"Chris underdelivered. I hired him based on his Angie rating and Certified Pro badge. Chris bid on replacing a section of sidewalk, installing a stone path, and pouring two concrete pads: one 13 ;x23; pad and the other 19'x30' (change order to 21 x36 ). Chris is pleasant and works hard. His bid was the highest, but I support small businesses. The large pad ended up 21 ;x35 ; (a foot (*21 sqft*) less than agreed and paid) and spalling in large areas. It has not been a month since it was poured, and the pad has yet to be used. I will have to epoxy once I can afford it. In response to the pictures, Chris texted, That is the spot up front we were trying to smooth up with the wet leftovers. Kinda figured that might happen. The concrete is fiberglass just a low spot there. He said he would protect the retaining wall against spillage. Many red-colored wall caps are now stained gray and must be cleaned or replaced. Lessons learned."

"He was hired to convert a brand new furnace that was natural gas over to propane. He put the wrong orifices in and burnt up the heat exchange and destroyed the furnace. We verified with another company that he did indeed install the wrong orifices that destroyed the furnace thus making the warranty for the original furnace null and void. He is not answering our calls after finding out that we wanted to be reimbursed for the new furnace that had to be purchased."

"We had to reschedule my radon mitigation system install a couple of times, but Chase was super easy to work with on this, and still the job was finished less than two weeks after first contact. He found a way to do the job in the least disruptive way possible, and I appreciate that. The area was tidied up afterwards. The system has been up and running for over a week and I've seen an immediate improvement, with measured levels in my home down from an average of 8.3 pCi/l to an average of 0.38.

FAQs for plumbing and heating service projects in Roach, MO

The average cost to install a new water heater is around $1,300, but you can expect to pay between $875 and $1,750, depending on the kind of water heater, the size of the unit, and the professional chosen to complete the work. Tankless water heaters can push your price higher, as installation is more complicated, with prices as high as $3,500. The location and accessibility of your water heater will play a role in the project cost, as those sitting in tight spaces like a crawl space will drive up your labor costs.
