We called after spotting a water stain on our kitchen ceiling. Dave arrived on the scene shortly after I phoned in about our issue. After taking a look and pinpointing the problem, he provided me with a rundown of what would be done along with a price. While working, Dave was very helpful in explaining the issue and how he would go about repairing it. Despite running into a couple of irregularities, he was able to think on his feet and provide a solution.

Upon moving into the home a month ago, we noticed the toilet was making an odd noise after flushing and during the tank fill. I also had some leaking water around the toilet area. I had originally scheduled another service provider for the next day when something came up at work. I called Roby's to see if they had an availability that afternoon and to my surprise they did. Dave arrived promptly after I received a call from the dispatch indicating he was in-route. Dave quickly identified that an internal component in the tank was bad causing the odd sound and due to the age of the toilet the defective component could not be replaced w/ modern items. Dave recommended toilet replacement and indicated that he had one in stock on his truck. I agreed to the replacement and Dave completed the toilet replacement on the spot. The entire experience was about 2 hours and I couldn't be more happy w/ the end result. Dave was knowledgeable, quick, and extremely professional. In addition, we determined that the possible leak did not originate from the toilet but overflow/splash from the shower and it simply pooled and collected near the toilet. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend Roby's Complete plumbing service.

They were there before time that I was told. Gave a very accurate estimate and did the work very quickly. Very impressed. My other first choice plumbing company would not have able to get to the house until Friday. I guess that they are now #2 and Roby's has become my 1st choice.

The drain was leaking. It was a rusted out section below the kitchen sink behind the plaster wall. The plumber removed a section and tested the line. It didn't leak, but it was clear the removed section was not all of the rusted part. Instead of removing more wall and plumbing, the plumber decided to bypass the vent to the roof and put in a studer valve. The larger straight run pipe in the basement was also replaced. The plumber cleaned out the drain below the basement floor multiple times to insure it was clear. The repair has been working fine. The hole in the wall is neat and not too big. We would have preferred a written estimate with our options shown. The reputation of the studer valve is not great. We might have chosen to have more of the pipe removed and maintained the original roof vent. There was time for the decision since the job was started on Monday and the return trip to complete it was Wednesday.
Description of Work: Replaced a large portion of the cast iron drain pipe coming from the kitchen sink.

The man was very nice, however he needed to replace the shower drain that had snapped off and we were unable to screw it closed to take a bath. The house is only 7 yrs old so things are not too old. The worker told me that they didn't make the part anymore and the only way to fix it would be to cut out a part of my wall to access the pipe to fix it. I asked if he was sure because everything is fairly new in the house. He assured me that it was the only way. He cut a whole in my wall and then he realized that the part wouldn't fit. He made a few calls and went to the hardware store and bought the part he needed. He said "sorry" that he didn't need to cut into the wall, but he didn't do drywall repairs. My drain is now fixed, but I have a big whole in my wall and they have no intention of repairing.

The plumber arrived on a Friday afternoon within 1 and 1/2 hours of my calling Robys. I felt this was very adequate for a situation that was not an emergency. They had established that I did not have multiple drains involved and that water was not flowing on the floor on the phone before we had arranged for the plumber to com to my home. We discussed the approximate costs involved and when I mentioned I had chosen the company through Angie's List they reminded me to print out the coupon they had. I liked this. I feel it is a mark of good faith when a company goes out of their way to alert you to discounts. The plumber listened to the methods I had already tried- which at least made me feel like less of an idiot, and said an auger was the last option. Thankfully that worked. I mentioned that I was looking for a new toilet since I have been having trouble with this model in both my bathrooms. He told me what his company offered and the price but in no way did he try to pressure me into buying it. Overall, he did a very nice, quick job and moved on. I wouldn't hesitate to use Robys again if this service call is indicative of their work.
Description of Work: Used an auger to unclog a clogged toilet.

I was having trouble with my house sewer backing up when I did laundry - usually tree roots. I've used Roby's before and have been very pleased. After repeated attempts to clear the line, the laundry still caused a back-up. Roby's said they did all they could with the equipment they have and referred me to Curt and Jerry's (also on Angie's List) for this type of problem. In spite of being here for over 30 minutes and running the line several times, they did not charge me for the visit! Excellent customer service!

I was very pleased and surprised by how quickly he got the job done. I would definitely recommend them.
Description of Work: I discovered our 10 year old waterheater leaking in the basement this morning. I called and someone was here about an hour later. Quick, friendly, professional. And they even hauled the old water heater up out of the basement for me. Installed the new water heater and were out of here in about 3 hours. And even though it always hurts a little to spend that much money unexpectedly, their prices are competitive.

lyhe follr to repair the leak
Description of Work: No service preformed. The gentleman that came never quoted a flat pricefor the service which was to cut intothe floor to repair the leak that had been pinpointed by another imaging company . He did quote a price per hour which I dont remember. They was not very friendly. They demanded Cash upon completion and wouldn't work with my insurance company. The guy acted as if he really didn't want to serve our needs. I will never deal with them, nor will I reccomend them to anyone,

It went great. Embarrassed to say, all he did was turned the faucet on quite high. He thinks it was just one of those things. However I have had recent water issues, and we agreed I would not do anything with the faucet until he arrived. I am doing some work on my house now. I will be getting a new sink and faucet. I will definitely be calling Roby's and Rick to do the install. I would recommend them to anyone.
Description of Work: This is the first time I have used this company. I called on Friday night because I had a faucet that made a strange noise, and then continued to run. Rick was the one that called me back. He was very friendly, and helped me not be so concerned. He put me on his schedule first thing Saturday to check it out.
