"Wow! Within seconds of submitting my request on HomeAdvisor, I received a call from Bill Metzger Plumbing offering assistance. That alone was amazing to experience, but then the representative said she could have a tech out within 30 mins. He actually showed up within even less than that! I really cannot believe they had someone available *at the ready* to come out and replace our busted hot water tank. Luis was super friendly, patient with all our first-timer questions, thorough in his explanations, super professional and really exceeded our expectations! Thank you, Luis and Bill Metzger Plumbing! A++ job!"

"The firm ran into scheduling difficulty and was unable to make it at the original appointment time, but they gave fair warning and we agreed to an appointment the next day with no hard feelings.  The tech arrived on time for the second appointment, was personable and solicitous (he put on shoe coverings), and I proceeded to ask him his opinion regarding leaky faucets in the bathroom. His suggestion was that the calcification in the existing faucets and their overall condition made replacement a far better option than repair, and he quoted me a very reasonable per sink labor cost, with the assumption that I obtain some new faucets.  This is a minor setback, but I'd willingly employ this firm for that work, when my wife and daughter (the design team) can select some hardware for that bathroom.
The larger issue, and the reason I wound up requesting a refund of the Big Deal of 50 dollars for 100 dollars worth of plumbing labor, is that I still have not received any written estimates from the home office for the water heater repair work, and that's something I had hoped to get done as soon as possible, so there's every chance that I will be shopping that job around.
The tech did exactly what anybody in his position would do: he made a pitch for a tankless water heating system to replace our older tank (probably not a bad idea), and he also pitched a water purification system (Halo 5) to deal with the very obvious hard water we have here.  My research on the Halo 5 has not suggested that it's truly capable of the level of softening achieved by salt systems, but we don't want a salt system for any number of reasons, so the Halo 5 may actually wind up being an attractive option.  It's not attractive enough to commit to at this point, however, and the lack of a written estimate precludes any decision-making I might wish to employ.

Update: I never noticed the provider response to my review--I guess I was a bit impatient about getting an estimate in writing so that I could try to get the problems resolved before I left town, and for whatever reason your tech left me with the impression that an estimate was immediately forthcoming.  You blame me, I'll blame him, and it really doesn't matter since Summer sent the estimate the day after this review was posted, and I accepted the proposal.

I'm not going to pretend that every single thing was rosy and delightful--the Halo 5 system needs to regenerate and dump gallons of water out into a planter every 7-11 days, and the tankless heater's ventilation takes the form of a pretty noticeable PVC arrangement on our HOA-monitored roof.  Jesse and his crew did everything possible to make these issues painless, however (painted vent PVC to less conspicuous color and routed Halo backwash away from house), and I give them high marks for minimizing impacts with good humor and patience.  

The brand new Navien heater was a dud--it had a faulty check valve, and that was preventing the kitchen (only the damned kitchen) from getting hot water.  Debugging this unfortunate scenario took many hours, and it was not until the day after the tank got installed that Jesse was able to come out and prove to everybody's satisfaction that the manufacturer's suggested work-around was neither necessary nor correct.  When the manufacturer wanted to replace the valve, Jesse insisted on replacing the entire unit.  This goes beyond excellent service, by my standards, and I would happily hire these guys again.  I don't know what the rules are on Angie's List for updating grades and such on a review, and I don't much care--I'm just going to go change them."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

A cistern works by collecting rainwater from your gutters and downspouts and storing it in a holding tank. The holding tank can be installed above or below ground, and the size will depend on your household needs. The stored water can then be used for household tasks, watering your garden, and even for drinking water.

To prevent septic tank problems, save on repair costs, and keep your home running smoothly, it's essential to perform regular maintenance. Have your septic system inspected by a professional every one to three years, or annually if possible, to spot potential issues before they develop. You should also have your tank pumped every three to five years, or more frequently if recommended by a professional based on your household's usage. Additionally, be mindful of what goes into your system. Avoid flushing items like paper towels, wet wipes, and feminine hygiene products. Do not dispose of other inappropriate substances, and try to avoid excessive water usage at a single time.

They can if they’re not installed correctly or if the caps or covers were dislodged by a lawn mower or other yard equipment. This is why it pays to hire a reputable septic tank company that’s experienced in septic tank installation and maintenance. You should also check caps and covers often to see that they’re in place and take measures to tighten or secure them, provided it is safe to do so.

There are three layers of wastewater in a septic tank: scum (solid waste that floats to the top of the wastewater), liquid (the relatively clean liquid wastewater in between the two other layers), and sludge (solid waste that falls to the bottom of the wastewater). The buildup of sludge is one of the main reasons septic tanks need to be pumped. If the tank is more than 1/3 of the way full with a combination of sludge and scum, it’s time to call a pro for pumping.

Septic tank odors can happen because of a few different issues with your septic system, such as a full tank, clogged drains, or blocked venting systems. Not only is a smelly septic tank pretty unpleasant, but it can also pose a potential hazard to yourself and your home. Toxic fumes could be hanging around, or untreated wastewater could be harming the environment.
