Best Sump Pump Installation in Detroit MI
The plumber's price was fair but I did not use them. They responded quickly and the estimate was about what I ended up paying. I didn't use them because I was not in their area. But I was impressed by his communication and how quickly her responded.

Chris was our plumber and he was amazing! He took the time to explain everything to us that was wrong, what he would have to do to fix it, and helped us to understand the decision we would need to make. I highly recommend universal plumbing and sewer.

Great experience with Allied Plumbing. I needed a toilet repaired. Called him on a Saturday morning and he was at my house 30 minutes later and completed the repair.
Great job!
Great job!

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 had an emergency with a frozen pipe that had not yet burst. Even though they were busy, they came right over and flushed the icy sludge out of the pipes and no damage. They gave me some ideas to address the causes and prevent any repeat of this problem.

Needed a gas line to be run to a dryer. They gave a price over the phone as an estimate and were close enough to that estimate. Showed up on time, got the job done, and hooked up the new line to the dryer. Was cheaper than several other places I contacted and communication was as good as you can hope for.

Requested to have my sewer drain snaked as part of a home inspection request. Cregger provided a great experience and timely service. The dispatch did not inform the servicemen that it was a sewer snaking based on inspection results, so he did not bring a scope. Fortunately, the servicemen made up for it with effort in doing the job right. My sewer return access was not easily accessible, James made extra effort to access the sewer correctly and do the job right the first time.

I have used first class plumbing on 2 occasions. They are very professional -explaining what it going to take to fix the problem. And they are reasonably priced. These are my plumbing guys now.

Had a tricky problem that took some extra follow up and certainly extra patience. Steve was very helpful and really gave me an education about what was going on. I would highly recommend...very trustworthy.

The short story is DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. The long story is as follows.
In mid-March, I noticed a leak in one of my bathrooms as well as an issue with the hot water in a different bathroom. After trying a few things myself, I was pressed for time and contacted Anytime Plumbing to come to my house in Southfield. My technician was John G and he seemed to be a pretty nice guy, although I questioned his assessments.
He started with the hot water issue in the back bathroom. The shower would get warm-ish at best. There would be one burst of hot water and then showering would be absolutely miserable.
John decided that a part had gone bad inside the on-off/warm-cold handle in my shower. He didn't have the part, so he went somewhere to get it, came back, and installed it. No hot water. His assessment was that I needed a new hot water heater because my current hot water heater runs out of water fast. That's a quote from my receipt. I had an instant hot water heater. There was no reservoir full of water to run out. Still, I agreed that the water heater was failing. My belief all along was that the water heater needed replacing, but John wanted to try this other part. He tried and it didn't work. That happens sometimes, so we went to the next issue.
Moving on to the leaking bathroom. John came in and decided he knew the leak was coming from a knob on my old jacuzzi tub that controlled the jets. Now, this knob was located in an area that was hit by water when both the bath spout and the shower head were on. However, the leak happened only when the shower head was on. I addressed this concern with John--why would this be the leaking area when two sources of water hit it and only one led to leaking? His idea was that the water pressure was harder from the shower head than from the spout. I disagreed, but I let him do his thing because he's the plumber and I'm not. Anyway, based on the location of the knob, he had to cut a hole in the bedroom wall on the other side of the tub for access. Not a big deal to me. He needed to be able to visualize the plumbing. So he started chiseling at my wall and then decided he didn't like that location. Then he measured the area he wanted to cut and marked it all out with a pencil (I will clean this off the wall when I'm done, he said). He cut a 7x7 hole in my wall and believed he identified the leak. He put some lock-tight around the knob, slapped an access panel in the hole, and called the job complete. We couldn't confirm the leak was resolved for 24 hours because it needed time to set.
Guess what the charge was--$425. Yup, I paid $425 to have a new access panel cut into my wall, a $95 part replaced that didn't need replacing, and some lock-tight squeezed around a knob. Not to mention the access panel wall also had a nice quarter-sized hole randomly in the middle where he initially started chiseling as well as pencil marks everywhere like a toddler had been playing. John G never did clean it off as he said he would and now I have drywall work to do. I also paid for the part for the shower that I didn't need and the time it took him to go get the part [that I didn't need]. Had I known I'd be paying for the part even if it didn't work OR the time it took him to drive and get it, I never would have let him do it. When I inspected the shower as he left, the part was actually installed incorrectly--so you couldn't even adjust the heat to the hotter setting! It was on the coldest setting when he tested to see if the new part brought hotter water! Worse yet, the leak continued 24 hours later when I tested it. John G did say I could call and have him come back if it continued to leak, but there was no way I was letting him back into my house. So, for $425 to address a leak and cold water, I was left with a leak and cold water.
On a positive note, John G did quote me $1,100 for a new hot water heater installation. That's a fair price. Still, $425 is nearly half that and this company was not getting any further business from me. They shouldn't get yours either.

Technician did not show up at the scheduled time. I had to reschedule for another day (to come in first thing in the morning).
Technician shows up around 9:00AM (first appointment in the morning) at my front door. He checks the water filtration system I want him to install, that I bought separately based on what neighbors have installed and excellent customer reviews and NSF ratings. He tries to sell me a different water filtration system, which I decline.
Then says that the price to install my water filtration system is TWO GRANDS! I declined because it's too expensive for me for a 2 hour job.
In my opinion he quoted such high cost to install system because he is NOT COMPETENT in installing such system, and wanted to decline doing the job, yet taking the money ($49) for coming out to evaluate the job/location.

We purchased two new 40 gallon water heaters through Home Depot for about $4,000. HD contracted with DRF who in turn contracted with Hoover. Hoover was good on communication, calling and sending texts about the arrival of their technician. They were professional, and cleaned up the area nicely. Unfortunately, the water heaters produced only tepid water in the first 24 hours. The technician returned, and changed the height of a dip tube. That produced hot water, but we had to run the kitchen sink for 4.5 minutes to get water at 110 degrees, despite its location about 30 linear feet from the tanks. On the third visit, a more experienced technician decided we needed significant changes to the way the water came in and out of the tanks, with five new valves and a cost to us of $835. If this had been in the original quote, we might have seen it as reasonable. Now, this project has caused us to be home four days in the last week, and it cost us more than other quotes we received. We are very disappointed.

Good afternoon,
It's funny the a man of professional standards, would come at me with such hostile feed back, truth is I don't drink, and the cans in the yard were left by your staff. We waited for you to be done with the job ( which to this date still ain't done). As for the camper I was living in well we where waiting for you to finish the job so we can move into the house. So as much as you wish to come cross at me let's just say all mine are facts and just like you said when the property was stolen, your not liable for your guys. Well I know in my business I'm responsible for anything that happens during my services on the property this includes my staff. So say what you will you started this job mid summer and here we are in the winter and still no bathroom. We have had to move into other arrangements till spring because of your abilities to leave a job unfinished, as for you claiming to spend more time with my spouse while you sir are married, well look out guys he doesn't care about vows. Some people just don't know what doing good business is.
