I had called this company at least five times to fix Toilet valves, Taps and tub valves. Yes, they…read morecame out and fast fixed the problem. They gave me bills of two to $300 each time. Each time it was a different plumber, older guys that looked like they were experienced and honest. Now I wonder about that. I had to call him twice for one toilet to come out the second time and twice for a shower to come out a second time to fix the leak They just fixed weeks earlier. I figured it was the luck of the draw all my stuff was leaking until I found out why. The valves were leaking because the pressure reducing valve leading into the house was blown and the was 120 psi pressure instead of the normal 50 to 65 psi pressure. Not one guy from Norm's checked the pressure of the water coming into the house, would've found out the pressure reducing valve was blown, causing all these leaks. Apparently, these valves should be tested every 3 to 5 years and replaced if they're leaking. I did not know this because I come from a part of the country that do not use pressure reducing valves. I Called ServiceXCEL once and they spotted the problem right off the bat and brought it to my attention

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!…read more FYI: The following information was gathered from two other sources that also inspected the plumbing and correctly determined the problem. My elderly mother-in-law's home had waste water starting to back up into the house so 250 Plumber was called in a panic. Brock came to the residence to investigate and apparently spent 6 hours there (according to the bill), scoped the drain but reportedly went the wrong direction (uphill, when water generally flows downhill). In addition, I believe this also involved installing a new cleanout although one already existed. The scope reportedly went uphill after meeting the tee to the main drain, rather than downhill, and ran into the termination box at the upper end of the drain pipe. I mentioned the situation to the plumber but the plumber stands by his work, despite the errors confirmed by the other plumber and property owner and refuses to negotiate the amount of the bill. Like I said: AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!
