Hungry Plumber

Linda T.

My 3rd time hiring Jason for my plumbing needs, another excellent experience! This time I needed a replacement kitchen faucet installed which also required routing out the hole under the granite as the previous installer had not done it correctly. When the faucet came he did the work in the amount of time and cost he estimated. He's very considerate of the work space and laid a large sheet to keep the area clean. He has always answered or returned my calls promptly, and is pleasant to talk with. In 2013 and 2015, he replaced my water heater drain valve, installed a thermo expansion tank, cleared the tub drain, and replaced my garbage disposal. I am 100% comfortable having Jason work in my home and will continue to call on him for my plumbing needs!

My 1222 faucet cartridge snapped off, which resulted in an instance leak. Hungry Plumber was at my house in less than an hour. They did a great job at quickly fixing the issue, and getting my shower back to a working condition. I was very satisfied with their service. And I will definitely use them again in the future.

I am writing this review, because I think people should be aware of this contractor's actions.This is not about the money.

I hired the Hungry Plumber when one toilet in our house backed up. He quoted a reasonable price and appeared pleasant enough over the phone.

When he got to the house he told me it wasn't the drain at all, but rather our septic tank was full and backing up the drains. He agreed to snake the kitchen sink cleanout but when we ran the water to test, the toilet overflowed again. I asked him to just try to snake the toilet, and he lost his temper and began yelling at me: That he was experienced and I knew nothing.

Because I was home alone at the time, I felt intimidated. I said nothing more, paid him, and he left. Later that week another plumber came out and discovered the problem was tree roots growing into the line from the toilet to the septic tank.

I called the Hungry Plumber to explain the problem and ask for a refund as I didn't think he had done the work as I asked. He lost his temper again, screamed at me on the phone and hung up on me. My husband tried again later with the same result.

I have filed a complaint with the BBB, but I have been reluctant to post a Yelp review because when he receives a negative review, the Hungry Plumber tries to intimidate customers printing the full name and address of customers in his replies.

If he is in any way abusive or uses my personal info in his review, I will go to court and ask for a restraining order. He knows my contact info, my place of residence, and has already been verbally abusive.

Jason was prompt, courteous, and a solid source of information. He was able to diagnose and repair a problem with our water heater and enable our household to get ready for our workdays. All before 8:30 A.M. on a Wednesday. Thanks Jason.

Hungry Plumber was timely, thorough, and very professional. Jason has done work on my rental condo. He has fixed the toilets, cleaned out the kitchen sink, and cleared my bathroom plumbing. His fees are competitive. I will be calling him again soon to do some maintenance on my condo.

Jason was great to get out within an hour to clear my main waste line. His rates SEEMED reasonable and the job was done fast. Except that it wasn't complete and 2 days later our main waste line was backed up again. Jason wouldn't warranty the work he had done two days before and would have charged me again to fix the same problem I had already paid for. He specifically stated, ""No warranty on drain cleaning of any kind"".

I had another plumber out because they were able to get to us quicker than Jason could. Based on the work the second plumber had to do, Jason didn't do a thorough job less than 48 hours before. Additionally the new plumber recommended we put ""root destroyer"" from Home Depot down the drain to keep the roots from coming back, something Jason never mentioned or recommended. Given my experience 2 days later with another plumber I am sorry to say I couldn't possibly recommend the Hungry Plumber.

While I appreciate how quickly Jason came out initially he ultimately didn't solve the problem, educate me, or guarantee his work...not even for 48 hours! Other plumber so spoke to guaranteed the work for 30 days. To me that's just not acceptable especially when I paid half the price to the second plumber.

Great service, especially in an emergency! Very friendly, honest (which is rare), and knowledgeable. Great pricing too. Would recommend him to everyone! He not only fixed the mistake of someone else, but he also did it in no time at all.

Jason is a very prompt, honest plumber. Referred him to my mother, very satisfied with prices and workmanship. Highly recommended.

Jason came to my house much earlier than he initially thought, which was fantastic. Upon looking at the issues we had (broken washer drain and two clogged toilets), he did a great job diagnosing the problem and knowing what had to be done. Unfortunately, Jason couldn't get on the roof to correctly snake the line and clear the issue. Instead, he recommended adding a clean out to the bathroom, which would have brought the total cost toward $3k. Because of this, we had a different crew come in and snake the line from the roof.

While I'm not able to review Jason's work, his personality and willingness to solve our problems was extremely evident. He was a professional the entire time and was extremely helpful in working around our schedule, and the schedule of the contractors we currently have in the house.

Overall I would call Jason again. His rates and personality are top notch. I wish I could have seen the quality of his work, but I have no reason to think it is anything to scoff at.

Jason has come to my house twice now and is great. He's on time, fast with his work, and HONEST. He even talked me through an issue on the phone one time that someone could have totally ripped me off for and charged me to come ""repair"" it. Definitely recommend him.
