Pros:
Friendly staff. Quality work.
Cons:
- Expensive. Charges ~$80 per visit as stated over the phone. $400+ for gas leak tests. Repair would cost $800+. New unit $6000+.
- Plumber did not wear shoe covers when in the house.
- Phone message says only opens Monday to Friday.
If they had a more reasonable price, I would have given 5 stars.
I called them to come look at a malfunctioned tankless water heater. Plumber says it's broken and needed to be replaced. I was quoted $6000+. Yikes!
Before the unit can be replaced, the gas lines needed to be checked for leaks. I agreed for the $400+ gas leak test. Plumber found leaks in the lines and says repairs would be over $800 and another test would be performed to find any additional leaks/repairs.
I decided to stop there and pay the ~$480 (for the test and visit) and shopped around. Meanwhile, the plumber calls the gas company and had my gas shut off (for safety) and I was out of, not only hot water, but central heating as well for the chilly 30F-40F weekend. The gas leak was minimal, no one in the household smelled any gas at all so this took us for a surprise.
I ended up using a different company through recommendations that did the same work for half the price. <$200 for a leak test, <$700 for repairs (includes permit), and <$3000 for a new tankless water heater and they came out during the weekend to install. Everything was done to my specifications and I'm a happy camper.
If you're looking for a quality work from master plumbers, these are your guys. If you're willing to shop around and research, there are cheaper alternatives around town.
EDIT: See photo for price statement. If that charge is incorrect, feel free to refund me the correct amount.
