Edit/Update: I had a second plumber come out and bid the job, they did the same thing 1-Tom-Plumber did (run camera to locate issue) but they found the pipe that needed replaced was on the opposite side of the yard where 1-Tom-Plumber had marked the yard. So I had to pay the second plumber to basically do the same thing 1-Tom-Plumber had done but it was correct this time, then I had to have 811 come out and mark the yard again because they had previously thought we would be digging on the other side of the yard so didn’t mark some of the lines. That’s 811s issue, not 1-Tom-Plumber. The plumber I ended up using also told me that it wasn’t okay that 1-Tom-Plumber did not reinstall my toilet and left it off as it can emit sewer gasses into the house, and they should have plugged it at the very least. So at this point I’m unsure what I even paid 1-Tom-Plumber for. I tried to get in contact with them. I understand they came out and did work, took the toilet off, ran the camera, located and removed a small clog in the line, but for the repairs that needed to take place being on the other side of the house from where they marked and told me personally where they would be digging, and then left our toilet off to emit sewer gas into the house, I’m a little irritated. I did try to get in contact with 1-Tom-Plumber again, spoke to the owner, told me he would talk to the technician and get back to me. He never did, I followed up via text as well, no reply. I was hoping for a fair resolution so I could keep a positive review up and not have to go back in and add this development. I’m not here to be a Karen, or ask for a full refund or anything, just thought they might figure out a fair resolution for us. Original review still stands below.

Yesterday my plumbing started backing up into my house but was still slowly draining, looked on Google and found 1-Tom-Plumber as a 24 hour service. I called and spoke to Brent last night and after speaking with him about my issue, we decided it could wait until tomorrow. In the past I’ve felt like some plumbers wanted to come out same day to charge after hours emergency fees, but Brent wasn’t pushy, and I appreciated that. Brent put me on the schedule for 9am the following morning. At 7:45am the next day I got a phone call from Matt who told me he would be there in 30 minutes. Matt arrived at 8:15a (a whole 45 minutes early WOOHOO!) and was able to locate a clog, he ran a camera and beyond the clog found a busted drainage pipe in my yard. They were quick to schedule a dig within the next week to fully rectify my issue and luckily my insurance policy covers the work that will need to be done, and the team at 1-Tom-Plumber was happy to work with me and my insurance team to get this covered. Really appreciate the 1-Tom-Plumber team and their sense of urgency, and the quality of their work so far.
