AFFORDABLE PLUMBING HEATING

unknown

They're helpful and friendly. I've used them for everything I have done for plumbing seven years ago.

Earlier in the week my son went home one afternoon and found water coming out of the closet in his hallway where the hot water heater is located. He used my account to read reviews on different companies. The next morning he called Scottco, Patrick Plumbing, and Affordable. Scottco sent out at plumber to give him a price. Patrick never returned his phone call. He called three times over the next few days before he was ever able to get anyone on the phone to talk to him about what they would charge. He called Affordable after the unresponsiveness of Patrick. To make sure he was comparing apples to apples he asked Patrick and Affordable to quote the same work (his house is an older home and there were things that needed to be done to bring the hot water heater up to city code). The day he called Affordable he called them around 11 am and they returned his phone call by 2pm. Scottco's quote including the hot water heater was $1200, Patricks quote given on the fly over the phone was $1300, and Affordables quote was $850. After he accepted their bid he was told that they would have a plumber there the following day by 9am. True to their word the plumber showed up the following morning at 8:45 and completed all of his work by 11:30 including the work that needed to be down to bring everything up to code. Overall he was very pleased with the work especially given the amount of money he saved by using them. They may be a smaller company than Scottco or Patrick but the quality of their work and their responsiveness was better than Patrick and their turn around time to complete the work was good.

My house is 63 years old. One of my sewer lines became clogged. I phoned the plumbing company and they sent out a plumber. He found the clog and the line was cleared. This is not the first time I have used Affordable Plumbing. I had them add a gas line so I could use my new gas stove, up to that time I had used an electric stove. While under my house the plumbers found I had a leaking gas line. Thank heavens they discovered the leak and it was repaired. After the line was repaired and there was no longer a leak under my house, they checked the 63 year old gas line running from my home to the meter on the street. Needless to say after 63 years of use, that line was also leaking and had to be replaced.

I have depended on Affordable Plumbing, ever since I moved to this house eight years ago. They are friendly and the prices are always fair. I am a senior citizen and trust Affordable Plumbing.

Met the owner of the company for an estimate to tie a few gas pipes together for an outdoor firepit. Scheduled an appointed for 11 AM a few days later. No one came at 11 AM, so I called the office at 11:15 AM and asked when they would be there. They said he's stuck on another job. So I asked when approximately he could come and was told rudely, "Whenever he gets done with the other job." The guy finally shows up at 3 PM, no apologies for being late and seemed honked off that I would even ask why it was 4 hours later that he finally showed up. Then, when it's all said and done, he tells me for the first time that the hourly rate includes drive time to my house!
Unless you have all day to wait around and love rude service, I would NOT recommend this company.

I called on a Friday for an appointment and my faucets/handles were installed the next Tuesday. The job was done very well and quickly. We used Affordable Plumbing a few years ago for installing a new hot water heater and then again last year for putting in a new handicapped toliet (upstairs-heavy!) and they always came as quickly as they could and did a great job. Yes, I would recommend them anytime!

The person giving the estimate was not the person performing the work. They left hole they dug and then it rained, filling up the holes. The owner would not return phone calls. I had to have a 3rd party intervene. They left boot prints all over the new carpet. Their name is Affordable, but having to pay a real professions to make their work right, didn't make affordable on my wallet.
