"I overfilled my garbage disposer!! My sink had 2 inches of water as a result of my trying a plunger to clear it. I called RS Plumbing at 4:45 in the afternoon and Steve came the next morning at 8:00.

He had me clear the area around the basement pipes in case the clog was more major than I hoped. He was able to clear the drain only in the kitchen area. He worked efficiently and had the drain running freely. I asked him to check the dishwasher hosing in case that was part of the blockage. I have had problems with that before.

RS Plumbing was prompt, competent, and overall good to work with."

We had our water heater go out last week.  We noticed it when we woke up to take showers before work.  I called a few places and ultimately chose to go with Harker because the receptionist told me they would be able to come out and assess the heater and replace it the same day.  Our water heater is about 7 years old, so we figured there would be a good chance that it would cost the same amount the replace the water heater as to just fix the older one, so that is why I verified with her that they could fix it the same day.

 

We have a new rescue dog that is not good around men, so my SO came home from work (I had already taken the day off work for this) and she took the dog away from the house so we didn?t disturb the men while they worked.  As we expected, there were a few parts that were bad on the water heater and the cost would be similar to repair or to replace.  He was done looking at the water around 2:00 and he told me someone would call me for a quote.  I was confused as I was under the impression that they would replace it that same day per the lady on the phone.  Apparently, that was not the case.  This guy wasn?t even the guy who would replace the unit, the guy who would replace the unit was busy and they didn?t have a replacement unit. I was very frustrated and mad?I chose Harker because I was told they could do it all in one day or we both wouldn?t have taken off work.  I could have just let my dog outside for a little while for him to look at the water heater.  I paid roughly $120 for this diagnostic test.

 

We then called to speak with a manager at Harker.  They tried to get someone to come back out that night and replace the water heater but were unable to.  They did have someone sent out first thing the next morning and took about $50 off the service call, which was appreciated but didn?t cover the amount of money we lost at work for missing part of both days.  This all could have been avoided by having their receptionist give accurate information.  There are a ton of places in Madison I could have called to have my water heater replaced and I chose Harker because I was told they could do it that same day and if they couldn't have replaced it that day, they should have said so and I would have made other arrangements. 



Update to Harkers repsonse:

At no time did they ever offer to have the heater replaced that evening for overtime rate or we would have easily paid it instead of taking more time off work.  We were told that they could try to get someone out that night but were unable to.  The only reason we okay'd them to come back the next morning is we needed it replaced as soon as possible.  We did not call later in the day-- it was still in the morning when we called.  And, obviously we know that you cannot carry all kinds of equipment around with you, but I was told that it would be replaced that night, so that is the fault of your receptionist to give me misinformation. They will try to write this so they sound like this was our fault for not knowing that they don't carry all the equipment, need licensed plumbers, etc., but we know exactly what was told to us on the phone and exactly how the situationw as handled and it was handled poorly.  We stand by our original reivew and will choose to use another company in the future.

"If I could give 10 stars, I would. My water heater started spewing out water at 5PM on an unsuspecting Wednesday evening. I called several local businesses that offered â 24 hourâ service, with no luck coming out that evening. However, I received a call around 7PM from Adam Langridge, the owner of Otter Plumber. He said he would be able to come out to my house by 8PM, which he did. He took a look at the water heater, and he said that I needed it replaced, which did not come as a big surprise considering the unit was over 12 years old. We discussed what options I had, and how to proceed with the replacement. Ultimately, I purchased a brand-new water heater the following day from a local hardware store, and he said that he would go pick it up and would install it the same day. He didnâ t even charge me for the evening house call. He picked up the unit in the afternoon, the following day, and installed the unit within 2 hours, having everything finished by 5PM. From start to finish, it took less than 24 hours to get a new water heater replaced!!! You cannot find a more reliable and efficient worker!!! I would hire Adam 10 out of 10 times without thinking about it twice. Thank you Otter!!!"
