My garbage disposal unit was leaking and the second drain was running slowly, so I snagged this offer.
The company was quick and courteous, and the young man who showed up at my door was friendly and professional.
HOWEVER...
When he took a look at the job, he explained that the company did not charge by the hour, but by the job, and--after my $99 credit--the cost was going to be $497. And that was if I purchased the new garbage disposal unit. And because I have galvanized pipe, he told me that was just the beginning; he was likely to find more work that would have to be done once he opened it up.
So, $600 for a leaky garbage disposal unit and likely more after that. After my sink would have been opened up and I would not be able to stop the additional charges. Oh, and the garbage disposal in question is one of those that has a "snap-in" installation so that actual replacement can be done in minutes by the average home owner.
I used to maintain machinery (computers, cash registers, etc), and I know that the skills required to do that work need to be honed over time, and that should be rewarded.
Having said that, $600 for what is--for an expert--approximately 90 minutes of labor, is excessive. Because, remember, that was AFTER $99 credit. Which actually should have been $200 credit.
I don't know whether I will get the $99 back; I hope I do.
"I am sorry you had this experience. We offer the highest quality with technicians with 10 to 15 years of experience. We also off 100% satisfaction guarantees on all of our products and service. We are a little more expensive, but our warranties are longer and our products and materials are the best. Thank you for your comments. Every suggestion we take seriously and use them to make us better at what we do."
The service went fine. They were really expensive though - charging double what other plumbers charge. The plumber used was very helpful. However, he determined I needed a new sewer line and called in a consultant/sales guy to provide a quote. This took the better part of the day to get the consultant to my house. The consultant spent a lot of time with me and I loved his advice. But he went into high pressure mode. Wanted the job to begin immediately since they had an opening in the calendar. The quote was very expensive. I ended up being pressured into signing for the work. Had second thoughts and canceled the next day. The consultant still tried to convince me I needed a new sewer line.
I called another plumber in to get a second opinion. They felt I did not need a replacement yet. I am now going to call a third plumber to break the tie.
The cost is something disturbed me a lot. The water heater replacement , 6 yr warranty and 2 minor works costed me $2100. Yesterday I saw homedepot doing free installation of water heater with 9 yr warranty for $481 only. so I think I paid through the roof.
I do not think minor work would have excceded $300. I just believed their prices.They are very very costly. I would definately use right Handyman to get such work done.
They gave good inputs on water pressure, usage of tankless water heater, maintaining drain pipes.
Initially the guy said he would do something about it for me in the same price, but later he said its lot of work.
Ask for Charles, he was professional, courteous and fast, especially considering the scope of the job. He was also very flexible working to my schedule. A small job quickly turned into a big job. I was aware of some sewer line cracks but not all till they opened up the walls and I saw the calcification and wetness in my blown-in insulation on the exterior walls. A sewer backup would have turned into a major problem. The quality of the work was amazing. He added clean out access points to improve future servicing and even cleaned up after a previous plumbing company who left discarded piping, plastic and other materials when I had the house replumbed about 5 years ago. My house was built in 1978. The cracks all occurred where the original contractor glued the various sewer sections together. It appears to be a reaction between the glue used and the plastic at that time. If your home is of similar age I recommend having Charles take a look for you.
