Best Water Heater Repair in Minneapolis MN

I had Mike Justen come out today for a sump pump problem.  I had been told two months ago by a large plumbing company that my 3 year old sump pump was too small and needed to be replaced.  The quote was $2200.  This seemed very high and I declined.  

I told Mike he might as well replace it since it needed to be done.  His quote was $350 for the same thing.  When he began looking at it he told me the pump and the horsepower was fine.  Told me he would not replace it because it did not make sense.  The actual fix was quick and cheap.

There are not many people who would be honest and do the cheap fix.  Mike was honest and professional and very affordable.  I will be using him for any future plumbing work I need done.

This was our first time using Krinkie's and had a fantastic experience. Our furnace wasn't working and so Mike was sent out to our house to fix it. He was extremely knowledgeable and was willing to explain the process and the parts of the furnace. We did use a coupon on their website so we only had to pay for the part. He wore his mask the entire time and was very friendly. I 100% would recommend them if you need anything heating or air done on your home.

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.

Our Kitchen faucet recently broke and needed to be replaced.  After trying to remove it myself, I couldn't get it out so I called another plumbing company to come out and do the work.  Not only did they try to up-sell several different fixes / services, but their estimate was well over $1,000 because they insisted that the valves needed to be replaced before they would change out the faucet.

I called BP Mechanical after telling the other company to get out and Kirsten in the office worked their schedule out so that they could be there the same day.  Both Pat and Kirsten were very friendly and easy to work with and had the job done in less than an hour!   Their rate was 1/10th of what the other company quoted me for the same amount of work.  Knowing that someone like them is in the same city as I am and VERY reliable, I will never call anyone else for any plumbing needs going forward.

Timely and thorough service. Brian was clear in his explanations and left the work area clean and tidy.

After getting nearly taken by Deans (looonnng story) we contacted this firm.  We were overwhelmed by the responsiveness, fairness and overall experience of dealing with them.  It didn't go perfect - when they hauled the new water heater in, the delivery guy totally smashed our dogs wooden gated area (dog was fine after recovering from the loud noise, etc.)  Weld promised reimbursement and promptly delivered (along with Starbucks gift cards for our trouble).   Will happily recommend them in the future!

Awesome service and VERY fast response. We did a load of laundry one day to find that our slow-draining laundry sink became a no-draining laundry sink. I messaged them around 8pm and someone came out right away the next morning (I completely forget his name, but he was great). After a nasty unclogged sink and HUGE rush of water, it is now draining perfectly and we couldn't be happier. Thanks for the quick, awesome service.

In the past, I've called a plumber, had the work done and never wanted to call the same plumber again.  I've used St. Paul Pipeworks three times now.  Each time I've received excellent service, they fix all the items on my checklist each visit, and if they can't do something, they explain why, so that it makes sense to me.  Communication with St. Paul Pipeworks is excellent from the first call where they get a description of the problem(s) and schedule a time and day, to the person who does the work.  Their staff is knowledgeable, professional and personable.  Before beginning any work, they assess the problems while at my home, then give an estimate of what it will cost.  St. Paul Pipeworks is outstanding, trustworthy, and I never want to call anyone but their company now.

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.

It is the worst feeling in the world to walk into your basement and to be in standing water from your main drain backing up. We called Discount Plumbing for the first time and wow were we ever impressed! They were able to come immediately! They were more affordable than anyone else and that didn't mean sacrificing professionalism and knowledge to have an affordable service provided! Cory was our technician and he was so kind, professional, and knowledgeable. I cannot recommend Discount plumbing enough! We will definitely be calling them again in the future. It puts your mind at ease knowing you have a good plumber in your back pocket. Especially when you own an old home. Thank you!

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!

I hired this company to help with electrical work in my new house. An electrician arrived on Nov 29th and I talked to him about the 5 or so things I needed done, such as installing an electrical outlet outside and new ceiling lighting and fans. He didn't do any actual work on the visit, nor did he charge me, but he also never followed up. I called the company on Dec. 7th to follow up on getting the work done and they said they needed to issue a quote first. Here it is now Dec 17th and I still haven't heard anything from them.

They charge more than most attorneys. 600.00 dollars for 30 minutes. Joke. Coupons ya right. They just raise there quote to cover the coupon.

Finally had enough of the shower turning into a bath mid-way through washing my hair, and decided that something must be done. One week and a failed experiment in DIY plumbing later, I decided that something ELSE must be done, and that it would involve a professional.

Google brought me to Augie. His website was informative and, given the option, I'll usually go with a local small business. However, when I called, the recording on the other end of the line told me he was away fulfilling his obligation with the National Guard. I certainly couldn't fault him for that, but the clog had only been getting worse, and this could not wait. Dejectedly, I called a big chain drain-cleaning company, navigated the phone tree, and got put on hold twice, when a familiar number popped back up on my screen--Auggie called me back. He was free. He wanted to clean my drain. Things were starting to turn around.

He showed up promptly, right when he said he would, even though it was the weekend. Super-friendly. He quickly diagnosed and solved the problem, even with my old pipes, even though I had the type of trap he was hoping I didn't. He even gave me some advise about insulting my pipes and whatnot. Nice guy. Doesn't take credit cards. No big deal.

In conclusion: An absolute pleasure to do business with.

Five years ago, Service Today installed a new furnace and AC unit. They sold me on a premium warranty - 12 years all parts and labor. Since then, I've had a handful of repairs and absolutely nothing is covered by the warranty. There's always a different excuse and the techs will make stuff up on the spot on why it's not covered.

Recently, my AC unit was blowing warm air. I called Service Today and a tech came out. He then called his supervisor to come out and together they spent four hours - mostly in the basement looking at my furnace and ducts, not the AC unit. They charged me $400+ - a $79 trip fee (fair) and a $300+ diagnostic (unfair). Why a diagnostic where the tech figures out what's wrong isn't considered labor covered by a warranty? Who knows.

After four hours, the one tech left and the supervisor explained that I didn't have enough return vents in the house and that would be necessary to regulate the temp inside. He said I only had four and needed one in every bedroom and living area (so six). Apparently, the office would call the next day with an estimate. Well, I went around an counted the return vents and I have six of them - one in every room and living area, so that was a pretty obvious attempt to rip me off.

But what about the AC unit that I had them out there in the first place? Well there's a leak on the setline and that isn't covered under the warranty because he was guessing ice fell on it over the winter. Even though there's absolutely no visible damage or any indication this was true, the warranty doesn't cover it because it's an act of God. He then said they'd pump some coolant in the unit to hold me over until it got fixed. The first tech came back and did that for about five minutes and left. And...still warm air. He didn't actually put any in (which I later confirmed with another company).

Over the next two weeks, I called and called and was passed off to different people trying to get an estimate. Every time, it was like they had no idea what I was talking about. Finally, after five or six calls to them, the send me an estimate for $2200 to find the leak and fix it. So when they were out for four hours previously, they apparently didn't do any of that because they were too busy looking for a larger, more expensive thing unrelated to my issue. Also, the entire amount was purely for labor, which again isn't covered on the parts and labor warranty.

I called another company and they gave me an estimate for $400 to fix everything (this included the trip fee, diagnostic and labor). What they said was that when Service Today installed it, their welds on the setline were done so poorly, it was destined to fail. It had nothing to do with falling ice. I called a friend who is a commercial HVAC tech. He came over and confirmed that the install was the problem (said it was one of the worst he'd ever seen) and fixed it for free in about 60 minutes. It took him about 15 minutes to find the leak, weld it properly and add coolant. Since then, it's been working great.

So my advice is to never, ever use this company for any reason.

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.

Sabre is an exceptional contractor who did great work for me.  After dealing with several contractors upon moving into a new home, Sabre ranks near the top for quality, timeliness, and customer service.  They came to finish a job after another contractor had several employees quite and became non-communicative.  

I recommend Sabre if you are seeking a reliable contractor to work with.

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.

Timely, proficient, and good customer service. From the initial phone call when I was explained what the experience with the service representative would be like, to the actual fixing of the breakage created by Centerpoint Energy. I'd take a few stars from Centerpoint and give them to BFP if I could. It wasn't cheap, but the technician went above and beyond which is why I would certainly recommend them to anyone.
