"I have used Malmedal for years.  They are my  plumber.   I always get the same plumber, Oliver.  Always on time.  Reasonably priced.  Very professional.  Oliver always has time to answer questions and offer advice.  Sometimes he answers questions that have nothing to do with the current job.  Like this last time I had questions about my septic tank. The work is always done right the first time.  In the past, I have had them clean drains, fix faucets, install faucets, install hot water heater, and add straps for the water heater to code.  I never have to search for a plumber.

"It went well, though he discovered one drain that was impassable. He recommended a plumbing service that was able to discover the problem."

"The crew who came to the house included: Chris, Josh, Christian and Jeff. They were all very professional and they explained very clearly what work needed to be done and where they would need to cut into walls and ceilings. We have a 3 bathroom house with a full finished basement. The crew attempted to make easy cuts for me to repair. The house was as clean as can be expected after two days of work. The job was done completely and thoroughly. We had an issued with the shut off valve and they returned the next day to fix our issue and Josh came out he was professional and friendly. I would definitely hire them again for any plumbing problem. Robert"

"The team did a very professional and thorough job for us. Thanks"

"Charles and team are amazing! This is the second time we've worked with him, and he didn't disappoint. We needed to do a major renovation of our kitchen to accommodate family members with disabilities. We had fairly specific design requirements, which involved raising the ceiling, adding structural support to one wall to create an archway, and adding another wall to allow for more cabinet space. After signing the contract with Charles, we realized we also needed to have our entire plumbing infrastructure replaced because of rusty pipes. We scheduled the plumbing work to happen before the kitchen project began so it wouldn't be an issue with the new appliances. The plumbing work left us with holes in the drywall in several rooms, plus a bathroom that needed to be gutted and rebuilt. Charles was amenable to adding the bathroom remodel to the kitchen contract--and we were amazed at how he was able to fit all of the additional bathroom work into the original kitchen schedule. Work finished on the exact date he'd targeted. He was also very accommodating of us in several other instances where we basically grew the scope of the project as it progressed. We are thrilled with the results and are planning to have him do a couple of smaller projects once we get our kitchen unpacked. Charles has two major strengths as a contractor that have made us want to hire him multiple times. The first is that he is an excellent craftsman. He is able to think through complicated designs and then execute them impeccably. The second is that he stays on top of every detail of the project and runs it like clockwork. Once work starts, he doesn't stop until it's done. His subs clearly value working with him; they show up exactly when they are supposed to and keep at it in order to finish in time for the next phase of work. Even when Charles isn't on-site while subs are working, he knows the exact status of their progress and keeps things moving until everything is finished. Charles is often booked out several months, but he is worth the wait!"

"First visit: Ryan came to see what work would be needed. Gave recommendation for water heater as well as 'booster' to provide more hot water. Did not go into crawl space under house to investigate bathtub plumbing needs. Explained steps we needed to take to prepare bathroom and floor for installation. (Total visit: almost an hour.) Second visit: Ryan performed jobs 2 and 3 easily and efficiently. Replaced earthquake straps on water heater; they had not been installed properly 10 years ago. Finally entered crawl space and realized he would need a second person to do plumbing bathtub hookup from below and above floor at same time. Arranged for a 3rd visit with an apprentice a week later. Third visit: Ryan and helper cut waste line and installed branch line to new tub location, plus install new water supply lines for tub as well as hook up tub to new branch line. Worked efficiently and thoroughly. [NOT MP Plumbing's fault: hose bib had hidden damage which began leaking a few days later; Seth called and explained function and design of hose bib, but when he was informed that it was still dripping at end of explanation, he immediately said something was wrong and he'd be by in 20 minutes. Arrived quickly (forth visit), removed part and discovered mis-manufactured part. Replaced immediately, and made note that it was too soon to have been our fault so there would be no charge for the part or the visit.] Ryan, Seth and apprentice were all very friendly; they took the time to make sure we understood what they would be doing (and in some instances why). They worked well and efficiently and were very careful and considerate of our space. Easy to talk to and we never felt they were talking down to us; when they used in-house 'lingo', they made sure we knew what was meant. Overall a very pleasant experience. While we had been told on the phone when we made the initial appointment that the first visit was a chargeable service call, Ryan discounted that first visit as he had not discovered the need for a second person and thus he had to come for the third visit with the apprentice. We felt that we were treated exceedingly fairly in those circumstances. Total cost includes water heater, booster and plumbing fittings."

"not the best experience to work with. after the presentation stating it would be "done in a day" we decided to move forward with the project the following weekend. the installer showed up and told us the info he was given by the company was not accurate to the project so he didn't do anything and said he would get back in touch to reschedule. the following Thursday my wife gets a text saying that the installer will be out on Friday. my wife took the day off of work to be there for the install. Friday mid-morning she got a text saying that the parts didn't arrive and that he will have to postpone yet again. I instructed my wife to text to inquire when the material was going to land and she was told it would land on Saturday and the installer would do the install on Sunday. Sunday morning rolls around and we get another text saying that they can't get into the warehouse to get the materials to do the job. at this point we are three weeks into this project and still no progress. the following Saturday the installers show up and demo the old tub and surround out of my house and begin the install. the installer did not get the job completed and had to come back on Sunday to finish. late Sunday evening the installer calls me in to see what he considered a job done, however I had to point out large holes in the drywall that were made and not patched or concealed, areas where caulking was missed and I even found a 3" crack in the acrylic surround material. I noticed that one wall looked weird like it bowed. he went on to say that the wall was not straight. I put a 4' level on my cupboard right next to his surround and my cupboard is perfectly plumb and so is my wall but his acrylic is bowed. I mentioned to him that it looks like it is a manufacture defect. that the material might not have been heated enough before bending which caused the bow and the crack. he looked confused and didn't seem to come up with a solution to the issue other than put some caulking over the crack, not the right solution for where the crack is located but it allowed us to use the shower. he them wanted me to sign a job complete form which I wouldn't do until the drywall, and some of these other issues were taken care of. he ordered more trim/corner pieces to cover over the bowed wall and drywall issues, the wall still isn't plumb but it is not as noticeable unless you know what you are looking for. in the mean time while I was waiting for this repair I called down to my county office to see if I need a permit for the jetted tub they installed and my county says yes since they had to run the tub on it's own circuit. my county went on to tell me that they did not see a permit request at all for anything on this remodel witch shocked me. I got in touch DaBella and asked them why no permitting has been done on this project and they didn't give me much information. the next week we ended up meeting with the local electrical inspector to clear that up. the presentation lady came back out to have us sign the job complete and I showed her the 3" crack and of course she was shocked and understood that a proper solution needs to be made. we signed the job complete paperwork with the notation the a solution to the crack needs to be dealt with. we have heard nothing from DaBella since. my recommendation to others is to hire a different contractor for their project, if you have to use DaBella you will most likely have to hold their hand and show them the right way to follow through."
