"My husband and I highly recommend Bob's Plumbing. Frank and his team, Mike & Ryan were terrific. We needed to replace our ancient water heater, and it was a very tricky job! We were impressed with their problem solving capabilities. They really do take pride in their work and took the extra time to do the job properly. Mike also rebuilt the flapper system in our toilet. Another company had installed the system improperly, and it had been running intermittently ever since. Now the toilet is quiet and works great, and with the high-quality Rheem water heater they installed, we never run out of hot water. We will be using and recommending Bob's Plumbing from now on. Thank you all again for the great job!"

"Bruce was super friendly and went the extra mile in helping us get a warranty replacement hot water heater. Rheem wanted to just replace the elements but Bruce took pictures to show them it was more than just faulty elements. He took care of all the communication with Rheem and Home Depot. Thanks to him we got a replacement hot water heater under the warranty. It was installed on time and all the work was done in a professional manner. We will definitely use Drainco for all future needs."

"The guys at RG Services did an amazing job on my walk in tub install. The job was completed in a timely fashion, the craftsmanship is amazing, and the customer service was great. I highly recommend RG Services 2021 for any plumbing or remodeling related projects."

"I needed a lock and cover for my exterior water faucets to protect against water theft and vandalism. It was urgent, but Charles didn’t know this. He responded right away and ordered 3 locks /covers. As soon as it came in, he headed to my home within hours. The job was done on time, clean, very professionally and within budget. Because I’m out of town he sent pictures of the work that was done. I later disclosed to him about a contractor stealing my water. We talked about security measures and he recommended to me security cameras that I could use for that purpose that would work within my budget and that he would install for me. Mr. Stevens did excellent work. I would use him again."

"We noticed that our yard was getting pretty squishy on the side of the house where the septic tank / sump tank is located, so we looked around on Angie's List and found Thigpen's Septic Tank Svc, called 'em up on a Sunday or Monday I believe, and they said they'd have someone out first thing Tuesday morning.
Sure enough, Tuesday morning they called us and said they'd be at the house in 30 mins.  Probably about 20 mins later they arrived.
They didn't even have to drive into the yard like we thought they would have to; they had enough hose to run from the truck in the driveway all the way over to the sump tank... pumped it out pretty fast, and they began to inspect the sump pump and the wiring.
Before long, Jerry I believe it was, had assessed that the wiring had gotten wet due to a previous installation not being wired inside of a weather-proof box, and this in turn caused the pump to burn out.
They had a new sump pump on hand with them and promptly replaced the old one, also advising me on how it needed to be wired up properly.  Also gave me the warranty paperwork on the pump (1 yr warranty).
Everything was completed and wrapped up within about an hour.  Very professional, friendly, great quality of work, punctual, all the good stuff.
At first I was taken aback by the cost since I'd never incurred a sump tank / pump problem before.  When Jerry gave me the invoice of $959 I was thinking, wow, that's quite a bit more than I expected - I was thinking the total would've been more around $600-ish.
BUT, later I got to looking online and comparing prices, and it looks like they're right in the competitive ballpark.  On average people get this kind of work done for anywhere from $900 to $1200 (or more if the hole needs to be dug for a tank, etc).
The pump-out job was $300, and the pump installation / replacement was $659.
In the future I'll probably do it myself since you can buy a pump for $150-300 depending on what kind you need... save myself some bucks.  HOWEVER, if you've never done this, seen it done, or would rather just have a professional handle it, I definitely recommend Thigpen's!

"I called late on a Friday afternoon after my air went out. They came after hours, installed the new unit, and took the old one for evaluation & possible repair. A year later I called them back for another ac problem (different unit), and they came same day. Whereas another contractor told me to junk the unit, Greg replaced a small part & all was well. While with me the second trip, I mentioned several other small jobs, and they got right on them! The vent hood took a trip into the attic and up onto the roof, but they figured out the problem and solved it. This hood was damaged during Katrina (12 years ago) & Ive had several companies out to look/repair and nobody was able to diagnose problem. Now I have my hood back! Repaired two ceiling fans that I'd been told to junk, repaired a pendant light wired incorrectly by another contractor, and even replaced some light bulbs in my 12-foot ceiling-ed rooms! Excellent service, very fair pricing, good responsiveness, and just all-around nicefolks. I HIGHLY recommend!"

"Called about leak Sunday morning. Plumber came out Monday, determined it needed replacement and notified Choice, who approved claim and permitted plumber to order new water heater. Thursday new water heater was installed. Was kept updated every day by both Choice and the plumber. Workers left my garage clean and I have hot water. Very satisfied and have recommended Choice Home Warranty on the Nextdoor app."

"When the flood waters went down 5 ton system on the main part of the home would not start up. Contacted the firm and informed them my home had been flooded and I needed an ac running to help in drying the home. Since they have been doing my service and installation work for years they knew the equipment in the home and brought what would be a like replacement. We had not even discussed price, as they have always been better than the market for like equipment when I have checked.
The next morning three trucks show up at my home and the new system was installed. The install was smooth, wiring done very neat and out of the way. The crew even cleaned all areas they worked in, making it cleaner than before, even though the house was a wreck from the flood.
The unit worked well. By the next morning the floors were dry and the smell of stagnant swamp was gone.
This firm is A+
