"Todd and his team are professionals. They were very thorough and progressed through multiple steps of rodding and jetting before finally having to dig in the yard to add a cleanout to resolve my sewer issue. The entire team was contentious and intent at every step. Unfortunately, my 60+-year-old pipes needed a bit more than could be managed from inside the house. Not only were they professional and aggressive in resolving the issue, but they were also very responsive to our urgent needs and showed up when they said they would for every visit. Great guys and fair pricing...highly recommended"

"If I’d have known about The Scottish Plumber four years ago, I probably would not have had to replace this faucet so soon. He fixed the problems that the other plumber created and left my place spotless!"

"After checking with a few companies I decided to go ahead with Great Lakes Refinishing.  Matt arrived on time and did a great job.  Everything was taped and cleaned up afterwards.  The ONLY negative is that I was told it would take 4-6 hours while it took 8.  But since I was in and out all day that was fine.  The tub looks fantastic!

I usually don't look forward to giving reviews because if I can't give a stellar review I'd rather not give any review -- just my nature. But with the Plumbing Doctor I have never had a better customer service experience than I had with John and his staff.

I had a pretty bad leaky outdoor faucet and when I saw the Big Deal for an outdoor faucet replacement I did an impulse buy hoping that's what I needed. John got back to me within the 2 days the deal said he would and we made an appointment within the next few days.

His serviceperson arrived on time and went to work. That's when we had a problem. When he was trying to change the assembly, it broke off inside of the wall between the inside and outside walls due to the way it was originally installed. He said he would have to open up my inside walls to get to it, which to me was not so much the problem as it was to getting to the wall as I have a one piece desk-hutch unit that hugs that corner of the wall and basically is non-moveable. Lucian (the plumber) had John call me and said even though opening up walls is not part of the basic service, they would cover it because the pipe broke while the technician was working on it. Whew! I was not ready for major plumbing expenses for a leaky faucet.

Lucian had to take apart some panels under my desk and make 2 holes in the wall before he able to fix and replace the broken section of pipe. When he was finished he said I would have to get someone else to fix the holes as he didn't know how to do that. I was a little disappointed but more concerned that mice or bugs would come in from the outside. About an hour later John called to ask if I was happy with the work done and I told him I still had holes in my wall, he said he wanted me to be "100% satisfied" and said he would send someone over to get them patched. Since that was a Friday, I received a call on Monday from a different gentleman who made an appointment for the next day to finish the job. He brought pieces of drywall and spackle and finished the job. He offered to come back when the plaster dried to sand it down but I told him not to bother that I would worry about it when I repainted the room since the patching was hidden behind the desk panel. He put everything back, cleaned up and wanted to make sure I was a satisfied customer. I cannot believe it. These guys were really concerned about getting the job done, on time and correctly. I would trust them with any plumbing job in the future. And, by the way, the faucet works great and doesn't leak!

"We had a blockage in our main sewer pipe under the basement floor. It turns out we had an old flood control gate that had collapsed. It was about 80% closed, so water was not able to get out of the house appropriately. I called several companies and not only was Robert's price reasonable, he was the most knowledgable and willing to talk through the issue and the solution. Robert, Phillip, and his crew were able to break up the concrete floor and replace the pipe despite the fact that it was encased in several feet of concrete and was located right near our fireplace. It was a bigger job than we anticipated due to the original pipe being encased in much more concrete than is typically used, but they were able to take care of everything without destroying the walls or fireplace. The new pipe was put in, and the hole was patched with cement. I can't say enough good things about the planning and work that Robert and his crew did. They were skilled and professional and a pleasure to do business with. Despite the large hole in the floor, the clean up was impressive. Half way through the process when we saw just how big and difficult the job was, I felt confident that we chose the right company. This problem could have been a lot worse, and I am glad we trusted Lincoln Sewer and Drainage to take care of it. They also noticed that our catch basin needed minor cement repair, and took care of that while they were here. I highly recommend Lincoln Sewer and Drainage, and I won't hesitate to use them again in the future."

"They did a great job, showed up on time, installed the faucet quickly and cleaned up after themselves. I would hire them again"

"We had been having some sewer line problems in our old home for awhile, had another plumber who did a quick fix but was unresponsive. J. Blanton's team came in to replace some damaged sewer pipe in our home, quoting us about $5000. They were very communicative and got someone out to my home to take a look around and provide an estimate quickly. Shortly after they started the job, they told us that they needed to do additional work, totaling about $4000, which we went ahead with. As they were finishing up the second job, they informed us that the water line into our house was leaking and needed to be replaced, and quoted us $13,500 to replace the water line and the sewer line, though at that point they had no evidence of damage in the sewer line-- sort of a "while we're in there..." 
I reached out to a friend who is a general contractor and another who is a plumber, and received quotes from two other plumbers whose work came recommended by those I trust. The other two estimates came in around $5500-- less than half what we were quoted by J Blanton-- for replacement of the water line into the house, and neither of the other plumbers recommended replacing the sewer line until they could cam the line and see if there was any damage. I asked J Blanton for a revised quote for just the water line-- no sewer line replacement-- which reduced the quote to about $11000-- still double what other companies quoted us.
When I told J Blanton that we received another quote and were going with another company, several of their staff questioned whether the companies that provided the quotes were properly licensed to do the work (they were), if their quote was inclusive of all city permits and inspections required (it was), if they used their own staff or day labor (something that concerned me, but we verified that both companies used their own employees to do the work).

"We are very happy with the service we were given by Chris and Dave from Black Diamond plumbing. They had a fairly difficult job of replacing some old cast iron piping that had rotted out. The pipes in question were in a VERY tight space to access with water, gas and electric lines all running in very close proximity. The space to access the pipes was in a closet in the basement and the pipes were literally wedged in between joists, the main steel I beam supporting the house and electrical, HVAC, water and gas lines.  We had initially been told by other plumbers that it would most likely require cutting into the walls in the upstairs of the house (including 2 bathrooms that had been recently remodeled) and possibly even cutting up the floor under a brick fireplace.  These were terrifying estimates that would have been many thousands of dollars of work and would have probably required us to leave the house for at least a few days, not to mention the costs and time associated with repairing the upstairs damage.  Black Diamond said they could do it all from the basement without cutting walls or floors.  It took them nearly 8 hours just to actually cut and remove the damaged sections of pipe.  They did have to make a small hole in the drywall in one of the bathrooms upstairs, but my husband and I both felt that was an extremely reasonable action.  They stayed over 12 hours to make sure the job was completed in one day so that we would not be without the use of our bathroom for any longer than needed. Even though the scope of the work was greater than they expected; they stood by the estimated quote (which was very reasonable) which we were very happy about. The work was high quality and Chris and Dave were both very warm and professional. They also cleaned up very well after all the work was done! We are very happy and will be using Black Diamond for all our future plumbing needs.
