Arthur C.Had them repair 2 toilets and a clogged sink. They arrived on time. Completed the job in estimated time frame. Bill was identical to the estimate.
Hi, our first YELP service review ever. In reading reviews it seems highly dependent on who actually shows up from this company. We were quoted 165 to show up in the driveway plus 20 for a clogged sink drain. The bozo shows up, arrogantly mansplains to my wife, "" well ma'am I can get out of here for $300-$400."" Tried to upsell her a $2000 shower remodel (instead of helping her change faucet washers) and threw his scheduling lady under the bus for not knowing what she was talking about when she quoted the price for the drain- Classy! Rightly so, my wife asked the clown to leave immediately. This was a terrible customer experience, can't emphasize enough how little I think of Tarvin plumbing/remodelling/restoration or whatever they are. This was a total joke and waste of our time. As a courtesy, I will report who we actually used for this basic job and what they charged. Mike T, don't bother responding, I'm not interested in another long explanation of how your business works. There's lots of plumbers out there.
My kitchen sink was sagging after only six years. I contacted Tarvin Plumbing last week. Veronica explained the procedure: Sink needed to be disconnected on day one. Countertop fabricator would make sink repair on day two. Sink would be be reconnected on day three. It took me several calls to coordinate arrangements with Tarvin and the countertop fabricator who installed my sink six years ago. This Wednesday Chris came from Tarvin and disconnected the sink. He also informed me that my faucet needed to be replaced and that he could install it when he came today to reconnect the sink. I purchased the faucet. The fabricator came yesterday and made the repair to the sagging sink. Chris came back again today to reconnect and to install the faucet. Chris was professional and pleasant. He worked efficiently and quietly. He swept the under-the-sink cabinet. He tested to make sure there were no leaks, ran the dishwasher, and then asked me to check his work. Everything was done to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Tarvin Plumbing. I used them years ago when I lived on my farm. Plumbing is expensive, but when they do it right, it's worth it! They didn't disappointment me then nor today.
Guy B.I have used another plumber for most of my needs, but never again. Tarvin came quickly and actually was less than the estimated price. Here's a tip. I was initially quoted an appointment in 3 days, but I asked to be on a wait list if an appointment opened. I got a service call the same day. Highly recommended.
Chris B.Needed quick service on a leak beneath a bathroom sink. Our house was going on the market in days. Though booked, Tarvin put me on their call list in case a plumber in my area became available. I missed the window on the first time they called, but the second time I managed to catch them and they showed up on time, gave me an accurate assessment and fair quote, and completed the work quickly. They cleaned up well after themselves. All and all, a great experience.
We've worked with Tarvin at 4 houses over 33 years and have always been happy with them. They are very professional and friendly, and they always solve the problem.
Called in Apollo first and they couldn't unplug the drain (but still charged me). Suggested I spend thousands of dollars cutting the wall and pipe out.
Called Tarvin next. They got the job done.
Tar in Plumbing wrote an untruthful response to my post of poor service. Called the office was plumber was here. The woman was rude and I could hear her saying I am a complainer and to leave. The plumber was here maybe 25 minutes and he seemed unconcerned about my plumbing issues.
Caroline I.Tarvin plumbers helped me with toilet installs and a water heater install and their follow up is great. Many years ago we had trouble locating a large enough gas water heater and they drove to KY to locate one. They will go the extra mile and the owner called us personally to see that this was done.
Tarvin replaced a broken flush valve on my guest toilet. I had purchased a replacement valve thinking of doing the work myself, but decided to let a professional do it. I asked if the valve purchased by me was acceptable. I was told after it was installed that it was about an inch shorter than the original. Because of that, I have to now hold down the flush handle until the bowl empties, and the supply valve now constantly leaks water because the float does not go up high enough to turn it off. So after the $214 payment, I still have a defective toilet. I contacted Tarvin and offered to purchase a new flush valve and supply valve from them if they would not charge another installation fee. They refused. They refused to offer any consideration for the problem. I feel that a professional plumber should have told me that the flush valve would not work rather than install it and then tell me it wouldn't work properly.
