10/23/15 Well, the plumber left here a couple of hours ago and I am actually quite pleased. The sewer pipe of my main floor toilet was leaking into the bathroom below it in the basement. Had this issue last December and the plumber that came out from Performance Plumbing back then replaced a section of the old, corroded copper drain pipe with PVC pipe. He did a good job and solved the problem but I wasn't exactly happy to have an issue again, only about 10 months later. But I also knew the remainder of the sewer pipe was not in best shape and the leak was beyond the previously repaired section. I figured a big expense was coming to replace the entire pipe all the way to the main stack on one end and to the toilet at the other, but I wanted it done to avoid future problems.
I thought the earlier replacement of the section of sewer pipe only had their basic 90 day warranty from the papers I had. Well, the guy today from Performance was very honest and told me it should have been written up as a 1 year guarantee. He did ALL the repair work to replace the drain pipe for free! My only charge was for something else I wanted done while he was here, so both me and my bank account are VERY happy. He also had everything needed for both the repair and my other job on the truck, so I didn't have to schedule another appointment to have the work done another day.
The guy today, Mark, was friendly, professional and did a great job. He even did a couple of minor extras he could have charged for on the other work I had him do, I'm guessing because of the 1st repair not lasting as long as he felt it should have. If anyone in the St. Charles county area needs a plumber, I would highly recommend Performance Plumbing in Wentzville, their great service and honesty made a huge difference to me today...
