The plumber was courteous and prompt in showing up - "A". The office was not very quick to respond to calls to come back - "C". Installed a faucet for me and adjusted another - great job - "A". But after two visits they didn't fix (couldn't find) my main and worst problem which was a sewer...
It took several weeks to get the staff to install the pumps. Once installed, there leaks and electrical problems. My advice is to buy and install your fountain from them and then find someone else to install the electrical and plumbing to support the fountain.
We used this company because we needed someone immediately and they were available. They did make a prompt appointment and two plumbers arrived on time. We were billed $900.00 for 3 hours of work. This included digging a 22" deep hole, repairing a pvc pipe, and filling the hole up. About...
Owner personally did fantastic job, to include blowing out drain valve on second unit. Very thorough checkup on unit, with valuable recommendations....Will use this company again, HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Gabe's Priority AC ServiceI had a real problem with drainage and had several other people out to look at my problem. Brian had the best idea and results were wonderful. My front yard now drains around the sides of my house without coming up on my front porch and into my house during heavy rains. It is not only...
They seem like nice folks, but... I needed 165 feet of natural gas line laid in an existing trench and connected. Plumb Star bid $15 per foot, total $4,425. I explained that the trench already existed; all they had to do was unroll the plastic pipe into the ditch and connect at the two ends....
came out to clear a slow running drain in the kitchen sink. proceeded to completely stop up the line and now we have no water drain in the sink. oh, he did leave the cap off the clean out and told us " you can still use it but the water will just flow out on the ground outside" talked to...
Fantastic response! Three gentlemen showed up within 15 minutes, introduced themselves and immediately hustled around to find the source of flooding in our downstairs laundry room. Very quickly, they found a split drain pipe from the upstairs bathroom, plus calcium blockage. They took care...
Excellent service was performed by Edgar Garcia - he unclogged the main drain then went the extra mile by extending my drain pipe outside because he noticed it was dripping on our foundation. He also gave me a helpful tip and told me to by a high voltage shop vac and place it on each main...

"I had a problem with my AC and called them for a service appointment. John Wayne has a good reputation, so I chose to call them and they were quick to respond. The tech who came to my residence was very friendly and professional, however, he seemed more like a sales rep than a technician. After a few hours and $950 worth of work, he indicated that the HVAC system was not repairable. He created a quote for various options to install a new system. I had previously researched average costs for replacement of a 5 ton / 16 SEER system, which averaged approximately $9-10K for a reputable company with reliable brands. The first option the tech provided was for $40,600, which was a little surprising. He offered several options, with the cheapest being $10,700 for the lowest quality equipment and least warranty. He indicated that the primary difference between John Wayne and other companies is the quality and training of the employees. He also used typical sales techniques, such as “why would you feel different tomorrow” when I indicated that I’d prefer to think about the decisive overnight. During research online, I saw that John Wayne uses Amana products, which are a little more expensive but highly rated and manufactured here in Texas. I purchased a system one echelon higher than the lowest priced system for $13,700, still well-above what I was prepare to pay; however, the tech indicated that they would waive the outstanding $950 bill if I purchased the system and they would be able to install the next day. The next morning, four techs arrived, all pleasant and professional; however, only one appeared to be a trained technician, while the other three appeared to be labor for assisting and conducting menial tasks, such as cleaning the ducts. Within the first hour, two of them accidentally shattered several sconces on the chandelier in my dining room when a piece of equipment fell while cleaning a duct. They are still here in my house installing, but I truly feel like paid too much. Again, I don’t doubt that they are a solid company, but feel like was pressed by a salesman rather than a technician when I needed an urgent problem addressed. I believe I could’ve purchased just as good of a system, maybe better, from a reliable company for a few thousand dollars less."

"Working with Groundworks was wonderful from start to finish. It began with their sales team, Rich G, ensuring my old, quirky home had a customized and thorough solution, phased out to make the job more approachable. Rich took the time to understand my goals for the project and the nuances of my house even though that took significant time and multiple trips to my home. The installation crew (Jose N., Phil S., Diego A.) was professional, prompt and answered ALL of my questions. Their communication kept me informed every step of the way! When the job was completed, it looked like they had never been here - the yard and landscaping look untouched. I would definitely recommend Groundworks for anyone who needs to have their foundation worked on!"

The regulations around whether drain pipe installers need to hold licenses or certifications differ based on where you live and the type of drain pipe installed. Municipalities have varying rules and regulations about who can and can’t perform plumbing work. However, we recommend hiring a certified plumber to install or modify your drain lines. Licensed plumbers will perform a high-quality, professional installation, which translates to a lower risk of clogs and leaks in the future. Use Angi’s state licensing tool to confirm the license status of your potential plumber before hiring them to install your drain pipe.
The cost to install a drain pipe is $600 on average, but the total can range between $150 and $2,000. Some cost factors that influence your project price include the type of drain, the area’s accessibility, the proximity of existing drain lines, and whether you’re installing a new drain or replacing an old one. Replacing the p-trap or s-trap under a single fixture will usually cost around $150, while replacing a main drain pipe can cost well over $2,000.
Plumbers will typically take one to two hours to install a new drain pipe, but that timeline can vary based on the area’s accessibility, the drain length, and the type of drain line. Replacing an easily accessible p-trap under a sink could take as little as a half an hour, while replacing a larger section of drain line behind the wall could take as long as three to four hours. When hiring a plumber for your specific installation, ask them to provide an estimated timeline to get a more accurate assessment.
You might need a permit to modify or repair any portion of your plumbing system, including drainage lines, depending on where you live. In some areas, simple replacements of existing drain lines don’t require a permit. We recommend asking your drain pipe installer or your local building department about permitting requirements. In many cases, only certified plumbers can pull plumbing permits, so you’ll usually need to leave the permit application to your professional. The fee for the permit will be passed to you on your project bill, though.
We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
