A shout out to Bob and Sean at Dave Jones Plumbing. They were prompt, professional, and very knowledgeable. They quickly diagnosed the issue and had everything fixed in no time. The pricing was fair and transparent, and they left everything clean and tidy. We appreciated their friendly attitude and attention to detail. Highly recommend them for any plumbing needs.

They said that they usually don't install other products not purchased from their company, however since I was having other services completed, they would install my kitchen sink. After looking at my shower and my water softener, we choose to fully replace both, in which other employees drove here to drop off the products so that it could be installed right away. I was very impressed with the amount of time it took, quality and helpfulness. The price at the end was very reasonable as well.

Everything was great! The old toilet had leaked a bit so he used extra wax to make sure this one wouldn't. The new pipes look very professional and he did a good job in hooking up the new sink. He also hung around to help figure out why the new toilet was leaking a little, and successfully resolved it. Overall the plumber was very knowledgeable and I would definitely use them again.

In cleaning out my kitchen sink line, I had the sink drain break off where it connected to the old cast iron 4 inch line in my basement.  As soon as it broke, I said, "Well, I can't fix that!"

I called up Dave Jones on a Saturday.  In talking with the emergency guy, we came to the conclusion it'd be better to wait until the regular work week so they could come out with all the right parts especially since the break was just limiting me from using the kitchen sink.  They were able to come out that week and cut out a big chunk of the old cast iron drain line and replace it with PVC.  They had to hook up the kitchen drain line, tub, and bathroom sink line to the new PVC.  It took less time than they originally estimated and as a result they reduced my bill.  The plumber they sent out was professional and knowledgeable and I will absolutely be using them in the future.  Great experience.

They were fantastic. It was expensive but they stayed within budget. I thought it was too expensive but I thought the work was really well done. Very high quality. You get what you pay for.

There was no cost, it was under warranty. They are reasonable, they are responsive and qualified.

The service is terrific. They send me the same tech every time, he is knowledgeable and through he keeps great notes and the next time he comes out he checks things he makes notes about previously.

The estimate and the installation went well, I thought. Courteous, professional, clean, reasonably priced. I was happy. Then my approx. year-old furnace suddenly went out one night. We woke up on a frigid Sunday morning to a house that was 45 degrees and the furnace wouldn't kick on. We called Dave Jones, since they installed it, thinking surely whatever was wrong, it would be covered under warranty. The technician on call called us back and was very grumpy to be called out on a Sunday. I could understand, since he lived in Cedarburg and would have to drive to Madison. Turns out they aren't exactly a "local" company, like I thought---more of a regional company. So we sat in a freezing cold 90 year old house, with a baby, for 3 hours waiting for this guy to show up. Not happy campers. When he arrived he was nice enough--he basically told us he thought we must be lying when we said it was 45 in the house, just to get him to come out, but nope, we weren't lying.  Then he basically said a couple wires had touched on the furnace, tripping the circuit breaker--which seems odd, given it was a new installation by Dave Jones. We were just glad, at the time, it was a quick "fix" and not a faulty furnace. It was still something like $165 for the emergency call. Not happy. Again--didn't you guys JUST install this thing? Why do I have to pay for you to fix your faulty wiring?
Fast forward to this fall, we had someone else come out to do a fall check up on the furnace, since he'd done a good job installing central air for us this summer and we were unhappy with Dave Jones. Long story short--he was horrified. Carbon monoxide leaking into our basement from a cut vent pipe, rust inside the new furnace from a leaky line, and a faulty installation that had completely fried the wiring in the Aprilaire. Still waiting for a warranty replacement on that.
I don't know what happened, the installation or the repair, one bad technician... but I do know a new furnace isn't supposed to cut out randomly after one year, it isn't supposed to be covered in rust, and I'm not supposed to have a completely nonfunctional, ruined $500 humidifier a couple years later. I'll avoid Dave Jones in the future.

The technician arrived early, was polite and professional, and fixed both tasks within an hour and a half.  Quick, easy, reasonably priced.

We had a very dirty tankless water heater that had not been properly serviced in three years. It was having some carbon monoxide issues venting to the outside.  Dave Jones Plumbing came quickly (day or two) and did all the cleaning and servicing in a quick and professional manner.  The plumber was knowledgeable and even pointed out  that part of our carbon monoxide problem was due to foliage preventing the proper cycling of air. Very happy with their work, responsiveness and going the extra mile to check out the situation. Reasonable price too. Would definitely come to them for future plumbing needs.

  1. Contact - Troy Schaefer project manager- he was our main contact at Dave Jones.  A great person and very good to work with.  eg) we also had new water heater installed, had trouble in 13-14th month (out of warrantee) yet Troy got this covered at no cost to us.  
  2.  Furnace & A/C
    1. Make is YORK
    2. Equipment cost & installation

                                                              i.      Furnace- $1800

                                                            ii.      A/C- $2360

    1. Standard warranty- 1 year labor, 10 year on parts
    2. Purchased from Dave Jones 10 year labor extended warranty on both furnace & A/C for $405.  This is transferable to another/new homeowner if needed.

I would have no problem recommending Dave Jones.  They planned ahead, came on time, were professional & friendly, good clean-up and they were timely and went out of their way to fix any problem when these came up.
