Best Emergency Services in Minneapolis MN

This guy is scary good and extremely reasonable. I honestly don't think there is anything more he could have done. If there was a sixth star, he would have earned that too.

We bought an 85-year-old house and that means one thing - galvanized pipes.  Otherwise known as swiss cheese, aka, going to leak and burst whenever I feel like it, aka, go ahead you cheapo and roll the dice and not replace me.

I know a plumber back east and he told get rid of the galvi ASAP.  Um, ok.  So I called a few plumbers.  Some were really cheap, like do the math and you wonder it takes X days and Y material, how do you stay in business?  Another big shop in town was very expensive and seemed like they were adding little things here and there to the estimate.

Erickson's guy, Mike, was very nice and was thorough and was clear on not needing things that the other high-priced shop proposed.  He explained the residential codes to me and why I did not need certain things.  He did preface that this was not going to be cheap.  He walked through all the things that needed to be done and how long it took and I realized that this was going to take several days of someone working all day and knocking out walls and ceilings. This was a big project.

Their estimate was expensive, but still about 15% lower than one of the other big guys in town.  But, I got a good feeling about them.  So I gave Erickson the work.

They came in an installed pex and ripped out all the galvanized across 3 floors of my house.  They did an excellent job and would not hesitate having them back in the future.

He was very easy to work with. I was able to schedule service online. I was provided with a quote up front, which was based on service performed rather than hourly. He was able to do the work very soon and on a weekend. He showed up on time, was respectful of my home, and did a great job.

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.

Sewer was plugged! I called early Monday morning and Ruber arrived on time and he surveyed the problem, set up his  machine and cleaned out the tree roots that clogged the sewer line. We were very satisfied with the job and the price of 170.00

We needed two gas lines installed and we thought the quote was extremely high from another company. We contacted Pat and he came right out for an estimate and was extremely reasonable, easy to work with, and FAST. Bonus was he was able to work in the evenings so we did not have to take vacation from work. We will definitely be calling him again for any plumbing needs.

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.

All-around great service.  Needed a basement drain cleaned after it stopped flowing.  He responded to my text inquiry within 40minutes on a Sunday morning and we scheduled work for the next day.  He was prompt and fixed things in about 30 minutes, including some extra runs down the pipe to make sure it was clean beyond the trap.  We appreciate his thoroughness, politeness, promptness and fair price.  Loved the option of scheduling via text too!

Tyler is personable, responsive and got the work done in a timely manner. I look forward to hiring him again in the future!

So grateful for Roman answering his phone at 640 am and getting to my house by 740 as we had an unidentified water problem in our basement. He took care of it and no issues!  Very professional, expedient and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend him and use him again.

We had water just pouring out of a pipe when the upstairs shower was used and found out that the neighbors in our duplex were having similar issues,  our tech Fred (#4155) was just awesome. He did all the work from one unit. He explained how the issue was affected for both units and just fixed it from ours because the neighbors weren't available. Thanks Fred, you saved 4 people from having to share one shower tomorrow morning!!!!

Totally disappointed!

Plumb Right came to my home 2-3 years ago and knocked my socks off with prompt, and friendly service when they installed the disposal under my kitchen sink. It was only natural I would look at the advertising sticker they prominently placed on the disposal, get their phone number, and call Plumb Right when it came time to freshen-up the look of my kitchen with a new sink.

Here is where the fairy tale ends. When I called to ask for an estimate on how much it would cost to remove the old sink & install a new one (it took 10+ rings for someone to answer), I was handed off to Dale who said they would charge a $59 service call to come to my house to look at the sink before they would give me an estimate. Silently I shook my head to make sure the cobwebs were clear and I asked him to give me a ballpark on the removal and installation of a new drop in sink (mind you, this isn't an under-mount or anything complicated). Dale again replied that he couldn't give me that number. I asked, this time a little more direct, while acknowledging it's not a firm quote/ bid, whether or not the cost of the removal of an old sink and the installation of a new sink would be in the tens, hundreds, or several hundreds of dollars range? I told Dale I just wanted this general idea before I made the decision to have them come out and charge me $59 to tell me how much their bid would be. His reply, Well, I guess we cannot help you then.

Clearly they operate on a business model that I don't understand. $59 to come out and tell me if they are going to soak me for $300 (who knows if this is an accurate guess? Not me-- thanks Dale!) to remove and install a drop-in kitchen sink?!

I will continue my search for a plumber that has entered the 21st century, and I encourage you to do so as well. Consumers deserve better. Meanwhile, does anyone know the best way to remove advertising stickers from sink disposals?

terrible, charged $421 just to tell me I need to replace my water heater ( I was told they will charge $175 to check and diagnose the water heater )  , using the situation and charging over what they quote .

I've used this company twice. Once to replace a faucet in my kitchen and second to replace a water heater. Both times they were on-time, courteous and offered a great price for the work/equipment they provided. We got a second quote on the water heater replacement and the difference in price was over $1,000. Highly recommend this company!

Would not recommend this company to even my worst Enemy.   They are nothing more than rip off artist.  Had a technician (used VERY loosely) come out and explain that our a/c unit was going to need some major parts replaced at an exorbitant amount of money $3000 or in his opinion to just replace the whole system for a mere $1000 more.   Happen to get a second opinion on the matter and low and behold for less than the cost of these con-artists to come out and describe all the things wrong with my a/c unit we are up and running cool and comfortable.  I did contact Alex and then also spoke to Greg to allow them to make this right.  They chose not to even attempt to make this right.  I would RUN from this company there are so many more out there that are better and that are actually TRUSTWORTHY.   They will belittle you, talk down to you and this basically explains how they do business.

We have had several boiler/furnaces installed in our rental properties and in our house. They all had a light to indicate that it had power. Service Today installed a boiler system in one of our rentals. No light. 2 technicians(?) came out and stared at the furnace. The manual was right there on top of the furnace. They indicated we needed an electrician to hook it up some more. An appointment was made for a electrician to come out. My husband came over to let the electrician in, he, my husband, walked in to the boiler room before the electrician got there. The furnace had a light on and was producing heat. Under certain conditions that system shuts down and does not produce a light. We don't appreciate a big bill for a wrong diagnosis. The technicians(?) need to become more familiar with the products they deal with and read the manual.

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.

They have an online scheduling system, which I used, but they never showed up. I got confirmation emails and texts, even reminder texts. But no show, no call, no nothing.

Was terrible, from not showing up first day to being late .. He knew I had a home warranty, they were the ones that found him.  He knew the rules.
This process took over a month to get resolved, He finally came out to the house and told me I had 3 leaks under my kitchen sink.  After numerous attempts from myself and the home warranty to get the $$ for fixing the problems he finally came back with a cost of:
$717 for the kitchen faucet (I told him no, I bought one myself and had it installed)
$225.00 garbage disposal
$184.00 old garbage disposal (I could of thrown this away myself after looking at the invoice)
$115.00 piping repair.
The day the problems were corrected he told me to pay bill in full and that he wasn't dealing with the home warranty company and that if I didn't pay him he was charging me an additional $160 per hour. I paid him as I wanted them out of my house.  All this took place while I had the home warranty on the phone explaining to him they would be issuing him a check that very day!  But Jason from Big River Plumbing, didn't care! my after thought were I should of called the police and had them removed from my property.  
Then Jason had the nerve to send me an email thanking me for their business and wished me a 'blessed' day.. Really?!?!?

Save your headaches! this problem took over a month to get resolved.  Don't use them for any projects!!!
