Kerwin Plumbing & Heating

I paid $200 5 weeks ago to have my sink unclogged and today its clogged again. I called to ask if they guarantee their work she said only up too 30 days I understand this policy but since I'm 10 days past I felt they could have worked with me or at least gave a discount. In the past when my sink has been unclogged I go 2-3 years with out problems. She just said sorry have a good day. Wont go with this company again!

Friendly, honest, experienced. Always willing to accommodate. My clients and I can't say enough about Kerwin.

Same story as other recent reviews. Was referred by a friend based on past good reputation. The receptionist would not quote me rates, guy showed up late, in and out in 20 minutes without even re-gluing or taping the pipes after he was finished. Just slapped them together dry. Then I got a bill 10 days later (after it said it was due) for $175. Can’t think of a way to be worse at something. Anyone want to start a plumbing company with me as a backer?

We have called Kerwin Plumbing over the years for our plumbing issues and they have always been prompt and reasonably priced. Unfortunately that is no longer the case. We called them for a non-emergency plumbing issue this week. We had a leaking valve on the water line to a toilet. The gentleman who came out several days after our call was very polite and efficient. He was here for approximately 30 minutes. He not only replaced the valve, he also replaced the flapper on the inside of the tank. The charge for approximately 30 minutes of work? $275!!!!! This is outrageous. The gentleman gave us a "senior discount" and we actually paid $261.25, and that is STILL outrageous! We will not be calling them again, and I am telling all the people I have referred to Kerwin over the years about their current rates.

Their prices are outrageous. $215 an hour for a plumber and an unskilled helper... Half a days work cost $1100... just in labor, not including materials. A good plumber isn't cheap, and there is overhead, and insurance, and office workers. But $150 an hour should be plenty to cover your labor and your overhead. $215 an hour is just gouging. My usual plumber was booked up for the next month, and I had a tile guy come available, so I had to just bite the bullet and find someone local to make it ready. But, looking at my bill now, I sort of wish I just waited it out.
