Best Pipe Installation in Milwaukee WI

I read numerous positive reviews on Thumbtack regarding water softener repairs by this outfit, and I'm VERY pleased to say Waterfoul Plumbing did not disappoint!  Corey was very professional, very courteous, and corrected our issue. Because our softener is 20+ years old, I figured we would have to purchase a new one, however, Corey indicated the unit was fine but just needed a new part. He corrected our issue within an hour. He's also very reasonable in terms of price. Waterfoul is now our go-to for all of our plumbing needs. Thanks, Corey!

We recently moved into a house and this was our first time hiring a plumber.  That being said, it was daunting to decide who we wanted to go with.  Jay from Norman's Home Improvements made the decision easier for us, as he was thoughtful and willing to discuss our possible plumbing issues right away, before even booking an appointment.  I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Norman's to anyone who was looking for assistance.  Our experience was a good one, and our issue was resolved with one visit.  The total cost was especially reasonable, and we feel we learned a lot in the process - it is always a great thing when someone is willing to explain things to you and answer questions, versus just completing the job.  

I reached out to numerous plumbers and companies, but Jay's response stood out right away.  While most people were happy to give me a (fairly high) ballpark quote which left me wondering if I would be taken advantage of for my lack of plumbing knowledge, Jay was happy to discuss the possibilities of why our kitchen sink had stopped working for no apparent reason ahead of time, before even booking an appointment.  He was able to come take a look at our sink just a couple of days later, on a Friday evening.  He spent some time discussing the plumbing of our house with us in general, which was extremely helpful as we only moved a few weeks ago.  He was happy to answer questions and make sure we understood things, which we really appreciated.  He was professional and explained the cost ahead of time after diagnosing the issue and prior to completing additional work beyond the base service fee for the visit.  

Norman's Home Improvements was a good first experience for us, and I would gladly hire them in the future for additional work.  In addition to plumbing, they also do work on electrical, HVAC, and carpentry.  We would highly recommend Norman's and we especially appreciated the willingness to not only perform the work but explain the process to us as well.

Bob did a great job doing some plumbing work for me while I wasn't even home! I appreciate his thorough and complete job, no mess left behind, a complete and exact invoice, and a working outside hose! His bill was reasonable! I will definitely call him again!

Dan has (unfortunately, yet thankfully) been to my house several times to unclog my drain in the basement whenever it backed up. Day or night, I even called him on either Christmas Day or Eve, and he came out right away. Dan cares about his customers and always goes to great lengths to provide quality service and also provides references for bigger projects, for example, for me to get my tubing replaced in the basement, so that my drain doesn't keep on getting clogged. Anytime you need any sort of drain service, please call Dan!

Even though Chris wasn't the man for my job he pointed me in the right direction and walked me through the process I should expect to get the job done. He will be getting my call for my next plumbing needs.

We are extremely happy with the service we recently received from Milestone - the technicians were pleasant, timely, and friendly.  Dan was particularly helpful!  He explained what (and why!) he would be doing, answered our questions, worked efficiently, used walking tarps rather than the carpet, and made some very helpful phone calls for us.  Two other technicians came the next day to do some additional work for us and there wasn't even a callback charge!

Thank you gentlemen for helping make our new home more attractive and efficient!

Will not use these guys again. Tech was in and out of a rental property within 15 minutes, to snake a toilet. Got charged for 1 hour of labor, twice, for both a toilet adjustment and for the snake. Price was exorbitantly high. My fault for having gone through with it after they quoted it but even after escalating the matter the management stood by their pricing. Look elsewhere first.

Derek Kuepper helped with our remodel and was great. Thorough and meticulous with everything he did!  Would use again!

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! First, they never showed for their first appointment, nor the rescheduled and then the next rescheduled! I wanted to ensure I was home when the outside foundation work was to be done. They came on an unscheduled day, preformed the WRONG work, when I was gone! After I realized skid steer tracks in my yard, I first realized they had worked that day and discovered the entirely wrong work done! After demanding the correct work be done or a full refund, Jim quickly stated call a lawyer and hung up on me! Mind you, I'm at a loss of $4,000. The work was paid in advance. A big mistake on my end. Fun Fact: After contacting a lawyer, it is shown that IHN has been in over 50 lawsuits! This makes sense to why he was so quick to tell me to lawyer up! Being sued is clearly normal business for them. Don't risk it!!

I have used (Dale) Thiessenhusen Plumbing as our plumber for over 20 years and he has never disappointed us.

He is a very fair, prompt, and  knowledgeable plumber and business man.  

I would, without hesitation, recomend Thiessenhusen Plumbing for all of your plumbing needs.

I called Ben to unclog my bathroom drain. He arrived around 9:30 a.m. He told me it was clogged in the sewer line and he would have to snake it. He started snaking the sewer drain. After a couple hours I asked him how it was going, and he said it was bad but he thought he could get it. I checked on him every couple hours after that and he said he thought he could clear the clog. At around 5 or 6 o'clock he told me he thought the sewer pipe was BROKEN outside the house and he wouldn't be able to fix it today. He gave me a 5 THOUSAND DOLLAR QUOTE!!!!! to fix the sewer pipe. So, I asked how much I owed him for the day, and he charged me $850 and didn't accomplish anything. He was also on his cellphone about 90% of the time. The next day I had Roto Rooter come in and they cleared my CLOGGED sewer pipe by the end of the day. The sewer pipe was never broken. I would never have or recommend flow rite do any plumbing in my house.

Friday around 1:15pm I had one of Ingrilli's vans go straight from a right turn lane and cut me off.  I was at the light, south bound on Tosa Ave at Harmonee, out in front of the church.  Now weather he was in the wrong lane and didn't want to go around the block or if he just didn't care, he decided to go straight from the right turn lane and cut me off.  I have found from my forty plus years of being a contractor and hiring sub-contractors during that time that peoples personalities are always the same.  By that I mean, if this is the way he drives...then this will be the type of work he will do inside your home?  Once the damage is done, it can't be undone.  Please be careful who you hire to do work on your home, you only have one.  Thank you.

While I have no complaints about speed, as he was here almost immediately, I have big complaints about the value of his work. He charged me 600 dollars plus tax for a job that took less than an hour and utilized at most (and this is a very generous estimate) 100 dollars in parts. He's a very friendly looking and sounding guy, however he also knows exactly how to play it. Beware.

Very helpful and responsive. Fixed my leaky toilet and had replacement parts on-hand.

No stars. I have used them for over 10 years for 10 apartment units. And I always thought they were pricy. I had water coming through my walls one day at our home. I called them.  The guy showed up...at 5. And told me he has other plans but it was ok. So he explained that he was at time and a half as I was holding my 6 month old. Well I don't know what to say. We need our plumbing to work. So he didn't even fix it that day. Came back. Same mood. Whatever. But I got the bill...
And they charged me $149 for parts and $557 for labor!!   Total bill almost $800. 3 months later we still had a leak. I called and said I think your friendly plumber cracked our pipe. They disagreed. I called another plumber who happens to be an OSHA instructor. Came to look at it. Even took pics for his class on what not to do. So disappointed!!  I even explained my disappointment.  They didn't offer to make it right, nor seem to care that they lost all my business.  I will never use them again!!  Don't bother even dialing their number. They may have a wedding to go to on the weekend. And can't help you anyway. I heard that one too.
Just awful!!!!!

The young man That came to my house pulled out a part to replace without checking if that was the part that needed replacing. My hot water heater doesn't even take the part he went to replace. He then told me he has the exact same water heater and just worked on his over the weekend and couldn't fix it. When I questioned my water heater only being 10 years old he informed me his hot water heater was only nine years old and that's about as long as you can expect them to live.
If he had the same hot water heater as mine, why would he have pulled out a part that my water heater doesn't even have? What are the chances he has the exact water heater, worked in it for two days and as a plumber by trade could not fix it?
He was in my house for approximately 30 minutes and my bill was $168. At no point was I told what the cost would be, they just sent me a bill. If you double that price, it's the cost of a new water heater...

This was not a good interaction. I'm incredibly skeptical and it all felt shiesty.

The only reason I am writing this review is because I reached out to John without getting a response. In September I paid John $175.00 to weatherize my windows, he went around with a caulk gun and put caulk around my windows. Not knowing if that was what weatherization is I paid the man. Fast forward, all my windows still have the same draft coming in that it had the previous year. I texted the numbers I used prior to the so call work being completed, to let him know I still have a draft. No one has tried to respond to my concerns. I will tell everyone do not use Handyman John!!!
