Drain Clog or Blockage Clearing
$79
Technician came, he just looked at Toilet by opening cover and told me 2 options for quote and charged USD 79, claiming that would be adjusted against quote I will select. It is over 4 hours and neither I have received any quotes and I ended up paying USD 79 for just opening toilet cover. I didn't know that Angie provide such services.

They tried to charge my dad $440 and replace the pipes for the sink. They initially told me $79 over the phone. The pipes did not need replacing, and he called someone else to do the job. Never again!

Terrence Spranger was my plumber. His quote was fair. He was on time to the job. He replaced my hot water tank and shut off valve. He suggested placing a tray under the tank that has a drain hose just in case the new tank eventually leaks then it won’t run all over my basement. He had the model and serial numbers added to my receipt for insurance purposes. He was very personable and put the customer first. He went beyond what was expected of him to do. Thank you
