They are from our area, and my son Nick went to school with the owner’s son, who was taking over, so we thought it would be nice to use them. But they don’t do a good job. We actually hated dealing with them, being a pain at times. We never knew when they would show up. They knew that we wanted to be in by the end of November, but, by the middle of December, I had to call them, and they had to come in and they had to finish the fact. They just claimed that they were busy, but they had known about this since October 25th. There were still leaks down there. I called them and they came over the next day and looked at it. They hardly ever showed up, when they did, they were here for maybe hours, and they would leave. They wouldn’t tell us when they were coming back. It was horrible, it was absolutely horrible. Then the appliances were to be delivered and nothing was ready, we didn’t have any hook-ups for the washer, dishwasher, sink or anything. So I called and put a hold on the delivery, and had them deliver two weeks later. I told them that everything was going to be hooked up on this day, and I told them that till this stage, nothing was ready. The morning that they were going to be delivered for the second time, I had to call them again to see why our dishwasher wasn’t ready to be hooked up. We had already paid $220 for them to hook it up, and nothing was ready, for them to hook it up. He said he couldn’t get out here to do it right away that day, and that I could refuse to have them hook it up and that he was sure they would refund the money back. I asked him if he was serious, as I had already paid it. He said they would refund it, and that he would hook it up when he got over here. I told him that he knew we wanted to move in by the end of November, it was now the middle of December, and I asked him what he was doing. The things don’t go bad without a dishwasher, but that’s not the point, the rest of the work hadn’t even been done yet. So, that’s what I have to say about them. We originally had a problem with the bathroom sinks in half of the house, which wasn’t a huge deal, they could have tapped it off or fixed it for the time being or whatever, but he looked at it and said that all the pipes in the house were bad. So I asked him, what was the difference in price, between having the problem fixed at that time, and redoing everything. He said the difference was high but it was worth having it done. So I asked him to do it. We just got bill from them, it was over $3000. It was supposed to be around $2000, but they doubled it. We still have a problem with the toilet downstairs, its water leaks, and it was brand new when they put it in. The first time, I took a shower here, then, I went downstairs to the kitchen, and found water coming through the kitchen ceiling. When they hooked up the tub, they didn’t seal off the drain. The ceiling is all damaged and it’s still not fixed, so whatever it’s going to cost us to fix, we are going to take that off their bill. They haven’t offered to fix it, they just came the next day and had a look at it, and said they would try something instead of ripping the pipes off the walls, I told them that they dare not damage my walls as the whole bathroom was brand new."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/wi/iola/northern-plumbing-reviews-6520039.htm"},"position":7},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"KOWALSKI HEATING & COOLING","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"WI","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Erik L."},"reviewBody":"Our furnace was making really loud noises, so we just needed to get it repaired.

We called KP Appliance when the dishwasher suddenly stopped working to see what type of repairs may be necessary. I explained what was happening to the repairman who answered the phone and asked if he thought it would be beneficial to have someone look at it and repair it, or just replace it because it was 10 years old. He practically started laughing, saying there's no way he can determine what's wrong with it without coming out on a service call to look at it. I understand that repairs cannot be made and quot;over the phoneand quot;, but I thought with his experience, he may be able to tell me if this is a common problem that others have had. Needless to say, he was already done listening to me so the conversation soon ended.
My next call was to the service department of Furniture and Appliance Mart. They listened once again to my situation, asked questions, gave a couple of suggestions as to what the problem may be (drain plugged, computer needed to be re-set [by turning off power and turning back on] - things we could try at home). Unfortunately, none of their suggestions worked. The gal explained how much the service call would be, commented that it was and quot;probablyand quot; the mother board that needed replacing, gave us a cost estimate and between that cost and the service call, we made the decision to purchase new....from Furniture and Appliance Mart.
I wasn't asking for a miracle from KP Appliance, but the way the guy handled the call you can bet we'll never use their services and the and quot;recommendationand quot; we give probably isn't the one they want spread around!"},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/wi/plover/kp-appliance-inc-reviews-5760651.htm"},"position":10}]}
Basement Leak Repair reviews from real Angi homeowners in Iola, WI
update 8/2...I had to rewrite the review because I referred to my hot water heating boiler as a furnace. He called my review false because it is actually a hot water boiler heating system. This is the con man at work. I am sure the judge will laugh at the distinction he is trying to make! It...

Will probably do fine, if there is someone present during ALL work. Any purchases and/or returns should be done by the homeowner. Basement windows were "glued" in and fell out. Did not seal and cover a furnace exhaust when putting in a new roof. Was charged an hourly fee to return goods that...

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Iola, WI
The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.
Damp proofing and waterproofing are both methods to help keep your basement dry. Damp proofing keeps soil moisture from entering your basement, which is helpful since your basement is underground. Waterproofing, however, keeps both soil moisture and liquid water out of the basement, which is essential, especially if you live in a wet environment. Because it’s more protective, waterproofing typically costs more than damp proofing.
Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms.
Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.
Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in.
If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.
