They didnt charge us a thing.
Got a callback from Dynamic at 7:45am the next morning, and Andy from Dynamic was at my door by 8:30am. He opened up everything, checked our coils for leaks, and ran a bunch of diagnostics - explaining everything as he worked. After observing good numbers for coolant pressure and temps, he snaked our clogged PVC trap. Condensation water draining again, crisis averted. Andy even showed me how to access the trap and snake it myself in the future.
Will definitely be using Dynamic again for any future problems and maintenance.
I called requesting a hot and cold shut off valve replacement for under my kitchen sink as well as the shut off valve under the kitchen sink that went to the dishwasher. the technician arrived on time and was very professional. when the technician looked at it he stated that the diswasher was too old and they did not make that style fitting anymore and that he would have to replace the line to the dishwasher too. he quoted me a price of~ $665. I then asked since the supply lines will already be off, how much he would charge to install a new kitchen faucet (I had the new faucet already) he then quoted me $160! for for 10 minutes labor (I did it in 15min ,so I assume he would do it in 10min) now we are talking $820 for three shut off valves, faucet install (labor only) and a new dishwasher line. ~$50 in parts and ~$770 for what seems like it couldnt take more than 1.5 - 2hrs(includung a draindown time of about 10 min) to complete. needless to say I was in a spot and HAD to do the minimum work at that time (condo unit where you cannot shut the water off to the individual units so the whole building had to be shut down) the min I needed done were the hot and cold shutoff valves for $250(remember he didnt even have to reinstall the supply lines because i was going to be replacing the faucet). there was no room for negotiation it was either replace my valves or pay their $64 estimate fee and he would be on his way. When i first called i asked would there be ANY way to sort of ballpark the estimate for at least the hot and cold, and the very cordial lady on the other end of the line stated that she could not because the tech never knew what he was going to find when onsite. I said i understood and I guess i would find out when he got there. When the tech arrived he assessed the situation flipped open a book and in about 10 seconds looked up undersink stops/shutof valves and said $XXX for the first valve and $XX for each additional valve. If he did that so quickly why couldnt the lady on the phone do the same thing and say something like and quot;this is a base price, it could be more based on what the technician findsand quot;. I understand that might not be feasible for all projects but simple under sink valves, supply lines etc should be able to be ballparked. I understand that professional trade work like plumbing is called that for a reason and that one will pay for that work. maybe I am out of the loop but it seemed like A LOT of money considering the parts and labor involved.
laslty when I went to put everything back together (using same supply line for the hot side) the supply line would not reach the valve and the pipe was noticably bent down at an angle approx 2-3 inches beyond the full extent of the supply line. this is a 40 year old building with 40 year old pipes and i was very nervous about having to bend that pipe back up to meet the supply line without it breaking. I was able to do so, so no harm, no foul, but am wondering if if that fatigue on the copper will show itself sooner rather than later.
in summation:
PROS
punctual
fast
professional
curteous
CONS
expensive
no estimates on simple jobs
bent pipe
I wont say I wouldnt use them again, but I will certainly shop around a little more next time
"We do have an upfront pricing system that requires a technician to see and possibly diagnose a problem before a price can be given. There is a small fee for coming out to a home for that to happen. That fee is waived if the work is done. Every situation can potentially be different depending on the age of home, type of problem being addressed and condition of the plumbing or HVAC system. We take pride in our reputation and stand behind our work."
