Kurt with J. Schulz arrived within the time slot (two hour window) on the day he said he would be here. He asked what the problem was and where to go, then he went right to work. He replaced the shutoff valves and even adjusted the flushing mechanism in one of the toilets to save water. He was done within one hour and asked if there was anything else. I asked him what it would cost to replace my electric hot water heater. He checked it out and advised me that it probably didn't need to be replaced yet (it is 10 years old). Advised me to wait until it started to leak (no harm, since it is the garage), or to wait until it is 15 years old before I need to think about replacing it.
Very happy with the service, price, and advice.
Schultz showed up right on time. I even got a "heads up" phone call from Kurt, alerting me that he was on his way and would arrive in about a half hour. Sure enough, he was right on time.
He was polite and courteous. Removed the old obsolete garden hose style shut off valves, and replaced them with the better more modern shut off valves. The new shut off valves require only an effortless and simple quarter turn in either direction to turn the water on or off. This is a great feature. Unlike the old fashioned garden hose style valves which require several turns of the handle in either direction to turn the water on or off.
This was not an easy job, as the water pipes are in the wall. A hole has to be cut into the wall in order to get to the soldered pipe joints. Then, inside the wall, a torch (fire hazard) is used carefully to remove the soldered copper joints and solder in the new pipe and new shut off valves. What about the hole in the wall? Plumbers are not carpenters or dry wall mechanics. Shultz can put you in touch with a dry wall repair professional. Or, you can find one on your own. Fortunately for me, I'm handy enough to repair the wall.
For a reasonable and fair cost I got a job well done, and done on time. Schultz left my home as clean and orderly as it was when he arrived.
Thank you Schultz!
Everything went great. Curt the plumber was spot on time as he promised. He did an excellent and CLEAN job. The price was fair and reasonable. Now I have peace of mind with a new hot water heater. The old one was beginning to leak. I purchased the new one and had it in my garage ready to be installed by Curt (Schultz). Although, I do believe Curt would have picked up the new water heater at Lowes and brought it with him, if I requested.
Also, Schultz is a one man show, owner/operator. No employees no sub contractors. Just Curt, the owner.........Tank you Curt.
Every visit by this firm was on time, with excellent service.
