Description of Work: The first plumbing company I have developed trust in for fairness. They have worked on my home twice and both times service has been excellent. I am a single mom, so I have told all of the girls at my office about Foster. I did not think companies like this existed anymore. Fair to women customers. Go Foster

Description of Work: My only complaint is that I think the price for services was inflated to make up for the Angie's List deal. The service performed was simply to snake out the tub drain. The young man used a motorized snake, went down twice, and was there for probably 20 min. The Angie's deal for $39 included $100 towards the work to be done. I figured $100 would cover snaking a drain, so I was quite surprised when he presented me with a bill for $207 (minus the $100 credit) resulting in my paying $107. I think my own plumber probably wouldn't have charged any more than $146, which is what my "deal" cost me. My fault for not asking first, but it wouldn't have made much difference.

Response from FOSTER PLUMBING & HEATING, INC.
Dear Member, Thank you for taking the time to review our services. I am glad we were able to clear your clog. As far as the pricing goes, we only have one price book and there are not up charges or increased costs for the deal. The drain cleaning machine is expensive to purchase and maintain and you were truly given a credit of $100 towards the actual retail price. Thank you again for your feed back. Regards, Jeff Foster
