Really great service, fair price. Very helpful people
I can't even begin to describe the amazing service I received from Frank and Dollarwise plumbing. I had my hot water tank repaired by a different company a year ago... Over the course of the year, this other company had to come back several times to repair their work... But the water tank would still continuously not work. A couple weeks ago I had to call EPCOR to come out and check the tank again... They found a gas leak. Seeing on social media that I was having issues with the tank, frank contacted me and come over almost immediately. He found several issues that were missed by both EPCOR and the original company that fixed the tank...and repaired them immediately.. He also found a second leak. The professionalism and service from Dollarwise has been superior!! Frank also contacted me several times to ensure that the tank was still working and that I was having no issues. This to me is service that goes above and beyond! For the first time in a year.. I feel secure that not only will I have hot water and no issues with the tank but I am relieved that my family and I are safe! Thank you so much!!
Poor workmanship, shady business and terrible customer service. Hired Dollarwise five years ago to install a back water valve at my property line as well as some miscellaneous plumbing jobs around my home. The first red flag was when Frank (I believe is the owner) demanded full payment upfront. In my experience, no reputable contractor will do business in this way. The most they should ask for is a deposit and possible progress payments. The technician working in my home on the miscellaneous plumbing, went through my home and helped himself to my tools and other supplies like duct tape without asking. I found it odd that he would not have all of his own supplies. The largest problem by far was the back water valve. At the outset of the project, it was agreed that Dollarwise would provide all supplies and remove any waste materials after the installation. After installation was complete, they left my valve access stack without a proper permanent cap and a large slab of waste concrete from the excavation on my property. When I asked Frank about the concrete he said that I could use it for a pad for my garbage bins. When I reminded him that they had agreed to remove the waste, he begrudgingly took it away a couple days later. When I asked him about the permanent cap, he said that I didn't really need one and he never returned to install the proper cap. Only five years after installation, the valve had sunk so badly that the sewer line was no longer aligned with it at the opening or exit. This caused chronic sewer back-ups into our basement (the opposite of what a back water valve is intended for). The city as well as the contractor I hired to fix the job agreed that it was the worst installation they had ever seen. Dollarwise should have braced the valve with something (like concrete) to prevent sagging. Moreover, the reputable contractor advised me that during the Dollarwise install, they failed to recap my water CC valve (next to the back water valve) during the excavation. As a result, the CC valve was filled with dirt which would be problematic if the city ever needed to access it.In response to owner:Invoice # 9698, July 13, 2012 and# 9695, July 11, 2012I also have documentation from the city including footage of your work.The reason I chose NOT to contact Dollarwise to fix the problem was because Frank had been so difficult to deal with and I wanted the problem fixed properly. I can see why it would be easy to say "new owners" and my claims are false, but I assure you this has been my experience with Dollarwise. FYI, Frank is still listed as owner with the BBB.
Very helpful, prompt response, very professional.Both Shane, and John were definitely thinking on their feet. I had a water leak that needed a new faucet; which I provided. But the main shutoff switch under my sink was worn out and plugged. So the entire switch needed replacement. I live in an older warehouse repurposed as a loft; so this replacement doesn't necessarily exist. Shane looked through his entire work truck to find all 12 comparable switches, pulled parts out of them, to build one that worked for me. I was genuinely impressed with them and would definitely recommend them for future repairs if anyone is looking for an smart honest plumber at a very responsive and reasonable rate!
Eddie and Shane were out the next day to fix my furnace which kept going out causing my pipes to freeze. They were polite, informative to my questions and did good work. I would call them them again. Frank, the owner, was also pleasant to deal with. Reasonable prices.
