Best Pool Repair in Columbus OH

We were in dire straits with a broken sewer line. These folks came out, assessed the problem and got it done in no time. Their plumber Nate was timely, efficient, courteous, and professional. I love having a local company take care of business. Good job Amanda Plumbing!

We have used the same plumber in Reynoldsburg for 30 years.  This year, I decided to try a new company despite not having problems with my regular plumbers.  A clerical mix-up on the correct arrival time caused a minor delay but no tragedy.

The plumber arrived in very good spirits & with very good customer relations began to diagnose the plumbing issue.  After promptly solving one issue he began work on a secondary issue to replace a bathroom sink elbow pipe.  Problem was, he had no correct parts on his truck.  Issue #2 will be skipped.  We were disappointed the proper part weren't loaded on a plumbers truck but again, no tragedy.

Rates are competitive for the industry.  The plumber to customer attentiveness, and verbal skills were well above average.  No creepy weird guy shows up with plumbers butt, just a professional well spoken business man.  Kudos guys!

A Smith & Vasser employee came out to my home. They're polite and efficient. I definitely recommend!

BEWARE - VINYL LINER REPAIR - BEWARE
Before you consider calling American Leak Detection for a pool repair, I think it is fair that you know that this company will only guarantee their work for 48-hours. If they leave, and your pool is still losing water, you have 2 days to find out and report it.

What happens if they patch my liner and the patch comes loose on the third day? Too bad. You just spent $367.00 and have nothing to show for it.
When will they tell me about this policy? They will tell you after you've paid, not before you've paid. If fact, they won't even tell you in person. It will be in an invoice, that is emailed to you, and in an attached document, in the fine print.

What does this $367 cover? Not a whole lot. Their tech came over, looked into my pool, and patched a hole near the edge where my deck was, so that he didn't have to get in the water. He said it was a simple fix and that he could probably just charge me for a leak test (which they didn't). He told me that he ran a test, on a day with 20 mph winds and strong gusts, and that my pool was no longer leaking. (I did not get to see these test results.) I asked him if he checked for any other leaks - I was told no. I asked if he was going to dive into the pool, and check the perimeter, the seams, the skimmer seal. I was told he was not. He told me he guaranteed his work. He told me to watch it for a few days, make sure that it wasn't leaking, and to give them a call if I had any problems.

I immediately marked the water level in the pool, and filled a bucket of water to compare. The water level dropped over half an inch the first day. I marked it again the next day. After a few days, and a couple of days with rain, I checked and I had still lost 3 inches. My bucket had lost 1/4 - I called first thing Monday morning. My pool was still leaking.

I was IMMEDIATELY told that they would not do a single thing. They referred me to their policy - 48 hours - and that if the patch doesn't hold they would have to come back out. I was told that they would only come back out for another $367.00 - they will do NOTHING after 48-hours.
I however, can GUARANTEE that I will not be calling this company again.

I would never recommend this company! I tried them once and got nothing in return but a $948 bill. They said I needed a new thermostat... it was working fine but they installed another one and when I got home the house was freezing! I had to do without heat on the coldest night of the year. So they replaced the thermostat that worked fine with one that was broke. I got charged for$190 plus labor to replace the thermostat with a broken one. The actual service was done on my parents but I live in the guest house and was working unable to stay there and make sure they didn't get taken advantage of. They called Long's out to check everything because they felt like their utilities were too high. They replace my thermostat with a broken one I had to do without heat on the coldest night of the year. When my parents showed me the bill there was nothing but codes on it and it would take a rocket scientist to figure out what in the world you were being charged for. When I  call the owner and asked him to explain the charges he got very defensive. When I told him that the thermostat they put in was not needed and the new one only caused the system to shut down. I told him that my mom and dad could not read that bill and that they installed parts that were not needed. I said I am only watching over my mom and dad and he said yeah and I bet you're a thorn in their side too. I could not believe it! He was supposed to be a professional? He was mad because I intervened and called him out on the charges. It's all coded but bottom line is I would never use that company again! When I mentioned giving him a not-so-good review he called my mother and father and said you better tell your daughter not to post anything negative or I will sue her. He also said I hope she has good homeowners insurance. He was trying to intimidate them.
