Best Leak Detection in Minneapolis MN

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.

Our dishwasher needed to be anchored and Tyler got to our home on time and was very pleasant and did a quick and efficient. Would highly recommend him and use him again!

I sent out a message on Yelp to many plumbers and Roman the owner of Rescue Sewer and Drian replied immediately.
I had a leaking water heater and a tub faucet handle that was broken and leaking. He was able to come the same day and fix both things minus the leak on the faucet. He replaced my old water heater with a new one and hauled away the old one. The leak on the faucet is my own fault for waiting so long to call a plumber. He will be coming back in a few weeks to address the issue.
He was here for about 5 hours bless his heart!
I would definitely recommend Roman to fix any of your plumbing problems. He's very professional, nice and explains what the issues are and what needs to be done.  Please Support your small business people!!

On short notice, Joe made time in his schedule to come out and diagnose my plumbing issue.  He gave me a fair price and an honest assessment, connecting me with the crew needed to to the job.  I absolutely recommend Joe and would hire him again.

This company took care of all my needs and issues and went above and beyond then the usual plumbing place. First I had a leaky kitchen faucet and when I called they scheduled me in right away! They came on time with the right tools and also had the parts I wanted. I'll post a pic so that everyone can see and they even offered a 10% military discount to our family!

I live in Portland Oregon but needed to find a plumber for my mother near Shoreview Minnesota.  Based on reviews, reputation and location I selected Roto-Rooter, New Brighton.  My mother reported prompt, friendly, professional service along with excellent customer service when she needed to call the office for a follow-up topic. I recommend Roto-Rooter Plumbing & Water Cleanup.  They are even good enough for your mother!

We had Bruckmueller Plumbing install the water line on our new refrigerator, and install our new dishwasher and garbage disposal. He was very professional and did an excellent job!

We called the company with an emergency for a commercial building we manage out of state.  They were very responsive and communicated each step of the process often.  They went above and beyond and solved issues we weren't aware of.  I wish all service providers could follow their example.  They not only 'Plum Rite but do it right.

We live by Minnehaha Creek in a 77 year old house. A couple of days ago our basement started flooding from groundwater after torrential rain during flash flood alerts. The drain was working slowly, but then got clogged with debris and the utility area ended up with about 6 inches of standing water. The water seeped into the finished area and the carpet is toast.

I first called RR and couldn't get a bit of information from them regarding price. I called twice. The wait time was 3-6 hours and I scheduled for that. Then I looked at more reviews and from what I had read from irate clients, it looked like it would be a minimum of $249. Since there was no charge for a service call I kept the appointment, but decided to call someone else. I got an immediate response from my text to Augie's and he said it would be late afternoon and would call when he had a better time frame.

RR came out and from across the room quoted $249. Shocker! I asked why they couldn't tell me that on the phone given that they had the exact same info (my account of the situation) as he and he gave the same reply the phone operators had. We quote by the job and we have to assess onsite. Again, he gave me a quote from across the room. I'm sorry they wasted a trip, but... If I hadn't already called Augie's I probably would have paid it since I wouldn't have known when someone else could come out.

From Augie's website, it looked like it would be $155. About an hour and a half before he came, we had gotten a sump pump and it was working, but not very fast due to limitation of our hose. Augie came in, got straight to work and the water rushed out very rapidly. I took the sump pump to our neighbor and Augie was gone by the time I got back. I, somewhat cautiously, asked my husband how much it had cost. It was $102. $99 for the clean out and $3 for a part. Apparently the charge was for a typical drain.

Wow!! His number is going on the fridge.

I just wish that, given the age of our house, we had done a preventative clean out before the rain. It might have saved the carpet.

As always Aarts's and Tim's Plumbing provided us outstanding service at a reasonable price!  They know what they are doing and are focused on service!  My garbage disposal froze-up and they were there to diagnose the problem and replace the unit the same day.  John and Jeff were focused on what we needed and providing service in a timely and helpful way.  They were thoughtful of our house and did not leave a single trace of their work.  This is perhaps the 5th or 6th time we have turned to them for help and every experience has been great!

We had moved into our new home. We decided to have the bibs on the outside spickets replaced, they were old one of them was very rusted and wouldn't turn. So my husband called metro and set up an appt. They were here on time and the tech who did the work was very nice. He had noticed that the main water shut off was in a bad location so he wanted to move it. We agreed. Whilst doing that he ended up damaging the water softener. He was unable to fix that day so another tech came a few days later. Noticed it was unable to be fixed and the entire softener had to be replaced. They did offer a discount for one of theirs and free install. After a couple months we had the softener installed and it is working great. The softener is a bit bigger than I expected but over all nice.

Called to have a/c serviced at 1:30 pm on Friday of a holiday weekend. We were amazed to have a tech at our house within 1h30 as we fully expected to schedule for the following week. Courteous and knowledgable, the tech not only got our a/c up and running but also spotted and fixed a gas leak we didn't know we had! So glad we called! We will definitely use them again, and highly recommend to those looking for professional, no-hassle service.

Selling my house and buyer requested a furnace tune up. Per ServiceToday's website will also conduct any necessary parts cleaning and/or minor repairs, test for carbon monoxide, and do a full check of all safety controls They failed to do that so I called and talked to Christi on the phone and they said those can be done at an additional charge usually. I was not made aware of this at all. I thought the $79 tune up was for everything. They also told me I had a cracked heater exchange via a remote controlled camera. I had another Company come out a couple hours later determine that my heat Exchange was not cracked. I showed them what ServiceToday showed me was a crack and they actually removed parts of my furnace to get an eye view and determined there was no crack and then also did a C02 combustion test which came back clean. I asked Christi why they did not perform a C02 test to assure the crack was there and she gave me an excuse that they see anything they red tag it and tell me to replace my furnace. After looking at other reviews this seems to be a common practice with them to get more business. Run as fast as you can from these scam artists. I will be disputing my charge on the my credit card and recommend everyone else to avoid them.

I see Sabre vans coming in and out of my neighborhood all of the time. So we thought we would use them when we wanted to get estimates on heating our garage.
We called three times. Left messages all three times. No call backs. Called one more time and we got an appointment for today at 12pm. Guess what? He is a no show. Sigh. Please do not use them. Find someone else. They are not responsive and have poor customer service.

Call ANYWHERE else!! I'd rather pay cash to the shadiest looking plumber on Craigslist. Took their office 6 months to send me an initial bill. A tech came to my home in September 2018 and I was not billed until March 2019. My husband and I called 3 times for an explanation on our bill and waited 2 entire billing periods for an explanation from the owner. Once a payment plan was FINALLY agreed upon, I paid within 20 days. They had already sent me to collections!!!! This place is a money hungry joke. I spoke to 3 people - only 1 was any type of apologetic for the multiple delays in clearing this up. So much for supporting local business.

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.

$6,300 for a residential water heater? I don't think so! Avoid this rip-off company.

The tankless water heater Dean's insisted we needed (because it was going to be challenging to vent a standard one the way our old water heater was vented) was going to cost us $5,994. The highest price we could find online for the same model is $1,600 from plumbing supply stores. When we realized the big price discrepancy, we asked for a breakdown of Dean's $5,994 price for the water heater. They said they can't provide that information. After 5 minutes of research, we suspected we were getting totally ripped off.

We cancelled our install appointment immediately and contacted a couple other local licensed home services companies for estimates. Both came out and spent time looking at our basement and venting. Both said Dean's was ripping us off, and we don't even need a tankless water heater as there is no issue with the venting. We got a power vent water heater installed for $2,500 ($4,000 LESS than what Dean's was going to charge us! Even if we had needed a tankless, why were they charging several thousand $ more than it costs?)

Sadly, we still paid Dean's $1,000 for the four hours they spent seeing if a new thermal couple would fix old water heater and eventually giving us their ripoff estimate. We still came out ahead by almost $3,000 by going with someone else.

In addition to price, the other part of the experience that was noticeably different with Dean's was how slick and salesy it felt compared to the other home services companies.

They sold and installed the wrong part for our furnace. We had to hire another contractor the next day and pay for the correct part AGAIN. They refuse to give us our $468 back for a part that was completely useless!! Do NOT whatever you do use this company. They are scammers!!!

Worst Plumber ever! Came to my house to fix
a water pipe banging problem. Billed me $500
for a water hammer and installation. After he left
the problem continued. He would not re-visit the
problem with out further charges. Had a
professional look at the situation and found out
the problem was due to leaking toilets...which he
fixed for very little cost. That solved the problem.
Shame on you Matt.
