Best A/C Installation in Minneapolis MN

Excellent job! Needed my main sewer line cleaned out. Professional, courteous and very competitive pricing. Would definitely recommend and call them again!

I used Ouverson to install a new sewer line from my home to the main line per city codes and I was very impressed with Troy and his crew. They were meticulous. They dug a 6x6 hole in my yard and did the installation. When they were done, you could hardly tell. again, very impressed. I can't say enough good about their work.

I've used Pete to help me finish my basement bathroom as well as a bonus room bath.  I've also given his name to many of my friends for their projects such as toilet replacement, leaky faucet repairs, and used him at our place of business (flooring replacements).  Pete always responds and gets the job done when we need him to!

Sometimes in life one finds oneself with a broken water pipe on a Sunday night, in the middle of a pandemic, mere hours before a house inspection that could make or break a sale.  Surely, I thought, it would be impossible to find a plumber who would be willing to come on such short notice, who'd have the knowledge and experience to do the job, and who wouldn't charge an absolute fortune.  

But as fate would have it, I found Steve @ Hibernian and my plumbing emergency actually turned out to be a positive experience.  He clearly knew exactly what he was doing and he had the expertise, equipment, and strength to get the job done well.  What's more, he was pleasant, professional, and personable... and he was completely fair in his pricing (even with the circumstances).  

I highly recommend Hibernian Plumbing.

Great Service and fast Response time

My mom had a main sewer line clog that happened suddenly on Sunday Night ( Feb 5, 2017) She had nasty junk all over her basement and I had no idea who to call for this type of service. I looked on yelp and saw this company and the raving reviews. I called (Monday Feb 6 2017 at 9 am)and they could get someone out here same day between 1 and 3 pm. Great!! they called at 11 am and said they had an opening and they could get someone here sooner, a tech could be at the house by  noon. Awesome, I was pleased as my moms home was starting to smell like a pig farm. Gross!!

The gentleman arrived and got to work on the clog. It turned out to be roots causing the blockage.  He ran the line ( I don't know what its called,big metal cable) out 100 feet and back a total of 6 time to clean out the blockage. He was very sweet to my mom who is a little confused at the age of 76.
Very thankful that they could come out and help us in such short notice. I was expecting a huge bill but I was very happy with the cost since it was an urgent matter. I would defiantly call these guys again if I required their service.
Thank you for helping us out on such  short notice.

I wish I would have called these guys to begin with. Poor researching on my part. They offer a free consultation/ diagnosis and were about $50.00 cheaper then the other place I called with the $25.00 fee just to come out.

Our plumber Steve came out once, diagnosed the issue and came back two days later to work with our schedule to alleviate the monster slow drain problem-o we've had forever.

Major bathtub drain problem and bathroom sink that he worked wonders on. We can't wait to shower again now that the standing water problem is down the drain literally!

-Excellent and friendly customer service.
-Plumbers call to confirm with an ETA
-2 Hour windows so not waiting all day
-24/7 Service, but after 10:30pm it might be more, but at least they are available.

Steve was fun and took care of the problem quickly and explained what he was doing.

Would certainly recommend to anyone in need.

One month ago, I called Discount Plumbing to snake my mainline.  A guy came out, spent an hour and a half complaining about how hard it was to snake my mainline and how he should be charging me more for it.  Then, yesterday, my mainline backed up again.  I called another company based on a neighbor's recommendation and had the job done right. (Discount plumbing used a much smaller auger than the latest sewer cleaner.)  Also, Discount said they would send a person out to put a camera in the mainline, but no one ever showed up once the appointment was scheduled.  I will definitely not be using this company again and do not recommend them to anyone else.

I seriously wonder if the negative reviewers are talking about the same service. Eric was prompt, pleasant, SUPER respectful and responsible about COVID compliance (wore a mask, stayed 6 ft apart, washed hands etc), explained all the issues well, and in the course of our discussion about my home's many plumbing problems (observable with my own eyes), he recommended a few things regarding a kitchen renovation I was planning that saved me $$$. He also showed me how to do some basic maintenance so I wouldn't have to call him for a minor recurring issue. I was so pleased with his work on a bunch of annoying small repair jobs, that I have brought him back for multiple larger plumbing jobs.

My house had BAD plumbing when I bought it -- like multiple elements only held together with tape. Shortly after I moved in, I discovered one toilet mechanism was held together with duct tape. Later, when I got a new dishwasher, I discovered my dishwasher drain hose was held to the main drain stack with electrical tape and it had been causing a slow leak under my floating floor (if I hadn't upgraded my dishwasher it could have been years before I discovered this since it was hidden). I actually ended up paying for a second home inspection after finding this many instances of tape used for plumbing after I moved in, because they were not noted in my original home inspection (I'm going to do a brief side plug for StructureTech the best home inspectors who found all kinds of things I wish I'd known when I bought, I will never use another home inspector again in this state). It's pretty depressing to buy a new house and discover someone did a shockingly shoddy job with the plumbing. I fully trust Eric to steer me in the right direction and to talk me through my options - pros/cons/cost. At this point, over the year, he's fixed multiple issues such as small leaks and running toilets (I can repair a basic running toilet but these were more complicated), installed a new water heater, installed a new sink faucet and garbage disposal, hooked up my new refrigerator's water line. My sewer line backed up and when he was unable to come to the emergency, he recommended another company who could do the job for a reasonable price quickly. I have never felt 'upsold' or like he was unwilling to do a smaller job either (which I can't say about other repairs on my house).

Because so much work had to be done on this house, I got estimates on a few things from other plumbers, and I felt Eric was usually cheaper or on par with the other services while being more pleasant/respectful and providing better service. I had one service be pretty rude to me as woman, quote me an outrageous sum, and indicate they would nickel and dime every little thing. No thanks!

I also want to say having someone who takes COVID prevention seriously is a big stress reliever. Eric always worse a K95 high filtration mask, didn't touch his mask, didn't take it off, didn't have to be nagged about things, unlike some people I've had show up at my house without even bringing a mask.

Highly recommend.

These people are complete Jerks, Devin the Master Plumber is lazy and wants to argue about everything, my wife and I just recently did a complete basement remodel and during the remodel these guys flooded my basement, wouldn't communicate to us what was going on. After my builders were finished with there portions of the project they came and cut additional holes in my walls and didn't patch them up, They never cleaned up after themselves. When they flooded my basement they didn't even bother to send out someone to look at there mess I had to fix it. They are a joke. The customer service is terrible. The master plumber Devjn had the audacity to come in my house corner me in my bathroom and proceed to try to tell me what to do in my own home. Stay away. Don't waste your time because to them coming into your house to do work this is quoted verbatim from the master Plumber. I have it recorded but he said, Your house is just another job, I don't need to work here and We don't need this job. Had I not been stuck I'd of thrown him out of my home. We laid 70,000 for our basement remodel and it's not a job to us it's our home and we wanted things done right and done right the first time. And these guys didn't do that..

Had a problem with a couple of GFI outlets in the kitchen, and Dean came out and took care of it in a half hour. Very nice guy and did a great job at a great price! Thanks!

I'm generally handy around the house so I tried many things including attempting to flush out the clog by dumping boiling water down the drain, using baking soda and vinegar mix and dismantling the drain and snaking the pipe myself... One trip to Menards, three hours and a sore back later finally I gave in and decided to contact a plumber.

I called several plumbers including one plumber that was highly referred by friend. I was told by that company they would charge me double-time due to the weekend and suggested I call back Monday. I called back 8:30 am on Monday and they told me they were fully booked for the next two days and they would call me back if they could fit me in.

The last place I called was Affordable Sewer and Water for the St. Paul area (I live in Maplewood) the operator was professional and gave me and quote which was aproimately $70 cheaper than all the quotes I received that morning plus they were able to schedule me right away so I set an appointment for that afternoon.

My Drain is now free of clogs after the plumber used his 60-foot power snake to clear it out. After all of this I still haven't heard back from the two companies who said they would call back. The plumber was conscious and respectful of my house and put on boot coverings and didn't leave any mess whatsoever. I'm completely satisfied with the service Affordable Sewer and Water has provided, they communicated their fees clearly and efficiently performed the job. I will contact Affordable Sewer and Water first next time I have plumbing needs.

Pros: Clear pricing, overall friendly and professional service, on time

We had a great experience with Southtown Plumbing (as good as you can when your sewer is backed up).  I called in the morning and Brian was able to come that afternoon. Both Brian and the person I talked to on the phone were friendly and helpful. And the price for the service was completely reasonable.

Mark me as a happy customer. They took care of me the day after I called. Boiler Startup and tuneup was $155. The tech was very friendly and super helpful in explaining how to use the system in my new house. I will be using these guys from here on out.

I just saw the other review below, and I'm glad I didn't proceed beyond the initial call.  I needed a ceiling fan replaced. I had actually already removed the old ceiling fan; I needed someone to install the new one.  (I'm actually an electrical power engineer, but I usually pay other people to do my electrical work as I don't  have time to bother with learning building codes, which change all the time and vary by state.

Service Today wanted $100 just to have a look at what you want done and give a cost estimate.  This is ridiculous as this takes maybe 10 minutes (less time in my case because I had already removed the old fan), and they don't even apply the $100 to the actual work.  They also refused to give a ballpark estimate - I would have been fine being given a range, say $250-750, average $500... $750 if x needs to be done, $250 if  if y  

FWIW - we are moving to Phoenix, and we can't wait.  A ceiling fan replacement literally costs ~$90 if you use Amazon Home Services:

Very dissatisfied with the timeframe I was given. I was told between 10:00 and 12:00. I even called that morning to confirm and was told someone would be out to my house between 10 and 12. Received a text at 11:50 that Rick was on his way. 40 minutes later still no Rick. I called and was told he's on his way. Rick arrived at 1:15. Dressed professionally and polite. Rick did a very good job explaining what he did and the results of our furnace. Answered all my questions with great detail and I felt he was efficient. I just wish they could give a better timeline. I missed a half of a day of work waiting.

Before I begin, I want to say that I have a unique situation. When my house was built (far before I bought it) they decided not to make room for a furnace inside the house. Instead, they opted to go with a furnace/air conditioner combo unit on the outside of the house.

My existing combo unit died in 2013. I hired Sabre Heating & Plumbing to install a new unit. On the installation day (Friday, December 20, 2013), I should have realized that Sabre was not the company I should have gone with. I was at work when they installed it. When I returned home, I tried to turn on the furnace but it would not turn on. I decided to look around the new unit to see if there was a power switch or button. I couldn't find one but instead found a pair of fuses just sitting on top of the unit and two wires coming out of the ground, neither attached to anything (see included images). I told them what I saw and the next day they came out and fixed it. Strangely, I did not see the fuses or wires poking out of the ground later.

To protect my investment, I signed up for their Sabre Blue Maintenance Plan. For $300/year, a technician would come out twice a year to make sure the unit was running correctly. For the first few years, everything seemed to be working just fine. I believed that when they came out for the biannual checkup that they were doing a thorough inspection of the unit. Also, since there were different technicians who came out over the years, if one technician missed something then the next one would probably catch it (or so I thought).

Things started to go wrong in the summer of 2018. At the beginning of August 2018, the air conditioner was not cooling my house so I had them come out. I looked back in my email and all I could find was a charge for $106.25. I don't delete emails so I was surprised to find no work order. On 8/16/2018, there was another charge for $108.00 to replace an ARMOD. On 10/11/2018, again my combo unit was having issues and I was charged another $125.00 for a trip fee. Next year on 8/22/2019, I again needed them to come out and repair my unit. This time at $234.00 and again with no work order so that I could not trace back what they did. One month later on 9/20/2019 they had to come out again. This time to replace the TXV at $433.89. The sheer number of issues with my unit should lead me to believe that these $300/year biannual checkups were either not being done or being done by untrained technicians.

This leads to the most recent issue. On 2/4/2020, I noticed my furnace making a loud whirring noise. On the following day, it stopped producing heat. The technician who came out replaced the inducer motor. I asked what I could do to prevent this going forward and he told me that sometimes they just seize up. He got the furnace working but I noticed that there was barely any air pressure coming out of the vents. I was happy the furnace was working so I just let it run for the night. I woke up cold at 3:00 am and saw that the temperature in my house was 56 degrees. I called Sabre again the next day and informed them that the furnace would run for 20 minutes and then shut off. They sent a different technician the following day. After working on it for a number of hours the technician told me that furnace was overheating and that a safety switch was turning it off. I asked him what could be causing it to overheat and he replied: I don't know. He told me that he would increase the high limit so that the overheating would not shut off the furnace. I didn't like this answer so, for the first time, I decided to call another HVAC company, Blue Ox. Within 20 minutes the Blue Ox technician discovered that the evaporator coil was completely blocked by dirt and dust. The reason why it was overheating was that no air was coming through the intake and the motor was trying extra hard to suck in air. In addition to this, the Blue Ox technician noticed that the exhaust vent was still taped inside the furnace where the evaporator coil was. The Sabre technicians who installed the furnace didn't know or even bother to inspect the unit after they had installed it (hence the random fuses and bare wires). Since this exhaust vent had been in there since the installation, it meant that no Sabre technicians had bothered to look at the evaporator coil, not on the numerous times they came out to fix the unit or on the many biannual checkups. In addition, these experts rarely offered solutions and were not even curious as to what the underlying issues were. This makes me believe that they are either severely under-trained, extremely lazy, or unethical. Any way you cut it, it is a good reason to go with someone besides Sabre.

Charged me over $700 to install a garbage disposal,  took less than an hour

Scheduling was a challenge.  I was told the installer would be arriving at a certain time and they never showed up.

The appliance required a bracket that was screwed into my hardwood flooring.  I understand the bracket is a requirement, but when the appliance was slid back in to the bracket it was installed off center (and not by a small amount, it was several inches).  The installer did not take the time to center the appliance on the wall and now more holes will have to be drilled into my flooring.  Simply taking the time to take a quick measurement (under 1 minute) and this could have been avoided.  

While leaving with the box the appliance came in the one of the installers broke a light in my garden lining the pathway.  He then attempted to stick it back in to the ground as if it was fine.  I told the guy it's broken and asked him to just leave it the way it is.  

The installers wheeled this same box up the path when they first brought the appliance to the house, they knocked over a cage that I had protecting a plant (but nothing was damaged).  They didn't hit any of the lights on the way in, there is no reason why one of my lights needed to get damaged on the way out.  It was a careless mistake.

Customer service for MN plumbing took no accountability for their mistakes.  The woman could care less offering no apology and simply said talk to Best Buy.

There were also hidden charges associates with the job.  The installer screwed a valve on to the pipe before connecting the appliance.  I estimate the valve cost less than $5 at Home Depot.  It took him under a minute and they charged $130.  

This company does poor quality work, they have poor customer service skills, and they over charge.  Do yourself a favor and NEVER let MN Plumbing into your home to do work.  There are other companies in the twin cities that are far better options.  I hope this review saves others from having the negative experience that I have had.

Needed some plumbing work done on the shower and had no water in the entire house due to no shutoff valve. I called SNS in the morning and was told I would be contacted by someone. Three hours later I called back after not hearing from anyone and was told someone would call me in fifteen minutes. Two hours later I called for the third time and said I still had not heard back. I was told that it would be mentioned I had called three times and someone would get back to me. No one ever called to see if they could help. I had read good reviews on this company but did not have a good experience on my first attempt.
