Best Plumbing Services in Ohio

Doesn't get any better or honest and fair.  I wish every company operated as they do.  I would definitely recommend

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.

Wow!!  That's all I can say.  Chapman Drainage went above and beyond fixing my drainage pipes from intruding roots.  Worked with me for several months to assure that my basement stayed dry, then came out today and did a killer job and even did more than I asked for just to make sure the job was done right and so we wouldn't have to worry in the future.  The men were extremely professional and worked to perfect the job.  I'm sad I could only give a 5 star review, because they deserve more.  Recommend 110%!

Capital City Mechanical helped fix a troublesome situation involving the installation of my dishwasher. Something was done poorly with the line from the washer to my sink when it was initially installed, and Home Depot - the originally installer, refused to fix their mistake.

CCM came to my rescue - why is this noteworthy? Because a lot of plumbers don't want to mess with appliances, and a lot of appliance places refuse to work with plumbing. Seriously. I wouldn't wish this specific situation on my worst enemy.

This company threaded the needle of being able to assist me with both for a reasonable price. Cannot wait to use them for future needs as required.

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.

Had a main drain backup.  Called them to come out.  They came out got it flowing.  Said there was an issue with the line, but they couldn't camera it and that we needed to call someone else.  3 weeks later it's backed up again.  I'm not going to call them back out because they don't camera lines. So I call to ask them what they can do to make it right.  Apparently they do camera lines, guess the tech didn't want to do it.   Long story short they say there must have been Miscommunication about what they do. They do camera lines just won't fix them if there's an issue.  Their solution is they can come back out and try to snake the line again....... why would I do that, I've already called another company because you guys told me you don't camera lines, if there is an issue and you can't fix it, I'm not calling you.   Plenty of good plumbing companies out there call this one at your own risk.

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)

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.

I rarely give 1 star reviews, and I wouldn't have bothered but please beware of this company.

We had to deal with this company through Home Warranty, they outsource their work for any jobs that are assigned out of their home state. This might be why they are so incompetent, but Frank is a total unprofessional liar and this company should definitely not be used at all costs due to their dishonest business practices and fraudulent billing. They have probably been doing this for years, there is probably just cause for a class action lawsuit with how much additional money they have been able to get suckered out of people that do not question their charges. We had in excess of $700 in out of pocket costs on top of what the home warranty company was going to cover for a replacement of a basic hot water heater. The home warranty company does not provide the pricing breakdown, upon calling this company...they refuse to give their price breakdown in the form of email. This should be a red flag #1. They also have girls that work in the dispatch office that have zero customer service skills, maybe they are related to Frank because I saw a common thread there with lack of personality. Once we finally got some verbal breakdown of charges, we realized they are overinflated for bogus inflated permit charges and a disposal fee. Frank immediately blamed his contractor for not putting the correct charges down, that is red flag #2 which shows **** poor management when someone blames a tech for their shortcomings and gets antagonistic for being called out for it and the lack of accountability within a shadily run organization. These were confirmed as bogus charges because we were able to get reassigned to a different company that charged about 1/3 of what they were trying to charge for the exact work that was to be done. Frank and his company are so horrible, that the home warranty company refunded us back our service fee which is pretty much unheard of with these types of places and filed a complaint against him. I was basically told that I could take it or leave it and I can go eff myself and then hung up on.

Called for backflow testing on 10 and again on 11 august.  I was told he would be out in the next couple of days.  I discussed a problem with the lid of the backflow device and I was told he would attempt to fix it.  I assumed all would be taken care and forgot about it until I received a past due notice from the city of Columbus threatening to shut my water off if I don't get the test completed and the results submitted.  I immediately called Baumann and of course there is no answer.  Left message, got no response, called again 2 additional times...still no response.  Totally unreliable and unprofessional company to do business with.

Repaired valve and pipe to fix loud noise after toilet flushes; cleaned back of tank to remove residue and offered followup cleaning tips. Operator called in advance to confirm appointment, technician showed up on time. Was courteous, helpful, and efficient. Price was reasonable, even without the added Angies List coupon. Would use 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.

Mrs. B., 01/08/2016Edit

We are a military family and on a tight budget. I have home warranty to avoid any unexpected home repair expense. My warranty company first American hired T & R Plumbing located 3841 Richard Avenue, Grove City OH 43123, Mr. Rocky (the owner) to repair my garbage disposal. He made an appointment and never showed. I took a day off from work to be there and no plumber. I finally got ahold of Mr. Rocky (the owner and person who made the appointment with me) and he told me that he totally forgot about the appointment. So, we schedule another appointment and again, this clown never show or had the decency to call me. Again, I called and texted him and after constant begging, he sets another appointment. This time he showed, asked for the $65 service fee before he did anything and once I gave him the money, he proceeded to check the garbage disposal (turn the switch on and off and loosing up something under the sink) and tells me that he will call me back Monday to set new appointment to replace the unit. He was barely 10 minutes in my home and left a mess in my kitchen and a non functional sink ( my sink is leaking water). Now I have a sink I can't used and no garbage disposal). Monday comes and no call or sign from this clown. Tuesday I called him and he never calls back, I called and left several messages and texted him and nothing. After trying and trying, I left him another message letting him know I was calling the warranty company and he then called be back . He told me that he was super busy and did not have the time to deal with this, after begging and pleading , he agrees to set an appointment. No surprises, he never showed. Again, calls and calls and he sets another appointment (the last appointment was 12/21/15 (4 days before Christmas). the appointment was for 12/21 between 1 and 4 pm. I texted him the day of the appointment to remind him and called him. Well, 4 pm came and went and no plumber (he is consistently unreliable), I called him at 4 pm and asked him where he was. called him again and finally got ahold of him around 5 pm, and he told me that he was in Dayton and had 3 other service call ahead of me and he will get to my place when he get there. My place is in Blacklick, Columbus and he was in Dayton and was still in the middle of a service call with 3 more service call ahead of me and it was already after 5 pm. He told me that he wont be able to get to me (again) and if I did not like it (he used foul language which I wont repeat here) , i can F**** call the warranty company and them send someone else.
The original service call was placed mid-November 2015, it is now January 7, 2016 (over70 days) and I have no garbage disposal and a sink that is leaking water. The warranty company already paid him for all of the work and they cant do anything but have this absolute irresponsible and scammer plumber finish the job which he hasn't. Please avoid this scammer, he is the worst plumber I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. He is a scammer and created more repair problems than was originally needed. I lost several days off work, the $65 service fee and the use of my sink and still no garbage disposal. If I could give him minus 1 star, I would, too bad the lowest option here is 1 star. This Mr. Rocky is the worst plumber ever.
