Outstanding! The night before the service, we had heavy, flooding rainstorms in the area, so plumbers were working overtime. The plumber they sent us (Brian) had been up all night long working. That didn't stop him from doing a great job for us! He gave us some tips on some of our quirky plumbing and worked quickly as well. We always have excellent service from Gene Wagner Plumbing.
Description of Work: Replaced a toilet (they provided the toilet, seals and so forth), fixed a leaking pipe under the bathroom sink and a shower problem.

Good overall experience. I contacted four plumbing companies for an appointment the following day (due to the urgency of the need), and Gene Wagner was the only plumber that could meet this requirement. Gary knew what he was doing and performed the work well, advising me on how the drain system works for my house. I was pleased with the work and felt the pricing was very fair.
Description of Work: One second floor bathtub drain was plugged and would not drain any water. Gary of Gene Wagner arrived on site at the appointed time, with the correct equipment, and unplugged the drain, finding an obstruction in the pipe. At my request, he also snaked a sink drain that was draining slowly. The work was completed within 1.5 hours and he cleaned up when he was done.

Outstanding response to a much needed service; I called Wagner Plumbing at 8:00am and they had a plumber here at 8:30am. Job was completed at 9:25am. I've used them in the past and will continue to do so with any future plumbing needs.
Description of Work: Unplugged sewer obstruction out to main.

The plumber was on time, had a good sense of humor. Did the job in a short amount of time, let me know of some long term issues with plumbing, found my disposal in great condition.
Description of Work: Kitchen sink was stopped up and I thought the disposal might be to blame.

Dave arrived on time and got right down to business. He offered several ideas for fixing problems, including a lowest-cost option. Everything was finished in 2.75 hours, including his travel time. He was polite and efficient. I will definitely call them again when I need a plumber.
Description of Work: Removed a gas valve and plugged the pipe, replaced a leaking valve on a water line, replaced frost-proof outdoor faucet, and replaced cartridge in dripping shower/tub faucet.

I've used this company a handful of times over the years and have never had a problem with their work or professionalism. The employees are always informative on what they are doing. They fully met all of my expectations. However, there was a missed opportunity to exceed my expectations: The employee didn't have the tool in his truck needed to fully tighten down a toilet tank to bowl installed by someone else. Since I'm only 6 blocks from their office, if he would have suggested running to get the tool to do this for me, I would have said yes, (yes to including this time on the job). Instead he explained what tool I needed and what to do. I didn't rate price because I don't know what other quality plumbers charge.
Description of Work: Snaked bathroom sink and bathtub and stationary tub drains. Corrected slow leak at bathroom sink fitting. Tightened and adjusted assembly of bathroom sink and toilet that had been installed by someone else.

PLUMBER WAS VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL, AND EXPLAINED WHAT HE WAS DOING DURING THE ENTIRE VISIT. IDENTIFIED THE VALVE PROBLEM RIGHT AWAY (WE'D BEEN PUZZLING OVER IT FOR DAYS) AND CHECKED TO SEE IF WE WANTED THE OLD PART OR THE MATERIALS (BOX, INSTRUCTIONS, ETC.) FOR THE NEW PIECE. THE MAJORITY OF THE COST WAS IN THE LABOR ON RESETTING THE BASEMENT TOILET, WHICH WAS NOT SET CORRECTLY ON AN UNEVEN FLOOR. THE ENTIRE VISIT TOOK ABOUT 90 MINUTES.

WE HAD USED THIS COMPANY BEFORE AND THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL, PROMPT, AND COMPLETE IN THE WORK THAT THEY PERFORMED. BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THEY DID EXACTLY WHAT THEY SAID THEY WOULD DO WHEN THEY SAID THEY WOULD DO IT. WHILE I MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIND SOMEONE A BIT CHEAPER, I FIND THAT FOR THE REASONS ABOVE, THEY ARE WORTH IT. I WOULD USE THEM AGAIN.
Description of Work: OUR SECOND JOB WITH GENE WAGNER PLUMBING. REPLACED A REPAIRED SOME COMPONENTS IN AN UPSTAIRS BATHROOM TOILET TO STOP ITS LEAKING AND THEREFORE CONTINUAL RUNNING. THE VARIOUS PARTS CAME TO $52 AND WITH 2 HOURS OF WORK, THE TOTAL WAS $248.

THIS WAS A COMPLICATED JOB. I WANTED TO BRING MY LAUNDRY ROOM UP TO SAFETY STANDARDS AS PER ''THIS OLD HOUSE!'' WAGNER'S RESPONDED IMMEDIATELY TO MY REQUEST FOR WORK & SENT A PLUMBER OUT ONE DAY LATER. HE REMOVED THE OLD WASHER & DRYER, CAPPED THE GAS LINE, CONNECTED THE NEW WASHER & DRYER, REPLACED THE WATER HOSES WITH FLEXIBLE STEEL, ADDED SAFETY VALVES TO THE WATER LINES, BUILT NON-FLEXIBLE DUCT-WORK TO THE OUTSIDE VENT, REINSTALLED & WATERPROOFED THE VENT CONNECTION, AND BUILT A LITTLE CEMENT ''RETAINING WALL'' AROUND THE OUTSIDE VENT (WHICH EXITS UP THROUGH A PATIO). HE NOTED THAT I NEEDED A DIFFERENT PLUG FOR THE DRYER (WHICH I KNEW) & CALLED AN ELECTRICIAN WHO WAS ABLE TO COME OVER WITHIN THE HOUR AND DO THE JOB. THE PLUMBER ALSO CHECKED FOR A LEAK IN THE KITCHEN SINK & GAVE ME ADVICE ON OTHER WORK I'M CONSIDERING IN THE FUTURE. A VERY POSITIVE EXPERIENCE AND I FEEL THAT MY LAUNDRY ROOM IS MUCH SAFER.

I HAD A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE WITH THEM ON THE WORK THAT THEY PERFORMED. FROM THE FIRST CALL-UP, THROUGH SCHEDULING THE WORK, TO THE COMPLETION OF THE WORK, THEY WERE PREDICTABLE, DEPENDABLE, AND PROFESSIONAL. WHEN I FIRST CONTACTED THEM AND SCHEDULED THEIR WORK, THE TOILET WAS NOT AN ISSUE, BUT AFTER JAY CAME AND COMPLETED THE OUTSIDE WORK, HE CAME UP TO LOOK IT OVER. HE HAD THE PARTS HE NEEDED OUT IN HIS VEHICLE AND HE MADE THE REPAIR ON THE SPOT. MY ONLY ISSUE IS THAT WE HAVE A SLIGHT LEAK IN THE TANK SYSTEM THAT CAUSES THE TANK FAUCET TO CONTINUE TO TRICKLE. I DOCKED THEM IN MY GRADING BECAUSE IT IS SOMETHING THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT RIGHT AWAY, BUT IN FAIRNESS, I HAVE NOT YET CALLED THEM TO GET THEM BACK TO FIX IT.
