The Stang plumber did a good job. I would have given Stang Plumbing an overall rating of A except for one thing. They charged extra to use a auger tool to unplug a commode. It was a tool that they already had. In my view, this tool was used in ordinary plumbing, and did not warrant an extra charge.

Initial phone call - dispatch returned my call within an hour (or a little over an hr; not bad since the initial call was on a Sunday, late afternoon). A couple of other service companies we tried either did not answer or could only talk with someone during norm biz hrs. The call experience with one of Stang's plumbers/installers was great (questions & concerns about the current condition of the old one) answered. Was able to schedule an installation for the next day (Monday) hoping the old tank would hold up overnight. We indicated that we turned off the old hot water heater to prevent further leaking & basically went one night without hot water. They showed up on time on Monday as scheduled. We had some questions about the different tank options, which were answered after reviewing our current gas line/layout (the installer was very courteous, patient & competent about handling our questions), After weighing tankless options, we went with the conventional gas water tank route due to the explained upgrade costs of the tankless option (we would not see a return on that investment any time soon). We were a little disappointed that Stang only offered one brand (A.O. Smith) with very limited warranty (6 yrs parts, 1 yr labor) for the price (warranty gets a C grade & price a B grade). There were mixed product reviews on this tank upon my own research - thus hard to draw conclusions. The installer did explain some positive features (like theOne thing I can say definitively is the quality of the installation and plumbing work & adjustments were TOP NOTCH & clean. We also took advantage of Angie's list discounts (one we purchased as an offering for Stang - buy a $40 off for $20 AND a separate $15 off for any Angie's List service, both of which Stang honored with no question. Every little bit helps! Top notch service!
Description of Work: Replaced our 20 yr-old 75 gal Rheem gas water heater with a new A.O. Smith one (model FCG 75 300). The old one started leaking - so it was time.

We had a toilet that was backed up and overflowing - down into the kitchen! Since I believed that this qualified as a true emergency, I called as many plumbers as I could on Angie's list. Stang was the third one I called and they sent someone within a couple of hours to try and fix the problem. Ultimately, we needed to buy a new toilet. We bought the toilet through Stang and they came the following Monday exactly when they said they would come. The work was done efficiently and well. Everything was cleaned up. I would recommend the plumbers at Stang very highly. I would also like to say that the secretary/receptionist was very helpful in setting up the appointments.
Description of Work: We had a clogged toilet that was overflowing. The plumber who came tried to unclog the toilet. He worked very hard for about 20 minutes using a very impressive looking tool - I believe it is called a closet auger. This didn't work. He then removed the toilet from its base and continued to try and clear the toilet -when it became clear that the obstruction was in the toilet itself. This still didn't resolve the problem. It became obvious that I would need a new toilet altogether. The following Monday a plumber came from Stang to take away the old toilet and install the new one.

They are excellent and they are on Angie's List. I have used them for years. They are all very professional and have always done the job. I have never had anything break that they have fixed and have always been pleased with their work. They always show up within their window of time, which is important to me. They put booties on over their shoes so they don't drag anything over my floor. They are very careful and considerate when they are in my house. The service people are very knowledgeable. I had an emergency several years ago on a Friday afternoon in the spring or summer. They showed up, brought as many people as they needed and stayed until after midnight to help clean up. They are wonderful.

The plumber arrived slightly earlier than the appointment which was great so he cou ld finish earlier. He replaced the sump pump and corrected the method of attachment to the pipe going outside so if we have to replace the pump again possibly we can do it ourselves. He then cleaned the line going from the kitchen to main collection line outisde the house. This made the kitchen drain run much better than it had in years.

Was pleased with work, otherwise would not have called them back. I opened up floor in basement so they could access drain pipe; not sure what cost would have been if I had not done the prep work. Work replacing water heater and shower control fixture was for a rental property I own. They showed up on time and did work professionally. I have no questions about referring them to others.
Description of Work: $3,500--$4,000 (3 different jobs) 1) Identify reason for back-up in basement bathroom toilet and fixed by replacing section of drain pipe. 2) Replaced water heater (gas-fired). 3) Replaced shower fixtures and brought up to code.

I telephoned on a Monday and they came the next morning -- on time. The plumbers advised me on what approach to take with the job I had called about and answered all my questions.
Description of Work: The plumbers were very prompt, honest in their assessment of the job to be done, and professional. We needed two bathroom tub/shower faucet leaks repaired. The plumber said the parts were too old and they could not guarantee the repairs and they recommended complete replacement which would cost significantly more. We opted to wait until we get the bathrooms renovated by a different contractor. The plumber then cautioned about using a general contractor to do plumbing work and said they would get back to us with an overall "job price" (vs. per hour rate) to work with our contractor. Since it already cost me $179 to have them just walk in the door, I had them replace the faucet in the laundry room (40 years old) and replace the flapper in 2 toilets. At the end of the hour, they had only replaced the one flapper but I didn't want to be charged additionally for their time, so I just said 'forget it' on the second flapper. The new faucet in the laundry room seems a bit wobbly when turning on and off but it does work.

Great job! It tured out to be the garbage disposal. He was quick and took time to explain what he had done so that I could potentially help myself if it happebed again. He arrived 20 min late. There apparently was a communication issue between office staff and the plumber. This was not really a big issue for me, however, upon arrival the plumber mentioned he had been circling for 20 Min trying to find a parking place. This was unnecessary, because I had left specific instructions with the office scheduler for the plumber to call me when he arrived so that I could give him a parking pass and let him into the private parking area. This is exactly what he ended up doing, but could have saved himself 20 min and arrived as scheduled.
Description of Work: Sink and dishwasher were stopped up.

Response from Stang Plumbing
We did advise our plumber about the parking permit. While he was circling he saw signs that stated no parking on Tuesdays until 9am because of a school zone. He misunderstood and thought that he could not park in that area regardless. I will make sure next time, no matter what, the plumber follows the instructions provided so that this does not happen again. Thank you for your time and feedback. We value our customers and strive to make sure we keep long term relationships with our customers.

Ask them for the pre-arrival phone call just to be sure you're prepared. The plumber seemed very well trained and qualified, and suggested a repair rather than a more costly faucet replacement--and it seems to work just fine now. No issues--they had offered to come the day after I called but it was impossible for me, so they gave me first call on the next business day and made it there. Just be prepared for the bill. They did give an estimate over the phone.
Description of Work: The plumber arrived a few minutes early (with no prior phone call, as had been promised) but immediately went to work--putting on shoe covers, turning off the main cut-off, etc. Within minutes he had diagnosed the problem, gone to his truck for needed parts, and explained exactly what had occurred--as well as giving me useful information for future maintenance. After doing the repair and having me test the faucet, he petted my dog while I paid the bill. The firm is somewhat expensive, but very responsive and easily booked.

I apologize for the miscommunication. Our first call of the day is an 8am arrival. We generally do not call 1/2 hour ahead for this call since it is a set arrival time. For our calls later in the day with a 2-hour window of arrival we do call when the plumber is on the way, usually 20 - 30 minutes ahead of their arrival. We do appreciate your feedback and value your opinion please call us for all future plumbing needs.

Called Stang Plumbing on a wednesday, they scheduled the job for the next day, in the afternoon. Mentioned the hourly rate. Told me the plumber would call 30 mins before. He called at the begining of the time window they gave me and showed up soon after. Work was done quickly, no issues. Plumber was a nice guy, explained the job and cleaned up where he worked. Gave us a break on the valves he repaced as well. Would definetly use them again.

I have used them for years. They are very expensive but they are amazing. They always send the same guy to my house; which I think is smart for a company to do but I have never encountered another company that does it. The guy that comes out knows what he is doing and explains everything. When I go online and check the things that he has told me, he is right; even if it doesn't sound quite right, he is right. I like it that he knows his stuff; even kind of obscure things.

We called Stang first thing on a Monday morning. Their answering service is very bright and cheerful and obviously passes the information right along because promptly when the office opened at 7am, we got a call and a plumber scheduled for 8:30. Rob showed up around 9:15 quickly disregarded what we thought was a hot water problem and helped us to locate where water was running out of the house. He cut two holes in search of the problem, but the third was a charm. The problem was a hose bib that was left open then sided over. The shut off was located just behind the main water shut off for the house, but not labeled as such. Why is there not a place on Angie's List to review the previous owner of a house? Rob quickly cut off the old hose bib and capped the pipe so even if we turned that dial again, it wouldn't result in the same problem. He then went on to consult with us on two sinks we were installing, sold us the connectors we needed and gave us direction for the other materials we should use and how to correctly use them including providing a few pro tips. He offered to install them but was not at all pushy when we indicated we wanted to give it a shot, but would call him if we missed. He said it was an easy job and we shouldn't have a problem. Rob is nothing short of awesome and we definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional and incredibly helpful plumber. I have to disagree with the reviews on price for Stang. I would happily pay the hourly rate for someone I trust is doing the job I need him to do, particularly when it comes to water in my house. We also, with Rob's advice, managed to install a faucet and drain in one of our bathrooms and it looks pretty good, in our opinion.
Description of Work: We called Stang (repeat customers) because we thought we had a problem with our hot water heater. Once the plumber arrived, he identified what was the sound of running water and helped us locate the sare on the outside of the house where we had been watering the neighborhood all night long. He located the problem and fixed it.

DO ask the price before you commit to a visit - Stang is just too expensive.
Description of Work: Stang folks are good but some of the staff that come to your house are much better than others. The last experience was not good. When I recently called about another service and asked the price they were way too expensive so I chose another provider that was a good 30% less and did a good job. The other provider is Blinkhorn Plumbing in Kensington, MD

The hourly rate of $170 is completely ridiculous. It should come with legal advice. And when you charge that much hour, you shouldn't mark up the parts for extra profit. I went with them for the $20 for $40 of work coupon . Should have known that was just the bait for the switch. I didn't know that $40 would only cover 15 minutes of work.

Rob was nothing short of wonderful! We are new to our home and with that newness comes many discoveries, not always pleasant. During our floor install we found out the water shut offs under one of the bathroom sinks were seized. It was the sink we wanted to remove of course. When on the second morning of the install we arrived at the home to find the sink leaking, we realized now wasn't the time to wait so we called Stang around seven in the morning and Rob was there by 10. He fixed the sink in question, checked the other bathrooms (also seized) and replaced those. He walked with us through the house, answered our questions (including the all important...where do I go when the water breaks lose?), and pointed out areas of concern including a sink that was so rusted underneath that he recommended against its use. He also pointed out unused pipes where we didn't want them so we added removal of those to his list that day. Rob was knowledgeable, more than happy to share that knowledge with us and definitely gave us options for the items we found while he was at the house. He not only fixed what we knew was a problem, but he has probably saved us a great deal of money and a giant headache by pointing out the areas of the house that need attention. Once we are ready to replace fixtures, we will certainly be calling Stang and requesting another visit.
Description of Work: Replaced a variety of siezed water shutoff valves, identified the shutoffs in the house, inspected various leaks and removed and capped unused pipes.

I chose Stang because of the great reviews that they have on The List. I noticed that they had a 'B' grade for price, but I am willing to pay a little more for quality work that I know will be right the first time. They showed up on time and completed the job in a timely fashion. The technican was very nice and answered any questions that I had about what was gong to be done. I also recommned looking on The List for coupons onceyou schedule them for service. I was able to get a $20 off my first service coupon. We will definitely be using Stang in the future.
Description of Work: Main water shutoff to the house replaced. The price listed above is approximate. I cannot honestly remember the exact amount, but know it was in the low $200 range.
