In prior years they have done other work including a faucet, laundry tub, water heater, and connections for toilet; always professional and timely.
I made a call that morning and in less than two hours he was there. He was very kind, showed me how I could try in the future to take care of it myself and I appreciated his expertise. It was taking the time to show me and give me tips that I really appreciated (well, that and the quick response).
This last time he had more work then was expected with my pipes and explained the whole situation. He installed a breather valve so I could bleed the pipes very easily for next year. I would use them again.
and easily cleaned out a clogged drain and also provided tips to DIY
this in the future , Tim also replaced my water heater a year or two
ago,and has become my plumber of choice, professional prompt and great
attention to detail.
Tim inspected the leaky fixtures and recommended a complete replacement and reconfiguration of the plumbing. He was not forceful nor pushy. Had I said no to the replacement I honestly believe he would have done exactly as I asked without complaint or and quot;eye-rollingand quot;. He never appeared agitated or impatient when I had him explain a few concepts a second or third time because I just didn't understand. He was always calm and respectful. Not everyone understands everything that may seem easy to you. Tim gets that. He took the time to explain to me how the existing configuration the previous home owner (a do-it-yourself-er) had built was causing my plumbing to work less efficiently than necessary and putting too much strain on the connections which were hand-tightened and not cemented together (thus the leaks). I have had 2 occasions in the past with clogs. The way the existing plumbing was configured made it necessary to call a plumber (I didn't know about Tim back then.). A pipe snake could not reach the obstruction. Tim replaced and reconfigured all of the plumbing under the sink which includes an access port! If the occasion arises again where I need to snake the drain (God forbid), I can use a wrench to open the port and snake the obstruction myself without needing to call him back. He had just possibly and intentionally cost himself a future job. I work in service/support. My goal is to help my clients become self-sufficient so that they no longer need me. It allows them to be more productive and me to deal with the next client or other needs. Tim met that goal with this project.
Tim is professional and friendly, He is appropriately dressed and equipped to do the job. In the 2 times I've hired Tim, he has had every thing he needs to do the job in his truck with no need to order parts or return to the shop. He works quickly am efficiently and doesn't drag out the project. My house is as clean when he leaves as when he walked in the door. I found his prices to be very reasonable and that I got a great value for the services he provided. I highly recommend Tim's Plumbing.
