Tom Drexler Plumbing, Air & Electric was founded in 1982 by 4th generation Master Plumber, Tom Drexler. We are now one the area's largest home service provider. We offer plumbing, heating and cooling, indoor air quality, electrical, and other home services. Our highly qualified & expertly trained employees can help with any home repair services you may need.

"I typically do not leave reviews, but my experience with Tom Drexler Plumbing was so poor that I feel compelled to share it in hopes of preventing others from wasting their time and money. I initially contacted the company to address a leaking faucet in a spare bathroom. I was given a vague appointment window of 8 AM to 5 PM and informed that if I didn’t answer a call prior to their arrival, the technician would not show up. When the technician arrived, he spent time criticizing the company’s hiring practices rather than focusing on the repair. He determined that a full tub and shower replacement was needed, quoting over $1,000. The work could not be done the same day, requiring me to schedule another appointment. The technician arrived late and took the entire day to complete the job, spending a significant portion of time sitting on my staircase visibly exhausted. The installation was subpar—both the faucet and showerhead were protruding nearly two inches from the wall, and the showerhead was visibly crooked. The faucet and showerhead were protruding so far out they couldn't even be caulked. My wife documented the issues with photos. She sent them to me after the tech left. I immediately called Tom Drexler, informed them of the subpar work, and requested a different technician to correct the poor workmanship. A new technician arrived the following week and made the necessary adjustments. However, within four days of using the shower, a leak developed in the ceiling of the kitchen below, and our toilet began leaking from the base when flushed—suggesting possible plumbing pressure or blockage issues. I contacted the company again and scheduled yet another appointment. Despite being given the same 8 AM to 5 PM time frame, no one showed up, and I had to follow up myself to learn the technician wasn’t coming. Eventually, another technician did visit and claimed the ceiling leak was due to "residual water" and dismissed the toilet issue. When the ceiling stain continued to grow, I called again and requested a supervisor. The supervisor came a week later, concluded that the issue wasn’t related to their work, and left without offering any solutions. Altogether, I had to take four days off work to accommodate this series of visits. I now need to hire another plumber from a different company to resolve the ongoing leak. Based on my experience, I cannot in good conscience recommend Tom Drexler Plumbing. The quality of work, communication, and overall customer service were consistently poor throughout the entire process."

With 9 locations across 8 states, Tri-State is always ready to serve you.

"It was pretty rocky. At first. Several appoints made by Tri-State no one ever showed up.Crew showed up to install the Generator before the site survey and did not have necessary equipment or cooperation of Electric or gas company nor call before you dig had been notified. I called Tri-State to warn them the call before dig had never been preformed. They said they'd take care of it, did not happen until right before installation crew came back the second time. The first time they were here they could not have installed the generator even had they had all the parts because none of the utilities had been marked. Finally after about three months the Generac was installed and working. I had several questions that I could never get answered by calling Tri-State. One of the installation team had to come back a couple of weeks later to replace a damaged part and he answered all my questions. The guys who installed the Generac were great, the problem is your guys operation center and call center as far as I can see do not communicate very well. Anyway the generator has worked fine in several power outages this spring. I am happy right now but I live in dread something goes wrong and I have to call Tri-State for help."

Since 1953, it has been our mission to take the worry out of water, and to help our customers rid their homes of airborne contaminants. We offer home water softener systems, drinking water filtration systems, whole house air cleaner systems, problem-solving water filtration systems, and many other premium products.

"If I could give this company negative stars I would. We were assigned this company when we purchased our Rain Soft water filtration system. We called multiple times when our unit was displaying a "No Salt" code, when it had salt. It took over two months and a handful of calls to the company to get someone out here. When they finally did, they took less then five minutes to look at the unit, charges $150 to "service" the unit, which they didn't do. They looked at the unit and said it was running fine, they did not test the quality of the water to confirm it was actually doing its job or open the unit up. And when they left, they didn't realize our windows were open and proceeded to say "that f*cker, didn't put salt in it" The most unprofessional experience I have ever had. Stay away from this company."

My wife & I started Bibelhauser Home's in 2003, as we were buying properties & fixing them up renting them out. Since then we have branched out and started Bibelhauser Home's Remodel Division. My goal for Remodel division is to provide great service & a settled mind to home owners that need work done around their home. Rather new gutters, new windows, new doors, ceramic tile, bathroom remodels, foundation repairs, vinyl siding, deck repairs, painting, drywall, plumbing& electrical. We also do what I like to call the handy man list, if you have a lot of smaller jobs right us a list & we charge by the hour. We are fully insured, and we stand behind our work! On all jobs, their is a 90 day warranty on labor for all work proformed. What do we charge? You ask Well unlike most companies I have a very low over head, whitch allows me to keep my pricing very reasonable; For most jobs I charge $45 hr for labor Most window installs $125 Most interial doors $100 Most external doors $200 Attic ladders as low as $150 Gutter guards $5 ft including material & labor We offer so much more, than what my fingers can type. And we do not mark up material. Most of the material we use comes from home depo or lowe's , so keep your eyes out for coupons & sales. For windows, siding & exterial doors I have a whole sale account with Norrandx. Just think of the saving! It is my goal to earn your buisness, and to give you the best price possible. If you need any work done just give me a call, I'm Ricky Bibelhauser co-owner of Bibelhauser Home's Remodel Division (812)987-2332

"VERY, VERY disappointed in Bibelhauser Remodeling - hired to do several small projects, NONE of which were done to my satisfaction, but he received full payment for everything! #1. Fireplace cabinet - asked to build a small cabinet on fireplace to hold wood and TV modem, DVD, etc. He built a cabinet but it was too big - didn't fit and he took it back, sent him drawing to revise - paid $425 - NEVER received! #2 - Bar cabinet - asked to build a bar cabinet to enclose wine frig on 1 side & beer frig on other with smaller bar cabinet in between - located behind my couch & wanted it lower than the couch to add granite top - when he delivered it, I said it was too tall - he said he could cut it down a few inches - NEVER done - paid $675! #3 - Installation of pocket door - I provided door & frame - charged $350 to install & another $750 to replace drywall ("quoted" price included labor & materials) - he wanted to charge another $125 for trim material - why would I hire someone to replace a door and not expect trim and baseboard to be included - the trim was also installed VERY poorly - I will have to hire another contractor to redo this job that he has been paid over $1,000 to do. #4. Charged $180 for a gallon of paint that he took back with him to redo cabinet #1 - that I have never received as well as metal brackets that were not needed/used. He said he would return them to Menards where he bought them. Additionally, he did not use the right paint to match existing trim in my home and the wood quality/finish of the bar cabinet is rough and the paint job uneven. I have contacted him several times to refund $425 (#1 cabinet never received!) $180 (paint & brackets not used) and redo bar cabinet #2 (cut down so I can have another contractor put granite piece on top. He refuses to refund money I paid for projects I did not receive and has not responded to my request to correct the bar cabinet's height. Would NOT hire him again - does not stand by the 90 day promise to guarantee his work. I spent more than $3,000 with Bibelhauser Remodeling on these projects and am NOT HAPPY WITH ANY OF THEM!!!"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes possible to install a water softener yourself, but it’s usually better to hire a water softener professional to get the job done. Water softeners involve plumbing and electrical work, which usually require permits and a certified expert to sign off on the work. Not only is it dangerous to work with these utility lines, but it’s also not legal in many areas. Plus, improper installation or system sizing might not fix your hard water issue and could lead to an increased risk of leaks, fires, and other property damage. 

A lower-end water softener would cost around $900, not including installation. Each home has different requirements, water hardness, and number of inhabitants, so there’s a huge range in pricing—$600 to over $6,000. The average water softener repair bill is around $500, meaning it’s a much better option to repair any issues and only replace your softener if absolutely necessary. 

Because it’s been through the water cycle, evaporating and becoming slightly acidic thanks to dissolved carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, rainwater tends to be naturally soft compared to groundwater, which has just been in contact with limestone. However, the natural hardness level of water always depends on where you are and other factors.

If your ‘do isn’t doing what you want it to do despite using good hair care products, hard water might be to blame. Since hard water can’t rinse soap off as well as soft water can, your hair might grow limp because of the shampoo and conditioner residue that’s left behind. If you color your hair, you might see it fade more quickly or even turn a different shade as the dye reacts with the minerals in the water. You might also experience an itchy scalp, thanks to the dryness that comes from bathing in the hard water.

The best way to soften hard water in the shower is with a water softening system. These whole-home softeners help remove minerals from the water as it enters your home. If you’re looking for a more affordable, shower-specific solution, install a water-softening showerhead to filter water as it’s coming out. With a water softening solution in place, you may find a reduction in mineral deposits as well as cleaner-feeling hair and skin.
