Ben was fantastic - he immediately diagnosed my problem (water main) on a Saturday, had all the right people out to mark electric, cable and gas (on a Sunday!), and fixed the problem by Monday at Noon. He was on time, reasonably priced, knowledgeable and extremely courteous and professional. We feel like we have a trusted plumber for life!

Knowledgeable, prompt, and pleasant are adjectives that I would use to describe Ben the Plumber. He was a little higher priced than some of the other bids on installing 3 toilets. I went with him because I liked the fact that he was the plumber doing the installation rather than a plumbing helper working under a plumber's license. The only thing that he did that was negative was he forgot in the cleanup to take a large cardboard box with plumbing parts from one of the old toilets. Other than that, he did an excellent job and I would use him again.
Response from Ben the Plumber
"Sorry Helen!The truck was loaded and we couldnt take anymore on that trip.Thanks for putting the box with your recycling!"

Conscientious, paid attention to detail. Skillful, able to outsource areas of non-expertise. Congenial & patient. Recommendation: to avoid confusion provide written estimate before starting job.

Ben was excellent! He contacted me within minutes of my request and was at my door the very next day. He was professional and a great guy. We had a faucet that needed immediate repair and Ben was able to fix our problem in 1 hour, he was awesome!

On the positive side, Ben was the first to respond and responded nearly immediatly upon submitting my request through ServiceMagic. I found Ben to be courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable. On the negative side, he wasn't fully prepared even though he had inspected the work area several days before starting the job. Specifically, he did not bring the correct size PVC P-Trap which I had to pick up (at my own addt'l expense) at the local hw store. Also, he didn't have a certain type of mounting screws for the PVC. It had been my understanding that Ben would be providing the non-burst hoses for the washing mach but I ended up buying them.
Response from Ben the Plumber
"I am so sorry I didnt completely satisty your expectations,truly.I did run out of the PVC traps and one anchor,costing less than $10.Sometimes that happens.With the diversity of every plumbing job and thousands of pieces and sizes needed it can occur.I didnt go purchase them myself because you told me you were going to the hardware store for sandpaper and it saved us both time and money that I could remain on the jobsite and continue working.Actually I did a few things n/c while i was there too which you thanked me for and shook my hand,so I thought you were completely satisfied.I always try,and will be there should you need me.Ben"

need a water heater replaced and wasn't able to be there on the day it could first be done but Ben was there [the water heater was accessible in the garage], did the job, removed the old water heating and done and gone by the time I got home later that day. Terrific experience.
Response from Ben the Plumber
"Thank's john it wes plesure to work for you,and thanks for the postive feed back"

Ben arrived the same day I placed the request and provided a reasonable and fair estimate. He gave me a date to start the project, which was mutually agreeable and he managed to start a day earlier, very acceptable! Ben arrived with all the materials and tools required and immediately began work. He knew exactly what had to be done and he completed the project with true professionalism. He was extremely neat, completing the project as expected. Definitely a name I will keep for future reference!
Response from Ben the Plumber
"Thank you Stephen,it was so nice to meet you, and work for you i hope all you spring projects go as well as the one i did for you,all the best to you and your family."

Ben the Plumber repaired my hot water heater without costing me a lot of money. He�s knowledgeable, friendly and get�s back to you when he says. His customer service skills are first rate. I can easily say, if I ever need a plumber again, Ben will be the first one I call.

Ben was very punctual, diagnosed the water heater problem in 5 minutes and had it repaired in another 10. He looked and repaired a small issue with the water softener, completed both projects in about 45 minutes.

Ben was very friendly, efficient, and dependable showing up on the job as he advised and stayed until the job was done. He had good suggestions how to correct some of the plumbing issues in my home and was very fair with the price. I'd hire him again!!

Ben definitly knows what he's talking about. He fixed my leaking shower where as another plumber wanted to replace the whole diverter valve. Ben saved me hundreds of dollars. He was there when he said and was extremely neat. Already referred him to a freind. I would highly reccomend him to anyone. I give him a five star.
