The hot/cold water pipes got cut and closed as planned. When the plumber tried to cut the waster PVC pipe, it broke off. He warned me ahead of time that that is something that could happen 1 out of 100 times... He was able to fix it. The whole thing probably took about an hour. I found the price to be extremely expensive, just to cut 3 pipes and close them off, but I guess that's how it is. I sent an email to the company about the price, but I didn't get any response. Just to be fair to the company, the price was discussed upfront, and I agreed to the price (as I had to have it done, so that I can do the kitchen cabinets)

Duane Blanton plumbing was very friendly and responsive during this extremely busy time of flooding. My plumber (Mark) was very friendly and knowledgeable and was in and out of the house in a very short amount of time. I will be relying on them for future plumbing needs.

It went well until he told me that he had to replace the end of the line under the street for $3500. I questioned that, as I had the whole line replaced 9 years ago with PVC.

Went very well. Barton's was one of a very select few that would give me an estimate of what it might cost over the phone or on the web, most wanted to come out (many for a service fee of $50 or more) and do an onsite estimate. Didn't have time for all that screwing around. Found deal on Angies list for $1065 for 50 gal Bradford tank at Barton's. That was much better than other estimates I had been able to get. Glenn came out the same day, reviewed what I had, saw that no plumbing or gas line changes were needed ( I went from a Bradford heater to another Bradford), called in to validate the $1065 deal (it was a pre-purchase deal on Angies List), started draining the old tank, laid out a bunch of tarps to protect the floor, and went to get the tank at his supplier. He was back within 30 minutes. Job was done professionally and competently in about an hour. Would definitely call Barton's again. I wont be calling my former plumber, one I had a relationship for years, ever again, and will next go over to their Angies list review page and do a (poor) review on the call I had with their customer service people.

It went great! Dan did not make any assumptions. He also went into the basement to check the main drain pipe, noticed that it had a slight dip and not pitched properly. He gave an assessment and cost to have it re-pitched. He also suggested a new garbage disposal since it was 15 years old, the motor may not be as strong and blades may be dull. He gave me options on what they would cost and pros / cons. At the end I decided to have it power rodded and everything is working great. Will decide in the future, if the re-pitch and new garbage disposal will be fixed / replaced. Kudos to dan for an honest assessment and job well done.

They quoted us a price on the phone and then showed up (a day late) and asked for a higher price before any work was even begun. When we questioned it, they gave us an attitude. Then they questioned the work done previously (by their company) and when I showed him receipt, they said their own guy didn't fill out the paperwork correctly. Unbelievable. There are plenty of plumbing services out there, DO NOT use this one - we never will again.
Response from Duane Blanton Plumbing, Sewer & Drainage Inc.

"Good afternoon Mr [Member Name Removed], We are truly sorry for the lack of service that you recieved. There is no excuse for what happened at your home. Please know that we value our customers and this should not have happened.. Myself and my office manager were out of town and the ball got dropped. I sincerely apoligize and I am more than willing to make the situation right if that is at all possible.. Please know that I am not trying to make excuses for what took place at your home, even if we are out of town, you as the customer should have been taken care of. If you wouldn't mind calling me at 847-855-0000 I would love to have the oppurtunity to discuss this with you. Thank you, Duane Blanton"

Not very well. We had 2 problems. One of the problems was with our toilet and it was not fixed. The sink was fixed okay. The replacement part for the toilet did not work. We was busy during the time so we was unable to call them back.

They have had severe organizational changes. They no longer have as many people as they use to, they no longer have as many trucks as they use to, and I had to wait 48 hours for them to show up. Greatly disappointed, because when I first used them, they were right there, right away, and they did the complete job. They were late. I stayed home to wait for them, and they were six hours late. I was a little disappointed. They routed the sewer. They did the work, they did the job, they didn't do it completely, as they did the last time they came. The last time they came, they put a camera down, this time no tv. As he explained it to me, he did not have the equipment in the truck. That added to my disappointment. They did not get there when they said they would. With plumbing problems, you need them right away.

Your time is valuable and we did provide you a 10% discount off your total cost of the service that day for your inconvenience.

Patrick, Matt and Dan came by and surveyed what we needed to get done. They were very personable and during the pre work inspection they gave me options to save money where possible on parts. They kept the work area clean, the job was a clean design and the water heater worked flawlessly. I would call them again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone.

It is working now but It took him 5 times to do it. The last technician was good. He was on time, cleaned up and explained everything and I didn’t have any problems with him. Some of the prior ones didn’t look like they knew what they were doing.
Response from Duane Blanton Plumbing, Sewer & Drainage Inc.

"We appreciate that you have given our company the opportunity to provide service in regards to your sump pump issue. You noted that we were out on five different occasions. This was due to the fact that when we came to rectify the problem on the prior service calls we gave estimates to take care of the issue causing your sump pump to not function properly, but you chose not to have the services done on those occasions. In addition, you were not charged for those service calls as well. It wasn't until you opted to have the service done on the last visit that the issue was resolved. In addition, we would like to note that we did apply a 10% discount for your inconvenience. We are happy to see that the last technician provided the quality service we strive to provide our customers. Your satisfaction is important to us and we hope you will consider using our services again in the future."

I was shocked at the price of $187.50 to unplug a toilet. It literally took the plumber less than 1 minute to accomplish the task. Another $125.00 was spent to secure an R/O faucet that had come loose. It was far more work, yet the price was reasonable. Go figure! The price of the Big Deal was subtracted from the price reflected below. I can't remember if it was $39.00 or $59.00.
