Best Businesses in Ohio

Helped with installing a laundry wash sink - they did an excellent job. Super professional and very responsive - will work with the again!

Bob is the most reliable plumber you could ask for. He has helped us out of multiple plumbing emergencies and he is fast and efficient. He always gets in contact with you quickly, and makes you feel like a priority. I can't express how great a guy he really is.

Overall

Service

I had a gas line leak and this company was on the limited list of accredited ones by Lancaster Gas service. Cr. Strohmeyer put me at the top of his list due to seriousness of the problem. He investigated the pipe and was able to thread the new pipes through the existing ones. This meant I didn't need to have my front lawn dug up to reach the faulty pipe.
I was impressed by his professionalism and attention to detail. He took pains to explain what the options were, how they would be done and made me feel confident of his expertise.
I have already recommended him to friends and have put him on my list of 'best people to call.'

Cheap, quick, and great customer service! Highly recommend this company! I needed help removing large trees roots. Harold's answered my call quickly and responded to the house immediately. Support local and call Harold's!

Mulbarger was prompt, efficient, and professional at repairing a tub leak and restoring hot water for the tub at my mom's home. I would highly recommend them and will definitely use them in the future!

This company is horrible and has left me feeling conned. Last year I pre-purchased the 'Gold Package' service plan which included a spring opening, a fall winterization, and one lawn aeration. During the spring opening the technician opened the system and flagged 8 sprinklerheads that needed replacing. Luckily, I decided to run the system myself before committing to have the work done and the 8 'broken' heads still worked.

The winterization was a complete mess and was incorrectly done by their employees. Below are the problems they caused.

1) When clearing the water out of the pipes, the employee was in a hurry, turned the air pressure way too high and popped off a sprinkler head.
2) The water was not cleared out of the metal pipe leading from the basement to the exterior of the house causing the pipes to freeze and burst over the winter.

I had a separate irrigation company look at the system and they agree these were due to their employee's errors and should be common sense for anyone working at an irrigation company.

In addition, AK is very disorganized. They no showed twice to winterize the system after confirming both appointment times through email. Each time I had to take a half day vacation to be home during the 4 hour window. I also had to call/email 3-4 times to have my yard aerated, each time they said their system showed it was already completed.

These errors have cost me hundreds of dollars to fix/replace. I've called and tried contacting AK through their site trying to recoup some of the cost and have not gotten a response.

Our toilet would not flush and was always getting clogged. We called Fraley plumbing and they responded quickly and professionally! Some of the best service I have ever had! We now have a permanent plumber to call if we ever need something fixed! I would recommend Fraley plumbing to any and all of my friends.

The Drain Doctor, Mike and his crew came out to help us with a nasty ongoing plumbing nightmare. Our sewer line over the years progressively got worse and finally stopped working all together. They sent out a plumber to run a snake out to see what was up and determined the line had collapsed and filled with mud and debris. So they set it up to get started on this as soon as they could get all the utility companies to sign off on it. The utilities were marked carefully over the weekend, but the township had the sewer line marked totally incorrect. Mike and his guys took their time to solve the mystery of where the line was and able to get started on the repairs.  It was as suspected nasty old Orangeburg pipe. They used a line camera so they could see what was happening to the line. Repairs went smoothly and quickly from that point. And they even found a water leak we had not spotted earlier in the house that would have eventually burst. It was  nasty messy business but the crew worked hard to get the  job done before the sunset. Mike answered all our questions concerning the situation and everyone was laid back and friendly. We have our drains back and our toilet is working like a champ. We will be calling them back for other plumbing jobs as well.

I have used them a couple of times- they came out quick, professional, fair price. One time the issue was was user error and he fixed in two minutes and didn't charge me for being a moron :). Now that's integrity and good service!

Extremely Unsatisfied. He does really bad work, but interestingly when his job is done, he says he is very satisfied with the work he has done for you. He is very arrogant also. Initially he will talk nice but once you pay him off, he will not take responsibility of any bad work he has done. Who is he to make that judgement. He boasts a lot about himself saying what he has done and what not.

Stay away from him. Instead try Sprinkler Doctor or Sweet water systems in the same price range. They will not rip you off. Well, these are the ones my friends and colleague have used and they are satisfied with the after sales service.

I will not recommend this Nationwide Irrigation to anyone.

To Jeremy H-
Well, I do not want to be specific here. I have written this to help people make known decision. If i have to market, i would market one company not two. Well for your information i would recommend Rain One for that matter, but they are expensive. If you want to be in the same price range as Nationwide Irrigation, the other two are much better because their work is good and i have talked to people who have used their services.

I called to make an appointment to get an estimate on some work in a home I have in Columbus. I currently live in another state and I'm trying to fix up this home in Columbus to sell. I had an appointment for June 16 at 6 PM. The estimator did not show, I tried calling the office got no answer.

After about 20 interactions with this company, I've come to the conclusion that it's hit or miss.  Sometimes technicians will be friendly and helpful (AC/Furnace and Plumbing interactions come to mind).  The others tend to forget about your discount club discount or act like they get a commission if they sell you the platinum fix as opposed to the necessary fix (Electric and Plumbing interactions come to mind).  

Of the times where things have been realllly bad, I've been given refunds or not charged (as was the case with my previous review).  That's good and all, I'd just prefer to not have to guess if it's Jekyll or Hyde that's going to show up when my pipes are leaking.

If you're new to the house owning game, I'd suggest being wary.  Not to say they can't do quality work, I'd just say it's not always a given, which can be mentally and financially frustrating.  If you have patience and some know-how, I'd say they could be worth the call.
