"Great education from the tech. Professional and prompt. Unfortunately the water heater still isn’t working as well as it should"

"Can not imagine a better response, starting with my call for assistance, response time and how the technician, Tad methodically diagnosed the problem. We have an obscure kitchen fixture that required service in Feb 2019. Under warranty the problem was easily diagnosed by me, a problem possibly caused by me and a replacement part sent and installed by Albert Nahman team. Problem: I broke the faucet cartridge. Current Problem: restricted hot water flow in this kitchen sink only. Turns out the new cartridge part is now malfunctioning. I called and Tad arrived taking a step by step approach ruling out possible causes: a clog here or there, build up of sediment, or blockage in the lines or cartridge. The company that sells the product got on the phone with Tad and they collaborated on the problem and the tech person gave Tad one more thing to try. After the collaboration it is agreed, problem persisted and therefore that new cartridge part is now malfunctioning and will be shipped free of charge in two days. Thanks to all, who made this possible and I trust we will have Tad here again soon to finalize this fix. BTW, cost of service was less than expected given going rates for such a call lasting in excess of one hour. Another comment, spending time with Tad during the repair was a pleasure to have him explain, collaborate, listen and just chat. Questions on who to call next time, no question who I will call next time. I have read criticism of costs: In the Berkeley area "How much does it cost to hire a plumber? Some plumbers have a minimum fee for a service call. They might charge anywhere from $175-250 to come out and give you a consultation. Plumbers may give you a general service rate of $128-148 per hour when there are a lot of unknowns about a project and they aren't sure how long it will take. Some charge a flat rate for their plumbing services. For example, you may get charged $175 for a sink or drain cleaning, while toilet installation costs $500." Today costs are upfront, same as charges in Feb, $69 to arrive and assess the problem. Here in excess of one hour for $129 minus $25 coupon, total charge $173. I am ok and I expected these costs. If I was in Philly, where I grew up, I could call an uncle or cousin and get a better rate, a family rate. This is going rate for our area."

"The plumbers from Superior Plumbing were excellent. They replaced and rerouted water pipes, changing from galvanized to copper pipes. The sewer lines in our house were repaired. They also replaced an aging hot water heater. The technicians arrived on time, worked diligently through the day, and were efficient. We added on the sewer repair which added an additional day. All work was completed within four days. I am impressed with their knowledge and workmanship. The technicians were tidy and removed all our old materials including the hot water heater. I would recommend Superior Plumbing and Drainage Co without hesitation."

"Noticed a leak in my water main under my driveway on Sunday. Found JD on Servicemagic and called. Juan was at my house the next day, Monday, at 8 am as promised. He said he could fix the leak the same day without damaging any concrete or landscape. His price for repair was also reasonable and he provided a lifetime warranty on all his work. They were very prompt and professional and I would highly recommend them to anyone."

"Mike was professional and fixed both showers, noting that the shower pipe valve for our new shower/tub had been installed incorrectly. He was very pleasant and professional. In fact, we had a toilet overflow and ceiling water leak hours after he left -- he was responsive over the phone and we were able to diagnose the problem. He even texted me afterwards to see if there was still a problem (there wasn't). Would use Mike again in a heartbeat. He is our plumber of choice moving forward."

"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."

1. I called Ben Franklin Plumbing due to a leaky faucet.  They ended up replacing 2 faucets and installing a whole house water filter (Yay!) and a new water heater.
   
   The team at Ben Franklin Plumbing is beyond absolutely Fabulous!  They are brilliant in hiring the finest, most skillfull and the best young men as their service men.  There's Brian, Matt Hopkins, Eric Tyler, Ariel Gonzalas, Dave Kileen and their dispatchers Raphael & Jessica along with Kim & Fawn.
   
   I am so glad I had a leaking faucet that caused me to call to them.  The 1st rep I met was Mathew Harris, who showed no edginess or anxiety to hurry up and get on to the next client.  He was totally present with us and our needs. He was willing to educate us & give us options without any pressure.  He gave us information then sat back while we took the time to decide what to do.  He showed us the extreme corrosion we had been oblivious to in our ancient water heater, which was
   evidence to me that an in-home flood was soon to occur unless the water heater was replaced.   All he did was show me.  When I saw the corrosion & realized a flood was imminent, it was I who initiated the purchase of a new tank. 
   
   1.      Without fail, every time I called them for service, the rep of the day from Ben Franklin respected my time by coming promptly on the day and at the time of appointment as scheduled.
   
   2.      They faithfully carefully covered their shoes to protect my floors while working inside.
   
   3.      They faithfully removed their shoe covers when leaving the house to keep them clean for the next time they
   came back in.
   
   4.      Each visit, they also were faithful in laying a tarp down to protect my floor from dirt & grime.
   
   5.      They brought calm, confident, pleasant, professionally friendly energy with them.
   
   6.      They were on task the minute they entered the home ready to go to work and get the job done.
   
   7.      They pursued the task to the end and the workmanship was impeccable.
   
   8.      There was one oversight.  When I brought it to their attention there was no defense, denial or delay tactics, only
   complete accountability and prompt resolution.
   
   9.     The 1st water heater was installed beautifully and worked beautifully?  however, it banged/thumped/clanged & thudded arbitrarily at all hours of the night & day.
   
   10.  When I called them about it, they cheerfully sent someone outwithin 24 hours.
   
   11.  They made a lot of visits to my house because even though they had clues to what the problem was, not one of the visits produced any audible validation that the sound even existed.
   
   12.  After a few months of doing every adjustment they could possibly think of, they installed a 2nd water heater.
   
   13.  After installation, while Matt was filling out his report? the sound happened!  He actually heard it in the 2nd tank of the same brand that he has just installed 10 minutes ago.  It was a sound no one had ever heard before!  And it happened with both heaters installed in my house!  
   
   14.  Not once had they indicated that I must be crazy hearing a sound that didn?t seem to exist!
   
   15.  Their rep took a new interest now that he actually heard it with the 2nd of the same brand.
   
   16.  It felt so good now that one of them had finally heard it!
   
   17.  He figured out what triggered the sound & recorded it on his phone & brought it back to his supervisor.
   
   18.  Hoping the sound would work itself out of this new one we lived with it for a couple more months to no avail.
   
   19.  When I called them with the bad news that the noise was still as loud and obnoxious as ever, without hesitation they made an appointment, switched brands & installed a Rheam the 3rd time!  (no extra charges requested for either replacement)
   
   20.  During the several months duration of this situation, my perceptions were never dismissed or ignored or brushed aside.  I was never told that since they spent time to install it I should be happy with its high performance as a heater and just deal with the noises and that things were fine the way they were.
   
   21.  The 3rd one has been the charm!  It is quietly doing its job and stand as my in house monument to Ben Franklin?s Plumbing commitment to service and being certain their clients are satisfied.
   
   22.   I had the opportunity through experience to talk to the owner & supervisor as well as ½ a dozen reps.  Each and every one of them showed nothing but concern for my well-being and making every effort to accommodate my needs.
   
   23.  The 5 months it took had nothing to do with neglect.  It was the nature of this particular mystery requiring that length of time to figure out.
   
   24.  Since they are national, I plan to connect my daughter in WA state with Ben Franklin Plumbing so I can feel secure that she is in good hands when plumbing needs arise in her home!
   
   It is impossible to speak too highly of the Benjamin Franklin Team.  My 65 year old heart is full of gratitude for working with people of such high integrity and commitment to professionalism and actually earning the money they are paid and
   standing behind their service.
   
   It opens my heart as I remember their warm hearted careful consideration & respect for me and my 73 year old husband in an era of time where kind old trusting people are preyed upon by those who are too busy to care.
