20 minutes at a very reasonable price. Knowing we will need to replace our unit soon, I asked for a quote which Stephen provided. He was very thorough and detailed with his quote and explanation. I can't imagine ever going anywhere else for plumbing services.

Response from S & B Plumbing Inc
In response; Our service tech recommended to [member name removed] that he could contact the manufacturer to get the correct parts sent directly to him (typically free of charge from the manufacturer to the end user/homeowner) and that we would return to install the parts once he received them. I'm not quite sure why [member name removed] did not contact the manufacturer for the parts or call us back to complete the repair. Furthermore S & B Plumbing did not charge [member name removed] for going to his home to diagnose the problem.

My regular plumber did an inspection and noted that the water heaters t&p valve was not working. They couldn't check anode rod due to corrosion. Since both units were over 9 years old decided to go ahead and replace. The price given by the plumber seemed high, and I didn't like the brand of water heater they were going to use. Called S & B for another estimate. Mike came out a couple days later and did an inspection, gave me an estimate that was so much more reasonable. We ended up having them install the water heaters. Unfortunately , because of the difference in size from the old units, a little roof work was needed. Mike got on the phone with Ochoa roofing, and we quickly arranged a time for them to do the necessary repairs. Very pleased with the service. Will definitely call them when we need a plumber.

Purchased a new hot water heater from them and they installed and took the old one away. Replaced hardware in bathroom sinks (2), installed two carbon monoxide detectors. They did an excellent job.

One of the drainage pipes outside of our home in the backyard had a slow drip which indicated a water heater leak. I decided to call S & B Plumbing in SugarLand because the company I work for, Anson Aviation, had used their services recently and the owner was very pleased with their promptness and cost. The operator at S & B Plumbing informed me that she had a technician in the area who could be on site within the hour which was fantastic. Within minutes, I received another call from the technician saying that he was only 2 minutes away! Richard (quite the character) and Larry, his assistant, promptly arrived as indicated and I proceeded to show them the slow drip outside and then led them to our upstairs attic space. He assessed the situation and told us that a new water heater, unfortunately was the only fix for our issue. I agreed and they immediately went into action. It took them only 2 hours!! This included going to pick up the new water heater, remove and replace our current water heater, bring everything up to city code, and completely clear away all the debris. These guys were great and I will definitely call them again for future repairs...but of course, I hope to not need their services for awhile.
