Best Businesses in Indiana

Had an error code on my 5 1/2 year old hot water heater so it wouldn't kick on.  The son came by and looked at it (for 2 mins) and said I needed a new hot water heater after consulting with his father.  Quoted me $1,900 for a new unit with installation.
I called the Mfg (AO Smith) myself and found it was still under warranty. Tech Support told me the code was a dirty flame sensor and sent me instructions on how to fix it. Took all of 10 mins, cost me $0, and it's working perfectly fine.
Do your homework, call the manufacturer, and get multiple estimates if you need work.

Great service , quick response, and best pricing.  We talked to several companies everyones pricing was double.

Installed a new water softener quickly.
No BS. No high pressure sales. Quality work, quality product

I had an plumbing emergency at my rental house and Ritchie P not only spoke with my property manager but did an outstanding job fixing the problem. Do not go with a cheap option like my rental did in the first place. Hire hope and they will do the job like it's supposed to be done. Absolutely so thankful for this man!!

We came home from dinner out and found that our sump pump had died and the basement was slowly flooding.  I called Seriously 24-7 and they sent out Andrew Miller who came right over from another job.  He was very understanding of the situation, explained all the options and once I choose, he got right to work.  One of the best workmen I have ever dealt with, especially considering the late hour.  I will definitely be calling them again for my next plumbing needs.

These guys are great. I came back home from a 3 day road trip and held my poop in the whole time because I didn't want to use a yucky gas station dumper. When I made it home I showed no mercy to the toilet and let loose. This was not smart because I completely flooded the toilet and it was clogged. I called these fellas up and they fixed it right up and everything is working again.

I hired them in Jan 2016 to fix broke furnace.  This cost over $450.  Broke again beginning of Sept.  (only worked about 6 weeks after repair) I went online to set up a repair service.  Online I was given the option of when I would like a call -morning -afternoon- or evening. I chose eve because I was at work.  As soon as I sent request they called me 9am...scheduled them to come out next day between 2-5.  I was at work and had to have someone go to my house to be there.  of course they showed up over an hour early told me my scheduled apt was 1-4.. .  Fixed again for over $400.  worked 3 days,  broke again.  Called them 3rd time scheduled appointment again 2-5 let them know that I was not happy they showed up early last time.  Again they showed up 1 HOUR before scheduled apt. and tried to convince me that I was wrong with the scheduled time again.... Was given estimate of over $400 I let them know that I have already paid way to much for it not to be fixed and that is when and ONLY them did the guy suggest a new furnace.  My furnace is less than 6 years old and if they could not have fixed it I should have been told on first visit.  I was in to deep and had to try to get it fixed so I scheduled another apt again 2-5 I made a huge deal to the lady on the phone that they keep showing up early and no one is home and that I was VERY unhappy about it.  I made sure that she understood that no one would be there before 2pm!   so they showed up for appointment at noon  2HOURS early  unbelievable ........ paid AGAIN to have it fixed .  It lasted 2 weeks.   I had to max out my CC to give them all my money and this does not help my credit to get a loan to get a new furnace with ANOTHER  comp.  It will be a long cold winter because I made the huge mistake with going with a company that cant even schedule properly and have techs that cant even tell when a furnace cant be fixed until they have made over $1000 off of you. extremely disappointed and cold.

My experience with this company was very pleasant and professional. I initiated a request for someone to come out online and was called the following weekday. The plumber was extremely courteous and professional.

Mike built us a trash can cabinet  for under our counter. He was on time, reasonably priced, and did great work. It looks like it was part of the original kitchen floor plan. We plan on using him  for several other projects.

On time, nice guy, honest, reasonably priced, completed job.  Exactly what I was looking for...

Called at 3:30 came right away. Quoted over the phone and did not try to sell us on a program.
Friendly clean cut staff.
We had a long running issue with our main line that turned out to be a ATT cable through the line. They took pictures and had us up and running. No need for us to be present for the work to be done.
Hope we never need them again but they are who I'll call.

My last two experiences with Howald have been very disappointing. We are on their scheduled maintenance plan and have been a customer for six years. Shortly after their last maintenance visit in the spring we noticed water all over our basement floor. Turns out the condensate drain was blocked, as it obviously wasn't cleaned as part of the scheduled maintenance. They sent a tech out to fix it (can't do the job right but always have time to do the job over) at no charge and we were left to clean up the mess. Today they were supposed to come out again for a maintenance check. They called yesterday to confirm the appointment but DIDN'T SHOW. I called their office and received a call back stating they had a tech out sick and had to reschedule their appointments. Too bad they didn't call me on the number I gave them to reach me, even though the person I spoke to stated their CSR log showed a note with the correct number and it also showed they called a different one. I guess poor service, cutting corners and failure to follow directions is simply becoming the new normal these days...

12/8/22 UPDATE: Howald rescheduled, sent a tech on time, and David did a great job answering my questions and giving our furnace a thorough inspection. I'm hoping my prior experience is the exception rather than the rule.

I will give them two stars because they got our drain running for one day. Emergency after-hours service is $109 even though the website doesn't really indicate that. It is $70 for a service call during business hours and then they refund the money if they need to use their machine which is $250 for an hour. We only got 40 minutes of the machine service and paid the $250.  The technician indicated everything was running fine and we should be good going forward. The next day our same drain was backing up again. They want to start all over and charge another $250 even though we didn't get our full hour of service yesterday... I called a competitor and they're going to come out tomorrow and do our line with the camera inspection for $88, I guess I should have went with that in the first place.

These guys have done most of the plumbing in my house over the last eight years. Competitive pricing and a no games. It's also nice to know that the owner is a cop. You can feel safe having him work in your home!

Mark was GREAT to work with. I called after hours, he picked up right away and after explaining the problem with my water heater he was able to get to the problem right away. He even sent me a picture of what the issue was and explained what had to be done to get it fixed.  One of the nicest and most pleasant experiences I have had. He is honest and upfront! I HIGHLY recommend him.

Thank you Godby for coming out in an emergency call. I had no air conditioning and my 90 year old mother coming to my house. Adam fixed the problem in a very professional manner. A big, big thank you to Stephanie for her patience and calmness. You told me you would see it through and you did. Thank you.

My parents and I got a flyer from Action Air for their different services. These include Water Heater, Drain Cleaning, Sewer Water Line, and others. We recently encountered a clog with a kitchen sink, and thought to give their service a try.

Scheduled an appointment for them to come and diagnose the issue. Their phone service is a bit weird, they have an operator to take phone calls, and someone will call back. This seems inefficient to me, but different business, different operations. When the plumber went out take a look, their diagnosis was they are unable to run the drain machine, and frozen pipes. They mentioned to me that they might need to replace the pipes and plumbing. They said they will consult with their boss for a quote during business hours.

That's understandable, but I wanted to try someone else. So I called for a second opinion, and was actually referred to a company named Commercial Sewer Cleaning. They said they also had a lot of calls ahead and might not be the same day, but left my number. They actually called back the same day, and was able to come take a look at the clog as well. I told them the diagnosis from Action Air, but they told me that shouldn't be the issue. The current piping might be old, but it does have insulation and is not exposed to the elements. They were later on able to snake the pipe and clear it up.

So Action Air gave me the wrong diagnosis. It seems like they want more work and money to replace the pipes. Which would still not resolve the issue cause there will be no change to the clog further down the pipe. To me, their plumbers do not seem to have the knowledge and experience of how to correctly diagnose problems, and it is unprofessional.

Sumers is the only company we've had experience with, and I can't imagine using anyone else! We've had Nick both times we've had issues (a failed sump pump and failed back up battery), and he has  be been beyond helpful! He takes the time to thoroughly answer our many questions, and explains things in layman's terms so we can fully understand the process. Nick even gave us a heads up on future issues we may experience with our water heater and gave us a written estimate so that we can start planning ahead. We joined the Sumer's monthly plan which has saved us a lot of money on service visits and the service work itself? So I highly would recommend considering that option. Overall, Sumers has been extremely helpful and in line with other estimates we've received from other companies.

After receiving my estimate today it is clear to me how they can afford to constantly run television or radio ads. The amount they charge for basic plumbing issues is not within reason and we'll above that of their competitors. Based on my recent experience, I can tell you that the Peterman Brothers are not putting their money into hiring employees with people skills and good customer service. Word of mouth has always been the best form of advertisement, but after seeing many negative reviews similar to mine it is even more clear to me why they are spending so much on commercials. In closing, please do you your own research about hiring this company, but given today's shenanigans I would rather hire the Mario Brothers.
