Olin Plumbing

Called in the morning and Maureen had a plumber to our condo within an hour. Richard was very responsive, diagnosed our problem and helped us determine our plan of action. Olin is our go to plumber

The gas water heater that Olin Plumbing installed for us in January stopped working after 11 months. Olin Plumbing came out within a few hours of us calling them and re-lit the pilot light. The pilot light then went out again a few hours later. Since we knew what the issue was, we lit the pilot light a few more times, only to have it go out within ten minutes each time. Called Olin again in the morning and they sent a plumber (Richard) out immediately. Richard let us know they had researched the heater and that the burner was defective. Olin Plumbing replaced it for us at no charge as it was still under the 1-year warranty. We appreciated the quick response and the friendly service.

DO NOT use this company unless you don't care about overpaying for a routine job. I had then come out to replace 2 shut off valves under the sink and also a simple drain line to the toilet. The valves cost $12 apiece and the line was $10 at Home Depot. Total time on the job was 20-25 minutes. They proceeded to charge me $245 for the first valve replacement then a """"discounted"""" price of $125 for the second. I explained to the manager, Jennifer, that it was the same job and both valves were exactly the same. Was informed they were 2 different jobs and also that I was getting a """"deal"""" with the discounted price for the second job. I then asked her to contact the owner, quite possibly her dad, to discuss further but the verdict was all prices are final and nonnegotiable. Paid almost $400 for lest than a half hours worth of work and $34 in parts. I should have known I was geting ripped off when they charged me $50 for the $10 line. I doubt I will ever use Olin again. Family base, locally owned companies don't take advantage of their local support.

My experience today with Olin Plumbing was excellent. I called on Monday night and the plumber was out the next morning to fix my clogged commode. David was courteous, well informed about how to get the problem solved and I was happy with his work. He even stayed long enough to make sure the obstruction was not just compromised, but made sure it was completely free of the main line as well.

We just had a flooding emergency in the office due to an old water heater. Your man, Mark, showed up and took care of business. When it it was too clogged to drain, he dragged it out and up steps like an animal! Saved the day!!!!

Richard (plumber) did a great job. But the prices set by the owners/managers are ridiculous. $245 for a basic tub drain snaking. And another $255 to replace the drain cap. Gimme a break. $500 total (that's with a """"$30 coupon""""). Call Charles Hero instead for 1/2 price.

Very friendly and responsive plumbers who arrived at my home on time but produced terrible quality work that I ultimately ended up redoing myself. I asked for them to replace my exposed hot/cold water faucets as well as washer drain pipe and replace it with a recessed washer outlet box. The install should have been straight forward. I have 1/2"""" copper pipes that run parallel. The installation could have been done so many different ways but what they chose to do was shove my 1/2"""" pipes into what I'm guessing is a 3/4-1"""" faucet inlet and then did a terrible job at soldering them to keep them in place. They also unnecessarily cut and soldered my pipes in like 4 different places while soldering on repair sleeves for no good reason. On top of that the they burned the outlet box from the soldering work and the hot water valve was not level with the cold. They told me this happens all the time. The total cost of the work was supposed to be $1250. They gave me the option to take $250 off for the burned box or have them replace it and pay the full $1250. I took the discount went to the store and fixed it myself. I couldn't risk them doing that ridiculous soldering stuff anymore. Please see pictures. Overall I wish that I would have just had them install the drain pipe as that is all I really needed them to do. I don't feel as though I should have paid anything for the install of that box. It was literally leaking by the time they left and I had to call them back to fix it immediately after. I ended up throwing away $550 worth of their work and redoing it with higher quality materials for less than $100 and 20 minutes of my time.

First I prefer family owned work over corporate business's when it comes to my home. I was searching for a good Water Heater deal and wanted to continue with a 50G Tank version (preferable Rheem). Olin Plumbing was great over the phone and gave me a """"ball park estimate"""" after answering some simple questions. Their Technician Ramsey called me towards the end of my 4 hour window and showed up shortly after. He was able to confirm the quote, order the water heater and install all in the same day. I will advise that this is normally a two day process. One for the estimate, if you have anything other than an accessible first floor water heater, and the second for installation. Plan accordingly based on what they tell you. Olin will give you a 4 hr window for their technician to visit and while he was not there exactly during the window they did communicate well with me so I was not tied to the house. Ramsey did a great job and all my questions were answered effectively, and he did a great job with the install. He drained and removed my water heater, and installed the new one in under 2 hours. Very high quality work and would definitely recommend in the future. Plumbers are in high demand and there are not many high experience ones left in the industry so make sure you are working with the best. www.plumberstampa.com (813)443-5820 info@olinplumbinginc.com

Doug w/Olin Plumbing came by today to help with a Commercial Urinal Problem. He told me the problem, and suggested that if I went to get the necessary part, I could do the fix myself. I really appreciated his honesty and candor.

I heard of Olin Plumbing from Mike Calta. Doug came out and fixed a clogged kitchen sink today. I called late last night and they came out first thing in the morning. Friendly and fast service. Would definitely recommend!
