He said that he would come out the next day after completing other water heater installations. He arrived at about 3:00 PM and determined that the defective part was non-standard and would have to be ordered. I decided to replace the heater as soon as possible rather than wait for the part. Tom recommended that he provide a heater from a plumbing supply house rather than a home improvement center because of better quality and I agreed. Tom arrived promptly on Monday morning with his son and installed the new heater in about 3 hours. He replaced some of the plumbing that was done poorly, and also rerouted a drain line through a wall to the outside of my house. He explained how and when to drain the heater to prevent sediment buildup. Tom's workmanship was clearly superior to the plumber's who installed the heater six years ago. This "affordable" provider also charged $300 more than Tom. I will call Tom for all future plumbing work and recommend him to anyone I know who needs a plumber.

This while I was at work trying to figure out a new computer system upgrade. I tried getting a hold of some plumbers I'd used before and no one could help. Then I got Ti's number from Angies list and gave him a call. By 4pm he was out there (Forest Grove) and had the job scoped out. He told me what needed to be done and best and worst case scenarios. He got us lined up with an electrician because the house had to be regrounded after they put in the pex pipe. He helped my tenants figure out how to get water in order to get by until the crew got there. By noon Thursday everything was done fine, just as he said it would be.

I had a much better service experience at Lowe's but it came down to a significant price difference between the two companies. I woke to a broken hot water heater and instantly began doing online searches for replacement water heaters, pricing and installations. Home Depot touts same day installation if you call by noon. I called around 9:30am to several companies to ensure that they had the heaters in stock and could indeed deliver today. I called Home Depot 3 times because each time I was transferred to the water heater department no one picked up. In between I had gotten through to a competitor. They were extremely helpful in giving me pricing, calling to confirm delivery that day etc. However when they proactively called back to let me know when the entered all the info in their system the installation was over $100 more than they had quoted me. That is when I called Home Depot back a 3rd time. I reached a gentleman in the water heater department. I asked if they had heaters, he said yes they had them in stock. When I asked about delivery and cost he said, and quot;oh gee, um, I don't know, I really wouldn't have any ideaand quot; He said that if I logged into the website there was an 800 number I could call to find that information out. He couldn't even be bothered to give me the number. Being desperate, I looked up and called the 800 number. The installation group, Fast Water Heaters, I want to stress was great! They could not get the heater installed the same day, despite Home Depots claim of same day installation if ordered by noon (it was now 10:15am). But they were highly rated on Angie's list and even honored the Angie's List coupon on the order. They (Fast) set up an appt for the next day. The installer was about an hour late due to a company meeting, but called and kept me informed. He was courteous and friendly. He wasn't pushy with some upgrade offers and cleaned up his work afterwards. I highly recommend Fast for your plumbing and water heater needs, but Home Depot needs to work on their customer service!

The prior fridge didn'd have the water and ice maker in the door. We thought we would have to run a new line under the house but when I mentioned that my water heater was just outside an adjacent wall, Bryan figured out a way to get the water from that incoming line to the fridge. Minimal plumbing parts and time! Great job and great price. I had to call him back in January because a the valve that should shut off my outside water during winter wasn't shutting off properly and water was continually running out the open faucets. He came the next day and installed a new valve with a draining switch so I don't have to worry about water left in my lines. I never worry that the work is substandard or will totally break the bank.

That was great. I left him to his work and later in the day when I returned home, Sergio was gone and all the removed tiles and drywall were placed into 2 piles outside my front door in the middle of the walk way. I thought this was strange beings it's winter and I know what a mess wet drywall makes. We had decided to replace the bath tub so Sergio was contacted again by the plumber and asked to come and cut out another quarter sheet section of drywall. That was on Thursday. Friday the 16th Sergio returned to install all new drywall and a water barrier in the shower. I bought all the tile, the grout and the caulking. Sergio worked all day replacing the tiles in the shower. Towards the end of the tile, he suggested we put a smaller tile trim around the edges. We actually wanted the trim to be 1/2 tile trim. Apparently Sergio had already put up his tile cutting saw away for the day and he told me he couldn't do 1/2 tiles because he had no way to cut the tiles. The mess outside has now been snowed on. Needless to say we never got any tile trim. I told Sergio that we intended to put the shower doors back in. Well in the process of removing the doors, the track was so badly bent that we couldn't use them again. So now if I want shower doors, I now have to purchase a new one. I was mad and had forgot to mention the mess left outside. My husband said sometimes contractors do clean up at the end of the job. Ok no big deal. Saturday the 16th came and Sergio came back to do the caulking around the tub. I was presented a bill for more money than he quoted me. I asked him why and he said it was because he had to come back over and cut out that little bit of extra drywall. I confronted him about the mess he left outside. Sergio told me that everything on the walk way was from my bathroom and if I wanted him to clean up the mess he left that he would have to charge me even more. We'll I have been left to clean up. I can only put so much in my trash can at a time so I still have a mess. The walk way is obviously old and has several cracks and dips in it and now has nasty drywall crap which because it's winter won't be able to really be cleaned up til spring and then it will be in my yard. I don't want my pets drinking this nasty stuff out of the puddles. I paid Sergio what we had originally agreed on against my better judgement. I asked him if he always left the clean up to the customer and he said yes unless a prior agreement was made to include clean up which costs more. The tile looks great aside the fact that the grout was not sealed. Im not happy for the fact that I still today have clean up I am doing for Sergio."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/or/the-dalles/sergios-construction-reviews-6421910.htm"},"position":6},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"2 Dogs Plumbing & Drain Cleaning","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"OR","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Leslie K."},"reviewBody":"I was very pleased with the work the plumber did.

Plumbing Handymen questions, answered by experts
In some situations, you may be able to try an alternative to repiping your bathroom. If you’re dealing with substantial clogs, for instance, you may be able to have a plumber come out and clear the clog. But if you’ve tried other repairs and are still dealing with issues, you can opt for epoxy pipe lining as an alternative to repiping. This method coats the inside of the pipe with an epoxy to seal holes or cracks.
Your baseboard heater usually should have a bleeder valve, but if not, look for air vents that bleed out the air automatically. If you cannot locate the bleeder valve on your radiator and it doesn’t feel warm even when the heat is turned on, call in a pro to have it inspected.
It is possible for a slab leak to cause a sinkhole, but it would have to be a particularly serious leak. A slab leak causes the land under your home to erode and if there is enough movement depressions will form in the ground, potentially causing a sinkhole.
If the toilet is overflowing but there’s no clog, that’s a sign that the issue is deeper in the system, and plunging may not help. A blockage in your home’s plumbing, the plumbing vent, or even city sewer lines can cause toilets to overflow. The issue could also be the toilet itself if the filler float isn’t set to the correct height or if parts are damaged or worn out.
Most jurisdictions legally require a backflow preventer on your drip irrigation system. Even if you live in a place with less strict laws, installing one is a great idea. If you’re planning to use fertilizers or other chemical additives in your garden, a backflow preventer helps ensure those substances stay outside of your home’s water supply. Depending on the complexity of your irrigation system, you may be able to install one for under $100.
