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."

"I hired Phillips Waterproofing and Concrete for a sump pump and moisture panel installation, and it was a complete nightmare. The work was sloppy and unprofessional: the corners of the moisture panels were left curved, concrete wasn?t poured to the walls, and the sump pump pipe was installed in front of my kitchen cabinets with only a thin, choppy, unfinished pour. I paid over $2,000 for them to stain the concrete, but they never completed the job despite multiple scheduled appointments. They now ignore calls and messages entirely, and both the owner, Kevin Phillips, and son Dylan, have full voicemail boxes. To make matters worse, the original problem?backflow in my half bath?was not resolved, and my home flooded again just weeks after their installation. Because of their negligence, I?ve been forced to spend additional money pursuing legal action to get my money returned. They took $11,000 from me, left my home in an unusable state, and provided zero accountability."

Fayette Heating & Air was founded in 1971 with one man, one truck and $500. From the start, Al Melrose was committed to providing quality equipment with integrity and outstanding customer service. As a second generation family-owned business, those same values lead our company today. Fayette Heating & Air has been recognized nationally, regionally and locally for both business practices and its community efforts.

"BUYER BEWARE!!!!! This company is all about getting their $99.00 for the estimate, selling you an annual service fee and then quoting exuberant prices. Not really sure if they really care about doing the actual plumbing work. Recently gave me an estimate for a job of $500. Learned later after from another plumber that what they wanted to do was actually not correct AND should have cost no more than $250. Had I used Fayette Heating / H20 Mastero, I would have paid $600 for a job done incorrectly. At least the 99.00 I paid kept me from damaging my house further. There are a lot of reputable plumbers in Lexington. Suggest you look elsewhere"

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts

In Lexington, most plumbing work—including new installations, major repairs, and water heater replacements—requires a plumbing permit from the Division of Building Inspection. Only a licensed plumbing contractor can apply, and both rough-in and final plumbing inspections are mandatory. For detailed requirements, refer to the Division of Building Inspection or the Kentucky Plumbing Code to ensure your project meets all local regulations.

Helpful?

For plumbing projects in Lexington, PEX is recommended for water supply lines due to its flexibility and freeze resistance, which is important in Kentucky's variable climate. PVC is commonly used for drain and waste lines, while copper is valued for durability in older homes. If your property has galvanized steel or cast iron pipes, consider replacement to improve water quality and meet current plumbing code standards.

Helpful?

In Lexington, be wary of plumbing contractors who offer unusually low quotes, request cash-only payments, or lack a verifiable local address. Always request written estimates, proof of insurance, and clear warranty terms. Reliable professionals will provide references, answer questions about the plumbing work, and ensure compliance with the Kentucky Plumbing Code and local inspection requirements.

Helpful?

In Lexington, hidden costs during plumbing work can include permit fees, code compliance upgrades, and expenses related to accessing pipes behind finished walls or floors. Additional costs may arise if water damage is discovered or if repairs are needed due to the region's clay soil affecting underground plumbing. Consult your plumbing contractor and the Division of Building Inspection for guidance on potential project challenges.

Helpful?

In Lexington, always shut off the main water supply before starting plumbing work and confirm the location of your shut-off valve. Use GFCI outlets in wet areas to prevent electrical hazards, and install carbon monoxide detectors near gas water heaters. If your home was built before 1986, check for lead pipes or solder, as required by the Kentucky Plumbing Code, and insulate pipes to prevent winter freezing.
