Best Businesses in Columbus, OH

Joe and George are great!  We had a days worth of grunt work that no other plumber wanted to do.  Joe fit us in and spent a day taking care of our chores.  I will be forever grateful for my dishwasher, laundry tub, filter and softener.  Would highly recommend them to anyone!

I have been using Drain Openers for more than 10 years now. They are wonderful!!! They are always prompt getting to the job, very courteous and their pricing is always fair. The quality of work is superb and I have recommended them to many others over years with no complaints from anyone. Dave and Tina Swisher are the owners and the two men that usually do work for me are Jeremiah and Mike. You can't go wrong with this company!!

Called around for the best price for unclogging a basement floor drain and getting rid of a gawd-awful smell coming from it.  Macon was the lowest, so Tony came out the next day.  He says he removed a hideous, unidentifiable object from the drain and the water flow is clear. I called him back five days later because the smell was still there. He advised we flush bleach down the drain. We poured four gallons of concentrated bleach down the drain over the next four days. However, 12 days after Tony was here, the smell is still there.
Price: $95.00.  
Result: I'm calling Roto-Rooter later today to see what they can do.

I found water seeping into the basement. Jeremy came out and did a thorough inspection of the entire exterior drainage system and quickly diagnosed the issue. He took the time to explain how my drainage system worked and detailed the job to correct the problem. His crew was prompt and courteous and completed the job quickly without disturbing much of the landscaping outside of the trench for the new drain pipe. The wall is nice and dry now!

Highly recommend- I contacted them for a city issue that needed immediate attention. Not only did they come out quickly but fixed at a reasonable rate and did a great job! Would definitely be using them again for any needs. Thank you!

We have used the same plumber in Reynoldsburg for 30 years.  This year, I decided to try a new company despite not having problems with my regular plumbers.  A clerical mix-up on the correct arrival time caused a minor delay but no tragedy.

The plumber arrived in very good spirits & with very good customer relations began to diagnose the plumbing issue.  After promptly solving one issue he began work on a secondary issue to replace a bathroom sink elbow pipe.  Problem was, he had no correct parts on his truck.  Issue #2 will be skipped.  We were disappointed the proper part weren't loaded on a plumbers truck but again, no tragedy.

Rates are competitive for the industry.  The plumber to customer attentiveness, and verbal skills were well above average.  No creepy weird guy shows up with plumbers butt, just a professional well spoken business man.  Kudos guys!

I've had nothing but amazing experiences with Worly. Being a Designer and project manager, I look for showrooms that carry good quality products, are knowledgeable and are reliable. Jennifer handles all my accounts. She is amazing! She's always helpful both to me and my clients. Their showroom has received a facelift and looks great! The guys in the back are helpful and knowledgable! Overall, nothing but good things to say.

Arrived early in the appointment window. Plumber was unfriendly. Told me after an hour that he was physically unable to do the work that needed done. Called for backup but apparently none was available so he just left. Very disappointing.

Overpriced, poor customer service, unprofessional and rude ownership, not worth the trouble and hassle. Better to call another plumber and save yourself a headache.
(See the not recommended reviews below as well - I missed them)

I had the displeasure of working with their old management and the pleasure of working with their new management. Before was horrible, but when Stephanie took over a few months ago, the experience was great. They fought against my home warranty who kept ordering the wrong part to get my water heater installed as quickly as possible. Technicians were professional and nice, and Stephanie was honest and hard working. I would absolutely recommend them.

The technician that came by to inspect our external water pips for any leaks, arrived in the scheduled time frame. He was courteous, professional and friendly. He was very thorough in his inspection and gave us a very thorough brief on his inspection results, which ultimately provide us with enough information to make an informed next step. Thank you!

We called Baumann Plumbing with a clogged drain issue we couldn't fix ourselves. I gave them a call late in the day and they said someone would be out the next morning by 8:30 am. Very quick turnaround compared to other companies I called. Sure enough... Gary showed up to help resolve the issue. He was very professional, friendly, and fixed our problem in under an hour. Baumann will now ALWAYS be our first call when we need a plumber. A big thank you to Gary for excellent service and a quick fix at a reasonable price!

The office representatives and technicians who do the work are great. It's the rip-off artist who shows up at your house half an hour later to show your his recording of your terrible drains and tries to scare you into digging up your yard that's the problem.
Three years ago, we needed an emergency drain clear on a Sunday. The tech shows up, clears the drain . . . and then Jimmy showed up. What a shyster. I don't even believe the video he showed us was a recording of our drain. I think he just played us a video from his bank of recordings (always make sure they show you the camera WHILE they're going through your drain).  Tries to hard sell my husband into thousands of dollars of necessary repair work. When I declined, he said, That's fine, my toilet will be working tomorrow.
Later in the week I called Eco-Plumber and they confirmed that although there was a small displacement of the pipe (he showed us the camera as it moved through the pipe, and none of the issues Jimmy showed us were there). He told us that if we had the drain cleared every other year or so, it could last another decade.
Fast forward to last week--yikes, another drain plugged (after three years. Really, it's our fault for not addressing it immediately, until it was solidly plugged). Eco-Plumber couldn't send anyone out that day. So I called Mr. Rooter. Guess who showed up with his hard sell again? JIMMY. Walks into our house without a mask, starts his flim-flam game, mentions how great Trump is (guess he missed the Biden sign prominently displayed in our yard), and gives us the same spiel. The technician was already done, but he warned us about the imminent failure of our whole drainage system. Okay, buddy. Whatever. NEVER AGAIN.

I am 74 with special child 48, my experience with Chris Plumbing was Unprofessional and Chris DID NOT do any work, yet led me to believe he fixed my problem. 11-7-16 I called Chris Plumbing about water ring around toilet, Chris said he had a job shortly but could stop and give me a free estimate.  Came in flip flops, and shorts, no paperwork,I took him to son's upstairs bathroom, Chris jumped up and down said I needed new floor wood rot. I told him I did not need a new floor as I had a new wood floor, toilet, sink, painted in less that two years ago, then Chris said he would take the toilet off and check everything out.

Came downstairs in 5 minutes said plumbing fine everything ok but had time to fix it. Went to truck came back with no tool box went up stairs.

Came down in 10 minutes said it would be $100.00, asked if I could take the discount listed on his ad, Chris said he already did that it was $100.00.

My son's caregiver was up stairs the first five minutes, came down went to the basement to get laundry, when Jim came up I was writing the check for Chris thinking Chris did work. I walked to the truck with Chris as he did not give me an invoice and I thought he would write me one, Chris reached into his truck and gave me his business card, no last name, no address, picture of a women and two kids, could hardly read phone #. Chris said he had been listed with Westland Messenger for years and if he get one complaint they will drop his ad, no need to worry gave 30 day warranty which I noted on the check.

Two days later On 7-9-16 I went up stairs to see if my son made his bed. There was water all over the bathroom floor, being by myself I put towels all over the floor. Went down stairs and looked up Chris Plumbing on my iPad. There was a review on Chris Plumbing back in 2011 almost the same as what happened to me, they said Chris said he would come three times to check out his problem and never came, with that I called another Plummer.

They  came right away, Had to snake line, said bad blockage way down, they did fix my problem. If Chris did anything Chris would have found the blockage as well. They charged $114.00 but did do the work. I called Chris and told him I wanted my money back, he said he did not trust me, I hung up.

Sent Chris Plumbing in Galloway a CERTIFIED LETTER asking for my $100.00 they would not sign for the letter. I reported this to Westland Messinger and the BBB.

I feel Chris Scamed me when I told him I did not need a new floor, to take advantage of a 74 year old lady when all he would have had to do was snake the line blockage.

I tell my story so others may not be taken in 15 minutes, I feel like a fool, my son's caregiver told me he could not have done anything in such a short time, said people like this should be stopped. That is why I wrote this, it is the principle of thing, shame on you Chris.

DO NOT PUNISH YOURSELF BY HIRING K&D PLUMBERS.  There are far too many honest, reliable, competent, and hard working plumbers for you to waste your money on this crew.

If you want to feel like a second class citizen, use K&D Plumbing.  David and team were hired to do several plumbing jobs on my house addition.  David's communication with me and my general contractor was horrible and virtually nonexistent.  David would regularly not return calls / messages and failed to follow through on several critical items (i.e., permit coordination) that caused significant delays in the project.  His failure to talk to the paying customer and follow through on promises also caused delays throughout the project.  To cap it all off, David sent one of his plumbers to change out a natural gas feed line to a fireplace.  His plumber had installed it previously, but his work FAILED the City's inspection.  David regularly pulled his plumber from scheduled dates to fix this poor work.  Upon completion of this last bit of work, David overcharged me by $95 for an hour of labor that his plumber did not work.  He agreed to me not having to pay for the 1 hour his employee did not work on my job, but he never sent an adjusted invoice.  In the flurry of paying several trades for their services on my home, I mistakenly overpaid David the $95 for the 1 hour not really worked.  I contacted him quickly to notify him of the error, but he had already cashed my check.  I requested a refund for that overage.  He told me that he 'deserved' the extra money and refused to refund it.  Eventually, he agreed to send me a $95 check.  Well, that date came and went without me receiving a check or hearing a word from David.  After a couple weeks, I again attempted to contact David to inquire about the money and refund.  He told me that he has no intention of returning my money and that it was my problem since I wrote the check.  There is a term for someone who makes promises and does not keep his word.  There is also a term for someone who takes things, in this case nearly $100, that is not rightfully theirs.

Hired Rocky to do a plumbing rough in on a house we are building. Gave him $825 down payment of $3500 total. I paid for the materials. He sent 2 knuckelheads out to the house and they made a huge mess, spilled the purple primer everywhere, it looked like a 3rd grader did the job. Hacked up my floor joists. I had the inspector stop by and he said it would never pass inspections as they had toilets draining into the vent stacks etc... I asked him to deduct the 2 days they worked out there and refund the rest of my money. Never heard another word from him. Run 100 miles an hour away from this scam artist, he really doesnt have a clue.
