He did an adequate job on the bathroom work; as for replacing the washer in the faucet, the cost (more than $200 - it was an "emergency" he said) did not sit well since he hadn't bothered to inform us that he regarded it as an "emergency" before coming. I will not call on him again.
Description of Work: We used Mr. Deems twice: first to install a cabinet in our bathroom, and to repair the faucet in the laundry room.

I had two projects completed. 1. Moved plumbing in laundry room to accommodate a double washtub and stackable washer/dryer. This involved running new gas lines and moving water and waste lines. Ron offered good alternatives to our preconceived ideas of how to lay things out. We went with his suggestions and are very pleased. His work was very clean and professional looking. 2. Installed new water service to replace existing well water. Ron took care to walk through all the possible options ensuring we understood the pros/cons of each. He worked with local authorities for all hookups. We had one slight hiccup with the bid, but Ron was very professional in resolving the misunderstanding we had. Overall, I will happily use Ron Deems again. His work is not the cheapest, but I would rather pay more knowing he is competent and appreciates quality workmanship.
Description of Work: Installed new water service and re-plumbed laundry room.

Description of Work: Mr. Deems responded to a request from my wife who attempted to replace washers on the leaky laundry faucets. Mr. Deems made an "emergency call" (cost $245) replaced two "C.B. stems" ($40) in less than 20 minutes. Pretty good pay for an "emergency call". We have used Mr. Deems in the past and found his work satisfactory. After this encounter, we will most likely shop around for a more reasonable fare.

Mr. Deems met with us and after a thorough inspection of the current plumbing situation he gave us a complete checklist of everything that would be included in his estimate and everything that would not be included in his estimate. After agreeing to hire Deems Plumbing, the work was scheduled based on the weather conditions. It commenced within 2 weeks of the date of the estimate and was complete within 2 days. Not only did Mr. Deems handle the digging of the trench and the laying of the new pipe and subsequent connection of both the sewer line and the grey water line, he also scheduled the final cleaning of the septic tanks with our regular service provider so that the work fit into the timeline of the current job.This portion of the job was billed separately by the other service provider and was not included in the estimate from Deems Plumbing. However this insured that we were not inconvenienced and were using the new sewer line by the end of the first day. On the second day, he finished the grading and replacement of topsoil on the trench line. All proper plumbing permits were handled by Mr. Deems. We were extremely pleased with the whole process from beginning to end.
Description of Work: I hired Deems plumbing to hook up my Mother's house to the new public sewer line, and disconnect the house from the current septic system.
