They told me wrong cartridge to order and wanted to charge me again to complete the job once I received the right one. So I paid and never had my job completed. They were rude unprofessional and not honest .
Response from WICKERSHEIM & SONS
"The first technician was there performing other work she had requested. At the end of the job, she asked the technician to look at the shower as a favor to see what could be done. The technician removed the trim so the cartridge was visibly accessible. We did not pull the cartridge for fear of damaging it more without having a new cartridge there to back us up. This specific cartridge was not one that our supply house carries, but it is one that Home Depot carries. The technician explained to the customer in order for us to investigate and search for the replacement part, we would need to remove the cartridge and go to Home Depot. The customer was also informed that the technician would be charging for all his time to do so which she then said she did not want to pay for. That's when she stated she would order the cartridge herself. All my technician did was remove the trim so the cartridge was visible. Never once did we tell her what part number to order because we did not know ourselves. The second technician then arrived once she called us back. This is when we found out the part she ordered was wrong. She paid our guy the service fee he requested, then proceeded to call the office to complain and stated she would just simply cancel the check when she was informed there was no refund."

Technician was able to arrive the same day of the call.  He was professional, explained what he was going to do, discussed options and gave me a verbal price estimate.  He performed service left the area the way he found int.

I had a cracked main sewer pipe that was causing a leak. They were able to correctly diagnose the problem and the location behind the walls. They advised me that I could save a lot of money if I opened the walls myself or had a handyman do it. I did as they advised and they were able to remove the cast iron pipe from a very tight location and replace it with a PVC pipe. They gave me a quote prior to starting the job and charged me what they quoted even though I signed a release saying that the job could cost more.
I have used them before and was not disappointed. Their prices are very fair and the quality of work is excellent.

THEY DO A REALLY GOOD JOB. THEY SHOWED UP WHEN THEY SAID THAT THEY WOULD. I THOUGHT THAT THE PRICE WAS FAIR. I AM HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS. THEY ARE ALSO RELIABLE AND HARDWORKING.
