Plumbers showed up on time. Day one took both leaking gas lines and stopped them off so gas could be turned back on. Scheduled next day for repairs. Day two, never showed. Tech called at 5pm to say they forgot to schedule us and would be there the next day. They showed and finished the job. One week later, hot water was gushing from outside pipe. Called Baker brothers back. It was a clogged cap on the water heater they had fixed last week. Gave estimate and said we needed new water heater ( no we didnt. it was only 5 years old)Tech got leak fixed. 10 minutes after he left, water resumed leaking. Called them back, they came back after 20 minutes. Had no choice but to have them fix it. ( $115 on top of the $110 they already hadfor estimate) Everything is fine now, but a bit concerned that 1) they didnt see this problem when they were fixing the gas lines on this water heater 2) could they have possibly caused this... according to them , no 3) felt like they conned us. ( especially saying we needed a new water heater) I dont trust these guys. Will not use them again
Description of Work: Two gas lines were leaking ( one water heater and one other). Lines fixed and stoppers added. One week later, hot water heater line had leak .

Response from Baker Brothers Plumbing, Air & Electric
We contacted the Member and they were very satisfied with the initial gas service installation. The problem with the water heater was completely unrelated but we were concerned that it took two trips for the repair. We were able to address and settle the matter on a positive note and to the Member's satisfaction. We sincerely hope they will afford us the opportunity to be of service should they have any future plumbing needs.

Overall, the experience was excellent. They were expensive but they were very good at what they do. They’re efficient and completed the work quickly. They worked on both of my houses. I’m happy with their services.

On Thanksgiving night one of our water heaters failed and we had a valve that would not shut in our upstairs tub. We called Baker Bros. and they called back that evening. They could come at 8PM, but by that time, we had already shut down the water heater and just let the bathtub run. We arranged to have them come on Saturday morning. They called before they came at 8:30 AM and replaced the water heater and the valve. It turned out that the valve failure was due to the rust from the water heater. They stayed until 1PM and cleaned up everything. They were very professional and arranged to have Dallas Code Enforcement come to check the permitted work on the next Wednesday. They explained all the work and communicated with us throughout the long process.

Our kitchen drain was slow to drain. I searched Angie's List and decided to call Baker Bros. since they had a high rating and many favorable reports. The initial service was performed on 10/31/11, and the drain was apparently fixed. However, within a day, the drain started slowing again, and progressively became worse. We called them again and Baker Bros. kindly agreed to send the tech out again at no cost and he came as agreed on 11/21/11. He snaked the drain, and was unable to reach the clog. He even went on the roof and tried through the vent. He definitely gets an A for effort. He was courteous, and very professional. But the story does not end there. This would be an A rating report had he successfully cleared the drain. After nearly 3 hours of trying, the net result was clogged drain. Even worse. Whereas before it drained VERY slowly, now it didn't drain at all. He suggested that the cleanout was of not the correct size for his tools and that he would have to cut through the wall or, at my suggestion, under the cabinet to install a new cleanout. He gave me a quote which was not unreasonable for the amount of work involved, and without any other quotes to work on we told him we would think about it and later scheduled the work to be done. But before he could come back out, we had another plumber come out to take a look. This time not from Angie's List, but from other sources. No need for a long description here, he and his assistant had the drain completely cleared within an hour. With the same type machines. Still draining extremely well. And at a fraction of the cost. This is not to say Baker Bros. is a terrible company. They did their best to accommodate our needs. Prompt, courteous and friendly. But they didn't get the job done. Someone else did.

We contacted the Member and came to a satisfactory solution with them regarding their concerns. We explained to them that customer satisfaction is extremely important to us and the Member advised us they would definitely put us on their "use again" list and were impressed with our follow up. We very much appreciate the Member giving us another opportunity to be of service in the future should they have a plumbing need.

Our hot water heater decided to fail on the day our extended family came into town for the Thanksgiving Holiday week. We felt a lot of pressure to get a new unit in ASAP but wanted to make sure we got a good unit at a fair price. We did some very fast research (Thanks Angie's List) and I spoke to 3 plumbing companies. They were all very easy to talk to but we found Shawn at Baker Brothers to be very knowledgeable and patient with all our questions. They provided a very solid unit at a fair price, promptly and professionally. The crew that came to the house was prompt, polite and very professional. They answered all questions and did a very good job with the installation. I normally would do this type of work myself and am always nervous about the quality someone else will bring to the project. I am very pleased with their efforts and the results. Thank you Baker Brothers!

Home Depot delivered a gas stove and couldn't get the gas valve shut. They then left so I had to call the plumber. Bakers was able to send a man out on a Saturday and help with replacing the seized valve. In the end he helped me install the stove and thank goodness since I need the stove for Thanksgiving! All around very prompt and all services complete within an hour.

He kept throwing out prices and upgrades. "I can do this, but if I find X then it will cost you $300 but if you go ahead and authorize this service now then it will only be $250" "If you authorize that and I find Z then it will cost you $450 but if you go ahead and authorize this service now then it will only be $400. He tried to sell me a new line (approx 6k), a pressure wash out of the line, etc. He did this constantly and I was exhausted when he left. It was equivalent to dealing with a USED CAR SALESMAN! I only allowed him to do what I originally asked and it corrected the problem. I won't contract with them again.
Description of Work: He ran the snake down the line toward the street and cleared the blockage. He ran a camera and said I had standing water so I had a belly in the line.

An upstairs toilet float valve broke (plastic part on lever arm), flooding the bathroom and two other rooms, and soaking through the floor to the ceiling below, ruining the ceiling. We called Baker Bros to replace all 4 float valves and the connecting hoses and shutoff valves. The plumber did a satisfactory job, but the cost seemed relatively expensive, and the floats in two of the toilets are sticking (I question whether the quality of these new valves is adequate).
Description of Work: Replaced float valve in 4 toilets (one had broken, soaking carpets, floors, ceilings, light fixtures). Replaced flex pipe inlet to toilet., and shutoff valve. The originals were 'contractor quality' - ie, junk.

We contacted the homeowner and he stated the tech advised him beforehand of the prices. He agreed to have the work done, but when he wasn't happy, he did not realize he could contact us about his concern. We explained to him that is the value in using Baker Brothers Plumbing - our customers are our number one priority. Although his membership has expired and he cannot amend his response, the homeowner assured us we have settled this matter to his complete satisfaction.

Assumed anyone who makes cheesy commercials is no good, so was surprised to find this company so highly rated on Angie's List. Plumber was surpisingly nice, gave me several options to fix the problem and thoroughly explained the situation and possible solutions. It turns out once he got into it, there was really only one option without spending a lot more money, but once again, he walked me through his reasoning and left the final decision to me. Easy to talk to and very personable guy, again very surprising.

Baker Brother's should have explained the process better when I was booking the appointment. My expectation was that a 9:00 appointment should result in completed work. They were a major waste of precious PTO time from my employer. Additionally, I should not have to pay one group and then turn around and pay another group to fix the problem. Fortunately, I was able to locate an alternative plumbing company that are looking for the leak now and will proceed to repair as soon as located.
Description of Work: Devoted entire day to allow for plumbing work. When I booked the appointment, I indicated that it was likely that I potentially had a leak in the slab foundation of my house. I asked if the plumbers would have the equipment they needed with them to make this type of repair. The response was, yes. When the plumbers arrived. they confirmed that I have a slab leak and indicated that it would cost $291 to find the leak. From their a separate crew would have to come back and fix the leak. Since no one was available on Friday, they could come on Saturday, but I would need to take an additional day off to meet the city's inspector and leave a hole in my floor until such time.

We agree that we need to be sure our customers have a clear understanding of everything before starting any work so they can make their plans accordingly. We appreciate this feedback and will be sure to address this with our call center representatives. The City of Flower Mound requires an inspection of the repair and that means the hole needs to be left open until a business day when their inspector is available. We are still trying to reach the Member.

Brian telephoned before arriving and arrived very soon after, to clear our plugged drain line. He surveyed the situation and wrote up an estimate. After I authorized the repair, he ran his "rooter" through my sewer line and cleared the obstruction. Then he ran his video camera down the sewer line, and discovered that the city's sewer tap had shifted and was no longer aligned with my house sewer line. He recommended I telephone the city's water department to request they come inspect and repair the situation. Brian was very patient and made sure that I understood the problem and would be able to explain it to the city water department.
Description of Work: We had a lavatory and a bathtub with standing water and a toilet that would not flush. Brian cleaned out our sewer line to remove the clog and examined the trouble spot with a video camera.

The work seems to be done very well. The workers that were here were clean with their work and professional. They came when they said they were going to. I do have a problem with their scheduling since the workers were here for awhile and my work started on 02/18/11 and wasn't complete until 03/03/11. This was way to long to make me wait for my tork to be completed. They pushed the workers to other jobs while I was sitting with floors torn up with open sewer lines, etc. I think they should have allowed the work to be completed here first. I only had leaks in 2 places so it's not like we had a leak every day. The company didn't offer any discount for this inconvience either. I felt they took advantage of me in this respect because who is going to stop in the middle of the process? THey are very expensive but I had to get the work done correctly because I am noticing foundation issues and they were recommended. Please understand that the workers that were here were great, but the process was too long. I think the pricing is inflated because they think insurance is going to take care of it, but my Farmer's Insurance didn't pay a penny. I will say to watch your landscaping because I have to have some dirt that will have to be graded away from my foundation correctly and had some bushes injured that died from the excavation to put in the proper items to do the isolation testing, even though my bushes shouldn't have been affected My real complaints were the the way I was done with missuse of my time and the pricing. You won't be able to have this sort of thing done and have a full time job. Even after submitting this report, I thought someone would at least tell us they were sorry for all the delays etc. but I haven't even had an acknowledgement that this happened. I feel like for the almost 8000.00 that's eight thousand dollars we spent we should have at least been a priority to finish our job before going to another. That's why I have rated responsiveness a lousy. Again, get other estimates.

COMPLETELY satisfied! Have used them over and over again. From small projects (toilet continually runs) to re-installing new hot water heater, to gas leak, to water leak (anywhere), to removel and re-install of all 3 bathroom hardware (sink, tub/shower and toilet). Generally I've tried to use the same techs however, they have different specialties. Have never been disappointed and have recommended them to several neighbors and friends. NO ONE has ever had a bad experience!
Description of Work: Started with a leak in the gas line....progressed to new hot water heater. LOL This has been an on going "house project" that started with "we'll just get a new washer & dryer". Turned into an "uh oh...gas leak". Then a "hot water heater leak", well..."might as well replace all the plumbing hardware" for an updated look to the house. Nightmare problem but because Baker Brothers was such a professional, fairly priced (and I did get other quotes!!!) organization to work with...it was not as daunting as it could've been.

Decided to go with another contractor.
Description of Work: This company was contacted based on Angie's list reviews. We wanted to receive a price estimate to get new gas water heaters installed. First of all we had to pay a service charge of $ 39.00 for a price estimate which is understandable and if you decide to go with this company this charge will be waived. On that morning the technician/sales rep. arrived on time and he was dressed in a professional manner he also wore a protection around his shoes so our carpets and floors would not get dirty. He viewed our water heaters and sort of described which work was involved and needed to be performed. When I mention sort of I mean he was not able to provide us with the information on how and what codes needed to be performed for our city area. When it came down to giving us a price estimate he did not know if his company had a yearly maintance plan or should I say provide a service agreement, and he was even unsure on how much it would cost for if his company to come out and do a basic maintance. (flushing/draining of water heaters). He also did not know if we would need a drain pan to place under our water heaters. (for code based on which area you live in) I made him though include a drain pan on his invoice , he viewed the price in his manual book which would be $ 124.28 per water heater. On his invoice he did include how much each foot would cost of pipe but did not include how much would be used. He also forgot to include that a permit + inspection should/needs to be done which would include an additional $ 100.00 also he forgot to include taxes. We also wanted to have an estimate for a tankless water heater which ended up also not going so well at least he could tell us how nuch the unit would cost. But forget about finding out how much all the additions would cost with this unit. He estimated around $ 600,-$1,200 for an additional gas upgrade alone. I did call the company and tell them we would not contract them to do the work and I was already worried and unsure with going with them just alone based on there unsure estimate. So the $ 39,- was gone which a honest company would have reimbursed but I am very happy with the contractor I did select. I do not give the technician the fault because I found out he was new (which was noticeable) from the company and from himself. The technician was very polite and with more time given to learn about sales (prices) he might have done well. I do think a company should want to keep up their image and represent themselfs in the best way possible. They should invest in their techicians/sales rep. to expand their knowledge and invest time for them to feel more comfortable out in the field.

Response from Baker Brothers Plumbing, Air & Electric
We contacted the Member and apologized for the experience they had. Although the licensed plumber who came to their home was qualified to perform the work, he is fairly new to our company and still becoming familiar with estimating and pricing. In addition to supervisory assistance, we do have an extensive training program our plumbers attend weekly. We do have policies in place and there was an oversight when the Member called our office, which we did address with the Member when we contacted them. We believe the Member recognizes we are honest and we appreciate they indicated they would at least consider using Baker Brothers in the future. We would consider that a privilege.

The arrived as promised and the first attempt did not correct the problem. They came back with a hydro blaster, and that partially cleared the clogged line. Once a camera was used, they identified a tree root as the culprit, and informed me they would need a backhoe to dig the line up. That was accomplished the next day. They spent a lot of time correcting this problem and did it to my satisfaction. It wasn't cheap, but it was effective. The initial estimate did not include all services they provided, but they honored the original estimate. I would use them again.

Called on Saturday due to a serious leak in my kitchen faucet. It had weird fittings and I did not feel comfortable trying to handle the job my self since it seemed to be leaking above the first fitting that I could see. Brandon came out and determined that the faucet needed to be replaced as I suspected. He helped me pick out a replacement and even offered to let me wait until my wife was available to help pick the replacement. Scheduled the replacement for Monday since it was not an emergency and the parts needed to be acquired. Since no work was performed they dropped the price for coming out from $100 to $40. I would have liked to see this fee waived or taken off the faucet installation since I did schedule the work for another day. However, I agreed to the $100 minimum service fee to come out so I will not complain too much. Especially since the first two plumbers I called did not even return my call until a few hours after Baker Brothers had come and gone. I received a call 1/2 hour before my appointment time on Monday letting me know that he was on the way and he arrived 5 minutes ahead of schedule. The faucet replacement went smoothly and Brandon pleasantly responded to all of my questions and explained how the weird fittings worked in case I had to tackle some in another room of my house. The charge for the new faucet and labor was $390 but I was able to use my $50 angies list coupon on the service since my printer was not working on Saturday for the first visit. I took 1 star off the rating for price knowing that there is no such thing as a good cheap plumber. Overall, I had a great experience and I will definitely use Baker Brothers for my future plumbing needs.

Since the problem had already been diagnosed, the guy got right to work. He arrived around 3pm, and found that there were some shut-off valves that had just been buried under the dirt. He suggested that once he fixed the leak, we put a box around it so that we could access the valves. I agreed and he got to work. It was over 100 degrees out, and he was up to his elbows in mud working on these pipes. He worked until 10pm and could not get it done to his satisfaction. In the end, he came back first thing in the morning and pulled the whole thing out and re-installed it to get it right. He was out there for 7 hours in the heat, and eventually the dark because he didn't want to leave the job undone. He was very apologetic, but I really didn't think that was necessary. He fixed it in the end, and we did not get charged for the extra time. I would definitely call Baker Bros. in the future, and would definitely recommend them...
Description of Work: We had a leak in the water pipe coming into our house. After ruling out a sprinkler problem, we called Baker Bros. They said they would send someone out the next day, but after I explained the problem and the urgency, they sent someone out the same day.

Hired them to perform an inspection of all the plumbing prior to the purchase of my house due to an general home inspection that indicated some evidence of water leaks present. Initially, the tech only inspected inside the home for faucet, toilet leaks etc. Called the dispatcher just after tech left and had him come back to finish and they advises additional charge to crawl under house to inspect. They issued a report that all was good with the exception of a small vent pipe. After home was purchased, foundation crew doing work on piers came up with a picture of plumbing leak under the house with a can underneath it to collect the water. Ground had been saturated for extended period of time under two bathroom areas. They sent out another team and fixed the leak and had the nerve to charge (albeit a reduced rate) for the repair. The cost to not finding the leak was in excess of $40,000. The wood beams underneath the house had dry rotted as a result of the constant moisture. Had he done his job and just gone underneath that portion of the house and reported what he saw, I would not have purchased the home. The extra foundation work was $25,000 and I had to gut two bathrooms to ensure the leaks were all found (there were at least two inside the walls)...about $10,000 per bathroom. Additionally, called out another plumber to inspect and they located three major leaks in the rest of the house.
