"Excellent prompt affordable service. I was contacted directly by Patrick, the owner, over the holiday weekend. He quickly scheduled an appointment for Tuesday after the long weekend. Once he assessed the work needed, he got me a great price. By Wednesday morning, he and his team had installed a new garbage disposal and new toilet. All the work was done quickly and while I was at work. They got everything done properly and left no mess behind. It was a seamless process and I am very satisfied with the results. I will be using them again for any plumbing issues. I highly recommend this service. "
"RESPONSIVENESS TO NEEDS There are different measures of success on any project and different constraints and issues that will challenge those measures. My primary measure of success was a DRY basement, and Brian?s proposal to deliver it was comprehensive. He was committed to meeting my request while satisfying my second measure of success: do it at an affordable price.
ESTIMATE Brian does all estimates himself instead of sending out salespeople (which I appreciate). I scheduled Brian's first visit in the days following a large rainfall that caused flooding in neighboring areas, so his schedule was packed. Understandably, Brian was crunched between appointments when he arrived slightly behind schedule, but he had kept me updated in the hours preceding his arrival. Brian quickly conveyed a focus on resolving the seepage problem. He also listened to my concerns, identified primary and secondary issues, and said he would send a thorough e-mail containing precise details for a solution with a cost breakdown. He arrived and left in about hour, and within a couple days he sent an e-mail estimate with two options. 1) A complete basement drain tile system with crack repairs, or 2) a partial system that he believed would resolve the problem at a lesser cost. He offered to allow me to "upgrade" to the full system in the future and pay the difference between the two estimates. This type of offer was not even discussed by the three other companies (two big names and one small business) that came for estimates.
With the exception of the extended (years-long) payment / financing options offered by the larger companies, Brian?s proposed solution was almost a hands-down winner. The other small company was comparable, but after sending the initial estimate, Brian offered to return on the weekend to give me the opportunity to talk again when there was more time. Other companies' approaches to doing exterior excavation ranged from doing minor reinforcement to not even wanting to touch it. Brian, in contrast, said he can?t honestly guarantee a dry basement when he didn?t know what the previous repair looked like. He offered to completely excavate the two walls that had work done previously and to replace (if necessary) any inferior quality materials with his own fix. Now we're cooking with gas! The cost of the job remained competitive, and this ?extra mile? effort on top of everything else fully satisfied my need to be 100% sure the seepage would be stopped. I opted for the full drain tile system.
TIME The timeframe Brian quoted was in line with all of his competitors: 2 days max. The time element of the job met some challenges, taking 5 full working days to complete, (Tues-Fri plus half days Sat-Sun). The reason? The crew found the floor was new, dense 4-inch concrete poured on top of the original 4-inch concrete floor. This meant twice the work for the breakup crew that was prepared for a conventional job, making it impossible to accommodate the original time frame. Brian promised to never leave a job unfinished, so he juggled his crews' schedules to make daily progress, and he never once raised his price despite the extra time or material (concrete) required. I was very grateful. He also personally came to finish the job on the weekend rather than pushing it out to Monday or Tuesday.
EXTRAS AND RESPONSIVENESS Some plumbing in the floor was impacted by the concrete breakup and required repairs due to its age and condition. Brian took the time to find the exact materials I requested for the repair and installed them. I was not present at installation so he took photos and video and sent them to me via smartphone so I could verify he got it right. What other contractor does that?! He also paid attention to every detail for laying out the design of the downspout tie-ins, finishing touches, and every single special request I threw at him. He also spotted an additional leak in the corner of the foundation and sealed it up as well. His commitment to resolving every issue to my satisfaction was outstanding.
Brian made himself accessible via phone, e-mail and text, and he responded quickly to inquiries. I wanted to know every detail of the work, and Brian accommodated. Another totally unexpected surprise came when Brian discovered that some of the promised work did not need to be performed, and he provided credit for this instead of using the difference for my extra requests.
SATISFACTION "You'll be happy," is Brian's mantra. He addressed a couple gripes - dust exposure to the first floor space; a few trampled plants outside - by providing equitable financial credits. These professional oversights on his crew's part are unacceptable to Brian, and credit on the final bill was all he could do to make up for it. Overall, the crew was polite, and one even brought a stack of extra floor tiles from his personal supply to replace some I'd lost during demolition work I had done weeks earlier!
From start to finish, despite delays and minor shortcomings, Brian executed on the proposed project by 100% nailing the two most important measures of success ? quality and cost. As for timing, the job ran long but Brian didn't quit until the job was done. I never expect perfection; nevertheless, Brian aimed to earn my satisfaction as his primary goal. I give an A+ on nearly every category, taking a point or two away for the issues mentioned.
Rain is coming in the next two days, and I'll only edit this review if the repairs fail to deliver a dry basement. I am posting this review before the rain comes as a vote of confidence that I won't have to change a word.
The most important criterion to assess a job well done is whether you'd recommend a service provider to a family member or friend. In Brian's case, I absolutely would."
"My wife contacted several painters in the local area for price quotes. She knew she wanted David and his team the moment she met him. He was professional, extremely knowledgable, and he gave us a military discount. My landlord was very particular about how she wanted the house painted and David took all of that into consideration. Leading up to the job, he notified me when he purchased the specific paint she wanted and the total cost. He also contacted me the day prior and the morning of. His team arrived on time. I don't think we anticpiated how long it was going to take for our two story home to get loaded into that truck but it took most of the day. David worked solo on painting while his team moved and never missed a beat. In fact, when my landlord showed up to check on the progress she started grilling him and he had answers for everything...different kinds of paints, bases, primer use and when, cutting style, technique, etc. etc. She left pleased as he now does painting for her other homes! As the day wore on, he bought his team lunch and dinner (including me) to keep his guys' motivated. He even bought my dog some snacks for the long cross-country drive we were about to embark on. When I kept noticing small things I didn't want to get dinged on by my landlord, I ran it by him, he looked at the area (stairwell, closet, and another bedroom that wasn't included in the original quote), and gave me a fair price to do the job right now. I was very impressed! I kept making his day longer and longer by requesting more work from him and his team and they kept working. I understand they are getting paid but was impressed with his professional ability to adapt and press until the work was accomplished. The walk through the following day went great and as I said, my landlord went from being a doubter (because I didn't go with her guy and maybe get money out of me) to now using him on her other properties! I would use David Murphy and his team again and I would reccommend them to anyone in the central Illinois area looking to have quality, affordable, painting done for their residence or business. "

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts
Prevent freeze damage during cold IL winters by letting exterior wall faucets drip and opening under-sink cabinet doors. Address minor slow drains with a plunger or drain snake, and strictly avoid harsh chemical cleaners that damage older pipes. Test your sump pump manually before spring storms arrive. Always hire a licensed professional for major plumbing tasks, as state law prohibits unpermitted work.
Helpful?
In Olney, you will find a mix of solo professionals and small contractors handling residential plumbing. Because of the rural setting, most local professionals are generalists who manage everyday service, repair, and installation. For properties outside city limits, certified specialists handle private well pumps and septic systems. You must hire a certified managing professional for large projects requiring permits in IL to ensure everything meets state code.
Helpful?
Start by verifying your contractor holds an active IL state license, as homeowners cannot pull their own permits for major plumbing work. Schedule large projects outside of extreme winter cold snaps to prevent exposed pipes from freezing during water shutoffs. For spring projects, proactively inspect sewer lines and sump pumps before heavy rainfall arrives. Always confirm your professional follows state-specific codes rather than national guidelines.
Helpful?
Older homes in Olney require updates to aging galvanized steel supply pipes and cast iron drain lines. You will also need regular plumbing repairs for water heaters and fixture valves due to heavy mineral scale buildup from hard water. During winter, pipes in uninsulated crawl spaces and non-frost-proof outdoor hose bibs are highly vulnerable to freezing. Spring rains consistently trigger sump pump failures and sewer line root intrusions.
Helpful?
Keep pipe insulation on hand to protect exposed lines in crawl spaces and unheated garages during freezing Olney winters. Because local water has high mineral content, stock basic cleaning supplies designed to remove hard water scale from plumbing fixtures like aerators and showerheads. You should also keep a plunger and a drain snake ready to address minor clogs. Always know exactly where your main water shut-off valve is located.
