Best Businesses in Minnesota

Super down-to-earth and easy to work with. Prompt and friendly. Have used them twice, thumbs up all the way!

I called about my non-working water heater flooding the basement at 8:30 a.m., and we had a new one just 4 hours later. (They were even on another job when I called.) They are professional, respectful, and friendly to dogs. My heater was over 20 years old, so it was overdue.

I am a General contractor and maintain and over see several properties.
Commercial and residential.  We have used Gust Plumbing for 20 years.   They are dependable, honest, and fair priced.  We don't use anyone else because they are so good.  I highly recommend them for any plumbing projects.

Lange's Plumbing & Heating have provided us with superior service for years. Jim and his crew have been quick to respond to our needs, efficient in their work and always priced fairly. It would be easy to take advantage when there is no heat in the middle of a cold Minnesota winter or suddenly you find your hot water heater has failed........they simply respond like professionals.

Fast, fair, friendly and with the quality workmanship we need. For us it is Lange's Plumbing and Heating!

Friendly and informative on the phone in helping me to select disposer.  Plumber came when promised. He too was friendly and competent.  Cleaned up after his install.  This is a multi-generation family business, and I appreciate that.

We had a repeat issue a few weeks after they had been out to auger our toilet. It was replugged, and Kyle was sent back out. He reaugered, took apart toilet, replaced seal. They gave a discount site to coming back, which was unexpected, but very much appreciated. Their costs are very reasonable. Kyle is thoughtful, timely, left everything extremely clean, and was a pleasure to work with. I'm hoping we don't have further plumbing issues, but if we do, I know we will be sure to use them again.

Great team! Kevin came out and helped me clear my main line drain and was great. They also took video which was extremely helpful.

iM NOT THE TYPE OF PERSON THAT WRITES THESE REVIEWS BUT i FEEL ITS IMPORTANT TO DO SO. A long story short my boiler system was throwing alarms off in my house and so I shut it off. So we called these guys out from from Foley branch. They were very nice my wife said, well they said we had a catastrophic event. And we can try to fix it but it will happen again. So we need to replace the 6 year old boiler and it will be 12600 dollars. So I decided to get a second opinion. Im glad I did because the 2nd person  came out and took of the top of  boiler and said this is your problem. It is really dirty and here is how you clean it and how to take care of it .  I've  heard this many times about this company about just trying to up sell you on everything. Morel of the story always get a second opinion. UNbeleivable how they get away with this.

I was in  desperate need of a plumber and I checked around, called a few places, deciding on Aqua City Plumbing.  They were kind and very helpful on the phone so we made an appointment for the same day. They called before they got here and they were on time.  Brandon was my plumber. He was so quick and thorough, he was done in a jiffy!  Kudos to Brandon and Aqua City Plumbing.  I can't thank you enough!  Plus the price was unbelievably reasonable. I will use them again! Thank you, Sue Minneapolis, Mn

They've helped us out a couple times with leaking, corroded valves. The plumbers and scheduling staff are friendly, efficient, knowledgeable. Well done! Much appreciated!

I called a few companies and Barnes said they could fix our kitchen faucet a day later than I'd hoped, but still within the week. Sad to say, the guy showed up to fix the faucet and first said his office hadn't said anything about a faucet. Then he said he didn't have parts but that I could hunt down the parts myself, or that he could sell me a new faucet starting at about $300. He blamed their very nice secretary for not asking me enough questions. They don't stock the parts (they only carry parts for 2 brands, not even including Kohler). I'm disappointed, and hope that others have a better experience.

Blaylock did a near-complete sewer replacement for us in Richfield, and we were very satisfied. We had three companies out to look at the situation, which was a sewer lateral damaged heavily by roots and one portion of transite pipe that had rotted out. One recommended only doing a spot fix of the sewer lateral, and two recommended redoing the whole line. Blaylock's price was only slightly higher than the one who was just going to replace a small segment!

My only complaint is that they were a little casual about the bid and the scheduling. We never got a formal written bid or estimate, and they took a while to nail down the exact date. (Though, it was not urgent, and they knew that.) But when they actually did the work, they were awesome! They were very efficient, with just two guys working, did almost all the work by noon same-day. They were very careful about managing where they put the piles of dirt, so the lawn was not damaged more than necessary. Since they were ahead of schedule and below budget, they even offered to re-sod where they'd dug the holes, for only a little more money.

They installed a clean-out in the front of the house, and were careful to cut it down low, so there wouldn't be unsightly PVC sticking up. We added a couple new plantings ourselves after they left, and the lawn looked better than before! The final bid came right in the middle of their estimate range, even with the sodding.

Of course, only time will tell if the new line will hold up better than the old, but assuming they're as conscientious about the sewer work as they were about all the stuff we could see ourselves, I have confidence their job will stand the test of time.

Would definitely recommend.

Hi there, giving them 2 stars as the tech that came out very nice and polite and the company did respond pretty quickly to my dispute. Was hearing some strange sounds from my boiler so asked neighbors who to contact that was affordable/trustworthy. Was referred to Forrest heating. Called number for them and was surprised that they had answered as Cities1. They explained the had purchased Forrest Heating and he was now working for them. Set an appointment to have it looked at the next week.

Rep came out and was nice and respectful and had me crank up my heat to see what happened in less than ten min he let me know the unit was heating too high so the High Limit Temp sensor/modual was bad and would run out to the truck to call hiss boss and check and see how much it would cost to fix. After talking to his boss he came back in and let me know it would be about $700 to fix. I asked for a breakdown of the cost and he said he would have his boss call back to give me a breakdown. He also warned me that his boss would likely try to sell me a new boiler given mine was a bit old. Given the cost I said I would have to get another opinion before making a decision.

Called another group and explained the condition, part needed and the cost which was met with a laugh.  I will admit we didn't discuss the specific product number but I informed him it was a Bryant unit from the 1970's and gave home the model and he stated the part itself should be no more than $100-150 and takes 10 min to install. He then asked if I had turned the temp up on the sensor and turned it back down as it can be common for them to stick? I tried it per his instructions and now everything is working fine again, no $700 fix.

Fast forward a month later a bill shows up in the mail (which I fully expected) for $205 for the 15 min visit (which I did not expect) Emailed the company given the cost and being less than satisfied with the $700 quote for a sticky switch and the trying to sell me a new boiler for a minor issue and to their credit the owner got back to me right away. Politely tried explaining to me that $205 is the minimum charge for a house call and that their rates are competitive and even for small jobs they have to bill for more time to make it worth their while. We ended our conversation at that.

In conclusion, I'm giving them 2 stars as they came out on time and were responsive to my dispute, but I would not recommend them based on their trip costs, parts cost, calculation of time billed for and in my opinion an emphasis on getting you to do the most expensive things not trying and explaining other alternatives.

After calling another local plumber and leaving an email and them not getting back to me, I called Dad's plumbing and talked to a real person who said they would have the plumber call me back soon, he called within thirty minutes, told me where he was and about how long to get to my place, and got right to work. Friendly, easy to talk to, and good at explaining what he was doing and why.  He and his comrade fixed the drainage issue and got my kitchen back to working order for the upcoming holiday.  I would highly recommend them, even if he would not have been able to come to quickly, he called back right away and let me know his situation in conjunction with mine, that is good business, and he cares about customer service!

I learned the hard way that you cannot trust just anyone with your electrical needs. These folks are straight up criminals. Do not trust them under any circumstances.

No idea of the quality of this service as they never showed up for my scheduled tune up appointment. I waited over 2 weeks for an appointment and when the person didn't show up I called them.  First I was told I had the wrong date. I did not have the wrong date.  They called me back and said they had to reschedule my appointment but had FORGOTTEN TO CALL ME.  We had cleaned out the furnace room and were awaiting the results of the inspection to determine if we could do another home improvement or if we'd need a new furnace in the near future.  They REALLY caused problems for us by doing this!  I wouldn't waste my time with this company as they are obviously unreliable and have little concern for anyone's schedule other than their own. There are better providers out there who will put their customers first.

Made an appointment with this company the said they  were booked out for 11 days.  Jim Anderson  called way past his appointment time of 8 AM at 10:30 am saying he was having trouble with his truck and he would be here in a hour. Jim arrived around noon and he says he needed a longer hose and a permit from the city and that he would be back this afternoon. Jim never came back or called .So I Called the city and he hadn't got the permit or every been there. I left a message for him after 4 pm and he never called back. Jim finally calls the next day and says  his pump is broke and he would call when it was fixed. I told him no thanks and we would find someone else. We called a different  sewer Co. and they came out the day same.
