One of the old hot water heaters was left in the attic because we were told it would be too costly to remove from the attic and leaving it would not be a problem. When the job was finished Mr. Brown came and personally inspected the job. We did not take bids on the job. We used Robert Brown Plumbing because he was a friend of my son's. Therefore, I do not know if the price was out of line or not. I have since been told by someone that took bids on their project that they did not use Robert Brown Plumbing because his bid was too high. We are retired folks on a fixed income and IF the need for extensive plumbing happens again I probably would take bids. If I was independently wealthy and money was not an issue I'd for sure call Robert Brown Plumbing. You know the old saying, "You get what you pay for." That certainly may be the case here.

We got estimates from a number of plumbers and John's was near the lower end. He sent his estimate for the work right away and was able to start relatively quickly. John's group tore out the old horizontal pipes and put in the new copper pipes in one day. He also brought the water heater up to code and made sure everything was working correctly. He tested the sinks and the showers. The pressure improved somewhat but not significantly so he went through and checked everything again. He could hear water rushing from the pipe leading out of the house and since we had a new buffalo box put in the city was called out to check to see if there was a leak. To make a long story short the leak was found to be right outside the house and not at the buffalo box. John gave us the name of a group (Kerr Mechanical) that would locate the leak and add new copper pipes from the house to the city water supply. Once the leak was taken care of the water pressure was fantastic. Both John Baethke and Kerr Mechanical did an outstanding job and I would hire them both again if needed."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/il/chicago/john-baethke-and-son-plumbing-reviews-99445.htm"},"position":5},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Exxon - Shreveport","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"LA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Jim S."},"reviewBody":"The service manager has taken care of me in multiple occasions.

When I called Bobby L. Green's office, not only was the office person extremely rude, but she said (and I quote) "this is a gray area. the pumber did not know it was a dead pipe.". They offered NOTHING. And they still billed me for the plumber services, at $150 an hour dut to it being a weekend. Plus I ended up with a $3000 cost to me to repair the water damage THEY created.
I understand that accidents/mistakes happen. However, the manner in which they chose to handle says alot about company. Zero customer service. Zero pride in thier work. And no ownership of their employee's mistakes. I would never recommend them."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/la/shreveport/bobby-l-greene-plumbing-and-heating-co-inc-reviews-6275672.htm"},"position":7},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Apex Painting & Remodeling","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"LA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"John K."},"reviewBody":"Overall it did not go well.

Heating Oil Service reviews from real Angi homeowners in Cotton Valley, LA
They installed a hot water heater that went out within 6 weeks. The plumber said it was their fault because it was not flushed and installed properly but still charged me for repairs because it had been more than 30 days.

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts
Yes, many providers offer organic or eco-friendly treatments. Confirm availability with your contractor.
Geothermal systems provide energy efficiency, lower utility bills, and long-term sustainability with minimal environmental impact.
Costs depend on system age, type, labor, and whether part replacements are necessary.
Leaks, poor airflow, reduced efficiency, and loop blockages are common problems requiring service.
You need to service an HVAC system about twice per year, with a service including an inspection and basic maintenance. It’s best to schedule maintenance in the spring (after the furnace has been running and before the AC kicks on) and in the fall (after the AC worked hard all summer and before winter’s first chill arrives).
Regular HVAC services will keep the system working as efficiently as possible, saving you money on utilities and larger repairs. HVAC maintenance costs around $250 per visit, while bigger repairs from forgotten upkeep could cost thousands.
