Best Toilet Installation in Madison WI
Having to call the rooter serving pros is always a harrowing and frightening endeavor.
Well perhaps that's not exactly the right wording, but knowing that the bill will likely be not accepted by my insurance provider, makes me sort of wish I could call the proctologist instead.
Everyone knows (or should recall being told when still in high school by counselors advising about career possibilities) that doctors and plumbers were professions who could demand serious hourly rates and get them.
In 10 years now, in my current home I've needed several plumber/rooter services to perform some task I'm either unskilled or don't care to purchase a proper rooting tool for that DIY ethic I otherwise resort to when I have a job needing attention.
Mark's service was the one I've called on a return customer basis. Highest attention to the customer satisfaction of the three local companies I've hired in this area.
One company (franchised well known brand) sent a man (solo) that dragged an extremely heavy Rooter machine down my hardwood stairs and every scratch and gouge that guy left was something that assured me I'd call ANYONE else in the future. My phone call and walk-in visit with before and after photos was met with the 'sh_t happens' attitude. I had before photos because as few weeks prior, all my hardwood floors had been restored, so I was extremely conscious of every blemish.
Another sent a man without the required machine to perform the complete job and was only fully realized when a couple months later, I called MARK'S to redo the same root removal job and I was shown via the video image that what was left undone previously.
I still don't want to ever see these guys again, but they are now the only number in my phone list for any in house plumbing work I'll ever rely on going forwards. An annual service fee is cheaper than an emergency call every other year I feel should be mentioned, which reminds me, I suspect Mark's will be returning shortly.

Capitol Plumbing has been beyond helpful when we have had plumbing troubles. I don't need to ask twice and they get the job done and done correctly. They clean up after themselves, the craftsmanship of their work is top notch, and the owner and employees are great people.

My Parents, who are in their late 70s, water softener system had failed, and stopped working on 11/14/2022. I had gone down to check out the system. I heard a leaking hiss, and found a pinhole leak, from one of the main water lines so I turned the water supply off and did a temporary patch to the leak. I had worked on the system before, but it was at it's end of life, and needed to be replaced. I called Plumbing Place, it was already late afternoon, and the receptionist said she would call their master plumber, and would give him the details, and to expect arrival time between 7-7:30 the next morning. The Tech was prompt, and was friendly. He checked over the system, and told me all that needed to be done, and gave me an estimate. I had agreed, and he went to get the the necessary parts, and returned. He removed the old system, and installed the new one. He also did some pipe replacement, and repairs. He was very skilled and efficient, and the new water softener system looked great! The job was completed in just a few hours, I was very pleased with the work he had done, I would contact this company again with any future repairs! I would highly recommend Plumbing Place, as a very reliable company to do business with!

Ian is great! I was able to schedule an appointment via text, and he responded immediately. He fixed the plumbing issue quickly. Very professional, prompt and personable! I would definitely recommend Remedy Plumbing's services. They're now on my speed dial.

Amazing service! Gary was able to come the morning I called and had the problem solved within 30 minutes of arriving. Great rates and service, I'll definitely be calling Budget Drain & Sewer Cleaning if I need help in the future.

Messaged Rafael to do a couple small plumbing projects in my kitchen and responded within an hour. Scheduled him to come a day later. Was quick, efficient, and good value. Will use him for future projects.

Our kitchen sink was leaking, and when I closed the shut-off valves under the sink, they leaked, too. I called and was able to get a same-day appointment. Dan was very friendly and professional, and the price was very reasonable. I am very satisfied with the results and would gladly hire him again.

Craig was phenomenal. I needed some help with bathroom fixtures and he was able to work with me in terms of scheduling. He was prompt in responding, up front on the charges and very efficient. The job was done really well. Thank u for your help! Yelp made it super easy for me ..

I have some plumbing to do in my new house (install new bathroom and run 4 gas lines). Had the account manager out 8 days ago, was told at the end of the meeting I would get an estimate the next day. 3 voicemails and 2 emails later nothing. They must have plenty of business to be so careless with other people's time. I imagine the negative review will get a response when all other forms of communication didn't.

Really happy with Avid Plumbing service. Have used them to replace a toilet and now a water heater. Communication and scheduling is excellent as is billing. Service people have been patient in listening to and answering all of my questions. Really happy with the work that has been done and appreciate the high level of customer service. Absolutely recommend.

Dallman Plumbing did the plumbing for a bathroom remodel and replaced our water heater. They were great all around. They showed up early, finished on time and were kind and courteous. A+ all around.

If you're looking for great service and people you can trust to handle your HVAC needs, I'd look no further than Cardinal Heating & Air Conditioning. My wife and I purchased a 25 year old home and we called up Cardinal to come check out the furnace. The tech who showed up was awesome. He let us know that the furnace was the original furnace, which even he was a bit surprised about (since they typically only last about 15-20 yrs), but he said it was still functioning just fine despite its age and didn't try to sell us on anything at all. We ended up liking our tech so much that we signed up for Cardinal's annual preventative maintenance plan for heating & cooling; which I'd highly recommend. Anyway, over several years our furnace kept passing inspections (in which at no time did anyone at Cardinal pressure us to upgrade), and the service maintenance checks we had with them were all great experiences.
Finally this past spring we had a tech out to check the A/C unit as part of our annual maintenance plan, and while he was running a diagnostic on the A/C he went the extra mile and used his down time to check our furnace; which thankfully he did, because he spotted a crack in the heat exchange (which I also verified was there). Now if you're unfamiliar with furnaces, a crack in the heat exchange is a serious issue; the type of one where you run the risk of carbon monoxide leaking into your house. The tech was very apologetic for having to inform us of the bad news that by law he had to flag our furnace as unsafe to operate. However, I just profusely thanked him and said we knew the furnace was well beyond it's expected life, and that this was precisely why we had the maintenance plan in the first place. Anyway he went on to finish the air conditioning check that morning, but before doing so he called the office to have someone reach out to us about our options for a new furnace. As expected they got back to us pretty quickly (within a half hour).
Now I should also mention that our A/C unit was pretty old (13 yrs), and they typically only last 12-15 yrs. So it wasn't too surprising when he said it would be an extra $200 to top off the coolant and replace a part. He also estimated that even still, the unit would only have a year or two left before ultimately needing replacement. However instead of pushing the repairs through or trying to sell us a new A/C unit, he told us to hold on for a minute, and he called up the office to see if they were still running a promotion that was ending soon where if you buy a furnace (which we were already going to do through them) that you get an A/C unit free. It turns out that they still were (and had it been a few days later we would have been totally SOL), but in doing so he got them to revise our quote on the new furnace to include the new A/C unit. As a result we ended up saving thousands through this deal. And for those of you skeptics out there, no this wasn't some manufactured promotion that was put together to make the sale happen. We were already going to get the furnace from them, our tech simply was looking out for us and in doing so he saved us a lot of money.
Lastly I also want to mention that at the tail end of the A/C check-up I had to head to work, but my wife was home, and so we talked on phone the remainder of the morning sorting out all of the above. Now where things went from great to outstanding is when she called to inform me that Cardinal called to schedule the installation and the scheduler was like: are you available this afternoon? My wife was shocked, and confirmed that she was in fact implying that the furnace would be installed that day. She said: yeah, it looks like it might get a little chilly tonight, so I thought if it worked out we'd try to get that installed today for you. So low and behold when I came home from work, they had removed the old furnace and A/C, installed the new units, and to top it off hooked us up with a new smart thermostat that worked with our 4 wire system (unlike our Nest) and had taken the time to walk my wife through all the features on how to use it.
So there you have it. If you've braved through my very lengthy positive customer experience story, you'll see why I'll be a Cardinal Heating & Air Conditioning customer for life. And for those of you who prefer the cliff notes... let me just say that Cardinal does excellent work, has excellent people, their work is timely, they are not pushy about trying to sell you anything, and that ultimately the cost of the new furnace and A/C was far less than the money we had budgeted for it. Thanks to them I sleep better knowing that my wife and kids are safe because the crack in my heat exchange was caught when it was. With the Cardinal, I feel like they truly have your best interest in mind, and I honestly can't say enough good things about our past several years of being customers of theirs . Thanks Cardinal!

Incredibly difficult to schedule anything... they can't even confirm if we can set an appointment for tomorrow.

Do not use this company- I cannot go into how many problems I have had with them. On an install they blocked a door in my basement, pinched off a line that made my basement flood, and as of today I've been 2 weeks without hot water. Take your chances.
