"Listen....plumbing has always vexed me! Having said that i was a bit nervous at the beginning of my project. However I was quickly put at ease by Tes. He was punctual, professional and knowledgeable (with an excellent set of people skills) in regards to my plumbing issue. I will definitely keep him on speed dial should have other plumbing issues in the future! Yee haw!"

"Along with installing a new water heater, plumber also installed new upstairs showerhead, and checked faucet in kitchen and 1st floor showerhead for buildup. Plumber was friendly and willing to answer any questions/concerns that I had. Will definitely keep in mind for future plumbing issues."

"We moved into a new house six months ago and recently thereafter started having problems with our sewer line backing up.  The original sewer line was installed when the house was built in 1961 and it was that terra cotta pipe which is subject to root intrusion from trees.  Initially we had the line cleared and things were working better, but knew we'd need to replace the entire sewer line at some point.  That point came in early June when the line started backing up again.  Again we had the line cleared, but this time the plumber clearing the line pulled out mud which meant the line was damaged beyond any quick fix.

We then had four different plumbers come out to estimate a replacement line.  The rub is that our exterior sewer line runs under our concrete driveway which is in good shape.  Only two of the four plumbers we saw said that they would try to replace the line without breaking up the driveway (Frank of Taciak & Sons was one).  This was incredibly important to us as that would have added an additional cost of several thousand dollars (most likely) to fix the driveway to an already expensive repair.

Frank was incredibly personable and professional when he came out for the estimate.  He went over all of our options (which were few) and answered all of the questions we put to him.  He was very thorough in describing the work that would be done and how they would do it.  Frank did let us know that breaking up the driveway might be necessary, but that they would do everything in their power not to break it up.

The plan to replace the line was to dig ditches on each side of the driveway where they could access the line and then insert new, 4" PVC piping through the old 6" terra cotta line.  Thankfully they did this expertly and did not have to break up the driveway.

They also replaced and added clean outs (two) for the line so that we were up to code.

Once completed, they filled the holes back in, reseeded the areas where the grass was destroyed and then swept the work area so dirt was not all over the place.

The total job took about 7 hours and the cost was very reasonable for this type of repair. 

They were fantastic and we would recommend them!

"John E. Ruth company remodeled our basement bathroom several years ago (about $7000). They completely gutted the old bathroom and rebuilt it from scratch. The work they did was first-rate and the bathroom still looks beautiful.
After superstorm Sandy, we had them come back and install a water-powered backup sump pump as well as cleaning and lining our old sump and replacing the old electric pump. The backup has worked flawlessly on the few occasions when the power was out and it came on.
However, last week, there was a problem with the pipe leading from the main sump pump. Over time and with much use, the coupling worked itself loose. Fortunately, John E. Ruth sent out a plumber, Charlie, within an hour after I called them and he came up with a permanent fix to the problem.
The supervisor (Jim Arnold) agreed that we did not owe them anything for this repair because they had originally installed the backup pump.
Overall, we have been very pleased with the work they have performed and they stood behind their work when it counted. Also, they responded very quickly to our emergency. We would definitely use John E. Ruth plumbing again.
