Best Businesses in New Orleans, LA
Dang! I've found the Elvis of bathtubs! It's a ruby cast iron claw foot and I want to drown myself in it... or at least take a phenomenal bath in it.
I had been searching for kitchen & bath showrooms (see previous review for another similar, not-so-similar kitchen & bath place, BC's) and I had lost all hope for the days of my youth when my parents would drag us to these places and we'd go running around jumping in bathtubs. Seems like I was going to have to just pick one out from a catalogue without seeing anything in real life.
Sidenote: I don't jest when I say that a bathroom is possibly the most important room in the house. I've been obsessed since I could walk. I currently have a bathroom straight out of my nightmares (seriously, these night terrors have to stop). And now I'm in the process of putting together my first one and it's a *daunting* process. The Plumbing Warehouse makes this daunting process just a bit easier.
They have red faucets! They have an array of tubs! They can help you put together the bathroom of your dreams!
The showroom is in a bit of an upheaval and the sales lady, Emily apologized for this (though seriously, it wasn't that bad). She then proceeded to help us in a way that I most appreciate in a sales person. That is, she asked questions, was helpful, and was not overbearing. And she seemed to know just what I wanted (um, am I that obvious?)
Keep in mind that if you want custom stuff, you can get it (tons of catalogues) but they do have some basics with a day or two turnaround. Naturally, whatever I'm interested in will take two weeks, but hey, when you have a historical house with all the permit nonsense you have to deal with, I think I'm looking at not getting this bathroom started for about two months.
But that's besides the point. I'll be using this place for my tub (seriously, they have it all: acrylic, cast iron, copper and hundreds of choices they'll show you in a catalogue, including my Elvis tub) and sink (here's looking at you, violet resin vessel!)

Very Professional, master plumbers who know what they are doing, reasonable price and job is done right on time will recommend
325 Hickory Ave, Harahan, LA 70123
I had a great experience with a new company. I found Copperhead Plumbing online and I have a block in my sewer line. Justin the owner came out and on a Sunday morning, fixed my issue and told me how I can prevent future problems. He was on time and on price. He has a lot of experience but he just started out on his own recently. I will use him again.
LaPlace, LA 70068
Quick response, very friendly, reasonable price, and overall great plumbing service. I would call him again.

My experience with Julius was amazing. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and came fully equipped with tools and solutions to access my plumbing issues. He listened to my questions/concerns and made me feel secure with his recommendations. I really appreciate how he did not try up-sale products/services I did not inquire about or need.

I've used this company for construction projects since 2013. They are reliable and professional. pricing is reasonable. I truly feel like they have my best interest in mind. They are also very good about helping me make the best decisions when issues come up. I don't even bother getting quotes from other plumbers at this point.

We paid over $33,000.00 for this service. I want to take this opportunity to point out a few things that have tremendously irritated me about this job. Firstly, we had been billed $3140.00 for sand fill. We had to spend an additional $2500.00 to replace our lawn because the blue tarp and the huge mounds of soil from beneath our home smothered our lawn for well over 1 month. Not only did we have to tolerate huge mounds of dirt surrounding our home for over 1 month which also inconvenienced our next door neighbor, we were not given the option to backfill with sand at the start of the job. It would have been a far more efficient, cleaner operation had the soil been carted away at the start of the job and I would not have had to threaten legal action to make the situation right on the back end of the job due to the huge mounds of dirt that were not backfilled into the trenches. Afterall, this company was not bearing the burden of paying for the sand fill because we have been billed for it. Therefore, we should have been given that option rather than being greatly inconvenienced. We also would not have had to bear an excessive additional expense had our lawn been free of the obstruction because we would have had to only cover the trench after it had been backfilled.
Since the sand fill occurred after a futile attempt to back fill with the original soil had been completed, and the Supervisor was ready to sign off on the job, we lack confidence in the integrity of the sand fill job. Our home has been constructed with an abundance of pilings beneath our foundation, however, the integrity of our foundation has been breached by the tunneling requisite of this plumbing work. Had the sand fill occurred after replacing the plumbing pipes, we would feel far more confident in the structural support beneath our slab. After backfilling the trench in my front yard, sink holes began to form over night because the workers had not packed the soil tightly enough to adequately refill the trench. I fear that we will eventually have to have our home shored as a result of your company's failure to adequately back fill beneath the structure. The workmen from Boh Brothers who were replacing the sewer pipes on my street affirmed my conviction that the sand fill should have been done originally to secure the integrity of the foundation beneath our slab. Our plumber was also appalled with the situation because they had recommended having the pipes replaced by means of tunneling and witnessed what your company had put us through.
Additionally, I wish we had the opportunity to have our own man do our cement repair and brick work. The man sent to do that work did a substandard job. There is not a smooth transition between the original cement carport and the patchwork performed by the man sent to our home. The brick work does not match the original brick work lining our driveway as well. Mortar is all over the bricks and my brick man will have to break up that work in order to redo it, which is another additional expense after already having paid $475.00 for that work, as well as recoating the cement in order to blend the repaired area in better since it is adjacent to our back entrance. We expected those areas to be returned to their original condition because we have an extremely well built home which we routinely maintain. Had we had the option, I would have had my own vendor perform the service to my standard without the additional stress and aggravation.
These matters were handled shabbily and I in good faith could never recommend your service to anyone. I just pray that the job was properly done and that we do not have future problems resulting from this job. Our toilets are still giving us trouble, although not to the same extent as they previously did. Consumers should never be treated the way we were by not having been given options to have the work done to our standards and by not having an English-speaking crew member on site to explain the scope of the work at the end of the day to be performed the next day so that we could better understand the process. We could have participated in the decision making on the sand fill option and the repair options in order to have the finish work completed to our standards. After all, we paid a premium for your service and it did not have to be so extraordinarily stressful throughout the process as well as moving forward. You have little regard for your customers!

When we had a plumbing issue Magic Rooter gave us the best price by far and got the job done. The owner was really on top of his business and we really appreciated is honesty and efforts. Would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs there services!

At first, they seamed great and this would have been a 5 star review. They missed a leak during the inspection but were very nice and came out to fix it. Then I asked about a second leak that I believe they missed in the sewer line connected to my upstairs toilet (I opened the ceiling and could see that it was leaking at the elbow connection in the sewer line). After a few emails back and forth in which Tunnel Vision accused me of trying to scam them and threatened legal action if I posted a bad internet review, I decided to fix this leak myself so as not to deal with them anymore. Nothing that I said in this review is slanderous so I hope I do not see a letter from a lawyer! Proceed with caution if using this company.

We live in a multi unit building and needed to have our air conditioner recharged with R410-A since our landlord wasn't able to fix it quickly. Kimberly and her team contacted me back through yelp almost immediately following my RFP. She was the first to respond, throughout in her response and a good fair price. The technicians who showed up were kind, professional and prepared for the job. They also came next day no hassle. Our unit needed more than a normal recharge and the gentlemen gave me a flat fee which was nice to do. While I don't think air conditioning repairs is their primary business I definitely think they are at the top of their game in this area!

Two weeks ago I had Lenny with All American Plumbing come out to do a bid on a large job in our warehouse. I explained to him how I've had multiple companies being so non-responsive and it's been difficult to get companies to get back with me. I thought he was going to be different, however, we had to literally call today for the 3rd or 4th time asking if we can please get a quote. His response was very unacceptable saying well you got a couple other bids and if it's all about price then... I then stated, it's not only about pricing, but I would be an idiot if I didn't at least get a couple bids for such a large job. I said his actions of being non responsive, not getting us a quote in a timely manor, and his excuse was... man, I've just been very busy Yeah, me too. I run 4 companies and I never just blow people off like that. Sick of other business owners excuses. Just do the right thing. If you can't help or too busy, that's fine, just tell me and I'm 100% certain I'll understand.
