227 We had a problem with a shower drain. They charged us for not only the labor, but for renting the equipment that they owned and were not charged themselves for renting. They were short tempered with my wife, as well. They over charged and were difficult to deal with. I will not be...
I liked them. They're terrific and really good with plumbing and any kind of work. They explain to you everything and what your options are and offer reasonable price. I would use them again in the future.
I solicited bids from several area heating contractors and VEC was the only one to respond with an actual bid. They recommended quality equipment that is reliable, efficient and quiet. The cost was reasonable for the scope of work. Their crew was very professional from start to finish. ...
They came on the day I called! That about says it all! They had told me they were all booked up and could come the following day, but would try to fit me in on the same day, if possible. And they did! Very friendly and obviously eager to be helpful! Very professional yet neighborly. ...
He is affordable and charges $40 per hour. He is very honest, reliable and provides me with detailed receipts if any items are bought. He has done things for me for years. He has replaced a couple of vanities for me as well as disposals. I have no complaints and he always responds, usually...
It doesn't get any better than this! RB Plumbing is THE BEST! Friendly, as nice as can be, courteous, just start to sum up RB Plumbing. They do it right the first time. They are careful to not get any dirt or water anywhere in your house. They clean up after themselves. And they do the job so...
George was excellent! He was very responsive in returning my calls when I was trying to schedule a visit to our house. Once we scheduled a date & time he showed up on time and had assessed and then fixed the issue in short order. He was very efficient and explained what he had done and how we...
Falcon did the plumbing on a gut renovation of our kitchen, which I now regret. They did not do the plumbing on our recent bathroom renovation, which I do not regret. Here's why. On the kitchen, Brian, the owner, strongly suggested that we use Moen fixtures, which we did (and don't like, as...
Another great experience with Dan from Liberty Sewer! I called him on Sunday night, as water was pouring out from under our kitchen cabinets. Our pipes under the sink completely fell apart. Dan called me back on Monday and set up an appointment for Tuesday. We left the door open for him,...
Liberty Sewer and Drain Services LLCI use an awful lot of plumbers, because I own some apartments. But I would recommend him. He comes in and finds a problem. I have and old house and the pipes are not very good and he has never done damage. He is persistent and he follows the problem along until he can solve it. He is not a...

"I strongly caution anyone considering doing business with this company. I gave them a deposit of $4,428.65, and when I canceled a week later they kept almost $900 of it even though my service was not for another 6 weeks. You do sign a very simple, clearly stated document that says: should you cancel beyond three business days, you understand your deposit is non-refundable. Northern Basements may choose to refund depending on cancellation circumstances I fully acknowledge that I canceled a few days outside that window, but I hoped an honest company that cares about customers and referrals would choose to provide a full refund. I am a sucker for hoping that. They chose to risk my impression, referral, and review for $885.53. If nothing else comes out of this, I hope everyone reading at least goes in knowing that this statement on their contract is a real threat and your deposit is a hostage. Even Air b and bs offer full refunds on deposits within just a few days of their arrival date. 3 days to cancel with service not scheduled for 6 weeks out, Come on man. No materials were used. No service workers time was taken. The manager justified the 20% withholding as credit card fees, restocking fees, time and resources for the estimate, and administrative fees. I wholly accepted responsibility for the credit card fees and time of Paul, the gentleman who performed the assessment, and I offered to settle at 10%. I still believe any reputable company would have provided a full refund at this point in a project, or at most deduct the credit card fees because nothing more went into this beyond what would have normally been a free estimate. The further arguments the manager made for the additional fees were the scheduling of their team and the allocation of materials for my project. Complete nonsense, especially when the project was not set for 6 weeks away. Because they had my deposit hostage, they had control over how much they decided they wanted to keep, it was completely arbitrary, and they kept almost $900 of my money without providing anything. If they wanted to cover their credit card transaction fees, fine, at most 6%, but the rest is absolute robbery. The only solace I can find in this loss of almost $900 now is that I did not spend another $13,000 with them. I tried to call Paul after speaking with the manager to ask if he could do me a favor and try to reason with the manager on my behalf because he seemed nice enough. No answer. No callback. I will never seek out their services again and I will actively discourage others from doing so but, based on my experience, I expect they do not care."

Yes, most states require plumbers to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
It’s possible to snake minor drain clogs yourself, provided they sit within a foot or two of the drain itself, but it’s usually best to hire a professional plumber regardless. Even experienced DIYers have a high chance of accidentally pushing the clog further into the drain using a drain snake or another tool, so hiring a plumber is the ideal course of action. A professional plumber can use camera equipment to locate and identify the clog, and remove the entire blockage to fix your issue permanently.
Typically, plumbing repairs cost about $325 per job but can range from $175 to $4,000 or more. Simple fixes, such as a toilet repair, will be less expensive at around $150 to $400. However, if you have a pipe that has burst, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000 or more.
The project that needs to be completed, the size of your home, and the type of plumbing pipes you have can all impact the final cost. External factors such as supply chain issues and shortage of materials all play a part in how much this repair might be.
The average cost to unclog a drain is around $200, with prices ranging between $110 and $800, depending on the type of drain and the extent of the clog. Hiring a professional to snake the toilet or sink will usually cost between $110 and $275, a bathtub or shower typically costs around $225, and a main line clog can cost between $100 and $800 based on the severity of the clog and how far beyond the access point the clog sits. Since the labor involved varies, most plumbers will charge an hourly rate for drain cleaning.
The average cost to hire a plumber is around $100 an hour but can vary between $45 and $200 an hour depending on the plumber’s experience and the repair that you need. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays, and emergency plumber rates average $150 per hour, in addition to a flat-rate trip fee of $100 to $350.
