"If you don't mind spending WAY over typical rates then Peddicord is your man. They quoted a job to replace 46' of poly pipe with cvpc for $1295. They then called and said it would be an additional $990 for a total of $2285 so they changed their "fixed" rate which amounted to a rate of over $300 an hour just for labor. I protested to this crazy high rate for a plumber. He then did some calculations and said he would charge me $1460 for labor based on time on the job and $500 for materials. I then said there was no way he had $500 in material, he then said $400 and he would go no lower. So I agreed to pay the new total of $1860. I later looked up costs for cvpc and fittings, etc on Home Depot and saw where this material probably cost about $75, no where near the $400 he charged me. So he marked up his materials approximately 400% which is outrageous. I questioned him on this and he replied that he did have a list of material. I consider that being severely OVERCHARGED."

"They came on time. They had to do some extra work. They took their time and did a very good job. They're very nice people. There was no delay on the service because they came out to do the work the same day we called."

"After futzing around for almost three weeks and spending over $500 dollars with another contractor who was unable to repair my gas fireplace, Chris Hart had it operational in a couple of hours at a cost far less than what had already been spent. Very knowledgeable and professional and seems to take pride in his work. He actually called back in a couple of days to make sure that I was satisfied with the job he did. I will use him again and would certainly recommend him to anyone needing a dependable gas fireplace contractor."

"I believe this is the last time I will call Ben Franklin to do a checkup of my plumbing. Since purchasing my house 5 years ago, I've had them come out to install a water heater, put a sump pump bypass that allows the sump pump to work w/o power and for several annual drain the water heater maintenance deals. The key is that Ben Franklin Plumbing has a "club" which requires a $50/month payment for preferential treatment. We had experience with this at my mother's house and knew it to be a gimmick. This time around they let us know that we needed a new flapper in a toilet, an anode rode to be replaced on the water heater, the 5 gallon expansion tank on the water heater would have to be replaced - even though it is 4 years old and was installed by them, a valve on the sump pump system this company installed 3 years ago would have to be replaced, that the water pressure into the house was high and would need to be stepped down to reduce wear and tear on appliances (which they had not noticed the last few times they were here), a cartridge in the basement bathroom would need replacing and that the drain in the sink in the laundry room should be snaked for a total of $2,746. The discounted club price was $200 cheaper. My husband asked if the plumbers worked on commission and was told no. We thanked them for their report and called the plumbing company we normally use - RL Voight and Sons. They fixed the expansion tank (which did not need replacing), said the anode rod did not need replacing, and replaced the cartridge in the shower handle (which Ben Franklin had tried to fix a year or so ago w/o success) and the flapper. They did agree the pressure was high and said they'd give us a quote on having the repair done. The key here is the difference between a company (Ben Franklin) that is on call 24/7 and one that is open Monday through Friday and does not do emergency calls. In future, I'll call Voight for the annual maintenance."
