Great communication with figuring out the best solution for moving my gas pipe for my stove.
He was messy and smelled bad. He also claimed that the disposal I had bought was incorrect and didn’t fit, so I went out to purchase a replacement. However, when I returned and showed him the new one, he realized that the first one did fit and that he had been mistaken. Consequently, I now have to return the other one I had bought. I requested a discount for the inconvenience he caused, but he refused. He did manage to install and make the new disposal work, which is a positive outcome. Nevertheless, I would not hire him again unless it was to rectify his previous mistakes.
Bill was very responsive and did a thorough job changing our backyard gas fitting so that it had the proper hookup for our new BBQ grill.
His price was $140 for a garbage disposal replacement. I was in the kitchen while he did the work. At the end, he said he needed to add a “missing washer” and charged another $5. I would have preferred that he tell me about the additional charge when he discovered the issue, rather than at the end. He also refused to take the broken garbage disposal with him and told me I could simply put it in the regular garbage bin in San Francisco. I later checked Recology's disposal rules and found that this information was incorrect. Given his extensive experience doing garbage disposal replacements in San Francisco, I was very disappointed to be given incorrect disposal instructions. I do not recommend this plumber.
Bill installed an earthquake auto shutoff gas valve that’s required by my home insurance. Bill is very trustworthy, did quality work and is very reasonably priced. I’d definitely recommend him!
Remove old garbage disposal then install new garbage disposal processing well include find out plumbing tube was damaged as worn. He has brought a new tube ready for installing same time.
Good plumber, very honest, I will be working with him in the future!
Horrible experience and super unprofessional. Attempted to up-charge me for consultation and then changed the price once I said his price listed was $25 and not the $65 he was trying to charge. He waited until 25 min prior to appt to cancel the consultation to say "I am going to pass on the work". I would not recommend.
McLaren Plumping was very responsive, effective, helpful, and valuable in getting my earthquake shutoff valve installed. Would work with them again. Thank you!
