Our plumber Felix was excellent. Our problem was a back yard faucet that had frozen and had to be replaced. Felix did not happen to have the needed size replacement of the type we wanted, so he had to go to two local supply houses in the rain to find the right one. He was even kind to our dogs!

David (owner) came by to price the place. He was professional, and his price was very fair... More impressive than that, he brought some of the materials he was going to use, to demonstrate that he emphasized a quality job. This showed so much when we did the final walkthrough. He ran lines through an old house that had been remodeled. The attic was puny and the construction was bizarro... Yet he managed to snake every line with a minimal footprint. The drywall guy I hired to patch the modest holes he needed to make said he mends repipes all the time. He marveled at how little the intrusion was. I'd hire these guys any day.

Frank arrived on time, friendly and professional, Very good at explaining what he had to do, as the fixture that held the toilet in place was broken and needed to be replaced, before replacing new toilet. Removed garbage disposal in sink and replaced with trap. Job completed in 5 hours, Would use again...
Response from Alternate Design Plumbing Inc

"Thank you, [Member Name Removed] and [Member Name Removed], for the continued opportunity to be of help to you both; we hope that your new toilet serves you well and for many years to come! It was a pleasure helping expedite getting these issues addressed and we very much appreciate you taking the time to give us this very nice review!"

Bad first impression so it will not go.
Response from Alternate Design Plumbing Inc

"[Member Name Removed], my experience in handling phone calls to my office is, when a homeowner calls, they are very ready to do the talking and tell me what their needs are. Once I provide my greeting, my best practice is to allow the homeowners to lead me where they want us to go in helping them, I have to admit that you came across as more of a solicitor than a homeowner, hence, I let you do the talking. I am sorry that we got off on the wrong foot. Laura"

Fantastic. Would have gone much faster, but the permit inspections slowed things down. Very prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. New drain line below grade installed to accommodate the fast drain pump and water lines moved to opposite end of the previous tub.
Response from Alternate Design Plumbing Inc

"Thank you, [Member Name Removed], for the great review! It was a pleasure working with you on this project and we were happy to be a part of this process with you! Wishing you well in using your awesome new tub, it will be a great feature in your home!"

An A straight down for everything. That is when he elevated the toilet. He put in the platform or the toilevator. It elevates the toilet 4 inches above the floor so that people with bad knees are able to get up and get down with a little bit of more ease. It was for my mom. She was still alive and she was almost 90.

They are clean, thorough and fantastic to work with. I can't recomend them highly enough. In fact, I found something called a toilevator because I was moving my mother in with me and she needed the toilet to be higher and we couldn't find the right height. She wanted it to be 19 inches high and we couldn't find any that are made 19 inches high anymore. So, I called this plumber that came recommended to me from a friend and told him about that. He said he didn't know anything about it but he would take a look and let me know. So, he did some research online and he got right back to me 3 days later or less and said he can do that. He can put that in. I would give him the highest rating all the way down. I have used him several times. He completely replumbed my kitchen and both of my bathrooms. He was here two years ago. That is when he did all of this major work, but I have used him several times. I would use him again in a heart beat. He has repaired clogs, he has replaced garbage disposals, he has reconfigured the plumbing in my kitchen and both of my bathrooms. He installed a toilevator on one of my toilets so the toilet was sitting on a platform. He has installed 2 toilets, 3 sinks, replaced 2 tubs with a shower. He is an expert in his field. He is thorough. I wouldn't give him anything but an A for everything.

David is, by far, the most talented plumber I have ever had the privilege to know!  He is an expert in his field, proud of his work (and with good reason) and a tribute to his field.  He and his company have done innovative, wonderful things in my house in order to get me what I need for my renovations.  Knowing David is like having a brother with a tremendous skill, he feels like family, and treats you the same way.  I have hired him for many things in the past, and he remains my go-to person for the future.

They completed the job with no issues; however, they are EXPENSIVE!!! I had a part replaced in my shower (Moen Posi Temp Cartridge).  The total cost was just for labor; the part was free since Moen provides a lifetime part replacement guarantee. They charge a $49.00 diagnostic fee that is paid regardless of whether or not you agree to have the work performed. I had a $20 coupon so the total charge was $298.00 ($49.00 diagnostic fee + $269.00 labor fee - $20.00 coupon).  My advice for anyone seeking plumbing services is to shop around and describe the issue and then try to get an idea of the cost of the service. I am sure that you would be able to have the same work done for a lot less money!!!
Response from Alternate Design Plumbing Inc

"We thank you for the opportunity to be of service to you and assure you that there is ALWAYS someone that will do the work less expensively, in this world. Our assurance to you is that, should you have any further issues with this fixture, in relation to the work that we performed, we will fully warranty all that we did and the parts that we provided for the full year. We will be here and still be in business to receive your phone call. The costs that we incur in accepting responsibility for your plumbing system, once we touch it, are prohibitive and yet, as a licensed and insured contractor, we must meet these requirements placed upon us by the State of Florida and our Industry. We don't completely expect our clients to understand what things cost, when it is something out of their realm of expertise, but we always do our best to explain what we are doing and we always present the pricing to you, for your approval, BEFORE we perform the work so that you are not caught off guard with a price, after we are completed. We followed all of our protocols with you and once again thank you for the opportunity to be of help and to know that we did the work correctly, to code and with our full warranty in place."

I was really impressed that the first thing David did before he came into my house was put on footies to cover his shoes. He assessed the problem and quickly found out that it wasn't as bad as I thought. He told me the price and did the work. No fuss, no muss. I would definitely use this company again. Thank you so much!

"(Member name removed), thank you so much for the opportunity to be of help to you and your family.

Please be assured we shall be here for you in the future should you have any other plumbing needs or "emergencies". Sincerely, David and the Staff of Alternate Design Plumbing, Inc."

We tried to fix it ourselves and could not so we called in the experts.  Frank arrived on-time and was very professional.  He explained what he was going to do and went over the pricing options.  We were very happy with the result and would definitely call them again if needed.  I knew there was a service charge just to come out which was fine, but I wish they would have applied it to the amount of the total repair.
Response from Alternate Design Plumbing Inc

"Member, we thank you so much for the time that you took to post this review and we thank you for the opportunity to be of service to you as well. You were a pleasure to deal with and we are always happy when we can help make a troubled situation "go away". As for our service fee to come to your location, we would like to take a moment to explain and be sure that any other readers understand how we operate as well. Our pricing is straightforward and upfront for your benefit and clarity, our service fee is merely to help offset some of the cost of getting our professional to your door. If we were to incorporate that cost into the overall price of the job, then we would have to raise the individual prices of the services that we provide because, either way, we have incurred the cost of arriving at your door. Many of us are accustomed to the protocol you had hoped for in dealing with many businesses; we do not operate the same way and we all know how high prices can be when dealing with some of these same businesses, just be aware that when the service fees are "rolled in" you are still paying them, you just are not actually "seeing" it in the breakdown. As a matter of fact, when you have someone to your home that advertises "free" estimates, ultimately the individual or company that you hire will incorporate those costs of getting to your location into their pricing. We choose to be honest and upfront with our clients and keep the clarity of the transaction as transparent as possible. Again, we thank you for your business and will be here when you need us again and we hope that this explanation helps you and anyone else reading this review. Sincerely, Your Professional Staff of Alternate Design Plumbing, Inc."
