Best Businesses in Columbus, OH

We placed an order for our 1500 gallon septic tank to be pumped.  The tech, Jarrod, was excellent!  Fast, friendly, professional.  We talked about the system and he was very good at explaining how it worked.  He answered all my questions.  I know who I'm going to have do the next pumping for sure. The price was reasonable too.

Sewer Pro will be our plumbers from here on out.  We had another plumbing company come out to our house earlier this week and they told us that we had a serious sewer line issue that needed to be address as soon as possible.  They also quoted us an exorbitant amount for the repair.

We reached out to Sewer Pro for another quote. They looked at the video from the other company and in their professional opinion after seeing it they did not see any need for immediate repairs or the urgency the other company was stressing, but the owner offered to still come out to the house.

Tom came out today and listened to our entire story. He even inserted his own camera in our sewer line just to get a better idea of the condition of our line with his eyes. He shook his head and said that he sees nothing that indicates we need any repairs.

Tom did not charge us anything for his visit today or the quote and he saved us from being taken advantage of a predatory plumbing company in the Columbus area. We could not be more thrilled to have had Tom out at our house for a second opinion.

If you need a honest, local plumber please give Tom and Sewer Pro a call. They will treat you fair.

Wow. I was blown away by the service & honesty of Windsor Rooter/Plumbing. You know how sometimes you come across that honest, down to earth company that you'd be happy to do business with? Windsor is hands down one of those companies.

We needed a plumber to fix what we thought could be a root intrusion, a clogged main, or a break in our main sewer line. My wife gave me the name of two companies, that she had researched, to call and set up initial appointments. Windsor could not do the day of but I was promptly scheduled for the next day. It was a breeze to make an appointment with Windsor.

The other company, could come that day but, couldn't give me even a ball-parked time frame of when they would be there. I got just a 30 minute warning call that they were on the way. The other plumbing company quoted that the repair basically required ripping up part of our driveway to replace sewer pipe and the addition of an access pipe. This was to eliminate their diagnosis: a clog cause by an intrusive tree root into the terracotta sewer pipe.

As with any possibly large home project we always seek out additional opinions & quotes... And boy, am I glad we did!

Justin, the guy that met me for the appointment was honest & straight forward. I gave him the run down of what the company the day prior had told me and we decided that he'd run a camera down and give me his analysis of this 'let's rip up your driveway' root intrusion.

Pretty sure that we he came across the root that he said something along the lines of, 'That's it?'. After running a camera down he let me know that he would not feel ok with ripping up a driveway to fix that small intrusion. That there were much less invasive ways to handle this small amount of root in the sewer line. He did point out a spot a little further into the line from the dreaded intrusion that at some point might become disjointed at a bend in the pipe- something that the initial company didn't mention.

All in all, a root intrusion that nearly cost us a massive chunk in repair costs was handled for far less.

Great contractor to work with. Does excellent work. I highly recommend Ryan and his crew.

This is the second time I've used Mr. West's services for my plumbing needs.
As usual he did an excellent job.  Very professional.  
When he makes an appointment with you he keeps it and shows up when he says he will.  
I will gladly call him again if I have other plumbing issues.

Thank you Eddie, you are the best.

I've had two major installations completed by Jon's. A water heater replaced by Drew and a shower stall replacement by Brad and Rich. Big SHOUT-OUT to these great guys. Their work was impeccable. Ryan provided me with a great price quote and the work was completed cleanly and efficiently. Each person I've worked with at Jon's has been friendly and knowledgeable. This company is a great locally-owned business that is highly recommend.

I called Only Drains after we had detected a spongy blockage in the lawn drain that ran from downspout to the street.After I left my message, business owner Ken returned my call the next business day and set an appointment the  following afternoon. Received courtesy call 30 min before arrival. At the job, owner's son Casey promptly set up equipment, snaked  gutter lawn drain and used cutter blade to remove small ball of tree roots. Casey was precise in explaining/  completing  the work, and gave helpful information about dealing with the issue going forward.  Owner also stopped by to check on problem (he  had been  working nearby), saw it was being easily resolved by son and left. It was nice to meet owner and appreciated the concern he showed for our situation.                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                       
                                                                                                                                                       
I was charged less than I had been quoted on the phone because the task did not take as much time as had been expected. We had not  asked for a reduction  and were pleasantly surprised by this company's honesty and fairness in charges.

Both father and son were polite, friendly and easy to work with.  We highly  recommend Only Drains and would definitely call them  if we have drain problems in the future.

Romei & Son is a staple Granville business: friendly, fast, and never too far away. the two times that I've had business with them, they were able to accommodate my request within the day, once within the hour. The staff is polite and efficient, getting right to work and making sure things are back in working order.

I was quoted $350 to put in an outlet in a basement and this is reasonable.  It's an open ceiling, and I have drilled most of the holes.  Also, it's a new construction, so everything is straightforward.  

However, somehow the electrician didn't have any electrical supplies on his truck and he took over an hour to get them when there are several places close by.  Plus I had just put in an outlet a couple of days ago and even with a 20% markup on supplies it was outrageous more than what I paid at Ace Hardware and I got extra items.  Therefore the bill came in at $500 for 3 1/2 hours of work & supplies, over 40% of what I was originally quoted. To top it off, he never took his boots off when coming in the house which every other contractor I've had has done so automatically.

No way I would recommend them at all.

Their 'office' is poorly run. Make a lot of empty promises, don't return calls and etc. Never know when they'll show up and I would not call in an emergency. All that said once the guys are finally  on site they do good work. They don't fool around, always find the problem, and explain things well. They are local people and very good prices, good work just frustrating to deal with.

Tim Fannon has been nothing but trouble.  He said he was licensed but now I can't find his license in the state database.  He said he would be having our new water heater inspected but didn't.  We spent thousands of dollars on a unit that after a month or so has already spent many a day error coding.  He does not stand by his work.  RUN!!!!

Robert Jarrett was contacted to complete my basement project. He didn't complete the painting, drywall and laid warped flooring. He stated he would correct the issues. He is MIA after being paid. Haven't been in contact with him in over 6 mos

This is the very last company that you would ever want to hire. Does not deserve even one star.

These guys are great.  I've had them to our house multiple times because our house is old and we have trees and the lines need to be blasted out every couple of years.  They show up when they say they will, they do the job without trying to up-sell anything, they clean up after themselves and they are reasonably priced.  They are my go-to plumbers.
