Had custom countertops made by Rabb and Howe. They contracted Bedell plumbing to install the sink. I couldn't be happier. Pat arrived during the time frame that was stated. He took one look and said it should take about and hour. He did the work, was friendly and it took him a little more than an hour to complete the job. I would highly recommen Bedell to anyone in need of plumbing work.

Description of Work: It was an emergency situation, the water line on the top of my water heater busted, spaying water all over my basement, I could not stop the water. I called Bedell Plumbing; I received them from Angie’s List monthly publication. He was able to walk me through getting the water shut off over the phone, and sent someone to fix my water heater within 2-3 hrs.

Work went fine but the plumber left us with a significant amount of clear silicone cleanup. If you've ever had to try to remove that from anywhere, you know how difficult it is. Overall, the job was done well. i just wish Pat had been a little more careful in applying his bead of caulk, and a little more careful in cleaning it up once the sink was set.
Description of Work: We purchased a new kitchen sink, deposal, dishwasher and faucets. Bedell quoted us a flat $500 for the installation job which was right in line with other quotes.

Had an inspection due for pending sale of piece of property and bath tub drain would not drain. I called Angie's List and told them location of property and who might be good. Was given 3 names. Bedell was great! They were there within the hour of calling and got the job done with a professional plumber. Easy to work with, explained what he would be doing,the cost, etc. - even cleaned out the tub when finished! Never had that happen before. Would definitely recommend them and use them again

I had an issue with a Culligan Water Softner that had stop working. Since I have a home warranty service that covers the softner I opened a claim and was provide with Bedell Plumbing as the company to contact. They were very polite and I was able to get on their schedule quickly. FYI, for the warranty there is a $100 deductible that is required. Repair cost, that are covered under the warrant, are paid to the plumber by the warranty company so I was only expecting to pay $100. The person arrived when stated and spent about 15minutes investigating the issue which included checking the water fill line in the brine tank and poking the salt in the tank to make sure it was not forming a salt bridge. He also, test the water for softness, which I knew would turn up as hard. The plumber's diagnosis was that solar salt was dirty with sediment and was possibly clogging the tank. He quoted me a price of $50 to empty and clean the brine tank. I had checked the owners manual and I was aware that it is ok to use Solar salt so I know that the probably cause was incorrect, so I declined to have the tank cleaned out. As a follow-up, I contact Culligan and their repairman replaced a few bad parts on the main unit which fixed the problem. I also asked him about the solar salt and he confirmed the brand and type I had bought would work just fine and in fact he said works better than the pellets. My main issue is that the probably cause was incorrect and seems like pure speculation which made me doubt their expertise. I would have preferred being told they had no clue and that I'd be better off contact Culligan.
Description of Work: Check the water softner and determine why it was not working.

Hms is your warranty company. They have procedures we follow to the letter to find water softener problems. We did just that. Our tech on the job wanted to help you not waste your money by first making sure your softener was not bridged, your warranty company does not cover this type of condition Once that is done we then go to next test....In this case the softener is old and had many issues we recommend that your softener be replaced by hms and you called to have it repaired by another company.....??? thanks Jay...

Punctual. Professional. A young guy named Patrick?...he was awesome. He went above and beyond what I expected. Number 1.... I live north in the country and it is not easy to get contractors to come out. Number 2.... I am a single female and it was nice to get a REAL plumber who was not afraid of getting dirty. Number 3.... I was impressed that he offered/bothered to clean up in the crawl. I would call for Patrick again in a heartbeat. He was worth every penny.
Description of Work: Called about a leaky faucet. fixed in 10 minutes. So I mentioned a slow flushing toilet. He calls me to the bathroom and shows how the original installed (builder) failed to seal pipes and flooring seal. He went to crawl and checked out things....Sprayed where fluids got thru unsealed pipe....did some cleanup. also fixed quickly.

On the day of service, since it could not be completed due to lack of equipment, we were assured that the plumber would be at our home on the third day with the possibility of maybe the second day. Day Two: Company left a message on our cell phone. We returned the call and left a message on their answering machine, but we never received a return call from the company. Day three: WE called to ask where we were on the schdule for the day. Response was, "I will try to get there today." At 3:00 PM we received a call. He stated, "We will not be able to get there today."He asked to reschedule for next week.I was told they had tried to reach us all day the day before. I had only received one phone call which I returned within the hour and left a message. At this point we told the company to cancel our service call. The person that called began to argue and blame us. Their unresponsiveness, lack of caring, and disregard for fixing our problem in a timely manner was unbelievable. After three days without a sink and use of the dishwasher, we found this to be a totally unacceptable solution from this company. Not only did our plumbing problem not get fixed, but we would have been without the use of our sink & dishwasher for a total of SIX days before being fixed by this company. We again went to Angie's List and selected another plumbing company who arrived in an hour and fixed our problem in 45 minutes. The price for fixing our problem was $130 compared to the original company's price of $450. Also, the price for replacing the sump pump, pit & gravel was $1,000 from Company #2 and $1,850 from the original company.
Description of Work: Plumber "attempted to unclog kitchen drain, & was unable to do so because of back to back fittings. Drain needs cut out & replaced" We were given estimates for the replacement of the drain pipe, etc. Also were given an estimate to replace our sump pump, nstall the sump pump & dig a pit set in gravel in crawl space. Plumber stated that he did not have a what he needed with him and would therefore not be able to fix our problem on this day. Plumber also stated that prices on water heaters would be going up and he suggested we think about replacing ours, which is not what we had called about in the first place. Plumber stated he would not be able to return the next day and would "try" to come out the third day. The service call was $105.00.

I am bitterly dissappointed and want my money back because they did fix the problem.
Description of Work: I have a rental property where my drains were clogging up. I was out of town when they went to the property to diagnos the problem so they called me and gave me an estimate of $260. They did the work they told me they were going to do. I called them when I got home and asked what I what I owed them, and they gave me a higher price then they gave me in the estimate, however I paid it. Three days later the drains were blocked up again, I thought there was no way they could already be clogged because I have one lady living in the rental. Bedell gave me an estimate of $4200 to make the repair. I had my son in law go to the property and snake the drain and it has been working fine ever since.

Bedell Plumbing was prompt, efficient, and professional. I called this morning and they told me they could have a plumber here later this morning - and they were! When I called, I told them a toilet was leaking upstairs and that we thought it was the wax seal that had cracked, but we weren't sure. The person I spoke with was able to give me an idea of the cost for fixing what I described, but said it could be more depending on what the plumber would find. The plumber arrived later this morning, just as they said he would and was able to fix the problem. He replaced the wax seal on the toilet, which had cracked. He used two wax seals because he saw that the height of the floor surface was slightly higher than what could be sealed with just one wax seal. He was courteous and knowledgeable and cleaned up the area when he was done. The bill for the service was on the low end of the estimate the office person had mentioned. I was extremely pleased with Bedell Plumbing's service and staff and will certainly call them again with any plumbing issue. Thank you, thank you!
Description of Work: The plumber pulled the toilet in an upstairs bathroom and replaced the wax seal which had cracked. He used two seals instead of one because of the slight difference in the height of the floor surface around the toilet.

I called Bedell Plumbing on Friday morning to estimate the cost of and/or repair an upstairs bath tub that had leaked causing minor water damage to the first floor ceiling. The individual who answered the phone said they could have someone at our home within an hour which surprised me. The plumber did arrive within the hour, asked to see the problem. He allowed me to explain the damage to the ceiling and my suspicion as to the cause. He tested the tub faucet and spout. He indicated it appeared to be a corroded spout allowing water to roll back along the spount, behind the tub and down the wall to the ceiling below. He offered to use a spout I had purchased or one the company could provide. I opted to use one the plumbing company provided which increased my bill accordingly. He installed the new spout, caulked around it and caulked around the bath tub faucet handle as well. It took him close to an hour to complete. I was pleased with his professional approach, his willingness to listen to my take on the probelm, his timeliness, the reasonable price and most of all the result. We have used the shower several time in the weekend that followed with no additional leakage observed.

They did arrive on time and things were going fine. The person that came out was nice, but started going south when he started trying to clean the pipe. He was having trouble getting through my pipes and didn't seem to really know a whole lot about the task at hand. He was poking around for about 15 minutes or so, then said I had a collapsed pipe. He said he would then have to give an estimate to dig up the yard and replace the whole pipe. I decided to get a second opinion and call a different company to come look at the pipes. I decided to not go through with the excavation. The other company had no issues with cleaning out the pipes, unlike Bedell. UPDATED RESPONSE 4/5/13: The other company did come out and ran a camera through the line. I was dissatisfied because Bedell would not compromise in refunding the charge on top of the service charge which I was willing to pay for their time. There was not a collapsed line like Bedell said. There were roots growing through the joints of the tile. The other company cleaned out the drain and cleared out the roots. I tried to compromise with Bedell but they were not willing to give back any money towards the job they did not complete. Based on this I still feel like they deserve a F rating.
Description of Work: I called them out to my daughter's house to clean the drain due to sewage backup.

We at Bedell Plumbing Inc would pay for a camera inspection at this home to show that we did find a broken down drain in need of replacement . Excavation is the only way to correct the pipe problem at this house. The other company will have to come back to clean this drain very often until its replaced. The F rating is not needed do to the condition of the under ground piping....Its not a choice you will replace this drain.. Thanks Jay T Bedell ...
