Bamford Plumbing & Heating

Seyed K.

All I can say is that I am so happy to finally find an honest and efficient plumber. I was work with them while out of town which is normally difficult if not impossible with other contractors in my experience. His initial quote was on the spot, job was done in a timely matter and even sent me pictures after everything was done making my life a lot easier will repeat business!

Finding a reasonably affordable, relatively available, and experienced plumber is a difficult task. I screened several plumbing professionals (large and small) over the phone; Was not comfortable providing a pre-estimate deposit during scheduling.

After discovering this one-man plumber on Yelp, I made the call - figuring I would continue screening the next 5 plumbers on my list. Once Doug answered my screening questions (and those specifically pertaining to my plumbing issue), and recognizing my plumbing issue was not urgent, I willingly scheduled an appointment.

I am quite pleased with my decision. Doug was extremely proficient, thorough - going beyond the normal as in preventative maintenance, as well as cleaned the workspace afterwards.

Because of my own schedule, I watch the clock so my only ( minor) concern was the duration of the visit which had no bearing on the service price (quoted earlier).

Nonetheless, my kitchen plumbing has been in working order since. I found this service exceeding my expectations, affordable, and recommendable. When future plumbing need arises, I will be contacting Bamford Plumbing.

Well Doug did it again! :D
He provided fast and professional service and was very accurate on his assessment of the issue given by us over the phone. He was fair on the billing and was a great help! I highly recommend Bamford plumbing. AAA+++

He's honest and competent. He could have gouged us for a problem and didn't do so. I now know who I will call with any plumbing issues I have in the future.

Quick response, great job, was very easy for both my tenant and I to deal with. I called after 5:00, and they were there the next morning. I called after the job was done and gave my cc number over the phone. Fast, good, and easy!

Finding reliable contractors is a challenge given I don't live in the area. I would highly recommend them!

On request, I emailed Doug a list of specific issues I needed addressed. He responded to my email, but did not quote any prices. When he arrived that evening (see below re timing), he wanted $170 to replace a simple drain stopper. If I had known that, I wouldn't have wasted either of our times.
Speaking of times, he was supposed to come out between 2-3, so I had taken off work. Though he did call to say he was running late due to an expected job requirement at another location, he estimated he'd be here between 3-5. He arrived at 6:30 p.m. without another call. I could have saved my day off from work.
He ended up fixing one toilet (for $173 - so why was a simple stopper so much?), and did a good job on that - though that required a run to Home Depot and he was here until 9:00 p.m.! I was ready for bed!
Would not use again.

Doug is fantastic. I bought a foreclosed house five months ago and have probably had him at my house at least five or six times already for various plumbing issues. He is always there when he says he will be, he does great work and explains what and why he's doing what he's doing, and his rates are very reasonable. I highly recommend him!

They were great. They came all the way out to North East, MD and yet didn't charge extra for the drive. Explained everything clearly and was willing to teach me what went wrong with my running toilet. Gave me different options to fix it and how much each would cost.

Doug is great!

This morning he came out to relight my pilot light. I had tried and couldn't get it to work. But here's the great thing. He showed me what I was doing wrong, and how to do it right. He could've kept that knowledge to himself, and if so, I'd have to call someone to do it again. But instead, he showed me how. And now, I will call him first each time. And I will recommend him to friends, and here on Yelp!

I should mention that he had been to my home about a year ago to replace my garbage disposal. That was a very good experience as well!
