"I called "H20 Plumbing and Sewer Services" on a Wednesday to get an estimate on a job and Scott and Mike came out. I had a pipe that rusted through and was leaking in my crawl space. The section of pipe that was leaking was in between two joists connecting to a 90 degree cast iron elbow with a concrete wall under the section to make it even harder to get to. It was a super tight space. Scott and Mike were very honest and told me up front that it would be extremely difficult to get the section out. They told me they might have to go through the kitchen above and cut into the back wall of the sink to access it. Worst case, they would have to cut through the back of the kitchen sink cabinets. That would obviously be expensive because you then have carpentry work to do after the fix. But if the crawl space option didn't work, there was no other way to do the job without cutting through walls and possibly kitchen cabinets. They gave me an estimate for plan A and plan B. The prices were reasonable but I had a lot of anxiety that plan B could get extremely ugly. I had some other estimates and I heard the same thing. Overall, H20 had competitive prices but the main reason I hired them was because of the confidence Scott and Mike showed when they talked about doing the job. They told me if anyone could get it done it was them. They showed a real sense of pride in their work and their abilities. I called back that night and told them I wanted them to do the job. To my surprise, they were able to squeeze me in the next day. The next morning Scott and Mike came in ready to go and I crossed my fingers but was expecting plan B to be a given. Miraculously, they were able to break the bad section away from the 90 degree cast iron elbow! I was super excited that they wouldn't have to cut through from the kitchen above! They then replaced the pipe with brand new PVC and added an access trap so we could more easily clean the line out in the future. I would HIGHLY recommend "H20 Plumbing and Sewer Services"! I will make sure that any future plumbing work comes their way!"

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!

"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!"

"Lincoln was A on everything. The only thing is you have to pay in cash for everything, he is an old guy, and don't take checks or charge. He did an tremendous job fixing busted pipes, had lines busted, he gave me an fantastic price, fixed the concrete, and everything. The only thing that I don't like is that they don't take charges, but I was fine with it."

"Mark kept us informed before during and after the project.  Due to previous damage to the tub Mark had to complete a repair before refinishing. Overall about 7 hours of work. I would not hesitate to use 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).

"Great! would definitely hire again or recommend for any plumbing needs."

"They had great customer service. They came over in the 2 hour window given. They called before arrival or that they were on their way. The only concern I had was that they were going to leave the tree roots on my front lawn but I brought out the garbage can for them to dispose."

We decided to purchase the Big Deal for a whole house humidifier from Black Diamond after reading the reviews for this company.   We could not be happier. What should have been an easy job turned into something more complicated.  The technician called for help and the two of them worked on it until problem was solved, explaining everything to my husband as they worked.  To make matters worse, they couldn't fully do final testing  because our water was turned off.  (New shower was being installed at the same time).  He left but told us to call if the humidifier didn't work once the water was back on.  Shortly afterwards, we noticed our furnace wasn't working.  We called the office immediately, and the technician came back within the hour.  The problem wasn't anything he did.  The furnace is old and some parts are showing heavy wear and will have to be replaced soon.  However, the technician managed to get the heat back.  We would definitely recommend the company!
