Power Plumbing & Sewer Contractor Inc

The drain installation was suggested as a proactive solution to this ongoing problem. I think they made an absolute right recommendation. I did not feel pressured to accept their advise or their price estimate, but they were able to schedule the contractor for this specialty work within 2 days. A city inspector is required to be present when the T-pipe is installed and they were able to arrange this as well. They came early (7:AM) and worked all day to dig a 6x6x6ft hole and tie in the T-pipe about 12ft in diameter feed into the drain pipe. Although they encountered an on site problem, I was not charged extra. I had extensive house flooding last summer but I believe they have corrected my problem. I had worked with this company before and trusted their job performance.

It went well. They were done in a day. Price was reasonable. Only complaint was that it took them 3 weeks to get to the job.

Our sump pump was ejecting water all over our utility closet after we had just finished two loads of laundry on Sunday morning. I looked up a local plumber on Angie's list and called them immediately. I left a message with Power Plumbing & Sewer's answering service and within 15 minutes Robin called me. I told her what was happening and she explained to me what was technically happening based on my description and then told me my options, including a temporary solution to avoid having to pay the extra cost of having someone come out on a Sunday. We went with that option, and I called them back Monday morning to schedule someone to come out that day. They were able to get someone to our house by 10:30AM, and he was finished in an hour and a half. The plumber confirmed what Robin had suspected was the problem and he fixed it.

Very good- prompt and quick, what else could you ask for. They call you to let you know when someone is coming and follow up. The plumber needed a few special parts, ordered them, then came back in a few days to finish the job.

As a returning customer Rae Lynn promptly scheduled a plumber for the next afternoon (12-2) Jesse arrived on time and replaced leaking trap and tested with running water. Unfortunately the trap leaked again, but only when the washer dumped a full load of water in the tub. Jesse came out the following day and added some additional washers and silicone tape and retested. Everything was OK and premises were left in a clean condition. While I could have gotten by a bit cheaper by hiring a handy man service at $95/hr., it probably would have taken longer unless the handyman service had the parts on hand, which is doubtful. I know with Power Plumbing I will pay the going union rate, but I know the work will be done efficiently and correctly.

The men were courteous and knowledgeable, and very hard working. They came when they said they would, stayed until the job was done and did a great job. A much better job than the "big name" guys did who we had come out a couple of years ago. Additionally, they treated my Dad with courtesy and respect, which the other guys definitely did not. We definitely recommend Power Plumbing to anyone who needs plumbing work done.

While hooking up the dishwasher, we noticed that there was a problem with a pipe. They came back out to look at it and charged me even though they couldn't fix it. The people they send out are incompetent. I told them I would never use them again.

The service was great. Great communication from the the home base. Plumber showed up on time and did a great job. Used the same too! I already had but was better at getting the toy out than I was! Seemed a bit on the expensive side, but plumbing work is expensive in general.

The receptionist and I over the phone were able to isolate the problem and determine that it was the pilot light on the hot water heater, that had blown out, but I didn't know how to re-light the pilot. Someone was out at my condo within the hour, re-lit the pilot and explained to me how to do it myself if it happened to go out again. Also, they gave me the contractor's rate since it was such a quick fix.

Power Plumbing sent out a plumber who showed up on time and knew exactly what needed to be done. He shut off the water at the street, then replaced the valve. He had everything he needed and explained everything he did.

Overall, I was very pleased with the project. The installer arrived early, was professional and friendly, and performed the work efficiently. There were a couple of material problems that he identified during the installation (hairline crack in the toilet and broken frost free spicket) but both were pro-actively brought to my attention and addressed at no additional cost. The work was expensive, but high-quality and in-line with my expectations. I plan on using Power for my future plumbing needs.

The two master bath lavatory sinks stopped draining at the same time at 6:30 in the morning. We found Power Plumbing on Angie's web site and called when they opened at 7:30 a.m. and were promised a plumber before noon or between noon and 2 p.m. The plumber Scott arrived by 8:45 a.m.! As described above, the work was done within 2 hours at a fair price. Scott also gave us valuable advice on how to maintain the drains. He was very knowledgeable about the science of chemical drain cleaners and how they interact with the pipes. He was very professional, had clean work habits, and good communication skills. He also really believes in his company and is a good example why it is successful.

Power Plumbing called 15 minutes before their scheduled arrival to let me know the plumber, Jason, was on his way. Jason was very friendly and courteous when he entered my home. He asked me what were my issues and then he proceeded to fix both problems in a timely manner. He fixed the Water Heater in a few minutes and then determined that my garbage disposal was clogged and did not have to have to be replaced. While making the repairs, he explained to me clearly and in plain English what he was doing. He also answered my various plumbing questions and was very patient. After he completed all the work, he cleaned up and left the work areas in good shape.

Since my handyman couldn't fix my issues without breaking into the walls, I wanted to be sure these guys could fix the problem reasonably. They refused to do an estimate and instead wanted $140 for the service call (incl. 1 hr. of work), plus $115/hr. for every extra hour. I told them I would call elsewhere.

Great. When I called, they gave me several options on the type of water heater that would best suit my home. I had done some research before the call and their recommendations were spot on and they didn't try to sell me something I didn't need. Their dispatcher gave me a courtesy call the morning of the appointment and the 2 man crew arrived on time.

My toilet was leaking from the bottom of the toilet - I knew it was most likely the wax seal at the base of the toilet, but couldn't lift the toilet myself to take care of this problem. Found Power Plumbing through Angie's List and had a wonderful experience from the first call - the woman who answered the phone listened to my description of the problem, asked me questions, and was able to get an appointment for me the next day. I was told the cost for labor for 1st and subsequent hours, plus reminded I get a 10% discount on labor because I called based on my Angie's List look-up. Mike was great - took care of the leaky toilet/wax seal in 20 minutes, which left time for him to put a new flapper into the tank (which I'd needed for awhile). Very neat - he cleaned up all of the debris from the old wax seal, all water that had come out from under the toilet. I would definitely hire Power Plumbing for any future plumbing needs.

Initial call to the company was pleasant. They provided their rates over the phone as well as the Angie's List discount. They said somebody would be able to get here by noon. I received a call within two hours that the serviceman was on his way. Scott arrived within 25 minutes. He was very courteous and professional. He took the time to explain the problem and was very thorough. I especially appreciate how very clean he kept the work area during the potentially very dirty process. He completed the work in just under 2 hours. He probably would have been done sooner had I not interrupted him with questions. I was extremely pleased with his work. Highly recommend them on this one experience.

I was initially told on the phone that I would need to plumbers to come out and rot out the sewer to fix the sewer smell. We later decided just to have one guy come out and see where the smell was coming from. As it turns out, it was all we needed. He fixed the two potential sources for the smell, a drain under the dryer and an unsealed pipe.

He was WONDERFUL! He was quick about his work, gave me pointers on how to avoid or correct the situations in the future, and figured out solutions that were cost effective. I was VERY pleased with him!

It went fine. They arrived on time, and had described the work to be done before quite accurately. Everything was clean after the work was finished and I have had no problems since.

He showed up in the early end of the 4-hour window for my appointment, which was nice. Power Plumbing called to say he was on his way. The plumber was friendly and neat. I had originally wanted to have shut-off valves installed on my tub, as well, but he advised me that the pipes I have are the wrong size, so I should wait until I do a more general remodeling. I also asked about having a recirculation pump put on our hot water return to try and keep more hot water in the pipes (I live on the 3rd floor of an old 6-flat). He said it probably wouldn't do much good. It was a shock to get a bill for $136 (after the Angie's List 10% discount) just to replace a tiny washer in the valve-stem, which took him maybe 10 minutes.

Great; see above.

They are very good. The prices are standard and fair.

The service man showed up right on time (I am horrible with names). He cleared the clog and had the new disposal installed in about 40 minutes and could not have been nicer. I was expecting the same lecture I got from my father and brothers about onion skins down the disposal, but he just gently suggested that I trash or compost them next time. He even left the cabinet under my sink cleaner than its been in years.

Fantastic! Both calls were on rental properties that I manage and both calls were after hours. The first was a Saturday night and after trouble shooting a few things over the phone they sent 2 guys out who not only fixed the problem, but also took the time to explain everything to me. They were very helpful and helped me to understand why this happened as well as what we could do to prevent it. The second one was a water leak/broken pipes. Same story after hours they tried to trouble shoot on the phone then sent out a gentlemen who was very helpfully and fixed things right away.
