We called them back out on 1/29/13 because the refrigerator was leaking. They found a clogged defrost drain and fixed that without charging us. We called them back on 5/6/13 because it stopped cooling again. This time they said it was the evaporator fan and was going to cost 225.00. At this point we paid the 50.00 service charge and decided to use another refrigerator we have in the garage for a while. I was hoping to find someone else for the repair work. We finally called them back and had them do the repairs 2/20/14. I found out at that time that they would not honor the original quote because of the time lapse in between. So we had to pay the 50.00 service visit to have them diagnose the same problem and then the 225.00 on top of that. The refrigerator is still up and running on 6/5/14. I understand that it could have actually been various things going out on the refrigerator, however I am skeptical considering the amount of times we had to call them over the same problem. I honestly half expected the refrigerator to start doing the same thing after the last repairs. If we have any more problems, I will be finding someone else to do the repairs. However I feel like I should give them a "C" because I do not know for sure that it wasn't actually different parts going out and causing the same problem.

The front storm is so cheap that snow came through the frame. Not around the door.... through the joints of the door.

In addition, the contract included disposal of the old unit. B&J was selected as a bidder based on Angie's List reviews and experience with B&J servicing the old unit. The proposal phase went quickly and well. A detailed calculation was done to determine the right size unit (the old unit was a 3 ton AC). As part of the proposal process all the equipment and work included in the proposal were explained by Kurt the B&J representative. Only necessary items were included in the proposal.

Installation was done as scheduled and completed in less than one day. The technician (Dean) was professional and well organized.

FAQs for french drain service projects in Bethany, IL
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

Required to have applicable state and local licenses

The cost to install a drain pipe is $600 on average, but the total can range between $150 and $2,000. Some cost factors that influence your project price include the type of drain, the area’s accessibility, the proximity of existing drain lines, and whether you’re installing a new drain or replacing an old one. Replacing the p-trap or s-trap under a single fixture will usually cost around $150, while replacing a main drain pipe can cost well over $2,000.
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.

We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
