Best Businesses in Florida

If there were more than 5 stars 8 Flags would get them. These people are professional, competent and unbelievably nice. In a world where customer service is a thing of the past, they stand out. They came on time, every time, they wore masks, they wore booties on their feet, they cleaned up when finished. Their work is perfection. All of the workers are competent and friendly and Monica and Haley in the office are the nicest people you'll ever deal with. Our bathroom project has had many ups and downs but 8 Flags was the shining spot in the entire project. Thank you 8 Flags!!!

I bought a home and the plumbing was in a real bad way. Pipes were bursting. The previous owner had obviously DIY'd the plumbing.  

Well Kevin came out and redid all the plumbing in my home on a moment's notice--over a weekend no less! His price was very fair and the quality high. From experience I can say his work is far better than the work of the local big plumbing companies--the big guys just ain't got no quality control.

Anyway, I'm sticking with this company from now on. I can now sleep tight knowing I got good pipes!

Let me start this review with some search engine keywords for those in desperate straits for a quality plumber:
Slab leak
Plumber
Repiping
Replumbing

My story (briefly):
The water company left me a hanging placard on my door indicating I was running 40-50 gallons an hour.
They suggested a leak detection company (see review for Leak Seekers).
Options given once a slab leak was found was 1) repair leak location, 2) re-pipe the house.
Kwik Fix (and others) was suggested for either option.

The solution:
I chose Kwik Fix for the job because they were able to fit me in the quickest.  I'm pleased with everything about the service.  They sent a couple of guys to repair the leak.  They explained what they'd do, and that fixing the leak was a temporary fix.  They suggested a re-pipe to solve the problem permanently.  I agreed, partly because they explained that since the leak was near the edge of the house, adjoining the garage, with a place for the water to go (pressure was less, so less likely to blow my tiles somewhere on my first floor), I could wait.  They were willing to start the work in 3 business days.  They gave me the peace of mind to wait a week while I entertained family for a long planned and anticipated visit).  They showed up the day after my family left.  The crew, Chris, Cole, and Charles, were polite, careful, quick, and competent.  They said maybe 4 days but finished it in 3.  They also helped with a very simple (to them) cartridge swap in my master shower faucet. It was very difficult for my disabled wife to turn on/adjust.  Chris took a few minutes at the end of a long day to not only swap the cartridge, but clean the shower head too.

Overall, I was very pleased   They explained anything I asked about.  They cleaned up (as much as one should expect) after each day.  My water pressure and time to hot water at the farthest faucet is still great.  I think they did their best to make that happen.

The cost was $7600 for a 3 bath, 2800 sq ft house.  That seemed reasonable.  Especially for the prompt and thorough service.

Finally, there are two business entries in Yelp for this company.  I chose the one with the lower rating because a couple of the reviews were a little dubious in their validity, especially the 1 star review because of the way one of their trucks was driving.

We had a very unusual and unexpected plumbing issue when this plumber was called out to do what we thought would be an easy service call. If we'd had a less experienced plumber on the job, it could have really turned into a mess. But the plumber from St. John's Plumbing was a seasoned professional and he went above and beyond the call of duty to find a solution for our unique & unexpected plumbing problem. It was truly a blessing because that was our first time using St. John's Plumbing and I haven't seen that kind of commitment to service by many others. I'm very grateful for his help!

I got back from vacation recently to a door hanger from JEA stating that I would need my backflow preventer to be inspected as part of a routinely scheduled check. I think they send them out every few years.

Included was an estimate from a competitor for $395. It's not huge money, but I thought that I would call someone else and get a quote just to make sure that it was a fair price. I found Bob's as a preferred vendor on the JEA website so I gave them a call.

I spoke with Wendy at Bob's backflow, and she informed me that they could beat the price on my previous estimate and that if the unit could be repaired instead of replaced I might even be able to get it done for less. Great news!

I scheduled it, they made the repair promptly and were able to simply repair the unit. So to recap - the work was done on time and under budget. How often does that happen these days? Thanks guys!

Not the same company since Kevin (who was professional, courteous and knew what he was doing) is gone now. Quick response but awful - really awful experience this time. Both who came didn't seem to have a clue. After a few hours, a flood and damage, they finally resolved the issue but made a total mess - and I mean real mess and didn't clean up. They couldn't even reinstall our brand new $ 500 toilet correctly so it didn't move or wobble back and forth. Did not want them returning to fix what they had done so had to pay another plumber to have it replaced correctly. We learned while it was being redone the idiot didn't remove all of the grout and caulk previously used so it would sit stable and only used caulk, not grout. Run don't walk away from them. Never again.

Do your research this company is horrible!!!! Owner will not return calls back on a brand new system in the middle of July that hasn't been working sense I got it.  Had to call and make like I wanted to buy a new system with a different name, he called me back in 2 min. If you want it done right go with someone else!  If you don't want call these guys 20 times a day to get them to return your phone call go with someone else. Look at the reviews from other sites they are not going to survive.

Do not have this company pump out your septic system. They left a considerable amount of solid waste in the septic tank, even after I told him he left too much in the tank.
Also, they have you sign a contract that contains 3 full pages of conditions. I consider that to be a bit over the top when they are just pumping out a septic tank.
