Responded quickly, finished the job in less than an hour and we now have water! We have used them before and found that they are excellent to work with and at a time when people were having a hard time getting someone to respond, they were there for us and Chris couldn't have been nicer.

You know my initial reaction with them was great when we redid our kitchen, everything went really great and now that I'm asking them to come back and do other things it's been dreadful and so I recommended them to my next door neighbor and they never came for her and they never called her to tell her why so that was really rude. She needed a pipe moved because she was putting in a new deck so it was like they would have had the job had they shown up. It was really annoying. So the guy when he finally came this time they stick it way too low on the house and they actually just turned it sideways instead of having it facing down so you actually attach a hose to it cause I think you maybe had to put a whole new line to make it hard but you don't want me to cut through the masonry and la la la and he was right I don't want to do that. But if you could just turn the head around that's awesome. On the back of the house they didn't have one of those new stickets that when you turn it off it kind of sucks all the water into the house. So I guess the cartridge on the back of the house was broken and he knew this was some sort of warranty issue and they had put it on for me so I was a little surprised they didn't call me and tell me that I needed it replaced and it was leaking so I asked them to come and replace it and so he has taking it apart and he hasn't come back. And this has been over three weeks and I have called them and I haven't heard from them. So I understand that the manufacturer didn't get the part you know I get that you could tell me right.

Ryan was prompt with coming over to look at my shower and give me an estimate. He helped me order the parts I needed - no complaints there. The issue was his responsiveness. The first day he had to reschedule and offered me a discount, OK. Then they came and they installed the wrong part (chrome versus stainless steel). He said the other part was late and that they would come back to correct it. A few weeks later I hadn't heard anything so I reached out again. No response. Another 2 weeks passed and he said the part came in (this was a month later now). I said great, when can you come? No response. I paid the company HALF of my bill with a note saying that I would be happy to pay the balance upon completion of the job. I never heard anything again. It wasn't worth continuing to reach out, so for now I will live with a chrome plate on a stainless steel handle. I continue to be amazed by bad customer service at service companies.

They showed up on time, were somewhat rude to my friend who let them into the area. Took approximately 30 minutes to cut the pipe, install a ball valve, and cap the whole thing off. Capped it off because taking the spigot out 'was too hard'. All in 30 minutes worth of effort $200. pretty outrageous.

Very nice guy, right down to business. In 20 minutes, he had my old disposal out and the new one in (same one I had before - Badger 5 1/2 hp). Total cost was to have been $260 but he reminded me that as a first time Angie's List customer, I got $25.00 off my bill - so $235.00 total. Would definitely call Dickenschrauf again.

Snaked the drain to 60 feet and said he encountered an obstruction.. He said he would have the office call me to arrange and appointment to inspect the drain with a camera. No one has called us and I received a bill at the end of the month for $ 195.00 which seemed pretty expensive, since the service provider was here for 22 minutes from the time he entered the house until he was back in his truck. I am disappointed that the follow-up call was not made and that the charge was that high. We are in the process of having both a bathroom and the kitchen remodeled and had hoped to find a connection to a good Wauwatosa plumber, but we clearly did not luck out here. Also, we did not get the promised Angie's list discount (told the person on the phone that we got the name on the list) or the senior citi zen discount, although I am 78 and my husband is 81-I think we qualified!!

I apologize for the missed communication in regards to the job. I will send out a check for the senior discount that should of been applied. As far as the rates go we have set pricing for drain cleaning I understand that yours went fast but if we would of been there two hours the price would of been the same.

I think I dealt with four different guys at different times, but all of them were nice and easy to deal with. Everything turned out great. I actually called them back out a few months later to fix a leaky pipe in my basement as well, and that went really well also, so to answer the question, "Would you hire them again? - Yes."
Description of Work: Helped with an attic conversion. I added a full bathroom in an empty attic that had a stack and hot and cold pipes already there. They did all the rough in of the pipes, poured a shower base for a walk in tile shower, and came back to do all the install and finishing work.

Have had repeated problem with this line and have had house lines snaked in the past. This time I had the main line (big 4 inch) line cleaned. 1 week later, the same problem began. I called the plumber back and they said it must be some improper plumbing that I had done by a remodeler and I should call someone who does plumbing along with drain cleaning. I went to Angie's List and called Dickenschrauf and they came out and cleaned the line again. Suggested two things. Because it is quite a long sewer line at almost 90 feet to the septic tank and the new toilet installed is 2-stage that uses less water for quick flush and more water if you hold down the flush lever, perhaps not enough water is being flushed most of the time. Secondly, if this occurs again, I should strongly think about having them look at the line with a camera to make sure there is no break or shifting of the long line that creates a blockage. I appreciate the quick response and the long term advice to help me in the future.

He saved himself the trip and saved me a lot of money. On the phone he asked me to check the circuit breaker which I had done and was OK. He then made a couple more suggestions and finally told me to locate the red button on the bottom of the disposal and push it which we did and VOILA it was working again. Many thanks Ryan - even my 13 year old grandson commented later in the day that what you did was awesome!!!

We picked out a toilet brand/design that we wanted. Ryan was on time and quickly pulled out the old toilet and replaced it with the new toilet. We have used this company in the past for sump pump replacement, iron filter replacement, pressure tank replacement, and water softener replacement. We always have excellent service from this company.
