I attempted to perform a DIY; trying to remove the cartridge, that would not budge, I broke the plastic flange. I wanted to match it at Home Depot but could not get it out. I researched the plumber list on Angie's at 1 PM Friday and called the Benjamin Franklin franchise and talked to the owner, Mike. He told me that he was on call and had given the other guys the time off on Memorial Day weekend to be with their families. He said he could be out by the next day between 12 & 2PM.
He called on Saturday at 11 AM and said he could be at the house right then, I told him I was in the middle of an errand and asked if we could meet at 11:30 & he agreed. Mike arrived at 11:30 and went to work. He had the part in his truck. There were a few simple issues with the cartridge alignment and being overlubed out of the box. Mike was up to the task & completed the work patiently & with purpose.
Price included a 15% Angie's list coupon discount, but was up graded to a deduction of the service/travel charge of $49 for total charge of $138 covering the repair fee.
"Thanks for the review [member name removed]!"
The work was neatly done, as it required that he dig around the pipe to gain full access, he put everything back where it was originally and was very thorough in measuring the water pressure afterwards at all points in the house.
We are very happy with the results and would use Benjamin Franklin again in a heart beat. The quality of the work and the person doing the work was totally top notch.
The only con is the price. I used the coupon and it was applied before the $49 travel fee. This fee is exorbitant. I think this should be told to you on the phone when you make the request for service. I had told the phone person I wasn't in a hurry and this was a weekday (not an emergency weekend job). This was not EVER mentioned until I was handed the service contract to sign...by then, you're stuck.
I might refer this company but would definitely mention the price.

"Thank you very much for the kind comments! We are always upfront and honest with our customers and give complete pricing prior to any work being performed. Our trucks are fully stocked, even with water heaters, so our overhead is slightly higher than smaller companies but we always try to provide a service that justifies a slightly higher ticket. We understand that our customers time is priceless!"
"Thank you for the review. We do understand that our prices are a little higher than some smaller plumbing companies but always try to provide a service that justifies the cost. When you consider that our technicians are constantly training and attending trade schools, our phones are answered live 24 hours everyday, our trucks are fully stocked and each employee is background tested and drug free you can understand the additional overhead. We feel the professional service and piece of mind in knowing the person you invite into your home is a true professional you can trust is worth it. We also understand your time in priceless! Michael Jones. Owner"
"Thank you very much for the kind review."

Anything from getting a heavy box down from the attic to taking the trash cans down to the curb! Once again, thank you!"
"Thank you Member for the kind review! Advertising get us a customer but we know offering exceptional service and being on time will allow us the honor of keeping your business! Michael Jones. Owner"
