Our kitchen sink was dripping and he said it was the shape of the faucet that made it drip and we could replace it if we wanted to. We did not want to replace it as we just moved in and don't have a lot of money, it still drips even with the spiget off. I find it hard to believe all faucets with this shape drip. The pipe to connect our washing machine to was leaking. He checked for clogs in the line, and said there were none, but after using the washing machine a few times we noticed it is leaking yet. When we called the company to ask whether we would be charged another service call fee, we were told that depended on the technician and whether the washing machine leak was related to the work they had performed. The toilet was not working properly and he did something to it and then not two weeks later something went wrong with it and my husband ended up fixing it. So, for our $540 we have a faucet that still drips, a washing machine that leaks, and my husband fixed the toilet himself. UPDATE: After this review was posted Wisler Plumbing contacted us. They asked for an opportunity to come out and finish the job. we told him that we contracted someone else to come out and fix the washing machine leaking issue and that the toilet issue was already fixed. He then offered a refund since we weren't satisfied with their services. I will give them a lot of credit for contacting us promptly, offering to finish the job, and offering a refund since they didn't fix our issues. We accepted their offer of a refund and told him that there were no hard feelings and because of their responsiveness we would still consider using their services in the future should the need arise.
Description of Work: We had a dripping sink, a leaky washing machine and a toilet that kept running.

I had bubbling in the toilet beside the laundry room when the washer drained. They charge a $69 fee to show up for any service call. This is on top of the cost for any work done. He was prompt, called ahead to advise of his arrival. He listened to my description, checked the toilets while draining the washing machine then went into the crawl space to and visually inspected the drain line. Of course, there was no bubbling while he was there. He provided 3 options, 2 of which included selling me additional services unrelated to the reason for my call. The 3rd option was a camera inspection of the line to determine if there was a blockage or a sag in the drain line. He did the camera inspection all the way to the septic tank and no blockage was found. We drained water and no standing water or blow back was observed. Basically, no idea why I had my problem, nothing to fix. He verified the plumbing was done correctly and properly vented. While looking at the toilets, he noticed that the tank bolts were rusting. He did a free water analysis which showed a ph of 5. He provided documentation that I can use with the water provider. He also briefly described additional help that I could get should I want to treat the water. Overall it was a professional experience. I gave them a B rating because of the price and use of the service call as a sales call.

He fixed all the drains and he left the house cleaner then he come into. I will use wilser every time I have the chance too. I know there will be more to fix when I finish my basement next year. Thank you again for a job well done and will be passing on to my firends.
Description of Work: Joey came into the home and asked me where I had the trouble. I showed him the two places I needed to be done and he came back in about ten minutes with a quote. I had three options that I was able to choose from and I went with the second that would fix everything in my Kitchen and bathroom.

Wisler did a superb job and we would highly recommend them! They tore our an existing fiberglass tub/shower enclosure, and then installed a SBA MAXX 6032 sunken/jetted tub with a heater, tiled around the tub, installed fixtures like towel hooks, grab bars, shelving, and a Panasonic vent/light/fan
Description of Work: Bathroom remodel, we're really happy with Wisler and would definitely use them again!!!! We had a couple small tweaks needed after the job was done, but Wisler was responsive to the feedback and fixed the minor issues.

We had 2 visits - estimator was late both times. The first time over an hour late and didn't let us know he was running behind until after we had waited half an hour. Was 30 minutes late on second visit. When he did show up he was very considerate of our home, put on paper slippers to cover his shoes to keep from soiling the flooring.Was very professional and seemed very knowledgeable. His design plan was very good but not exactly what we wanted and he didn't seem inclined to make any changes. Perhaps he was right in what he said about our ideas but he didn't convince us that his design was the best way to go. His cost estimate was very reasonable and gave an extensive timetable or schedule of how the remodel would go. We were impressed with this company and their reputation. We would have gone with them had we not found another contractor more open to our ideas.

The technician came out and was extremely professional and courteous. I have 2 hot water heaters on a tandem system. One was approx 10 years old, the other 8. We did not have much hot water as one was completely burned out. John tested everything and gave me 3 options to repair, unfortunately all the options were extremely out of line with what other plumbers charge for the same work. The quote to replace both 50 gallon heaters was 46% higher than other quotes received. The option to replace one heater and repair 2 elements was 42% higher than other quotes, and the option to just repair both with thermostats and elements was 51% higher than other quotes. The quotes included a "membership" in their diamond club, which gives you priority scheduling and 25% off your next services, however, with the 46% higher costs this really is not a bargain. As I said, the technician was great, and I fee sorry for him trying to sell his companies product at the cost he has to charge, and seriously do not understand how this company stays in business with this type of pricing practice.
Description of Work: Came out and ended up only giving estimate because their price was way out of line with industry standards

Joe hill, the tech, came and replaced the emergency shut off valve to the toilet. He then also replaced the Toilet! They really do have something like 89% of fixtures, etc. on their trucks as their website says. Both he and Schuyler (the receptionist who answered the phone were friendly, and professional. The appt. was supposed to be for next Mon. afternoon unless I could be worked in. It was only about 45 min later that Schuyler called back and said that they could come between 12PM and 1PM today! Joe was done by 2:30! This was while he had an audience of FIVE greyhounds-one of which who kept trying to swipe his tools when he wasn't using them! I was very impressed the warrantied service (1 yr for just replacing parts, 3 yrs for installing the new toilet) and would recommend them to other folks. I will also call them for anymore of my plumbing needs.
Description of Work: Joe Hill, the tech, came and replaced the emergency valve on my toilet as well as replacing the toilet! I was surprised because these guys say they carry something like 89% of the things needed to fix whatever needs fixing. They really do! Joe had the toilet and all the other things needed on his truck from his inventory! Joe and the lady (Schuyler) were both very professional. They set up my appt. for next Mon., but was able to come right out just after 12:00 PM.

as protected ) When I called on 6/19 at 8 am the the lady answering the phone was extremely polite and very efficient. It initially looked like the appointment would be during the following week. Shortly after our conversation ended she called back saying there was a cancellation and a Tech. was available within the next 45 mins. We proceeded with the service appointment. The service Tech. (Mason) arrived as scheduled. Introduced himself, put on his shoe covers, checked the installation site and provided a cost estimate with additional information about "The Diamond Club" which I consider a very good investment. The price was less than I expected. Mason made sure the interior of my home was protected and the work proceeded in skilled and efficient manner. At completion Mason made sure the work area was clean, clearly explained in detail "The Diamond Club" and the entire invoice for all charges including the $50 discount because we are members of Angies List. We highly recommend Wisler Plumbing. Mason and all the employees at Wisler Plumbing are to be commended for their professionalism.

It's all about the customer. They answer the phone with "how can I make you smile today". I wanted to get an estimate, but they were booked several days out (which is a good sign). Unfortunately, the issue could not wait so I used a different company. If I need plumbing service in the future, I will definitely call for an estimate.
Description of Work: I didn't end up using this provider, only because it was an immediate plumbing issue and they did not have a technician available for next-day service.

Hard to say enough good about the Wisler team. They were always on time and did work as well or better than we expected (and we are very picky). Brian Wisler continually went above and beyond expectations offering good advice on design and materials and keeping a good eye on the details of the project. On the very rare occasion when we saw something we didn't like, they were on site immediately to correct to our satisfaction. Also repaired a poorly installed tile and shower job in another bathroom that was done incorrectly by another contractor. We welcome the Wisler team to put pictures of our bath on this site to brag about their outstanding work!
Description of Work: Extensive master bathroom remodel including walk-in shower, Jacuzzi tub, makeup vanity, double sink and over 20' of cabinets (very large bathroom). Also included all tile work on floor, wainscot and ceiling in the shower.

It was very reasonable. The plumber that came out told us what it was going to cost before he went out and got the parts and he had everything in his truck so he fixed it right away. He was great and cleaned up after himself. We chose them because my daughter recommended them and my son in law’s whole family uses them. They have this great plan that you can sign up, it is their home protection plan and it is really inexpensive. It gives you discounts every time they come and they will come maybe three times, after business hours or on the weekends and you don’t get charged for the extra time, but they are just great. My daughter and her husband has been using them for years, in fact, they were just over at their house on the weekend to fix one thing, and ended up staying back to fix three things and didn’t charge them for the overtime. They are super nice people. They came one time right after we moved into the house and we had a deposit in one of our vacuum showers, someone had taken it out and put it on backwards so when we turned to the red, for hot water, we got cold water and the plumber that came said he could do it but he would have to charge us to fix it. It was a simple thing, so he asked my husband if he was handy and he was, so the plumber told him how to correct it. It was nice of him that he said we didn’t have to pay him for something we could do ourselves. My daughter had them over a month ago to fix the same thing in her house because she forgot to turn the faucet off, it had frozen, but the safety valve they had kept the water from flooding her house, so the plumber gave her a reminder sticker to put on the pipe.
Description of Work: We use Wisler Plumbing for plumbing services. Our house had been vacant for few years and whoever was here before hadn’t turned off the outside faucet, it didn’t leak but then when we turned back on, evidentially the pipe had frozen over the winter so they came and fixed that.

It was just a sales pitch for other products. I'm assuming they would have eventually gotten around to what I called them for but their first priority was to sell me something. It would have been one thing to do the work then before leaving mention what they were selling. Update: The owner sent me a check for $200 for my inconvenience (taking a 1/2 day off from work) and apologized. That at least tells me the owner has some integrity. I'm not sure if I'm going to accept it or not but felt that I should increase their grade to at a D. I do hope that they have learned that it would be better to impress with their service first before trying to sell something like a service contract.
Description of Work: contacted this company based on reviews here. Sent an email detailing problem and someone called me and discussed my issues on the phone. Stated they could help. He was very professional and complete in his information. Was very impressed. Made an appointment. The plumber showed up at the appointed time. I took him to the back yard (issue was an outside drain). He then asked me if I had some type of plumbing warranty or something on the home (I don't remember specific wording). I told him no. He said I'd like to walk through your home and check all of your plumbing today. I told him no, I didn't want that the problem was the outside drain. He then took out a booklet and said I'd like to tell you about a program we have....I interrupted and told him I wasn't interested. I told him I invited them to my home to fix a specific problem and was not going to be sold anything extra. That wasn't the purpose of the call.

Response from Wisler Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, & Electric
I have tried to contact this client and respond to an email to resolve this issue however have not heard anything. As our company has a 100% satisfaction guarantee and she has not paid us anything. I have sent a check of 200.00 to compensate for the client taking a 1/2 day off work to meet our tech. We do ask if some one has a warranty plan on there plumbing due to many home insurance/warranty companies that do have plans on homes. We do try to check the entire plumbing system while we are there only to benefit the client and make sure that the problem at hand is not influenced by other issues.

This is the 2nd time I have had a really bad experience with this company and I would highly recommend avoid them at all cost. They tell you there a service charge for the visit as expected but they do not tell you it going to be $69.00. In my opinion $69.00 to tell me my pipe is crack and that why it leaking is excessive. Thank you I already knew that that's why I called you out. All I needed was for them to replace the a pipe that was not in the wall and the faucet that it lead to outside the house the they wanted $459.40,$363.40 or 268.00 to do it! So what you are telling me is that you can do it right for $459.40 or take take you chances and do it on the "cheep" for $268.00 your call. Either way you choose to have them do it they only warranty there work for a year. Way to have faith in the quality of your install and workmanship. On top of they offered me the privilege of being a member of there "diamond club" I don't wan to be part of a customer loyalty program for my plumber I just you just do it right the 1st time and not to come back. The irony of this whole thing is there marketing slogan "we are the good guy your friends told you about" Oh I am telling alright.

Response from Wisler Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, & Electric
As a response to this review I would like to apologize to[member name removed] for any failure on our part to create a satisfied customer. It is our intentions to have practices that keep our client’s best interest in mind. The first “bad experience” was we received a call 4 years after we put a toilet in that had a three year warranty on it. [member name removed] stated that the toilet that we put in was low quality and he had trouble with the toilet from day one however failed to call us then. I completely agreed that a toilet should last more than 4 years. I spoke to [member name removed] and we agreed to come out and install a brand new toilet (a different brand at his request) at half the standard cost (190.00). We did so and to my knowledge had created satisfaction. I did listen to the recorded call that his wife made to book the call with our company and we clearly communicated that the service fee would be 69.00 to her. This fee covers the cost we occur to bring a very professional well trained technician in a well-stocked truck to a home. We then diagnose the problem and give a price before any work is done. We gave the client options of replacing the hose faucet with a “freeze proof faucet” or a “frost free” faucet. In the first two options our Diamond Club was included. The 3rd option did not have it included and any client is free to choose or suggest other options. We always give a warranty on any work done not to set the time that it will last, but to prevent the client from being at risk from defects after the install. We didn’t do the repair at this house and the technician that was there recorded upon leaving that [member name removed] received a business call and was distracted when we were trying to communicate the options for repair. I apologize for the failure that our company had in our communication to the client. I have tried to contact [member name removed] to resolve this issue, however my message has not been returned.

They showed up on time, the service man was very professional, had a lot of experience, and more importantly for me, as a first time homeowner, took the time to patiently explain and answer all of my questions, some of which had to do nothing with the work performed but about the general mechanical systems in the home. He was at the home from about 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. completing the work. I thought the price was somewhat high, but as I was new to the area and was moving into the home in two days, I didn't have time to shop the price around. I relied on the rating from Angie's List that Wisler would be one of the better companies and found that to be true. I would rather pay more for better service than less for mediocre service.
Description of Work: They replaced three toilets, a garbage disposal and installed two backflow valves on the outside faucets.

Made a service request online and received a call to schedule a service appointment the next day. Explained that my hot water heater was working erratically (water too hot, overtemp monitor would trip) for the service call two tech's arrived performed an evaluation/assessment and presented costs including repair or replace options. I chose replacement, new water heater was already on the truck along with all tools and parts. Installation went smoothly and old heater was carted off. Tech's were professional, knowledgable and courteous. They took care to ensure any mess was minimized to include tracking debris into my home. All in all a smooth process and I definitely recommend.

It went great -- Mason was on time - neat - clean and very informative.
Description of Work: I found Wisler Plumbing here on Angie's List and did not have one regret -- Mason was so nice - he explained what needed to be done, what cost to expect and everything. It was a pleasure having him in my home - I did schedule additional work that will be completed next month. I would refer them to anyone. My washing machine was not draining - Mason tried everything - but - unfortunately for me, I live in an older home and the pipes have rusted --so need to replace them. I totally trust this company - and that says alot for me. It was just nice -- I just want to say a big thank you to Mason and the company.
