Best Businesses in Indiana

After getting  ripped off by a few high priced big name companies,  I found Paul Henderson.  Since that time, Paul has always done my plumbing  repairs. He has done them right the first time and his prices are very reasonable.  He's a personable guy who's easy to talk to. I highly  recommend him!

Best customer service! Friendly and always on-time. I've had them help me multiple times. 100% satisfied with service and rates!

Outstanding Plumber! We are new to Brownsburg and a coworker recommended Cornwell's. Their pricing is very fair, scheduling was easy, and the work was top notch!

We needed an expansion tank installed on our hot water heater and the first plumber we called, quoted us an absurd amount. We called Cornwell's; the price was good and what we expected. The technician that came out was helpful and knowledgeable. He told us some things we should consider doing in the future but did not try to oversell us on anything.

I wish I found Cornwell's the first day we moved to Brownsburg. They will be the only plumber we call from now on.

The folks at Mishler Plumbing in Brownsburg are as professional and honest as the day is long. I appreciate having local, small businesses like this one that I can rely on. Thanks Mishlers!

We had a water softner put in place a few months ago and I have to say it has been a huge improvement.  The staff was wonderful and professional.  Danny, the owner came out personally and gave the quote since a mutual friend recommended him.  I love my new water heater.  You are my plumber for life!

For HVAC in the Bloomington area this group is hard to beat. You can call them with confidence that they will do it well. If you are not sure and want a personal contact ask for Kelly Smith and he will see you right.

Very Professional!  Great Work!  Use them often...if your looking for a good reliable Plumber or HVAC (they do this too!)...I highly recommend and they won't make you take out a 2nd Mortgage to get your work completed!

My 1940s So. Bro rental that I'd purchased a few years ago had experienced root growth in the main drain and after years being dormant, it began backing up with use.  I'd already paid Just Drains to clear my main drain (rude, never again), and they went in from the line in the yard.  Now I had yet another issue that needed attention.  On Valentine's Day, a Sunday, in the snow.  

The renters had neglected to keep me informed of the bad situation that had progressed into an emergency, simply shutting the basement door, and we were now in deep sh*t (literally, ankle deep).  I was absolutely mortified and in tears after contacting someone to help me out earlier to no avail.

After calling a few places, I finally spoke to someone at Powerhouse and got a quote for $175 - same day.  The owner arrived to my mess and was very friendly and considerate of the situation.  He went above and beyond, ensuring that he ran the snake out to the street more than the average job to be sure it wouldn't soon happen again.  

As everything began to drain, he then cleaned up the mess and hosed down the basement so I wouldn't have to.  Of course once it dried I had additional sanitizing to do, but I was so happy with the experience that I told everyone about it.  Best worst Valentine's Day ever!

Now that I'm looking through my reviews, I realized that this MUST be added, despite the time that's passed, because I still recommend them to my friends.  

If only I could find an equally good electrician. Anyone?

Kitchen sink was clogged.  Tech used industrial snake (plug-in version) so very powerful.
It did concern me that he was going to bust the pipe, but assured me it wouldn't.  
Days later, realized a leak in the basement.  Knew it was because of the plumber drilling out
the clog.  Water damage to ceiling and drywall!  Another tech came out and determined the 1st tech pierced a hole in the interior piping.....as I feared.   It was at first a hassle to get them to
pay for the clean up, but they used Indiana Restoration and paid for everything.  Although,
I did pay upfront for the drain clog like $200.

Just got a clogged pipe close to the toilet. They arrived promptly but estimate was $450. I told them no way I was going to pay that much. Technician asked how much was I willing to pay and I said no more than $250 since it was an easy fix. He said he had to call his boss. Came back and said ok, his boss said could do the job for $250. What the heck? That made me even more upset. These people are robbing customers just because  they are in need. Then I told him I would pay for the visit/estimate but was not having the job done by them.s He said it was $65, but would only bill me $30... I'm still confused!

We needed to have our (very old) sewer line replaced. We'd received a quote from another company but wanted to bid out such a large project. Carlisle was less expensive and did a very good job. They gave us multiple options and quotes as well as their recommendations on how to proceed. The sewer was a tight squeeze between houses, trees, and our gas line. They dug it up and replaced it, as well as some additional plumbing inside to reroute a pipe without any incidents. They were very good at explaining to me what they were doing and were courteous and professional when asking me to run water to test the line. I would recommend them for future plumbing projects.

I've used these guys several times for various home remodel and repair work. They arrive on time and work all day getting your job done. They are sometimes a bit expensive in how they price things, but if you talk to the owner, Chad Christian, he will work with you for the best deal that fair for all and affordable for you. Estimates are normally not fee, trip charge is about $85 and will count towards any repair work you may have done. They have done AC, plumbing, wiring / electrical, rood, gutter, and construction work for me. The crew does good work and tries their best to not make messes and cleans up as much as they can at the end of each day, but messes are expected in any type remodel. So they do a good job. I will use them again as needed. I recommend them for your home repair needs.

Beware of false coupon prices and services they claim to perform.  Tech claimed to have inserted a cable in the clean out, said cable got stuck in clean out pipe after 2 feet and was unable to unclog drain.   Problem is,  3 other companies verified there's no clean out pipe for him to have inserted a cable to attempt to unclog the drain.  Also, they have coupons that advertise $90 Drain Cleaning Special with free camera inspection, but will charge an additional $49.00 for diagnostic even though it doesn't list the charge on the coupon.

Very poor professionalism, which makes me question their work. My husband scheduled an appointment last week, got our confirmation call two days before our scheduled appointment for Sat. @ 7:30 am. Was a No Show - No Call Left them a voice mail. Called back again on Monday and was told it was miscommunication. They did apologize but, again, makes me think twice about having them do any work for me now. Very disappointed

In the process of selling my home, it was discovered that a pipe that was installed before we bought our house, ran underneath my neighbors driveway and would require excavation to correct.  While disappointed that we would be responsible for repairing the neighbors property we agreed to cover the repair as this situation is not my neighbors fault.  

During the inspection, the pipe was approximated as to where it was located, but could not be verified at the time, due to my neighbors car causing interference with the equipment used to identify the exact spot of the line.  

Days later, the crew arrived to begin work, and this is where we ran into problems.  While I was quoted one size (which was roughly 5x10 feet ) for the section (they believed) was the location of the pipe, they guessed incorrectly.  

They dug down approximately 7 feet and couldn't find the pipe, and it turns out they dug in the wrong spot.  The hole went from 4x8 and ended up being closer to 11x11.  

I let the crew finish the job, and when contacted about settling the balance, I expressed some disappointment that the crew didn't verify the pipe location before digging as the scope of the repairs has now increased because of their mistake.  As the saying goes, measure twice, cut once, at this point, the call was handed off to Mike (Terry?), who basically got on the phone and badgered me for saying I had agreed to pay for the work when the job was done (which I had), and that his crew didn't have a camera to verify the actual line placement on the day of the work ( so, apparently that's my fault).  The disrespectful way in which he came on the phone to pressure me into paying the bill and assumed no responsibility was extremely disappointing.  

I work in customer service for a living, and I have dealt with frustrated people over the years, and I can't recall having been so infuriated with the way I was treated.  I will do everything I can to warn others about the response I received for being dissatisfied with the level of work that was done.

The crew that did the work on the pipe was nice, but made mistakes, the staff that was ultimately responsible for trying to find a compromise was a complete failure.

To provide perspective I have attached a picture of the first hole they dug (wrong spot, right size), and the final hole with the repaired pipe.

They have provided several services for my rentals. they are on time  professional and try to work you into their schedule if its urgent. I also love that they dont try to sell you replacements when not needed but will help in maintaining function.

Larry Plumbing did some work in my house about a year ago, He was found by the contractor I hired back then and never had to deal with him personaly. Recently, I had a situation where my basement flooded due to a clogged outside drainage, although it took us some time to find, my first person to reach was Larry... here's where it gets fun, he picks up the phone and tells me that he has no interest to help out due to a bad past experience with the contractor I had when I was remodeling the house .. he then tells me to find someone else to fix my problems! This level of unprofessional customer dealing leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth and thought I would share so no one has to deal with this kind of issues in the future. I don't have anything negative to say about his job which has held fine, but definitely on his customer treatment and more on emergencies such as the one I just went through.

He was the only plumber who come come within 4 hours for a leak in my garage.  I should have waited.   He did find the leak in an outside faucet and repair it.  He then takes me into cutting a vent in my furnace stack to heat my garage, then drive to a hardware store 5 minutes away to buy a vent.  He was gone almost 2 hours.  When he came back he looked at another leaking outdoor faucet and told me it was not urgent, and that he wasn't available again for 3 weeks.  He charged me almost $800, most of that labor for time he wasn't even at my home.  I called someone else a few weeks later.  The second leak caused a mold problem that had to be remediated, and the furnace vent is not to code and has to be removed.  By the way, the faucet he did repair no longer works.  What a crook!
