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.

Can't really comment on the quality of their work. I first contacted Chapman at the end of May and arranged for the work to be done mid June. Unless you are capable of waiting a very, very long time I suggest you look elsewhere

I did not get a chance to work with this company because they aren't open on saturdays.

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 was referred here because they have everything. Well, no they don't. And they don't even know how to make it work...without 5 adapters from this to that to another, just to make a simple fix. Home Depot has the exact part I needed. $12.00

Then, when I returned the two parts I did buy from Worly, totaling $16.00, they charged me $3.00 because THEY got it wrong. THEY gave me the wrong parts because they didn't listen.

I will NOT be back. I will not recommend them to anyone and they do NOT have everything. Including listening skills.  

Bad customer service. Bad interaction. Bad policy on returns. The cashier even said they usually don't have that on there. I'm not sure what it is.

Not again. Not me. Not anyone I know.

Prompt, excellent service at a reasonable price! I called for help to clear a stubborn, backed-up bathroom sink problem and Drainworks immediately dispatched an experienced, friendly technician (David Cardin), who quickly diagnosed and resolved the problem to my satisfaction. The whole process from initial call to paying my bill ($105) took less than an hour and a half. Can't beat this service!

My wife and I moved to Plain City in June and needed a plumber for a water heater leak. We like to use local companies when possible and found Foust. We called and got an appointment setup the following business day and our issue was a non-emergency. David was the technician that came to the house the following day and he did a great job throughout the day and went from leak inspection to installed & fully functional water heater the same day. I recommend Foust - they did a great job for us.

We've had Tony and Matt come out a few times to fix various issues with our new house. Their quotes have been lower than the competitors, and each time they've gotten the job done quickly and effectively. I've found them to be upfront and honest about the problems they see - they will offer the right solution, not the solution that would take the longest and earn them the most money. Each time we've needed them, we've managed to schedule appointments within a few days. One time we needed to order a part, and it did take several weeks longer than they estimated, and I had a hard time getting in touch with them to follow up, but once the part came in we quickly scheduled an appointment and got the work done. They are definitely our go-to plumbers in Columbus.

Prompt, courteous and great price! Heat is back on!
Call them if you need HVAC help! They know what they're doing.

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!

Our toilet was flooding and the shutoff was broken. Rooster arrived within an hour of my call during a busy time to fix my issues. The plumber provided great information and was extremely courteous.

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.
