VanDerBosch Plumbing Inc.

.  As you can tell, I would use VanDerBosch again and again and again.

They give estimates and are very accurate. They show up on time. They are pretty reasonably priced. They came in about 10% below all other estimates on the sewer repair.

We have worked with Van Der Bosch for three or four years now, and they have been beyond fantastic.
We lived in a garden (basement) unit condo that had some severe plumbing issues. Now, all garden units have water issues - that's just the nature of the beast of living underground. But our unit had some particularly bad problems: The common piping for the toilets was old and not installed to handle a below-grade unit, so several times during huge rainstorms, sewage from the other people in our condo backed up through our tub. We had VDB come out multiple times for this issue.
The reason why it took and quot;multiple timesand quot; had nothing to do with shoddy craftsmanship on the part of VDB. Since the problem was in the common pipes, it was an issue for the condo association. The association understandably chose to do some lower cost fixes the first couple times around, but eventually opted for the full pipe replacement when they realized that this was going to continue being an issue.
Throughout the process, VDB advocated for us to the condo board, and I think it was their advocacy that eventually led to the association eventually chosing the big-ticket long-term fix. Now that might make you think they push the more expensive stuff for their own benefit. But that's not the case at all - more than once, they urged us NOT to have some expensive work done that they didn't think would actually lead to a long-term benefit for us. (Not to mention they made several visits for free when dealing with minor things.) This honesty was one of the biggest things that we appreciated about them, and we really felt that we could trust them 100%.
That eventual big fix was that they had to rip up our floor to get to and replace a big pipe. This was a multi-day job that left us unable to use that particular room in our house. Not only did they get this done in what seemed to us like a pretty short amount of time, but they left the floor looking like nothing had ever happened to it. After they did this, we never had the sewage problem ever again.
Also, the plumbers that came to our unit were the nicest guys in the world. I don't know if it's company policy that the service workers be so polite, but I think every time someone came over, they called us and quot;ma'amand quot; and and quot;sir.and quot;
Anyways, these guys are great. I give them my absolutely highest recommendation, and am really sad that we can't take them with us to West Virginia when we move.
NOTE ON THE COST OF SERVICE: I don't remember any of the costs involved, since this happened over a period of three years. Angie's List converted my and quot;??and quot; into a 0.00.
