Fine. I had full confidence in Mark Berg and his advice. He said I could have someone else do the burner cleaning and thermocouple replacement, but they needed done now. It had been four years since it was last replaced and the life was about four years for a thermocouple, plus the burners had not been cleaned for four years and were dirty.
Description of Work: Duplex unit would not heat; heat turned off before it was 68 degrees, the legal requirement for rental property in St. Paul. I installed a new Honeywell thermostat, but it made no difference-problem continued. Mark Berg, 36 years experience, checked the baseboard heating system. He also bled the expansion tank which had too much water-"waterlogged". The heat at the rental unit was then inspected by Mark Berg. He took the new Honeywell thermostat's front face off and studied it. He diagnosed the problem as one of two tiny on the back of the face not being set correctly. He reset the switch to work correctly for a h9ot water/warm water heating system.swithcesthe Heating system checked in rental unit of duplex. Temperature going up when he left and was at 64 degrees. However, problem persisted. I had renters use a heater I supplied them to get it to 68 degrees. The City inspector removed the Condemned placard-the notice if problem was not fixed, no one could live there. I called Rascher Plumbing and Heating again, stating problem continued according to tenants. I double-checked temperature with two independent thermometers I bought at Menards and both thermometers read 64 degrees at 5 feet off the floor, so they matched the new Honeywell thermostat reading that the room temperature was 64 degrees I scheduled Rascher Plumbing to come out and replace the thermocouple because Mark Berg told me it was corroded and to clean the main furnace burners because they were dirty. When I called one of the tenants about the appointment time, , I found out from him that he had installed a new Honeywell thermostat himself one year ago. That thermostat was identical to the new one I had just installed in the past week. I had studied the back of that thermostat the night before and had set the tiny switch just as Mark Berg had done. Whend Mark Berg arrives, I will tell him that the "old" i year thermostat had been set incorrectly by the tenant when he put it in in the past year, probably in March, 2017 at the end of the heating season. End of review for right now until Mark Berg shows up this afternoon to do the above additional work.

The office manager Dave was always very responsive to my questions and referred me to Ferguson's to pick out part. The technician, Jason was punctual and very respectful. He certainly knew what he was doing Even though the work in one of the bathrooms was quite challenging he patiently worked through it and had the job completed.

Jason arrived within the time frame we had been told. He called when he was on the way. The service was excellent--technically competent and a very nice person.
Description of Work: Have hired them many times in the past. This time the job was to install a garbage disposal and two in-counter soap dispensers for the kitchen sink plus tighten the faucet and replace the intake hose. They have been one of the few companies that could work on our hot water heating system in the past.

Excellent! Never charged us anything for our consultation of services needed.
Description of Work: Had a leaking hose on kitchen sink, and called them to replace and service sink. Got me in touch with Kohler customer service to get a replacement part for free. Took 30 days to get from Kohler. We decided to do some remodeling on our kitchen, which will include replacing entire sink and fixtures so we decided we didn't need to repair the sink for a few weeks. That we would just wait until kitchen remodel starts. Would have absolutely called Rascher back for the service. They were so helpful and so responsive to our needs.

Beautifully. We just had a new hardwood floors put in, and the water while not while not a large amount, pooled on a small area of our beautiful floor. I called them Wednesday morning and they were out here by 9 o'clock Thursday morning. Damage to our floor was prevented. We have had other plumbers that I have not been completely satisfied with. My husband and I have been in this house for 27 years and now we are fortunate to have a plumbing company we can 100% rely on. They worked efficiently, they completed all of the work in less time than I thought it would take. Jason and Jake are true professionals. I will hire them again without hesitation and recommend them to everyone I know. Rascher Plumbing and heating also installs central air conditioning and heating units. We will definitely use them for these services. Our 27-year-old heating and air-conditioning unit has never been replaced. It is reassuring to a found a company we can have 100% confidence in. Thank you Jason, Jake and Rascher Plumbing and Heating!
Description of Work: We had a water leak that We thought was coming from the upstairs bathrooms. The water was pooling on the main floor next to the wall enclosing the pvc waste stack. Jason and Jake QUICKLY found the leak that was caused by a tiny nail hole in the waste stack that occurred when the baseboard was naked to the wall in the main floor. They replaced that section of the waste stack with minimal invasion to the wallboard. They also replaced the upstairs bathtub overflow drain and floor drain system. The overflow drain rubber gasket had worn out and the plate screws had rested in the holes of the PVC tube and I could not get them out I had put duct tape over the overflow drain because that's where I had thought the water leak was coming from. They also checked my kitchen sink faucet which is loose. Jason advised me that it is wearing out but is not leaking and does not need to be replaced immediately. I will pick out a new faucet and they can install it for me.

Everyone I was in contact with at Rascher was helpful and courteous. They were very quick to get me an estimate, which was very accurate. The work was done on time, and the plumber (Jason) was friendly. When a couple of unforeseen issues came up, which were explained fully with possible solutions laid out. They seem to really put the customer first. Rascher will be my go-to for a plumber.

The key guy, I don't know if he's the owner or just the manager, he goes out of his way to take time to explain what was going on and what was done. He is always good and will either email me or call me before the work starts and when it ends. He's very hands on with communication. They are now my go-to plumber.

I called for repairs at approximately 1000 am..I told them that a pipe was leaking and that the basement floor was covered in water, I was told to shut off a valve to the "house side" of the water meter and wrap a towel around the leak. I was told that they had a lot of calls but that they would certainly be out to repair the leak today, about 1215 Jason called and said he would be over in about 20 minutes. He handled the removal of all unnecessary and leaking pipes and replacing those pipes with copper tubing and also replaced a defective shut off valve. I mention the copper tubing because it was delivered by another employee while Jason was working on the problem. I thought this was very efficient . He finished the repair and restored water to the house in a couple of hours. Jason was efficient, courteous and very polite throughout the entire process I would continue to use Rascher Plumbing in the future..
