A+ Service, expertise and follow up. Tim came out to check water issues, identified the cause and it repaired in just over an hour. Jim from the office phoned with follow up regarding part I would need for future and informed me it would be less expensive for me to order. Class act and VERY trustworthy👍🏼 Brian / Columbus

He said there's no leak and I had somebody to fix it. He is just telling me that the reason is coming from the garbage disposal and he did not even check.

Response from Jack L Woods Plumbing Co Inc
Our service call was back in March, which may explain why the customer doesn’t remember it well. We keep written records of all service calls. Based on the location of the leaking water in the basement, as reported by the customer, our technician Casey ran water through all the connected plumbing fixtures and could not recreate a leak. Based on years of experience, Casey suspected the walk-in tub as the source. Some things cannot be tested without true usage, so he asked the customer to check for water escaping the tub seal shortly after taking a shower, and then let us know. He never told the customer that there was "no leak,” nor that the garbage disposal was the cause (to claim he said both is a contradictory assertion). We never heard back from the customer after that service call.

The tech showed up, looked at the unit for about 15 minutes, talked on the phone for another 10 minutes, then said he would have to order a part that would cost 95 dollars. The designer of the tank advised not to put more than 95 dollars into the tank, because after 7 years it was worthless. I call Jack Woods the next day and cancelled the ordering of the part. NO WORK was done at my house that day, but I received a bill for $228.00 which included "travel time" from the techs last job to my house. When I called Jack Plumbing and asked why I was charged 228.00 when NO WORK was done, they said " the Tech replaced 5.00 part. I told them I didn't think I should pay for something that was never done, the manager at the shop said he would send it to collections, then apologized and said he would NOT send the bill to collections. Two months later I received a bill from collections. So not only do they do horrible work, but they also charge you travel time AND will lie to you about the charges. I'M NOT PAYING IT DO NOT USE Jack Woods Plumbing

The premise of this review, that "no work" was done, is patently false, even if you accept everything else at face value (and you shouldn't). The customer asked for a service call because his Rinnai tankless water heater was not functioning correctly. We sent Tim, our tech most experienced with Rinnai. The problem was not apparent, and Tim proceeded to troubleshoot, as was his job. This included a 40-minute phone call with Rinnai technical service. The conclusion of the troubleshooting process was the need to replace the bypass value. Tim ordered the part from our Rinnai supplier. He also replaced the tankless water filter. Tim spent more than 1-1/2 hours working for this customer--not 25 minutes as claimed by [Member Name Removed] . Typical of most plumbers, we use a time-and-materials pricing model. Our service is the time our technicians spend on behalf of customers troubleshooting and fixing their plumbing issues, which may or may not include replacing parts and installing new fixtures or equipment. The time is priced based on hourly billing rates. One-way travel time is also included in the time fee, a common practice in plumbing, and many other service businesses involving travel to customer locations. Finally, we charge mark-up on parts and equipment we buy for customers; again, a common practice in nearly every service industry. Customers are free to discontinue our service before it's completed--perhaps to complete it themselves, after we've shown them what needs to be done. But they still need to pay for the services we've already performed.

Jack Woods plumbing is the most honest (no price gouging) plumbing company in the area. Three other highly rated companies quoted me prices ranging from $300-$400 dollars with a senior discount. Jack Woods charged $121 for the same work. I would recommend calling them before letting anyone else do your work. They are honest and resonably priced.

Great! The plumber who came to our house had 40+ years of experience. He knew exactly how to address our plumbing problems and even educated me on how to easily and simply test for toilet seal leaks and how to keep the kitchen drains and garbage disposal in better condition. I really appreciated that! He worked extra hard at unsticking the garbage disposal blades to save us the cost of purchasing a new one when ours was still in good condition. I felt he treated our house and our plumbing problems with as much care and thought as he would his own. But that's typical of the experience I've had with this company through about 15 years of using their services. They are exceptional!

I showed the plumber exactly where the leaking drain was above our kitchen stove, inside the stove exhaust hood. His comment was “I can’t work under there”. He then proceeded to cut large holes in our kitchen ceiling to supposedly find the source of the leak. After determining there was neither leak nor drain pipe there, he cut another section where I had originally indicated. He then determines that it can be fixed “under there” but will take “two guys”. He left. I then called Jack Woods and talked to Rex. I told Rex what had transpired and asked who was going to pay for fixing and painting our damaged ceiling. I told Rex that I expected them to cover that cost, within a few days I received an “estimate” for the cost of two plumbers to fix the leaking drain in the amount of $1067! I got another plumber’s estimate and got the drain fixed with “one guy” for less than $300. Now to add insult to injury, Jack Woods sent ME a bill for $94.00 for the original visit that destroyed my kitchen ceiling. My intention is to send Jack Woods a bill for cost to repair and painting of my ceiling. Rex was at least professional on the phone, the plumber they sent out was nothing short of arrogant.

Our technician made a mistake in cutting the first hole where he did. We told the customer we'd work with him to repair the ceiling, and we stand by that. The $300 price cited is clearly not for the same scope of work we recommended. Our estimate was for replacing rust and corrosion throughout the whole branch of plumbing, including material costs--a long-term, preventative solution, which may be viewed as cost effective, when you have to cut through a ceiling anyway.

First available appointment was 1 week out. On the day of the appointment, we got a call near the end of our appointment window (12-6) asking if we'd like to reschedule. After we said "no", they apparently subbed the work out to Eco Plumbers, who showed up that night and wanted up to $500 to do the work. I have a "For Sale" sign in my lawn -- did they suspect I was desperate? I got a different plumber in the next morning to do the job for much less money.

We have been searching for a work order for anything under your name (we do not have an address from Angi) and have found nothing. It is confusing because we never set a window of 12-6 (the latest window we ever have is 12-4 unless the job is scheduled for emergency service after hours), and never sub out work to anyone. We have found no evidence of ever having set up a service call for you. Could you provide additional details such as address, phone, and date of requested service? We would appreciate your help to follow up on this. Thanks.

We failed to follow through, as noted. Not an excuse, but the job had complexities we needed to research, then a vacation and incomplete internal communication by one of our people led to the break down. We've since reconnected with the customer and apologized.

We had a great experience with the company. Barry came out today and immediately found the problems we have had with pipe issues and running water. Another company told us we had "air" in our pipes. This was definitely not the issue. He was able to quickly locate and fix a few problems we had. He was very personable and even played with our dog. When we called we were told it would be about ten days so made the appointment since it wasn't an urgent issue. They called a few times to see if we were available because they had a cancellation and could get us in. They office called to let us know the window of time to expect them and then called back to let us know he was on his way. We are very pleased with the service we received and will use them again if we need to.

Contested Invoice from Jack L. Woods Plumbing, Company, Inc. By Sally Phillips on October 12, 2020 Synopsis of Incident At the beginning of October 2020, my kitchen faucet handle broke. I purchased a new kitchen faucet from Home Depot and decided to call my usual plumbing company (Jack Woods Plumbing) to remove the old faucet and install the new one. Let me just say that I have used Jack Woods Plumbing the entire time I have lived in my home (since circa August 2001) and had always been satisfied with their performance and pricing, that is, until this past Monday, October 12, 2020. The experience I had with the plumber that Jack Woods’ sent out was so horrible that I not only refuse to pay the exorbitant bill this technician left, but have also decided to change plumbing companies immediately. This “bad apple” was so rotten that his company has lost a loyal customer for good. According to the invoice, the plumber’s name is Tim. When Tim arrived at my home at approximately 3:00 p.m., I showed him to the kitchen sink and explained that I just needed for him to remove the old faucet and install the new one I had purchased. My expectation at this time is that Tim would be in and out in under 30 minutes since a faucet installation is an easy job and there was nothing else wrong. I then went out on my back patio with my daughter and our dogs and left my screen door open so that I could hear Tim if he needed anything. After a short time, I heard Tim screaming. I got up and rushed inside to see what the problem was (my daughter followed me). The ensuing sight was quite shocking. Water was spraying everywhere, flooding my kitchen, and Tim was yelling at us to “GO SHUT THE WATER OFF!!!!”. As I ran downstairs (all the while, Tim continued his caterwauling), I realized I did not remember where the main water valve was located and I yelled up to Tim that I did not remember. He rushed downstairs and got the water shut-off. To this moment, I have no earthly idea why Tim did not just shut off the supply located underneath the kitchen sink before he began the project. Once he came back into the kitchen, Tim informed me that he had broken the kitchen water line. Feeling frustrated by the sight of the water covering my kitchen floor, my daughter and I went back outside to wait on the back patio. After some time had passed, Tim came to the screen door and asked if I would come in and wait by the main water valve in the basement so that he could test his work. Once Tim and I descended to the basement and were standing in front of the main water valve, Tim turned and said to me, “I can’t believe you didn’t help me clean up the water.” Stunned, I replied, “Do you honestly expect me to clean up the mess that you made?!!” Tim responded, “Well, I would of thought that you would have helped to keep my time down so it wasn’t so expensive.” I then told him that I would have thought that he would have turned off the water before attempting to replace the faucet…to which he replied, “Oh no, you never turn the water off. I’ve been a plumber for 37 years….” I then told him that I thought he would also have had better manners than to come into a customer’s home and after breaking their water line and flooding their kitchen, proceed to scream at them to “TURN THE WATER OFF”. He continued to excuse his behavior by saying that he hadn’t “yelled” at us, he was just panicking. Furthermore, he blamed the line breaking on the fact that I have plastic pipes. Right before Tim left, he handed me an invoice for $218.75 (see attached). What’s more, I discovered standing water in my washroom (it sits right off the kitchen) and my pantry. The sitting water soaked a couple of loads of clothes I had in piles on the floor waiting to be washed and ruined a pair of suede shoes I had on the floor. Furthermore, the water was still shut off after he left which shows that he did not even test his work. Moreover, when I looked at the invoice, Tim misrepresented the amount of time he was on this job (he arrived at 3 pm and was gone by 4:25 pm); but more importantly, I should not be charged for his incompetence. In my opinion, you should be pay me for the time I had to put into cleaning up Tim’s mess, the shoes that were ruined, and putting up with your employee’s rude, insolent attitude.

We’re sorry that Ms. [Member Name Removed] had such a bad experience, and for this reason we did not charge her for installing the faucet. (Waiving charges is a management decision; the plumber on-site is required to leave a bill). Fortunately, no damage was done, because action was quickly taken once the pipe burst. This is why our plumber yelled “for” the water to be turned off (not “at” Ms. [Member Name Removed]). The CPVC pipe burst because it had become very brittle. It’s rare, but sometimes these things happen. It is not standard practice to shut off the main to install a faucet, as long as the stops under the sink are functional.

As usual, they did an excellent job. I had already purchased an Aquasana OptimH2O whole house water filter and a Phyn Plus Smart Water Assistant + Shutoff (automatically shuts off water main upon detecting a leak). They did the installation of these two devices into the water main. Jim did a superb job of installing not only a functional system, but also one that looks great. They are always my "go to" for plumbers -- have used them many times and regardless of the plumber they send out, have always been pleased with the process and the result. They offer a 10% senior discount on labor (but not parts). Note that they do not have a fixed amount trip charge like some, but they do start the labor clock when they call you as they are leaving their last job so you are paying for their travel time.
