Plumber in Garland?

I use Robert Renfro at ###-###-####. I have a ton of rental property and Bobby has taken good care of me for years. Replacing a shower pan is an expensive job, but it involves more than just plumbing - you have to pull the tile out and replace any rotted wood that there might be. You may need both a plumber and a carpenter/tile man. My carpenter tile man is Rudy Riddle (and he's a painter too) at ###-###-####. Your guy sounds like a contractor I used once long ago before I learned a lot more about these things. Every job he bid for me was always $3,000. A thousand to replace the DW is ridiculous. Your problem may be the disposal or it could be the DW, but the labor to replace a DW is under $100, unless some of the cabinet area has to be worked with because it's the wrong size for new DW's - but still $1,000 would be outrageous. Bobby could probably find the source of the water around the dishwasher, as well. Good luck.

I agree that Stanley is the best plumber ever! He is not at Northlake anymore though. Call him at ###-###-####

I recently had a very bad leak in my front yard. After checking out several plumbing companies I called Butler Plumbing Co. They were courteous, professional and went out of their way to help me out in a bad situation including rescheduling some other work and didn't charge me an arm and a leg. They are in Rowlett but I'm sure they do work in Garland. If you want them to give you a price quote you can call them at ###-###-####. I sure as heck wouldn't pay $3000 for the work you described! Best of luck to you.

Dear K.,
My husband does home repair work. We have put in several kitchen and bathroom & shower faucets. Fixed leaks and you name it. Here is our telephone number if you would like to give him a call. The name of his business is
Walker Home Repair

He is located in Rockwall and will come to the customer. He is much more reasonable with his prices. He also has 30yrs experience.

Sounds way too high to me. Get 2 or 3 bids before you decide. My husband does all of our handiwork thankfully and only occasionally have to call a plumber. I know it's getting more expensive but really. Lowes would sell you the diswasher and install cheaper than that. IF you even need a new one. Glad you didn't just take his word for it.

I have used Above All Plumbing Services located in Mesquite. Their phone number is ###-###-####. I have been satisfied with their work, and the prices seem resonable. Good luck, L. W.

I also live in an older home in Garland. Speaks Plumbing Inc. 835 Hopkins St 75040 Garland ###-###-####, was recommended to us by many of our neighbors that have lived here forever. We have used them several times and they seem to be reasonable and fair. Plumbing is very expensive, but the prices you are quoting seem unusually high. I would get several quotes. I know that going into the wall is expensive and you need to be sure that they will do it right and clean up the mess. If you need a new dishwasher, I would have the people you buy it from install it. It should not cost $1,000. I bought a new dishwasher about a year ago at Rodenbaughs in Allen. They are great and they delivered and installed for about $150 or so. I don't remember exactly, but I know it was nowhere near $1,000.

I can refer you to a VERY reasonably priced plumber, and yes he is licensed. His name is Callem (pronounced kay lem) and he can be reached at ###-###-####. He fixed a sink leak, an attic leak and replaced and seated two toilets for a friend of mine and charged her less than $200..

I'm not sure who you called but we also have a 70's era home and have always called ABC plumbing. It's in the phone book and we have always been satisfied with his rates and service. You may be getting the run around so beware.

Good Luck

edit...there is no need to take down any parts of your wall..he will simply make a new connection to your old pipe coming from the wall.

the dishwasher...buying a new one from sears or one of the depots and having them install it is a whole lot cheaper than his quote. Not reasonable at all!
There could be any numerous reasons for it leaking...you could google it and see if it is an easy fix or a big repair or a replace. I wouldn't think you would need any cosmetic repairs back there because you can't see it.....

WAY too high,
unless you have a public restroom or something. :oP

We bought our kitchen faucet and my dh went to change it out and ran into the same problem. We are both pretty handy but neither of us know how to sauder so we called our plumber. Cost a whoppping $164 ;o)
Lots more reasonable for a plumbers fee/call.
It was our faucet and he just installed and refit/saudered.

Call Casey at A 2 Z Atomic Plumbing ###-###-####
we couldn't be any more happier with him and any of the work he has done for us. We went through too many bad plumbers before we found him.

here is a link to his website http://www.a2zatomicplumbing.com/

My husband has does handyman work on the side. He's willing to take a look at it. According to him, you dont need a plumber for faucets and dishwasher. Plumber are expensive and more expensive. They seem to charge more for easy jobs.
