I have found my new permanent plumber. Ken was great. I had a flood inside my downstairs due to a backed up pipe, and everything was coming out from the toilet and the tub. It was a nightmare scenario. It happened once before too.
I called Ken and he came here right away. He wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty and solve the problem, and he jumped right into things. He wasn't interested in having me sign a million forms or agree to elaborate pricing schemes. He just wanted to fix my problem, fast. He quoted me a price over the phone too, which was nice, and he stuck to it. His pricing was more than fair.
When I had the exact same problem 2 years ago, I had called some other plumbing company, and they wouldn't quote me over the phone. Now I know why. When they come out, you are stuck. You have to use whoever is there when your house is flooding. They swindled me for almost $900 for that job. They had me by the short hairs and they knew it. I hope they are out of business now.
Ken charged me $110 for the EXACT SAME JOB, and he was much more thorough. He fixed everything right away and spent some time talking about the root cause and how to fix in the future. On top of everything, he was super friendly and down to earth. He knows what he's doing, has good equipment, and his unpretentious style is welcome. I won't use anyone else in the future.
