Tom was out SUPER quick to fix my leaky kitchen sink drain. He did a great job, and is affordablely priced! He's also installed my battery backup sump pump in the past for me, and I'm very pleased with that work as well. I would highly recommend Tom Ruhl Plumbing, and will definitely call him again for any future plumbing jobs!

Tom Ruhl has been my plumber for 33+ years and I have been 100% satisfied with zero disappointments over that period of time. He put in the original plumbing in my home but is now exclusively repair and or replace. He has done it all for us from faucet leaks to hot water heater replacements and everything in between. He is local, reliable and reasonable. I absolutely do not understand any of the negative reviews on his business and just have to throw the Bullshit flag on them. If you want it done right the first time then you will want to out Tom Ruhl on your phone as your go to plumber. You will not be disappointed.

Unfortunately this was very disappointing, my husband and I were in desperate need of a plumber and we totally get how expensive they get in general and how the prices go by the hour, etc. Well the main issue we had was a leak in our shower which turned out to be an issue with the drain according to the gentleman. Another issue we had was our boiler was not generating hot water and we needed those 2 things fixed asap. With that said let's get to work... My husband explained all of the troubleshooting steps he took to attempt to fix the boiler he said we needed a part that was broken/no good in order to work and to keep the flame on, job number 2, he fixed the drain problem, not to mention that when I was looking for him I noticed he was across the street chatting with my neighbors while I am getting charged by the hour/minute.

I was beyond frustrated. He comes back I find him under my sink performing unauthorized work which I was able to confirm with my husband this was not authorized. Some sort of leak under the sink. Anyhow 2.25 hours 260.00 is unacceptable, When we feel like nothing was done and we ended up with cold water still.

Our plumber have returned from his vacation (thank God) so we never called this business again. Turns out we never needed this part for the boiler, the boiler was just full of dust in order to keep the flame on. 'common sense'

Unfortunately I do not recommend, I feel like people now days rather get money than work and get it done. Sad but true.
