I had tried to tighten a nut myself but it got worse. I was setting my alarm all night to get up and dump the pan that was catching the water. He came in and did the same thing I had done but knew more than I did and fixed it within seconds. It turned out to be a small fix and a much smaller price than it should have been. I would call them again.
The woman on the phone was very pleasant in setting up the appointment ahead of time. However, she did not mention that there would be a minimum charge of $150.00 just to show up at our door. And their ad in Angie's List does not mention a minimum charge like other plumbers do.
The service man was pleasant also and he showed up right on time. I explained that the cold water to our washing machine was flowing very minimally. He explained that there are catch screens in the input feeds to the washing machine for both cold water and hot water. He checked both and spent about five minutes cleaning the cold water screen off; it had mineral and iron deposits from our well. Then the bad news: $150.00 please. I know Montana tradesmen are notorious for charging a lot because of the distances involved in doing business in sparsely settled Montana, but this really hit me. But since I hadn't asked ahead of time, I paid. But I will never use Flo-Rite again; way, way, way too expensive for what they provide. For about 10 minutes of work I got charged $150.00.
Not happy! Not happy.
Also a criticism of Angie's List. This is the second time I have had a highly rated provider of services (first an air conditioning/heating servicer and now a plumber, who are less than good. Find Consumer's Checkbook and other non-profit consumer organizations to be more reliable.
Of course, they just left fifteen minutes ago, and it's possible that the tub will leak tomorrow or next week or next month, but for now, it looks good. The leak is fixed, and they assured me that if it continued to leak they'd be happy to re-repair it.
I'd recommend this company.
