"This company was FANTASTIC. Javier completely understood the problem and didn't waste my time or money. Never tried to upsell like one of the past plumbers tried to pull with me. This was my third plumbing company before going through HomeAdvisor for Alliance United. You all saved me $3,500 in unnecessary work!!! Thank you!!!"

"My project ended up not being a leak caused by the toilet but rather a leak from my foundation.The gentleman from Diplomat checked around the outside perimeter of my house and informed me of the situation. This man is a Saint ,coming out yesterday when I expressed I had 2" of standing water in a bathroom, in one of the "worst rain storms in the last 10 years in my area". I offered to pay him for his trouble and apologized for thinking the trouble was a Leaky" toilet but he refused any compensation just saying "remember us if you ever need a plumber in future""

"I was overall unimpressed with Payless but they did have some redeeming qualities, though it took a bit of work to get there.
When I first called, I was quoted a price over the phone of just under $1000 for the base cost of the until + installation, but was told that I should allow for a couple hundred dollars cushion for all the unforeseen circumstances of my particular home, which I was totally fine with.
The technician arrived on Saturday, Jan 9 and saw my setup.  He noted that he would have to replace the unit itself, the connections as there was corrosion, install an expansion tank so it would be up to code, etc.  When all was said and done, the price was nearly double at over $1800 for a complete install.  I know they work on commission, but I definitely felt like this was a bit of a bait and switch scenario.
This was much more than I expected to pay, especially based off the (under)bid I got on the phone.  However, when you haven't had hot water for a couple of days with small children int house, you don't have the time and convenience to comparison shop, so I opted to move forward since Payless had gotten decent reviews on Angies List.
When the work was done, I examined it and it looked okay and we did have hot water, but I did question the way he set up the connections.  And there was something else that seemed off, but not being a plumber, I couldn't put my finger on it.
The next day I called in a friend who is a plumber to take a look and within a second he saw the issue.  Even though my entire house was copper piping, the tech used galvanized pipe on the install.  
Considering how much money I had spent, I was upset that I got a technician who decides to maximize his profit by installing galvanized piping, knowing that it corrodes over time and really should only be used for gas.  
When I called the company to complain, I spoke with a person who said the manager would call me on Monday.  After not hearing from anyone, I called back myself and was directed to Chris who was less than friendly.  He told me that galvanized was up-to-code and I should have requested brass or copper fittings if that's what I wanted.  I felt like that was an unprofessional answer, as I was not a plumber and was paying for their expertise in this area.  And when I complained about the gap in price from the phone call to install, I was told "Well, you signed the contract.  Maybe next time read it before you sign." which was infuriating and unprofessional to say the least.
He finally agreed to swap out the fittings for me but said the same technician had to come back and do it.  I scheduled my appt for the next Saturday morning.
By that Saturday afternoon, he had still not shown up.  I called throughout the day to get a status and on this last call was told "He hasn't shown up for work today and we can't get a hold of him so we'll have to reschedule."
I had been home ALL DAY waiting for this tech, so I explained that wouldn't be acceptable as I just rearranged my entire Saturday and had I not been persistent in calling,  likely wouldn't have heard from anyone.  They called me back and told me another tech would come by today.
That tech came by and was clearly more experienced and knew what he was doing much more than the first tech.  He was pretty taken back that the other tech had used galvanized and not only swapped out the fittings, but redid the setup to be much cleaner.
So at the end of the day, I got a great heater and correct installation, but it took some time, effort and persistence to get there.  Normally, I would have been much more easy affable about the situation, but the way Chris spoke to me on a couple of occasions really made me feel unvalued as a customer, especially when trying to right a wrong that should have never been the case.

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

A good option for opening up and cleaning a sink drain is to use a ¼ cup of baking soda and 1 cup of white vinegar, along with a rubber stopper to cover the drain while those materials work their magic. After about 15 minutes, you can flush the drain with hot water. In many cases, these materials can scrub out minor clogs and get the drain working properly again. If the issue persists, call in a plumber near you to get the problem permanently fixed.

Depending on the issue, you have a good shot at fixing a leaking sink yourself. If you have some plumbing experience or are comfortable with DIY jobs, you can clean the P trap, tighten nuts, replace washers, and replace shut-off valve stems on your own. For more complicated jobs, such as repairing a garbage disposal, calling a pro may be the way to go.

It’s possible to snake minor drain clogs yourself, provided they sit within a foot or two of the drain itself, but it’s usually best to hire a professional plumber regardless. Even experienced DIYers have a high chance of accidentally pushing the clog further into the drain using a drain snake or another tool, so hiring a plumber is the ideal course of action. A professional plumber can use camera equipment to locate and identify the clog, and remove the entire blockage to fix your issue permanently.

Recaulk your toilet at least every five years. If you feel like your toilet is getting wobbly before that, it still might be time for a new caulking. Never directly place new caulk over existing caulk because that doesn’t produce lasting results. Also, caulking over existing moldy caulk does not kill out the mold by suffocating it, so if you have mold, be sure to get rid of it before recaulking.

A journeyman plumber is a licensed plumber with a state-issued permit who installs and repairs piping for water and heating systems under the supervision of a master plumber. Also known as a plumbing contractor, a master plumber is considered the highest level in this profession. In addition to passing all state-level requirements, master plumbers have several years of experience. They are allowed to lead teams, create blueprints, and design and install plumbing systems.
