Reviews
Hired them for basic hookup of kitchen sink plumbing. I found their price very expensive as compared to similar jobs. The work was done fine but I found their professionalism lacking. Arrived later than timeframe given, opened a large hole in wall but didn't seal until I requested their return for final payment, and didn't send pictures upon completion. Overall, the work quality is good but they are expensive and unprofessional. I will not use again.
He did excellent work
Saved me time and money. Thank you
Ricardo was great—responsive, punctual, professional, and able to resolve our shower issue with relative ease. When the initial solution didn’t work, he quickly adjusted and moved on to snaking the drain line, which ultimately took care of the problem. He also gave us a comprehensive overview of what was going on and offered helpful suggestions for improvements we could consider in the future if we decide to make the investment. Overall, we were extremely happy with Ricardo and the service he provided. We’ll definitely keep his information on hand for any future plumbing-related issues and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable plumber.
Ricardo came out to fix my gas dryer, and I had a great experience! He arrived on time, was very professional, and answered every question I had. He also gave me some great recommendations and made sure everything was taken care of properly. I really appreciate his service and will definitely be working with him again. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Job was done fast and with no problems.
Immediate response. Clogged laundry sink turned into a bigger issue, years of gunk totally closed the pipes. Floor was dug out all pipes replaced. Pricing was very reasonable for the the amount of labor required.
I was very happy with this contractor. Quality of work, professionalism, attention to detail and competitively priced 5 stars all the way around.
I’ll start with the good. Job got done, pro was professional acting, pro had quick availability. The bad, although the job was not an emergency, the pro deemed it as so, just to up-charge and did not give an estimate before doing the job. My wife works from home and was not able to fully supervise the job. After it was all said and done, the pro charged us $385 to snake a kitchen sink drain, which took about an hour. We would have told him no if he had given us an estimate that high. You can charge whatever you want, but not letting a client know the price upfront is shady. Very deceptive practices. Proceed with caution.
Ricardo is a fantastic plumber. He replaced my tub spout that was leaking, and was very knowledgable and communicative (even after running into some unexpected issues). The end result is great and I'll definitely be a repeat customer. Very good pricing as well.
RICARDO from GENERAL PLUMBING and DRAIN came for a 9:00 appointment at 9:50. Diagnosed my plumbing issue but never gave me a price.... I should have known then. He said he needed to get a part that would cost between $40-$80 and then return between 2-3 to install, I said ok. He left and I remembered that I have a house warranty that I had never used. I called them and they informed me that I could only use their plumbers. I called Ricardo immediately and let him know and ask if he had gotten the part yet. He said "NO" and i let him know what the warranty company said, apologized, and asked that he return my part. He immediately said he would when I pay him his money. I said that I didnt realize there was a service fee. He said he would call Angi to ask their policy and call me back. In the meantime, I backtracked and realized he was from Thumbtack. I called Thumbtack to complain and while speaking with them they said that he had deposited a message to my account. The message stated that he had bought the part and that I had cancelled the appointment which was a total lie. I still needed the part and would have paid him for it. He never called me back and when I called him I asked what Angi said and he said that they said to pay him the $99. I told him that I knew he was from Thumbtack not Angi and that he was a liar and I plan to report him to the BBB. My problem is that now, I have no water AT ALL in my home without that broken part, before I could, at least, turn the water on when needed then turn it back off. Some people are so unscrupulous. I am a senior citizen and feel so taken advantage of. I just pray that the warranty company plumber comes soon and that RICARDO of GENERAL PLUMBING and DRAIN gets the karma that he deserves.
I needed help because my tub wouldn’t drain & my faucet wouldn’t stop leaking & was rusted. Ricardo was able to replace the faucet & unclogged the drain. Thank you for your help!
