"**Update 10/19/15:

TMI did call me to chat about the issues I experienced. Apparently the costs were correct (although I still think they are too high). The customer service rep did say that they should not have quoted anything for me over the phone. I appreciated the response, and concern, but I would still hesitate to recommend them, as I think the prices are too high, and I do not like the model of not having an estimate until you have already paid the service visit fees. I will go with plumbers who charge an hourly rate in the future.

*Original Review:

My experience was similar to the review from August 2014. 
We were having new flooring installed in our bathroom and needed the toilet pulled and then later reinstalled on a higher surface. After getting phone estimates in the $200 range (including the site visit fees) from a number of plumbers, I decided to go with TMI because they seemed to have a better sense of the specific cost based on the service. 
Once the plumber was on site, it became clear that we needed to switch out the shutoff valve at the toilet, as 40+ years of Rock Island hard water had done a number on it. At this point, I felt as if there was a bit of bait-and-switch going on. Quickly flashing some tables at me from a booklet, the plumber then quoted me $410, instead of the $200 range. These tables did not outline why the cost would be more than twice the price for a smidgen more work, but I felt that at this point it would have been a waste of money and time to pay this plumber for the estimate alone, and start anew with another service. 
We determined that the toilet also suffered from similar issues (hard water), and he recommended replacing it. I did sidestep his hard sell to purchase a toilet through them. Instead, he spent a total of 20 minutes turning off the main water supply, replacing the valve at the toilet and removing the toilet. 
In the interim (as other contractors were replacing my floors), I reached out to TMI to see if there would be additional charges for installation if I purchased a new toilet on my own. Thankfully, they said no, so I went ahead an purchased one to be installed once the floors were finished. 
When the plumber returned to install the new toilet, he tried to charge me an additional ~$120 to raise the toilet level. Upon inquiring about my receipt (which I did not receive originally) for my earlier payment, we learned that I had already paid for this service. 
Long story, short: the work was done well, but my major issue is in their billing structure. There was a definite lack of clarity in the process of going about an estimate, and the price charged for a minor addition doubled my original estimate. This seems like a classic bait-and-switch to me. This, coupled with the attempt to extract an additional charge out of me discourages me from ever using their services again."

"I am a very happy customer! I want to thank Wes Glasgow for all his help deciding how to solve my problems and answering all my many questions! He is great! I had my basement waterproofed and Alex, Augie, Damon, Ty were wonderful and very accommodating to my needs. My basement is my place of business. It is now dry with the help of my new sump pump, and my Sedona keeps my humidity in check. I also had my bowing wall anchored. It was a source of anxiety to my home and business. Jonathan H and Kevin came in and anchored the wall and put covers over the anchors. They did a super job, the wall looks great, and we feel safe! All "my" men were wonderful! They were efficient, thoughtful, helpful, kind and considerate of me and my business. I would recommend them and the company to my family and friends."

"Called in claim on 6/18; tech assigned on 6 /19; so far so good. Claim was for failed well pump with NO water to my home with two disabled seniors. Due to heavy workload and no extra pay on weekends the tech came for diagnostics 4 days later. He verified the failed pump and tried to purchase one at Home Depot. None in stock, had to be ordered. Pump came in on 6/30 and tech arrived today, 7/1, and expertly installed the new pump. Choice has a $ 500 limit on well repair, which is 1/3 of a typical bill. That dollar cap is riduculous. On a positive note, C-Force provides expert work for Choice and would be my choice for any future work."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."
