I had another plumber out that said I needed to spend $980 so I called RK Knight and they came out, went up on the roof, and fixed the simple problem. It was two fellows and they cleaned out some paper that was stuck. They were on time, professional, and courteous; it was a positive experience. For the quote they gave me to install a sink, they quoted me about four times higher than I was able to get it done for. The price sounded ridiculously high. Because of that bad bid that I got, I won't use them again. I used to use them quite a bit but then I started getting really high bids from them.

Plumbing, Drain Cleaning
I called to get a drain cleaned. Costs were described over the phone and on arrival at the house. Plumber worked efficiently, cleaned up his work, and made recommendations for the future. There is an inspection charge that is charges in addition to the repair, so it was a little pricey, but professional.

The experience was good. Our kitchen sink was backing up so he snaked it and unclogged it. The service fee was $39 to come out and look at it. Then he charged $149 for the job. My husband handled most of the transaction but it was good. He had a price list sheet where the service was put under categories. Every category was priced the same. I have not had much plumbing done lately but I thought it was a little pricey. We wanted him to look at something in our backyard. He told us that it would cost us an additional $200. So we decided not to get that done. I can?t comment on the price because I don?t have anything to compare it with. I don?t know what other plumbers will charge. I thought that the $39 service fee would be applied to the whole estimate. He did not say that over the phone. The quality was good. The work is done and the sink is still working. My husband was happy with the responsiveness. He gave a time window between 2 to 4 and he was here at 2.15. In future, I would do some comparative shopping first; call different plumbers and see what they charge. Plumbers are charging in different ways. Some of them have price lists and some of them charge by the hour. It is possible that I might use him again.

"True, we are not the cheapest around, but we are definitely not the most expensive. All of our technicians are professionally trained, background checked and continually drug tested. You can see this patch proudly displayed on our techs uniforms. Our techs attend training 3 times a week to keep up to date on products and plumbing code. We also carry thousands of parts on our truck so that all jobs, unless they are unusual, are able to be completed right then and there. Here at R.K. Knight Plumbing we accept nothing less than excellence. This allows our clients to have that peace of mind that their homes and families are in good hands and that the job completed was done right."

Arrived in a timely manner. Although rather young, the repairman was able to diagnose the problem quickly and replace the broken part in our water heater without much trouble. He comported himself professionally and we were pleased with the experience. Total time was 20 minutes.

They didn't even blink at repairing the old guest house, repairing the two leaks promptly and without a problem, with the kitchen sink repaired as well. The main house's hot water tank was repaired, as well as the sink faucet leak, and the two stopped up sinks. We have finally found honest plumbers who can repair anything, even very old, fragile pipes. They were courteous, patient and knew all there was to know about plumbing. We are thrilled.

The plumbers were right on time and professional. They measured the new dishwasher and existing space to see what would need to be done. They (there were 2 of them) gave me an estimate for the plumbing work and the dishwasher installation separately. I've used this plumber for about 12 years now and feel comfortable with them. I thought the estimate for the plumbing work was fair, but the estimate for the dishwasher installation was more than I expected.

He is knowledgeable with older plumbing. They have done multiple jobs for me over the years, but they last job I called them for, they gave me a quote and stuck to the quote they gave, though the work ended up being a lot more work than they planned on. The customer service is really good. I've never had a rude plumber. They will give you a quote for what time they will come and they will be there within a two hour time frame. They have always been patient and informative if the schedule change. For what I get from this plumber, the price is an A rating.

They came when they said they were gonna come. The price was fair. They answered all my questions and told me exactly what was wrong and how to fix it. They were straight forward with answers. They stand behind what they are saying and their word. The are very accommodating.

The plumbing team arrived exactly on time. Located where the leak was (a pinhole leak in a bend). They fixed the leak by soldering new short pieces of pipes and a new elbow.

Extending the pipe below the electrical service panel at least 18" to one side of the panel went well. My only dissatisfaction is that, due to the length of the pipe, it is not rigid and it springs when pressure is applied to it. I will now have to ask the plumber to attach a bracket to the pipe to secure it to the wall so that it will be rigid. We had to ask the plumber to return, regarding the valve job. We had asked him to do it on a previous visit. He worked on it for a short while and reported to us that it was fixed. After he left, we tested it and found that it was still incorrectly reversed (the arrow on the handle pointing to the blue on the escutcheon yielded hot water & the arrow on the handle pointing to red yielded cold water). When we called him back and pointed out that the problem was not corrected the previous time, he also tried to argue that we were wrong. But we insisted that he follow the instructions. He finally did and the problem was corrected.
Response from RK Knight Plumbing & Rooter
"We are so sorry your experience with us was not what you expected. Always feel free to call us her at the office and we will make sure the problem is corrected and is to your expectations. At R.K. Knight Plumbing we give our customer a 1 year warranty on our work and our parts. The plumber is question has since retired."

He was more than an hour late and didn't call to let me know he'd be late, and maybe that's partly why he charged nothing. He was pleasant and competent.

We really liked the prompt service given to us by this plumber. They came right out, took care of the leak and cleaned up really well after themselves when they were done. One thing I was happy with was that they didn't mind following up and testing the unit to make sure it didn't leak anymore. A lot of other contractors would have fixed it with the water off and left.

I was absolutely impressed with this company. The plumber was very punctual and took the time to explain the process to me, knowing that I very likely wasn't going to hire him to do the work, since the city would do it. I called the RK Knight office and told them of my wonderful experience with their employee. I will absolutely use them, for all my future plumbing needs.

The plumber arrived 20 minutes after we called. He was very polite and completed all work in about one hour. I feel the work was reasonably priced and would not hesitate to call on them again.

I HAVE USED THIS COMPANY FOR OVER 25 YEARS AND WOULD NOT USE ANYONE ELSE. THEY ARE NOT ALWAYS ON TIME. THEYRE USUALLY ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATE. THEY HAVE REASONABLE PRICES, AND THEY EXPLAIN EVERYTHING. YOU NEVER HAVE TO CALL TO HAVE YOUR WORK REDONE. THEY EXPLAIN THE WORK IN TERMS THAT I CAN UNDERSTAND.

I'VE ALWAYS LIKED THEM PREVIOUSLY. I WAS JUST DISAPPOINTED THIS TIME. THE PRICING WAS HIGHER THAN I THOUGHT. THEY DID NOT CHARGE HOURLY AS I HAD ANTICIPATED. I WAS VERY SURPRISED AT THE COST.
