Recommended Customer Reviews

Absolutely not. I called a 24-hour service due to a plumbing emergency and they sent this man over. Intentionally tried to confuse us with jargon. Wanted to charge $485 just to shut the water off here. Seeing the reviews here of similar treatment, I would absolutely not have called him directly.

Overpriced * Ineffective * Hack:
I tried many plumbers over the years (home and a rental house) and felt I needed to stay with one to get a fair assessment. This plumbers is glib! Talks like he is very knowledgeable but you end up cheated in the end. Last couple of visits, he essentially charged me $250 for a rooter in kitchen sink. Then I recalled him to fix -- once and for all -- my ongoing draining problem there. He said I needed a clean-out (it was stolen by my patio renovation) and I needed a jetting. He charged me $2100. I found out after I'd agreed that he wouldn't be repairing the cutout for the clean-out (see photo), and when a week later, I had slow draining in sink, he said quite coolly that he'd only been able to 'jet' the portion of pipe AFTER the clean-out (as if I should know). I followed his instructions to put in Bio-Clean ($60 bucks a can) every day for 2 wks/later once a month. End result: the sink is backed up, and now so is the dishwasher that will not work. I am thoroughly disgusted. Won't call him back, he'll try to milk me again. DO. NOT. EVER. CALL. THIS. GUY.

Dave Bischof is completely a fraud!!! DO NOT use this man. He came to our house and told us lie after lie. He charged me $770 for a clean out and then he said for him to see whats going with out sewage , he had to use a camera that cost an extra charge. Then he wanted to come back and charge $1385 for more of a cleanout and put root killer because he said the problem that we had was because of our roots from our tree. I then called another plumber and he came down and fixed the problem with one shot. He said it was not the problem with the roots at all, it was because he found an item that was accidentaly thrown in our toilet.

Dave came and fixed our problem in 10-15 mins for a very reasonable price. Saved us a couple thousand dollars in repairs that another plumber suggested.

Don't have any experience with them but if their plumbing is anything like they're driving. One of their drivers just almost ran me off the road. Maybe too old to be driving and maybe he knows plumbing pretty well.

Dave Bischof came on a Sunday night, did two hours of unnecessary work, and charged me over 1200 dollars. The blockage was back 10 hours.
He didn't even reseal the toilet and left a dirty mess everywhere. He ranted about illegals and immigrants. Also didn't warn me about a 3% charge for credit cards. Shockingly bad and dishonest.

I'd love to give these guys no stars. They're unprofessional, lousy, dishonest, and arrogant. Not to mentioned they bicker back and forth when either performing or discussing what the plans are. Dave is arrogant and disrespectful and I'm almost 99% he is racist. At every opportunity he would call out the international manufacturer, ""this is from China"" ""this is a Chinese part"" ""I was surprised when I called and got an American. Usually they're in India"" (proceeded to imitate an Indian accent)
Long story short. Dave got a signed contract and held our landlord accountable for signing it. He literally looked for something to fix and ended up getting $16k instead of the $3,500 on the contract. He is a con and took advantage of our landlord. The work he and his partner did looks ridiculously unprofessional. Strip these guys licenses and DO NOT call them!!!

A crook. Stay away. He tried to intimidate me to pay an invoice for services not even performed and requested supposedly by my tenant but certainly without my authorization. He even had the nerve to threaten me with filing of a mechanics lien if I did not pay his bogus bill. Fortunately, I DO have a real estate brokers license and know something about this particular aspect of real estate law.
The licensing board needs to revoke this guys license.

Everyone be aware!!! I never called this jackass!!! Some plumping company I had left a message for must have forwarded my call to him. If you ever see ther service truck (Dave Bischof) run the other way!!! This guy is a complete crook. I'm sure you all have heard of $99 plumbing service to unclog a drain. In the past I have paid as little as $60 but I think it would be fair to pay $100-200. This clown comes to my pizza shop gives me a long list of potential problems without touching anything and when I told him to snake the drain, he tells me it's going to be a $325 job without taking the p-trap off. When I challenged him, he said, they set the price based on their accounting. Whatever the heck that means! I told him, this is going to be 30min job as I have had it done before and how does he justify charging me so much. This arrogant jerk went back to his answer before, it is based on their company accounting.
Well, I drained the sinks myself, took the P-trap off to find it fully blocked by grease. It took me about 30 min because I did not have a shop vaccume to drain the sinks quickly. I pracklty threw him out but not before he charged me $89 cash. He said cash or check only, no credit card! What a prick! I did not argue and paid his $89 but not before telling him, he should be ashamed of himself for trying to rip me off. He did not know that I'm not just a pizza shop owner but I actual am a 51 aeronautical engineer. I only called them because I saw food residue in the sink and assumed it would require snaking which I don't own.
Karma is a bitch and I'm sure tlhe will get what is coming to him. He should be ashamed for trying to take advantage of a small business, especially during this pandemic time!!! What a jerk!!!
I just feel like jackass for not Yelping him before he walked into my shop!

this guy is total rip-off. he entered my property after a tenant called him. refused to tell me what was needed. required that the tenant pay him upfront for unauthorized work. he charged over $ 1,000...that's right over a thousand for two hours of work on a weekday non-emergency call. i am reporting him to the city, state and federal government and any liscensing commissions around. i have no idea what work was done for the charges, because he refused to talk to me, the owner of the property. one star is too much for this so called plumber.
stay away from this guy.
