Best Pipe Installation in Minneapolis MN

Outstanding-- great communication, easy scheduling, smart and perfect work on clearing out our sewer drain.  Ben was great.  Price was so reasonable.

I called Ouverson Sewer & Water in a panic yesterday. The woman who answered the phone listened to my story about another company pressuring me to make a fast decision about two, very expensive repairs.

At first, she told me that they are a small family owned business and that they fit their camera scope appointments in when they could,  between other paying appointments.  When I called back a half hour later, she spoke to me woman to woman and said it infuriates her to see people trying to take advantage of women and that she was going to make sure that someone would make it to my house that day (yesterday).

The Ouverson Sewer & Water Technician was at my house for maybe 15 mintues total. Within five minutes he had easily pushed his camera through a toilet paper clog that the first company had showed me an insisted was impassable.

Ouverson Sewer & Water charged me nothing, their technician (Matt) showed me that the water was draining through the pipe with ease and potentially saved me $7500 / $8500 that the other company was trying to fleece.

Ouverson Sewer & Water came highly recommended. I hope that you never need them, but if you do, you can bet they will be honest.

We bought a house knowing that the outlets needed to be grounded. I scheduled a time for someone to come take a look and give us a free estimate. Joe arrived and I told him what we wanted done and he did a very thorough job walking through the house, checking outlets, and explaining things. It took some time before we had the finances to schedule the actual work, but I was pleasantly surprised to find they were able to get us on the schedule within 8 days from my calling to schedule. I was also happy that Joe was able to come back to do the installation as he already knew what we were working with. The job ended up taking  slightly longer than expected because of some faulty wiring in the house, but Joe was sure to check in when his estimated time was up and give a progress report and make sure I was okay with him continuing work. The total cost ended up being almost spot on with the estimate. I really appreciate the thoroughness of Joe's work and will certainly be reaching out to Erickson to schedule future projects.

Calling around for a plumber is never fun and usually means something broke and needs to be replaced, which means $$$$$. Pete at PJS Plumbing will be my first call next time and all the time. I called late Friday needing a hot water replacement and got an estimate from Pete which was considerably less than other places. He called around and got me a water heater for the price he said it would be and it was installed almost by the time I woke up on Tuesday. Its funny that I don't even feel like I spent money, but I saved money compared to the 'other guys' prices. I actually rounded off the price and gave Pete more money. I've already recommended him to a friend. Don't change your phone number, I will be calling to use your services again. But hopefully I wont need 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.

An amazing experience! Our basement sink stopped draining late on a Wednesday night. I looked for quotes here on Yelp and woke up on Thursday to a message from Scott at John's Sewer and Drain Cleaning with a quote as well as a few times they could come by that same day and fix the drain (in 2 hour windows, way better than the 8 hours from some places).

The service person arrived on time (slightly early in fact), wore a mask for safety, and went to work. Within half an hour our drain was clean and running like new. He cleaned up after himself and the cost was exactly as quoted.

I felt safe having this person in our home and I REALLY appreciated that they messaged me back over Yelp. I had a couple businesses call me to give me quotes but I really love when businesses communicate in the same way that you've reached out to them!

I will definitely keep John's Sewer and Drain Cleaning at the top of my list the next time we leave too much hair in our sink!

Needed some help installing a new trap and drain on the kitchen sink. Creative PVC work was definitely the order of the day.

Communication was awesome - Pat described what he would do, when he would show up, and did a fantastic job. Right on time and everything as described.

Professional, neat, and even hooked up the faucet that was my honey-do item for when we had a sink again!

Fantastic job - highly recommend this husband-and-wife team!

I had an issue with my toilet where it wouldn't flush because it wouldn't fill with water at all. I reached out to lots of plumbing companies, and St Paul Pipe works reached out to me the same day via text with a quote, because I requested to be reached via text or email. Most of the companies that responded back saying they couldn't give me a quote without coming out, soI was happy to have at least a ballpark figure from Pipe Works.

I set up an appointment for 1:00-3:00pm on 04/19/19, and I got a call around 12:00pm saying they could come early if I was home. Unfortunately, I was still at work so we agreed to keep the 1pm-3pm time frame. They came at 1:15pm, and were done by 1:40, a lot quicker than I expected! I can't remember their names, but both were really nice, and one even said my diy work on the toilet was a decent job lol.

I had to end up having my toilet fill valve and flapper replaced, and I was charged exactly what was quoted, $189 for the repairs, and $89 service fee with a $25 discount. I'm giving five stars because of the quick response time, being given an exact quote before the service, and the fact they came to my house early so I wouldn't have to wait at the house all day. My toilet works perfectly now, thank you!

I called Chris as well as 6 other plumbers on a Sunday and he was the only one who called me back within 10 minutes.   He came within 90 minutes and was extremely thorough.  I felt his prices were fair, especially given it was a weekend.  I would highly recommend him for any plumbing job you need.

Tjk plumbing replaced my water heater today. Dan provided excellent customer service. He was friendly, explained all steps in the process and left everything clean and tidy. I price checked with 2 other companies before choosing TJK. I enjoy supporting smaller companies and my service today is why. Highly recommend.

Tyler arrived a little early, which was fine with me.

I showed him the door in question and he went right to work. He was done in less than 30 minutes. The appointment time was set for an hour, and since I don't fix doors, I had no idea if it would take that long.

Tyler is friendly and professional. I'm happy that I went with Hall The Way Done for this job. I've got another door issue that I want addressed in the spring, and Tyler will be first on my list to get the job done.

One of the things I love most, besides the great job, is that I got an appointment very quickly. My schedule is the only reason why it waited until Friday. I like it when I don't have to rearrange my life for a contractor to come out to do work. With Mother Nature dumping a boatload of snow on us, I was set to work from home, anyway.

Tricia and Tyler are top-notch and I'm happy to do business with them. I suspect that you might feel the same way, too, if you give them the opportunity.

These guys came to fix my clogged kitchen sink. Very prompt service,  though the technician could have been a bit nicer. Overall pleased though, sink had been a problem for a while. They were recommended to me by a friend.

All I can say for this business is that my experience was FANTASTIC!!!  I have been in my home for almost 22 years and had several different jobs done, including plumbing and have never been so pleased, as I was with the work done by Clint.  He had to remove a difficult clog in addition to repairing some damage done by another company, which attempting to do what Clint did so well!  Clint also laid down protection/coverings and did not leave any kind of mess for this 77 year old Senior to clean up!

I had a very bad experience. From a mistake causing water damage to my house, to missed local code that resulted in paying twice to get the job done, to tile chipped by the plumber on final trim installation.  All of the above could be worked out and some were, but overall the owners approach was one of blame and focus on his bottom line rather than my outcome. I hate to leave a small business bad reviews, but as someone who relies heavily on reviews, I wanted the info out there.

Outstanding!!! We had a badly clogged kitchen sink and I had to blindly choose a plumbing company to come out right away. I chose them because they were polite on the phone, have a web site and are family owned.
I was not disappointed! They came within the two hour time window and even called to let me know he was on his way.  DJ was very polite and had great people and customer service skills! Was even patient with my over-reactive dog. He wore foot covers and was very clean conscientious as he worked.
He kept me informed as to what he was doing and what the next step would be if it didn't work. He got it fixed in 2 hours and our drain hasn't been this free flowing since we moved in.
After hearing nightmare stories about certain plumbing companies- I was relieved they were so wonderful!!! And reasonably priced! I would highly recommend!

Mark came out to my place in North Branch that I'd recently bought and completely set up a new bathroom I'd added in the basement.  I couldn't have been more happy with the quality of his work or the personal integrity that he clearly displayed while in our home.  He's my go-to plumber for as long as I live yet when it comes to any kind of plumbing work needs that may come up.  Such a good & kind man who, because of his years of experience, can do it all & provide professional guidance if needed.

This company attempts to take advantage of the elderly. They gave my parents a quote for almost 6k for a new ac unit. They told them it was shot because of mouse problems. They called another company and they repaired it for $140.00. Do not call these incompetent fools for any reason. The friendly voice when you initially call is a con that will cost you a fortune. Heed my warning! You will forever regret this mistake.

I have a ceiling fun in my staircase with switches on three levels. Wanted a dedicated juice wire just for that fun, independent from the ceiling light (they are at present on the same circuit).
Have done a lot of DIY, but thought a would get a professional for this particular job, since our condo has six levels. The fellow came with a fully equipped truck as the girl on the phone said (what professional doesn't come with the tools of his trade?). Before even asking what was to be done, he presented books of their company's BBB rating which made me wary. Than It took me more than 15 minutes to explain what I wanted a ceiling fan hooked up on a separate circuit - got the feeling that the guy tried very hard not to understand a very simple procedure I wanted. After spending another hour looking at the switchboard and writing estimates he came up with three figures ranging between 3 and 4 thousand dollars with a small discount if I subscribe to their club with a monthly fee... Which would include the rewiring for practically the whole house. And all that for hooking up a ceiling fa... I assume it was the same Paul mentioned in another review (like taking a car for an oil change and being told you need to rebuild the whole engine. This is a classical scam procedure and I don't care how many stars they have from some people they can scare with their ridiculous sales pitch.
BTW. On their flier they advertised a whole house inspection for $49, than after I called, the girl on the phone said he could come within three hours for $59 or within two hours for $79 which already sounded fishy.
Hands off is my advice.

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.

Made an appointment and got a confirmation email and text. Then a reminder email and text the day of the appointmen. Waited around for 2 hours just in case they were running way behind, never showed up or got a phone call. Decided to do the same and go with someone else.
