WHEN I CALLED, I LET THEM KNOW THAT I DID NOT HAVE AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. THEY SCHEDULED ME FOR THE NEXT DAY. THEY CALLED THE NEXT AFTERNOON TO SAY THEY WERE RUNNING BEHIND AND PROBABLY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET TO US THAT DAY. HOWEVER, THE PLUMBER ASSIGNED TO US WAS ABLE TO GET TO OUR HOUSE THAT AFTERNOON. HE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND PERFORMED ALL THE WORK QUICKLY AND EFFICIENTLY.
Description of Work: HAD THEM SNAKE TWO TOILETS AND FIX A DRAIN PIPE UNDER THE KITCHEN SINK. THE PLUMBER FIXED THE ROUTING OF THE DRAIN ON THE DISHWASHER TO RUN THROUGH THE GARBAGE DISPOSAL, AS WELL AS REPLACING THE ENTIRE KITCHEN SINK DRAIN.

HE SPENT ABOUT 15 MINUTES WORKING ON THE KITCHEN DRAIN. HE SAID THAT THE DRAIN PROBLEM COULD BE EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR AND HE DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO WORK ON IT THAT DAY ANYWAY. SO HE CHARGED ME TO FIX THE SINK. HE WASN'T SURE WHERE THE WATER CAME FROM AND HE DIDN'T SEEM INTERESTED IN REPAIRING THE DRAIN.

ROBY'S PLUMBING SERVICE SAYS THEY GIVE FREE ESTIMATES, BUT APPARENTLY NOT IF THEY KNOW THAT YOU ARE BUYING A HOUSE AND THEY ARE OUT BASED ON AN INSPECTIONS FINDINGS. THEY CAME OUT TO THE HOUSE TURNED ON THE WATER AND LOOKED AT THE PIPES WHICH TOOK LESS THAN 15 MINUTES AND THEN CHARGED $84. THEY THEN GAVE A QUOTE THAT WAS TWICE AS MUCH AS OTHER REPUTABLE PLUMBERS THAT WE HAD QUOTE THE JOB. THE OTHER QUOTES WERE FREE. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND USING ROBY'S FOR ANY PLUMBING NEEDS.

KEVIN, THE PLUMBER, WAS ON TIME AND CAME THE SAME DAY I CALLED. THE FAUCET HE REPLACED IS VERY NICE, BUT I SORT OF FELT LIKE I WAS OVER-CHARGED.
Description of Work: REPLACED A FAUCET AND SPRAYER ON MY LAUNDRY ROOM WASH TUB. THE ONE I HAD WOULD NOT STOP DRIPPING, AND THE SALESMAN SAID IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND NOT REPAIRED. I BOUGHT THE FAUCET THAT HE HAD ON HIS TRUCK.

THE TECHNICIAN WAS ON TIME AND VERY HELPFUL IN EXPLAINING THE PROBLEM. HE HAD MANY TYPES OF WATER PRESSURE TANKS I COULD CHOOSE DEPENDING ON THE TYPE OF WATER PRESSURE I WANTED. AFTER I SELECTED WHAT I WANTED HE CALLED HIS OFFICE AND LESS THAN AN HOUR THE NEW WATER PRESSURE TANK WAS DELIVERED TO MY HOME. THE TECHNICIAN INSTALLED IT IMMEDIATELY. I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE WORK AND NEATNESS THAT THE TECHNICIAN PROVIDED.
Description of Work: THE WATER PRESSURE IN MY HOME WAS EXTREMELY LOW. THE TECHNICIAN INDICATED THE PROBLEM WAS A VERY OLD WATER PRESSURE TANK THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

IT WAS A RELATIVELY PAINLESS EXPERIENCE BECAUSE THEY WERE SO KNOWLEDGEABLE AND PROFESSIONAL IN HOW THEY PRESENTED ALL THE INFORMATION TO US AND DID THE JOB. I LOOKED ON ANGIE'S LIST RECOMMENDATIONS AND CHOSE THEM BECAUSE THERE WERE OTHERS WHO HAD HAD SUMP PUMP WORK DONE BY THEM. THEY SEEMED TO HAVE THE MOST EXPERIENCE FOR THIS TYPE OF WORK. IT WAS CERTAINLY THE RIGHT DECISION. WHEN IT IS RAINING LIKE CRAZY THIS SPRING I'M GOING TO FEEL VERY SECURE THAT OUR BASEMENT WILL BE DRY. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, AND CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THEIR SERVICE, AND DONOVAN.
Description of Work: OUR AUXILIARY SUMP PUMP WENT OUT. WE HAD ROBY'S COME TO GIVE AN EVALUATION AND ESTIMATE. THEY CAME ON TIME,CALLED TO KEEP US UPDATED UNTIL THE PUMP WAS IN AND THEN RETURNED RIGHT AWAY TO INSTALL IT. WE HAD DONOVAN BOTH TIMES AND HE WAS ABSOLUTELY A GREAT GUY. HE UNDERSTOOD THE PROBLEM, GAVE THREE OPTIONS AT THE TIME OF THE ESTIMATE, AND ALSO HIS PROFESSIONAL OPINION. IT WAS EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT THAT WAS GETTING INSTALLED, BUT WELL WORTH WHATEVER IT WOULD COST TO KEEP THE BASEMENT FROM FLOODING. ALTHOUGH IT WAS NOT WONDERFUL TO SPEND ALMOST $1600 ON SOMETHING IN THE BASEMENT THAT YOU CAN'T SEE, WE FELT THAT THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT. IT GIVES US PEACE OF MIND AND FROM ALL INDICATIONS THEY WILL STAND BEHIND THEIR WORK.

I HAD USED ROBY'S BEFORE AND HAD BEEN SATISFIED. WHEN I CALLED, I WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST BETWEEN $200-$300. WHEN THE PLUMBER ARRIVED, HE TOLD ME IT WOULD BE $400-$700 (REMEMBER, I HAD ALREADY BOUGHT THE PARTS!). AS A SINGLE FEMALE, I FEEL LIKE THEY TRIED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ME. WHEN I REFUSED THE SERVICE, THE PLUMBER LOOKED SURPRISED AND ASKED ME ''WELL, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?'' I TOLD HIM ''WELL, HIRE SOMEONE ELSE!''. I HIRED ANOTHER PLUMBER AND WAS VERY SATISFIED.
Description of Work: I REQUESTED AN ESTIMATE TO REPLACE TWO FAUCETS IN MY HOME. I HAD ALREADY PURCHASED THE FAUCETS. WHEN THE PLUMBER ARRIVED, HE TOLD ME THE FAUCETS WERE NOT QUALITY AND TRIED TO SELL ME FAUCETS THAT WERE VERY EXPENSIVE AND THAT I DID NOT NEED. THE FAUCETS I HAD PURCHASED WERE CHROME DELTA FAUCETS THAT HAD BEEN RECOMMENDED TO ME AT THE PLUMBING STORE.
