I didn?t realize until later that the backup was also dead, so only had the main pump replaced by another company (thinking it was still under warranty). After realizing that the backup sump pump was indeed dead, I could not get a quote to simply have it replaced. Instead, other companies wanted to replace it with a water-based backup sump pump which does not require a battery. Besides the fact that I did not care for the information I was finding out about these water-based units, I simply could not afford the $2,000 price tag. Of the several plumbng companies that I called, Frook plumbing was the only one willing to look at my situation and try to give me an estimate for work that I could afford. On January 16, 2015, Steve came out to assess the problem and answer my questions. I also asked Steve to fix the toilet in the master halfbath that had been ghost flushing for months. I had not realized exactly what was happening until the first few weeks in December when it was flushing on its own several times each hour. I turned the water to the toilet off to prevent further leaking and higher water bills in December, unsure when I?d be able to have it fixed. Steve was very polite, answering my questions without making me feel like a dolt for asking. He fixed the toilet and gave me some advice to check the old battery on my backup sump pump to make sure it was not the problem instead of the pump itself. Over the next few weeks, I determined that the battery was holding a charge, but was still unsure how long it would last since it was quite old. I tried to find out what other backup sump pumps were within my budget by researching on the internet. What I found raised more questions, so I called Frook Plumbing again. I scheduled another appointment with Steve to see what he could do. Upon arrival, Steve called his supplier and was able to get the same (but newer) model backup sump pump, with a new marine gel battery and a digital trickle charger readout for half the cost of the water-based system. Steve left to retrieve the parts and returned later that same morning, replacing the old equipment and making sure that it was installed and working properly before cleaning up. The cost wiped out my savings, but at least I didn?t have to take out a loan and try to make payments on my already stressed budget. I was very happy with the responsiveness of Frook Plumbing and Steve?s courteous service.
I've had Shoner out for 3 different jobs now....I didn't want to have a plumber out, but it was necessary. I did some research and ultimately hired Shoner, and it was a great decision. Their prices were very fair, and they did excellent work. The plumber who has completed all of our jobs...

Learning curve for me. I researched water heaters and then discovered that plumbing firms generally install only one brand. Couldn't find a recommended plumber that would install the brand I chose. Went with this highly recommended plumbing firm even though they only install Bradford White...

They were unable to solve plumbing issue (which another plumber did) Also left a leaking pipe in basement after installation. They are very expensive, but do not provide the level of service and expertise on would expect at that price range.
They were fast and professional. I've had no problems with the plumbing.

"This company was recommended to us by several people. Unfortunately, over about 1.5 years of having them perform various services on our home (replacing the furnace, working on the in-ground heating and also repairing some drains in the garage) we are left worse off and thousands of dollars spent with poor outcomes. The furnace was installed improperly which caused an issue when the A/C was used the following spring which resulted in water damage to our basement. This went on multiple times and had to call the company out multiple times before they finally corrected it. The drains that were "fixed" still leak water. The in-ground heating was repaired but they did not have a correct valve part. Once this was finally re-installed the person installing it did not know how to work the system or show us how to use it. We are now calling out someone again on a Saturday to try and figure out the problem. Not a good company"

FAQs for affordable plumbing projects in East Lansing, MI
Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
It’s possible to snake minor drain clogs yourself, provided they sit within a foot or two of the drain itself, but it’s usually best to hire a professional plumber regardless. Even experienced DIYers have a high chance of accidentally pushing the clog further into the drain using a drain snake or another tool, so hiring a plumber is the ideal course of action. A professional plumber can use camera equipment to locate and identify the clog, and remove the entire blockage to fix your issue permanently.
Typically, plumbing repairs cost about $325 per job but can range from $175 to $4,000 or more. Simple fixes, such as a toilet repair, will be less expensive at around $150 to $400. However, if you have a pipe that has burst, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000 or more.
The project that needs to be completed, the size of your home, and the type of plumbing pipes you have can all impact the final cost. External factors such as supply chain issues and shortage of materials all play a part in how much this repair might be.
The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
