Replaced the toilet tank plumbing. The technician was here less than 4 hours after my call to them. Service technician was polite, respectful and complete the work in a very short time. I’ll call them again for any plumbing issues. Customer service/dispatch commuted timely and clearly with me at all times.

He did good work. But afterwards I realized, I no longer have an external water spigot. When he did the repair I got water to my home but not to outside. I was charged $700.00 for $30.00 worth of pex pipe and fitting. I went online later and realized 200 ft of pex pipe and fittings $120.00. Here's a link [Link removed]

I hate the amount of money you have to spend for someone to come to your home and it takes them very little time but they're the ones that have to maintain their equipment and store it and cover any damage that might happen working on your home, plus get covered in all the gunk and nasty things that come with the job. Plus they know what they are doing and how to do it right. Iv ignored my downspouts for way to long and Iv tried everything to unblock them and they fix it with in three hours and I learn so much from they're guy that I had no clue to. It was money well spent. No Regrets. Except for waiting so long to call them.

Make sure you are quoted a price before beginning work. HomeAdvisor was way off and a reasonable price was negotiated.
