Best A/C Installation in Detroit MI

The only plumbing company I will ever call. Always friendly, knowledgeable and do quality work- also, good pricing and communication.

This is the second time I've used Allied Plumbing and both times Christopher and team were amazing. This recent visit to check out a low water pressure issue that (thank God) only required changing out a faucet was also exceptional. Although they had a slammed and busy day, they circled back and finished the job the same day, giving me a chance to go buy the fixture during the gap time. Saved me a bundle. Thanks again, guys!

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.

Had a plumbing emergency and Kyle and Ken both responded. Not only did they resolve the issue they were fantastic to deal with. Both professional and knowledgeable. These two guys did great work and Brock Mechanical is fortunate to have them. Nice job!!

$342.00 to change one washer in the hot water knob of my tub to stop a leaky faucet. Way over priced for the work. Part is about .50 cents. Not happy. Feel like I've been taken advantage of. Only good thing is leak is stopped.

My only criticism it that they wanted $400 to install a dishwasher....no thanks.
Installed it our selves, took  a couple hours...but we saved $400

In fairness I think they do good work and they have a right to charge whatever they want..... but IMO way over-priced....

I was a victim of the polar vortex and my pipes froze. Thank you, Kevin and Mike, for not giving up and brainstorming a way to repair split pipe without disrupting our newly remodeled kitchen. Can't say enough about the response and attention given to us.  Thanks again!

Brian and John have done a couple jobs for me, neither were anything small! I do most of my own stuff, but sometimes there are problems bigger than my abilities/credentials. I waited 6 months after their last job for me, making sure the settled repairs are bonafide and my review is fair for readers. I will not ever hesitate to call them for that next problem that's coming down my calendar.

I called on Sunday nite, Micheal pick up took my info and said there is diagnostic
/service fee of $39.95. He said the person doing the estimate will call between 10a-12p for the next day. I was waiting for the call but I  never receive one by noon so called again. Michael  said he would call me back since he needed to contact the plumber on his eta. A few minutes pass by then I get a call saying he is running late by 30 minutes. I rush home to get thing ready. Just to find out that it was later then expected and the plumber called saying on what street he was on.  The van was not marked and Brandon politely introduce himself. I showed him where the rusted out sewage pipe is leaking from that need replacing. He wanted to see the upstairs bathroom and attic space to figure out an accurate estimate to give. I had to remove a couple stuff in the attic since he wanted to see and he offered to help.He wasn't able to see still because the paneling in the attic. Through out this Brandon was very talkative. 15 minutes to look over plumbing.  Took about 45 min to get it written out since he gave three estimates and said he would give me  a deal. All in all it was informative but the pipe I need replace was in a tight spot and  he mention that they weren't responsible if something else gets damaged. I was like mmm. So I paid the diagnostic fee.

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.

It saddens me to be giving this company a 2-star rating.  This was my experience.

I needed an electrician to remove a wall fan, venting my kitchen to the outside.  I yelped an electrician, and got 5 added quotes from Yelp.  Darin, the owner of Burton HVAC, was the very first response, and he gave me a low-ball quote of $85 fixed rate.

Well, they weren't rated on yelp, and had zero reviews.  Their page said they had been in business for 19 years, and had electricians on staff, among others, so I decided to try googling the company to see if I could find anything else out about them.  They had 5 5-star ratings on google.  This being said, I assumed they were trying to increase their presence on yelp, by taking a loss on a few projects in order to get some 5-star reviews here.  So, I decided to give them a try.

I called the number given in Darin's response, only to be met with Hello.  It took me aback, and I had to ask twice if I was reaching Burton HVAC.  I was, and Darin said he could come straight over!  Unfortunately, it was a Wednesday or Thursday when I called, and I told him I would not be available until the following week.  He could choose his date and time to visit, but it couldn't be Monday.  Darin told me Tuesday at 1pm would work for him, so I put his visit on my calendar.  He also asked me to text him my name, address, and the time and date of the appointment so he could add it to his calendar later.

On Monday, I received an invoice via text for the services he was going to provide.  I've never been billed before meeting the service provider before.  And on Tuesday at 11:47am, I received a text message saying that my appointment at 1pm was 'coming up'.

At 1pm, my son took our dog and left the house for an hour trying to get him out of the way during the service call.  No one had arrived at that point.  At 2pm, my son came home from lunch with our dog, and was surprised to see the fan still in the wall.  I had not received a phone call or any communication from Burton HVAC at this point.

I texted Darin and said Weren't you supposed to be at my house at 1pm today?  His response was Yes I was sending a technician your way and he should have been there at 1:00, let me see what's going on.

Darin called me 10 minutes later to tell me his technician was working on a job that was running over, and he still needed to do another job after that before he could see me!  He then stated that he would just come over himself to do the work.  I said that would be fine, and then he told me that it would be another 2 to 4 hours before he could make it to my house.  I clarified with him that it meant he would be arriving at my house sometime between 4pm and 6pm.  Darin then asked if I would like to be kept in the loop, and I told him Yes!  Please let me know what is going on.

Well, 4pm came and went, 5pm came and went, and 6pm came and went, and STILL no contact from Darin or anyone at Burton HVAC.

At 6:24pm Darin texted.  It read Okay if it's not too late I'll be heading your way.  That will put me there at about 7:30

My husband was home, and was definitely not happy with the way things were going, but at that point I just wanted the work done.  I was not confident that the guy would be able to be on time on any other day, and I didn't want to waste another 7 or 8 hours waiting again, so I told him We'll be here.  And he responded with On my way!

Well, as you can guess, 7:30pm came and went without word from Darin.  At 8:04pm, Darin texted I'm about 5 minutes away.  He arrived by about 8:15pm... for a 1pm appointment.

Darin and his co-worker were very nice.  They were obviously having a long day, but still trying to do the best job they could.  I realized after they arrived that (I'm 99.9% sure) neither one of them were electricians.

They worked really hard to remove the fan from the wall of my house.  It was in there good.  Then, they just cut and capped the live electrical wires and dropped them in the wall of my house!  An electrician would have known that doing that is a violation of building codes.  My husband knew it, but at the time, I did not.

Anyway, the two gentlemen both worked hard while at my house.  The fan is removed.  They even put a towel in the hole and taped a bag over the opening to keep bugs, etc. out until we can have the gap sealed properly.

After they left, I returned a microwave cart to the area below the fan, and plugged it into the electrical receptacle there.  After their visit, there is now no power to that receptacle.  We now need to have another electrician come out to properly remove the electrical wires in the wall and fix the outlet for our microwave.

I feel Darin bit off more than he could chew with my job.  He needed to send an electrician & if one wasn't available, he should have rescheduled.  Or perhaps he should have never quoted my job in the first place.

I have to say I was very disappointed in their work.  They were 2 hours late for the start time, tore up ours AND our neighbors lawn, ruined two of our trees outside and didn't mop up the mess they left in our basement.  I wish I would've checked them out first on BBB, because I went on today to file a complaint and saw that they have a F rating!

Our technician, Columbus, came to our house on 12/6 to repair a re-occurring back-up in our main sewer line. He was so good at explaining to us what was going on under our house, even with pictures, so that we fully understood what the problem was.  He answered all of our questions and made a solid recommendation on how to fix the problem from happening again.  Since we are in the process of finishing our basement, and days away from installing the floors, we were naturally very concerned with this happening again. With a camera, Columbus showed me the inside of our pipes all the way out to the city lines, so we had comfort knowing the problem had been resolved, not just temporarily.  Aside from knowledgeable, Columbus was such a kind and personable man, who really perked us up after a very overwhelming day.

Ronald Brosseau has 2 companies listed and 2 websites for the same thing - he's listed as Ron's plumbing & heating

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.

I requested a vacuum breaker test for backflow certification required by the county.  Rodney, the plumber they sent out, misrepresented what needed to be done to pass certification and suggested a $900 fix that was not required.  An inspector from the county told me that the plumber was incorrect, and I passed the test at no cost.

Coincidentally, the plumber I hired from another company said T&G wanted him to work for them, but he did not like their business practice when they asked him in an interview how he would upsell customers when they need work done.  Beware of this practice with this company.

The only credit I will give the company in this case is that they refunded my money for the service call after I complained.

Seriously over priced. I called to get a ceiling fixture added to a room with no fixture. I realize that's a major job, but their estimate was twice what I  got from another company. And they charge for estimates. The technician was nice enough, but they're too rich for my blood.

i work for a different plumbing company. had a run in with one of your guys. very cocky and looked to have took the job we were hired to do, caused from customer confusion. very bad buisness practice. would not recomend.

had to wait from 8-5 pm to get a new hot water tank installed.  No one showed up or called.  Called the office and they sent out an emergency notice to the manager, promised a call.   Never received a call from the manager that night or the next day.  I even called them 3 times to confirm the appointment the day before and the same day.
