New special order unit came in very quickly, and installation was scheduled for the next day. Old unit was removed and hauled away. New unit was professionally installed with attention to detail not present on the old unit. No damage to walls or floors, and installers used extra measures to prevent outside dirt, snow, and water from being tracked into the house. Very happy with the entire purchase/installation experience.
Description of Work: I needed to replace a 24 year old Bradford White 50 gallon high recovery propane water heater. This water heater is a special order unit. New unit chosen is a State Water Heater model GS6 50 HRVHSL.

Description of Work: I had a leak from my upstairs bathroom flowing into the ceiling of my basement. I had 3 other companies out that told me I needed to rip out the floor of the upstairs bathroom or take out the cooling ductwork and ceiling in the basement to reach it. All totaling thousands. Jason from Brinkers came out and listened to what I had to say, did his own inspection and fixed the leak on the spot. He cut a hole in the drywall and was able to easily access the pipe without ripping out anything!! I would trust this company. He was honest, efficient and saved me an unnecessary home owners claim.

Description of Work: They replaced my toilet seal. While they came when they said they would, completed the work in 25 minutes and cleaned up well after themselves, they are expensive.

Called the company on Saturday and an appointment as set for Monday @ 12:00 P.M. The technician called to say he could be there at 11:00 A.M. he reviewed the job and provided an estimation of the work before starting. The job was completed in less than 45 minutes and was done to satisfaction. The technician was very courteous and professional. Also gave me an additional 10% discount as a prior costumer.
Description of Work: Repaired cracked external sump waste pipe.

Our experience with them went very well. We were away for a while during the winter and our son came over and found that the sump pump was not working. We called the plumber; he came out and did the work. When they came back earlier this year it was in great shape so unfortunately it came to be a lot of detail. Our son told us about the problem, then we called, they came and fixed it. We saw it after it was finished. They seem to do an excellent job because they fixed the problem and their price was good. They told us what they were doing while they were doing it. It all worked out well. They did the work when they said they were going to do it. They got back to us when it was all done and we were happy with it. They fixed it and it stays fixed. They came in and did it within the time period they said they would be available to do it. As I said they kept in contact with us.
Description of Work: Brinker's Plumbing was out to replace our sump pump in the basement.

Tom was fantastic. He didn't stop just because the water started to drain. He kept working until he was satisfied that the clog was completely eliminated.
Description of Work: Snaked out washing machine drain stand pipe. It was full of sediment and lint, causing overflow onto my laundry room floor.

In mid January, we went to their showroom and picked out the faucets, mirrors, toilet and grab bar we wanted installed. One of the mirrors was on back order. We wanted to continue our part of the remodeling, so we decided to have the other items installed in late February. It turned out that the wrong tank for the toilet was delivered to Brinkers and had to be reordered, so the toilet could not be installed on that date. In mid March, the toilet and mirrors were finally installed. Also, the grab bar was not installed properly and that was corrected at that time.
Description of Work: Minor bathroom remodeling. Replaced 2 sink faucets, 2 mirrors, a toilet and shut off valve, and added a grab bar.

Recently purchased home. Discovered water leak from half bath toilet and full bath toilet. Thomas diagnosed both leaks. Appearance that leaks may have been long term. He looked at both toilets and also noted they were in possible need of repair or replacement. Talked through possible options and gave advice (repair or replace toilets, what to do about floor boards). Thomas was up front with all costs and work needed. Nothing was done until final decision was made. We ended up just making sure the leaking was stopped. After he was finished, I also asked Thomas to take a look at the sump pump. It was diagnosed as not working. Got quote for replacement.
Description of Work: Diagnose leak in half bath. Reset and leveled toilet in half bath. Diagnose leak in full bath. Repaired leak from feed line to toilet in full bath.

Brinker's returned my call for a quote promptly (unlike the company whose name was on the side of the original water heater being replaced). Their quote was 10% lower than their competitors, and all items were quoted separately in their entirety on the phone. The final bill matched the quote given. The service man arrived right on time. He was courteous, put down a paper runner to ensure that no carpet damage was done, and cleaned up after completing the installation. I was very happy with the service and would recommend Brinker's to others.
Description of Work: I got a quote, and they installed a new 50 gallon direct vent water heater (one of two in a parallel water system) in the basement.
