I called to get an estimate on main sewer pipe excavation and repair. I told him that I had two different plumbing companies that used cameras to check the sewer pipe and marked the spot. But he still required me to pay for his own camering before making any estimate. I refused to do it.

As this is more of a general review and not a specific one, due to the nature of the situation, I cannot really give a "start to finish" story here, other than to say I have been impressed with ME Flow on each call, from the folks in the office, who are professional and courteous, to the guys in the field, who know their stuff and do it well.
Description of Work: As a real estate agent who often helps homeowners coordinate repair work, I have had multiple occasions to use ME Flow for a variety of issues. I am impressed with their responsiveness, as well as their ability to give me ballpark estimates based on a home inspection report. Their estimates have always been right on the money and they have been able to schedule appointments right away whenever I have called them to have work done. I have never had a complaint about the quality of their work and they show up when they say they will. I will continue to use them on a regular basis.

A neighbor recommended ME Flow to me as a bit more expensive than the typical plumber, but a better value because they are high-quality, punctual, professional and available. All this turned out to be correct. We have had them out twice to fix minor plumbing issues, and each time they were super-fast, showed up in the correct time window, and were clear and professional about what they did. I definitely paid more (I'm guessing, but I'd say about 20% more) than I have previously paid but I got much better service, and on balance I would prefer to choose that tradeoff and I will definitely use ME Flow again.

Description of Work: I used M E Flow to replace my entire air conditioning system. It was an emergency call and they spent about an hour. They put a band-aid on it and then came back two days later to install the system.

ME Flow was recommended by a neighbor for plumbing and an acquaintance from church for heating and A/C so I gave them a call. Technician was honest and offered several options for both repairing and replacing our nine-year old builder grade heating and A/C unit. There was no pressure for a particular option, just an honest evaluation of what the ramifications would be although he did have to "call the boss" to agree to some of my minor haggling. We selected a 15 SEER, variable speed, two stage American Standard full replacement system which included a ten-year parts and labor warranty. Installation personnel were professional and pleasant to speak with, on time, took extreme care to cover the floor and furniture and cleaned up after themselves as if they were never here. It is VERY difficult to compare prices without being charged a service call from the other companies and the supply warehouses will not divulge the equipment cost to a retail consumer. A very thorough internet search yielded no information. Although I marked excellent for price - I probably should have marked N/A since there is no way to tell. I can say that this time of year (between seasons) is an extremely slow time (our install was the next day) for these companies and I recommend asking for their lowest price and then making an offer from there. If you want to pay for a few of the highly recommended companies to come out and provide quotes - make sure you know what you want to ensure you are comparing comparable systems. Overall experience - EXCELLENT and I think I received a good price. I especially like that I am building what I hope to be a long term relationship with this company. ME Flow receives my highest recommendation.
Description of Work: Evaluated poor air flow and found blower fan to be okay but compressor to be extremely low on freon and moving towards full failure (confirming another company's evaluation during our spring check-up)...other company (Master's Heating and Cooling) is based in Gaithersburg and I was hoping to support a local Leesburg (or at least NoVa) company going forward - hence the switch. Options presented were 1) test for leakage ($275) and then top off with refrigerant ($150-$250), 2) top off with refrigerant ($150-$250) and hope it lasts until the spring or 3) replace the compressor and coils (where any leak would most likely be) for $3,600. A full system replacement was not an offered option until I asked and decided not to put off the inevitable. Least expensive was 13 SEER, single stage, single speed for $5,400 up to over $9,500 for the best 20 SEER dual stage, variable speed. We went middle of the road 15 SEER dual stage, variable speed because it included a ten-year parts and labor warranty. Lesser systems were parts only.

Great start, fine promises, total inability to deliver on promises.
Description of Work: Requested estimate to completely refurbish my home's HVAC system. Patrck Bogden of ME Flow visited in early July, and appeared competent and professional. Concurred with my plan to replace two a/c units and associated air handlers with heat pumps and new air handlers for one portion of the house where the equipment was over 20 years old. For the newer portion of the house, which had a ground source heat pump doing both heating and cooling, the cooling part was problematic. Patrick stated that a new heat pump and air handler for the new portion of the house would work well in tandem with the ground source heat pump. He stated that he would provide an estimate within the next three days. I called to remind. No action. On Aug 10 I emailed. He responded saying he would get back to me by noon. Still no response. It is a $30,000 job, and I have gone with another provider, but it remains a mystery to me why ME Flow made promises they did not keep. Why show up for an estimate, represent your company is competent to do a job, and promise to furnish a written estimate, and then ignore the customer?

Cleaned out the blocked kitchen drain. Technican Johno was professional and efficient, did a through whole house inspection as part of service agreement that we entered into. Inspection included hot water heater pressure & electrical check. Water pressure regulator check, and check of all plumbing to sinks, toilets, tubs, and showers. We would not hesitate to use this plumber or his firm again.

M.E. Flow responded quickly to a Monday morning call and arrived within three hours. I appreciated the quick response since my usual repair company couldn't come out until the next morning. I authorized the minimum repairs to get the system running for a few days. Then M.E. Flow gave me a price quote for additional items needed to fully repair the system. Then I contacted my usual repair company (Mannix Heating and Cooling) to make the major/final repairs. M.E. Flow's prices were at least 30% higher. For some items, like freon, their prices were double. Their price for replacement of the fan blower motor was $200 higher than other quotes. I was willing to pay a higher price for what amounted to emergency repairs, but I would not hire M.E. Flow again for non-emergency services where high prices are not justified.
Description of Work: M.E. flow performed A/C repair after the system broke during the hottest week of the month.

ME Flow came out a day earlier than anyone else could get us in. We still had to wait 2 days with no a/c. They tested for leaks and found substantial leaks in the coils. Showed us with their equipment where the leaks were. Replaced the a/c unit both inside and out with a new unit. Signed us up for a maintenance contract which saved us money on the installation. The guys were friendly and seemed to know what they were doing. No complaints.
Description of Work: Checked a/c unit for leaks. Replaced existing a/c unit with new, both inside and out.

. We ended going with them because they had had something like 28 positive reviews. But we ended up with a snag. They told us that there was one repair that needed to get done. But when they did get that first repair they, then found a trekking problem. The scheduling for getting the second problem resolved versus a huge pain. They ordered the part and they said that they would call us as soon as it arrives. So few days go by and I ended up having to call, I think, three times trying to get the status on it. They said that they would call me back and they did not. Then they suddenly discovered that it was there. All this was during record summer heat. I had to do a lot on my end to get the second appointment just to get it done because I could not use the A.C. till the second work was done. They did it. The nice thing is that they discounted the second repair. But when they scheduled it, my father-in-law took a day off and they did not show up. They gave us a two hour window and they did not show up, nor did they call. We had to call them three or four times and find out what was going on. Then by around late afternoon they said that they were on their way by then I did not wish them to come out. They had to re-schedule. They did come out a Saturday which they re-schedule overtime for but they agreed to do. They gave us $75 off for the inconvenience. I had to do too much work at my end to get the service done in the end. I felt that they were dragging their feet a little bit. Maybe it is the busy time of the year or the part must have got lost somewhere. But it did not measure up to the length I was put through. I did receive a significant discount. We did receive a quote from another company and I feel they were much better than what we could have ended up with. Price wise I have heard that you could really be scammed by A.C repair people. This is my first experience with this Company so it is difficult to compare. Quality wise nothing has broken down since. I understand that they have one year warranty on any work they do. So I felt pretty secure that if something else went wrong afterwards that we would be in good shape. I appreciated that. I am not sure if I would use them in the future.

It is always a pleasure to deal with whoever happens to show up at my appointment, either h/c or plumbing. They are always very knowledgeable and professional. The last two occasions I have used them they have 1) had to reschedule, or 2) showed up at the very end of the 4 hour window. But neither of these appointments were crucial -- just more routine items. They have come out to my house very quickly when I needed them to do so due to a water leak, etc.

We had originally scheduled for them to come by on Friday afternoon. I had taken the afternoon off from work on Friday to wait for them only to get a phone call at around 4pm saying that they got stuck on another job and wouldn't be able to make it. So we rescheduled for them to come on Saturday. The man came by on Saturday and told me that they could either replace parts or replace the whole system but with the amount of work to be done, he recommended that the entire system be replaced and would contact his sales person to come by and take a look so that they could provide me with a quote. The sales person came by later that afternoon and said that they could probably replace all the parts for about $2,500 or the entire system for about $4,000,but that he'd have to go back to the office and look up the cost of everything and get back to me with an actual official quote. He was supposed to call me on Monday and did not get back to me until Wednesday. By that time I haed already decided to go with another company.
Description of Work: I'm only writing that they "preformed services" because they charged me for giving me an estimate. They did not actually perform and work beyond that.

I have a yearly contract with them. They are cheaper than the ones I used to use earlier. They come out twice a year to service the furnace and air conditioner. When I was sick they used to keep calling me and used to send me notes to get my service done. I wasn't available at that time. Their plumbing service costs $85 a year. They charge us for plumbing, but they don't charge us for each trip like a lot of plumbers do.
