Cady Plumbing was a referral from a very trusted friend. In researching Cady, we saw that they are a family-owned business in operation since 1955.
We realized that plumbing issues which crop up during times of colder weather may result in a bit of a wait due to high demand. While not everyone can, or will want to, delay depending upon their plumbing issue, we held out for about two weeks until things were less busy.
When Kenny, the Service Manager, and Danny both arrived, the first thing Kenny stated was that we should have definitely let them know it was worst than what we stated by phone, and that they would have made it out much more quickly. We replied we were okay in that the water from the cracked pipe was on a concrete basement floor with a drain, and that a bucket or two caught the excess water only when we needed to turn on the water. Again, this was based on our specific issue.
Kenny and Danny did their assessment, based on the info provided, and quickly and expediently installed a temporary shutoff valve on the affected pipe running down to the basement. They then recommended an excellent tile removal expert in order to determined where the pipe actually was cracked in the upper bath in order to replace it.
One tile was removed in the shower area upstairs to expose the piping. Kenny and Danny returned, found the actual cracked pipe really quickly, and were able to instead make the repairs through the opposite bath's drywall under the vanity, eliminating additional tile to be removed from the other bath, which would have been quite costly.
Each two visits, they arrived on time, were courteous, professional, honest, and efficient. On the second visit, they completed the major repairs within 1-1/2 hours. One could not tell work was performed, as everything was left neat and tidy.
As for billing, Kenny was very thorough in explaining the process upfront on the first visit, and no issues, whatsoever.
The tile expert also returned and re-installed the one tile, just as effortlessly and quickly as he had removed it.
For what it's worth, we had a large company provide an estimate prior to Cady Plumbing--part of our taking it slow, in spite of the leak. We were told all the tile in the shower would require removal, as well as the shower pan, with a quote that went through the stratosphere, and that was just for the plumbing--not the tile!
So very glad and so very pleased with the professional and accurate work did by Cady Plumbing.
We will be returning to Cady Plumbing in late spring/early summer for some plumbing work in our kitchen.
