"This started with a persistently dripping bathroom faucet. The faucet was probably original to my mid-1960s ranch house. As long as I was calling a plumber in, I also wanted a dripping toilet (it was leaking around the handle used when flushing) repaired. I was pleased that a plumber was available the same day I contacted True Blue even though these repairs were certainly not an emergency. Anthony R., the plumber, came as scheduled late that afternoon. He was very competent and professional. He replaced the bathroom faucet with a modern new faucet because it really did need to be replaced. (My original faucet was so old that the metal at the base seemed to be peeling/twisted up--it was one of those faucets with the handles looked like plastic jewel knobs.) I examined the new faucet prior to it being installed and can verify its quality and heaviness. The new faucet has an arched neck where the water comes out and gives some height between the water coming out and the bathroom sink that wasn't there before. When turning off the water to the house, Anthony recommended replacing that on/off valve as well as a piece above that which regulates water pressure to the house. I'm sure both of these were also original to the house. The on/off valve was really corroded and I turned it gingerly when I had to turn the water off/on. As far as the water pressure goes, the Kansas City Water Department has been doing a lot of work in my neighborhood and will probably continue to do so and may at some point in time actually work on my street. To defend my house against the water pressure changes this can cause, I thought this change was also needed. I'm not sure I quite understand how it works, but apparently the water pressure had something to do with the toilet leaking. Be that as it may, I haven't had any problems with the toilet since the changes were made although the toilet was also worked on. These repairs were quickly done and did not involve a lot of time. I think this was a good value even though what was basically a leaky faucet expanded to replacing a water pressure device and the house on/off valve and cost about $1200. (I lived in another house where the house on/off valve had a box dropped on it which broke it, causing a major flood as water poured out. That's destructive so that's why I appreciate Anthony being proactive and making the recommendations he did as well as being able to complete it during this visit.)"

"I used Ben Franklin. I think what they do is send out different plumbers on their list. The first one was a bummer. he ripped me off and overcharged. The next time they sent out a different plumber who was an older man. When he heard about my first experience,  He got on the phone and called the company, when they finished the job they took off $400 off of my bill. If I could have that man every time. The first guy totally overcharged me. 

I have some more things to have done, but don't know if I can afford it. I wish I could have the second guy who came out.  I would consider using them again.

The price kind of sting me, the faucet was very expensive. I think thats why the nd plumber called and got me the refund. He used the fair price guarantee. I think $600 for a kitchen faucet is kind of steep myself.  Thats one of the things I complained about to the nd plumber. One of the things being advertised being AL they were going to replace an outside faucet for $79 and the first guy charged me almost $300. 

If Benjamin is just working with several plumbers in my area and they see who is available at the time in my zip code, Unless they have vetted the people themselves personally and know what they are going to do, it isn't such a great deal. 

They did the work I asked, just the pricing between the 2 different plumbers were a bummer. 

I thought $1353 was excessive, replacing an outside water faucet, routing out the pipes from 2 sinks. They told me they couldn't clean out the existing faucet enough for it to work, so I bought the faucet he had in the truck. 

My nd experience was great, came out in time.  For professionalism, the first plumber was overcharging but the second plumber was fair and was good for retired people.

"We neglected to remove an exterior hose from a water pipe last fall. Unknown to us, it caused a pipe to burst on the inside of the wall of our basement. The first time we used the outside spigot, the leak sprayed water all over one corner of the basement. We called Mel and he told us what to do to stop the leak and be able to use the water in our house overnight. He came out the next morning and replaced the affected pipe and outdoor faucet.

"Everything went GREAT! We were very pleased with the work (all our projects) they performed for us. We would definitely hire them again! I highly recommend them! I do have a couple projects lined up for them this spring. I'm looking forward to having them do these projects!"

"Installed two dimmer switches.

"I can not recommend Aaron enough. He is personable, generous with his time, and incredibly professional. He is willing to accommodate last minute requests with grace, and still accomplish stated goals on time. Good guy who performs high quality work."

"I'm 100% satisfied. Lewis responded quickly to my request for flooring installer. He made his proposal very clear and offered a very competitive price which he did not change at the end of the project. Lewis worked in a precise manner and completed the work within the proposed timeframe. Lewis kept me informed during each phase of the project. He always gave me a heads-up as to his arrival. lunch break or when leaving for the day. Lastly, Lewis had a level of honesty and integrity that allowed me to feel comfortable while he was in my home. Yes I would recommend Sissi Construction; true representation of quality workmanship."

"Went great, planning to paint trim and railing next and I know who to go with! Taylor with Up North Contracting is professional and gets the job done right the first time!"

"Fabulous. Will be our go to guy for future jobs. Very detail oriented and professional.5 stars"

"Anthony cane out Monday to do the work. He suggested that replace the trim board on the house so it would look better. We called our painter who came out this morning and did the trim work.Anthony came back right afterwards and did a great job. I had seen a special price on AL for the faucet of $ 99.00 which is all he'd charge me even though he had to make a second trip and do some work inside the house to make it all work."
