Best Pipe Installation in Detroit MI

East Plumbing is exceptional. The service was knowledgeable, friendly and afforable. Great company, will use again.

Quick and affordable service. My sump pump died on a Monday and they were here the next day and had it replaced in no time.

Actually the second time I've had them out (2 separate issues) -- both times they were prompt, polite, cleaned up so nicely, great work and reasonably priced.

I lived through the Great Rainfall of 2014 (also known as the 500 Year Storm), watching helplessly as water poured out the basement drain in my home. I, like 75% of Huntington Woods and much of Berkley, faced a total downstairs renovation and gutting of many belongings. This experience gave me a strong incentive to build up a good relationship with a local plumber able to respond quickly and comprehensively.

Now that evil drain cannot be cemented in and somehow I cannot convince the city to tear out their antiquated 1920s sewer and stormwater system for something remotely modern. Blah blah taxes angry citizens blah. The next best option is a reliable plumbing service, and Nelson Brothers fits the bill. I like their proximity to Berkley, for one, and their understanding for our finicky piping situation around here.

One boring rainstorm this last month caused my floor drain to backup and after a bit of Doctor Googling, I suspected the problem to be clogged traps. A bit of foul 'sewer gas' smell accompanied flushing toilets or running the washing machine. I called at 9:30 AM. They had someone out by 2 PM at the house.

Jesse showed up on time, then went to town on that questionable drain using his magic tools and hocus-pocus hands, sawing through the blockages and helpfully reporting I have an evil oak ent in the front yard trying to infiltrate my pipes. Why on earth an oak thinks a sewer/house outlet pipe is worth breaking and entering like a looter in a hurricane, I have no idea. This will have to be a secondary repair that rips up the yard, but he cleared out enough debris to allow me comfort when doing simple tasks like having a shower or running the laundry.

In and out in an hour, he charged us about $180. A visit and diagnosis would be $90 if we did nothing, another $20 if you're outside the area. Fortunately my place is all of a mile and change from their head office so no problem there. Further, Jesse did a great job informing me about my options to avoid an expensive yard rip out to fix a pipe, to the tune of annual maintenance. Sure, it's not perfect, but I'll take $180 annually over hundreds of dollars if I weren't already planning to replace my front lawn and take the evil oak to task.

Prompt service, rapid corrections, and top notch customer service make me a happy customer and Nelson Brothers is firmly established as my plumbing company of choice.

PROTIP: If you're not sure about having work done, know you'll pay about $90 for having them come out for a consultation.

Steve was very responsive through Yelp and was able to immediately give me good quote. Once hired, he came and did a great job replacing our outdoor water spigot. He was great to work with and I'd definitely recommend him.

Tried to price gouge me last Saturday on a water heater malfunction that they installed 7 months ago. Said I needed a thermocoupler but the pilot tube was actually cracked. I needed a whole new water heater which was warrantied by the manufacturer but I had to have another plumber come out because this plumber left because I wouldn't pay him 400 dollars to install a new thermocoupler. Not professional, safe, or customer service oriented. Note the plumber just called concerning this review. He called my husband a liar and threatened to come over to our house because he only lives a couple blocks away to kick my b@@ch a$$ husband's butt. Very unprofessional and threatening

I have been buying properties for 17 years and Michael accomplished what few other plumbers will even attempt. he was referred to me from a friend in common and went and looked at my clogged drain the same day. I had six inches of water in the basement AND my stairs to the basement collapsed from the previous plumber who attempted it and broke them with his heavy equipment. Mike went the same day, got his equipment down there and worked on the drain until he got it freed up. excellent communication. great pricing and incredible service. thanks Mike. I appreciate the excellent service.

I messaged them on yelp got a reply and a next day appointment within 20 minutes. Incredible customer service. When they came out and determined that my issue wouldn't require their services they gave me some advice and insisted I didn't owe them anything for coming out. If I ever need the services they provide in the future they'll be my first phone call. Highly recommend them.

I put a pin hole in a gas line to our dryer (it had a separate shutoff valve, so it wasn't an emergency).. I called and talked to Doug, and he said he'd have Kyle out first thing the next morning. He was on time, with the part he needed to fix it, and 30 minutes later he was finished. Great service and extremely friendly. Would highly recommend! Thanks!

Promised a quick install of my new furnace in order to get my business then left me with a cold house for the holiday.  Then after never completing the install, they charged my credit card the final post installation payment and I left trying to hire a professional and reputable company to finish the install.  Getting my money back from Birmingham -we stay up nights figuring new ways to screw you - Plumbing and other things, will require a lawsuit.  Avoid at all costs ( and avoid all the costs!)

If you see one of their trucks on the road, get out of its way.  Most likely looking at his phone and not paying attention to the road.  What a joke.

I've used these guys several times.  While nobody likes the added expense of needing a plumber, I've found them to be fair and honest.  At least 3 different guys have been sent to our house - all have been competent, courteous, timely, and helpful.  I highly recommend them.

Horrible , sewage pump installed incorrectly causing the pump to run continuously-I paid a ton and what I got was a damaged pump . It took many phone calls to talk too anybody and when I did the person was dismissive and unconcerned - that's what I got for choosing roto rooter

Ronald Brosseau has 2 companies listed and 2 websites for the same thing - he's listed as Ron's plumbing & heating
ronsplumbingandheating.c… and also Iron Pipe Plumbing

Don't be fooled by his low prices and the promise that he won't charge if he can't do anything.  He charged me $40 and claimed he opened the sewer 'half-way'.  I was too sick to double-check.  The truth is, he left the back door to my house unlocked, the cap is missing from the clean-out drain, and the clean-out drain has been moved to the center of the room.  I can no longer use any part of my plumbing.  IT'S MUCH WORSE!
Oh, and he was very, very rude.

Thornton & Grooms came to my home in response to a clogged toilet drain. The technician quickly discovered that the clog was in the main line between the clean out and septic tank. He then determined that snaking would be the best plan. He ran the snake twice (5 minutes) with no attachments and said that the clog was too dense for a snake. He explained that another technician would come out with a camera and then discuss next steps. After the camera crew performed their inspection they offered two proposals. Either $1100 for a hydro-flush or $2200 for a hydro-flush and clean out of the cast iron section of the line. Knowing that this sounded strange I had another plumber come out to evaluate.

The second plumber snaked the line many times with a different attachments combined with hose water and cleared the clog in 20 minutes for $250. To say I'm disappointed about the general business practice of T&G is an understatement. Steer clear of this company unless you don't mind wasting money.

If they'd just serviced our furnace like we called them out to do, I'd give them five stars. However, we had a 2.5-year-old furnace installed by another company, which had no appointments for a month, so my husband called Hoover to come out, because they were available the following week (something like that).
Hoover showed up, did the inspection/service and told my husband our 2.5-year-old furnace was the wrong size for the house. If we were lucky it might hang on a few years.
As I was leaving work my husband called with the bad news. I put the phone on speaker and let him talk. He gave an explanation, then said our current furnace might last a year or two.
By the time I got home I was a bit fried, said give us a quote in case we do decide to replace the thing. In the meantime I would contact the original company and have them take a look. Before we left the Hoover guy told us his estimate for new furnaces (he gave several options) were good for 30 days, and we might be lucky and the existing furnace could last the winter. He also said prices might go up in the new year, so that was something to keep in mind.
With covid and labor and supply shortages it sounded plausible. But we were tired and a bit shellshocked.
I did some research, asking around. Everyone seemed to indicate the furnace we had was the right size for our home.
I called the original installer and had them came out. They ran some diagnostics and did a small patch job which should fix the error reading that came up. They also reminded us the furnace itself is still under warranty (even though the labor warranty had expired).
I don't know if the guy from Hoover was working under commission or if he was new and made some mistake in calculations. That he kept shortening the potential lifespan of our furnace was a red flag, however.

Contacted Lakeside to unclog/snake my sewer line in the basement, they sent out a young plumber that was inexperienced and unable to perform the job correctly. Contacted them after to explain that they did a bad job and they dodged me for a few days. When we finally received a response they scheduled a time for a different person to come out but they never showed up. I had to call another company to do the job the right way, so I paid for the same service twice since Lakeside did not do it correctly. Definitely, would Not Recommend, horrible  experience, poor management and staff.

I purchased a new furnace and AC unit from Reliance 3 years ago and tonight was my sixth service call.  Every winter the furnace fails to start up and every spring the AC unit doesnt work.  At least this technician was honest - he admitted he didnt know what the problem is or how to fix it.  He also admitted that the technicians are not trained to properly fix some of the product that Reliance sells to its customers.  Last month it took 3 different technicians over a week to fix the furnace (each one ordered the wrong parts).  I spoke to their customer service manager to get a credit or to just replace the equipment and she still hasnt gotten back to me.  Stay away from Reliance!!!!!!
