Olin Plumbing

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!

So disappointed in this company! I would advise you to avoid them at all costs. I had to call another plumbing company to repair the damage done by their employee and still had to pay the inflated price they charged me.

DO NOT call Olin plumbing if you are having plumbing issues, they are by far the worst. Fist off, as someone mentioned below, after they come out and break everything, they only guarantee their work Monday - Friday, so when they come out on Friday and it breaks the next day, we'll you are screwed. We called Olin Plumbing for a running toilet. no big deal, right? Well we had someone come out and he said we needed a new part and charged us almost $300. The next day the toilet completely stopped working. We never had a problem with the toilet not working prior, it was just running. Now, it stopped working completely. In addition, we had them come back out and once again, it stopped working after a day. This time when they came out they said I needed a completely new toilet and it would be $550 dollars. He said, """"this toilet is shot."""" If the toilet was shot, why didn't the guy prior recommend replacing the toilet? Olin plumbing tried to say that it's the first step in fixing a problem, so Olin, you are willing to spend $300 to fix someone that the last guy said was 50/50 to work on a toilet I could be completely new for $400???? RIP OFF The last guy that came out to fix the toilet attempted to charge me. When I told him no way, he hung up on me and threw our employees phone on me he desk and left the salon. Oh yeah, that was after he threatened to rip everything out. I now have water gushing out from the bottom of my toilet when it flushes and it's completely unusable. THANKS OLIN, you managed to take a running toilet and make it unusable.

RUN AWAY!!!!!! Extremely disappointed in their service. To the point, do not trust their """"guarantee"""". If their work fails, as it did in our case, they will NOT honor their service guarantee unless it is Monday through Friday, 8-5. If your plumbing emergency happens when MOST plumbing emergencies happen- you know, like when you're actually home in the morning, evening, or weekend using the plumbing- you get to pay full price for them to come fix their mistake. Not exactly helpful when water is pouring from under your toilet, destroying your hardwood and walls. Thanks for leaving us high and dry, Olin Plumbing!
