I called Priority Plumbing because I my Kitchen sink suddenly stopped. The lady on the phone was very friendly and kind. When Greg showed up, he was equally as nice and very courteous. He wore shoe covers, used drop sheets and was able to diagnose the problem right away. He offerred me several options to choose from which was great. I chose to power wash the drainline rather than snake it, because I had been dumping a lot of grease down the line and it would have been a re-occuring problem, had I just opted to snake it. He cleaned up the work area and left it smelling ilke a citrus orange smell. I am very impressed with Priority Plumbing. Everything I have read about the high level service was true, and I would definiatley use them again.

Clogged Kitchen Drain

Priority Plumbing comes to your home and takes a lot of time to put together 3 options for you to get your kitchen drain unclogged. After more than a 1/2 hour, I was presented with the most expensive option - which was to jet the pipes - at $1,154. The least expensive option to snake the drain would have set me back more than $300 and Greg was skeptical if that would work as he could not pinpoint the clog. Instead, I paid Greg his $49 fee and sent him on his way. My regular guys, who incidentally have a Homestars Star, came later that day. I had called them in the morning, but they were busy, so I told them I'd call them back if I couldn't find someone else, as I was in a pinch. As usual, they arrived, didn't waste my time (pretty great as I have children) and charged me $175 to snake the drain. I told my guy about the experience with Priority earlier in the day and he was incredulous. He said the clog was plain as day. Anyway, this is my first negative review of a company on Homestars, but I feel obligated to report this as I don't think anyone likes to feel ripped off.

Dear Lisa,
You told us that your sink clogs frequently and you have to call someone to clear it repeatedly. This is why we offered you a permanent solution to your problem, to "jet the pipes". If you add up the cost of everytime you hire someone to snake it, you will see that you are not getting such a hot deal after all. I want to point out that your regular guy did not come when you needed him, did not have the jetter equipment and is happy to charge you $175 3-4 times a year. I do not consider this to be good service and I stand by our method of providing our customers with Fast Service and Relevant options to choose from. I am sorry that you prefer a band aid solution, but most of our clients prefer a more professional approach.

Sink and shower repair

When I called Priority the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They arranged an appointment for me the following day with their plumber calling me when he was on the way. Aside from the high quality work which they did, the extra steps the company takes such as putting on slippers when entering your home, and providing a pre-set list of the price for different services make them the company I will deal with whenever I have any plumbing issues in the future.

New Toilets Installed

I had purchased 2 new toilets and as my regular choice of companies, i hired Priority Plumbing to install them. Greg did a fantastic job installing them, he made sure they were 100% solid and level. He hauled away the old ones and cleaned up the mess. He was extremely pleasant to deal with. Priority is a good company to deal with. What more can i say, I will continue to use Priority Plumbing.

Many thanks Steven and as I told your girl on the phone this morning even before you showed up, I think you guys have excellent customer service. You were here when you said you would, you were very professional and explained everything to me and then again to my wife, you found the leak when 3 other professional contractors before you couldn't and you even answered my questions after the fact. This was the best plumbing experience I have ever had.

Thanks again and we'll definitely be recommending you to our friends!

Cheers,

This is what sets us apart from other companies. We specialize in Residential Service. This means that we are well trained in determining problems and fixing them. Anyone out of trade school can put together pipes from new, but renovation and new construction Plumbers get lost when troubleshooting. Thank you for choosing Priority Plumbing.

I called Priority Plumbing yesterday because my old laundry tub was leaking again. I have been using Priority Plumbing as well as recommending them to clients for several years now. Mike was very professional as usual, and informed me that to save space in my laundry room, I could install a single laundry tub, in place of the old double tub. I thought that was a great idea!
He installed the new laundry tub right away and hauled off the old bags of broken up concrete for me. They cleaned up as usual, and now I have much more room for storage shelving! I will continue to recommend Priority Plumbing to all my friends and family.

putting in a vanity unit with associated plumbing and 2 towel rails onto the wall

Greg came to install the vanity unit. To do the plumbing and put the base 'in situ' followed by the faucets and then the top.
The unit came WITH wooden 'feet', which HE did NOT discover till AFTER he'd done the plumbing, by which time it was too late, unless he undid all the work he'd just done.
He 'hid' the feet in the 2nd drawer. I KNOW this because in my GLEE I'd been into the bathroom several times before he came back to install it properly-(we had to have official condo people turning off the water which did waste more time) just to 'finally' enjoy having a real vanity in there.
I checked each drawer, as one does just for the pleasure of them sliding in and out. A middle aged woman 'thing'- if you will.
Naturally all drawers are empty as they should be.
He comes the next day and finishes installing. At this point in my excitement I had forgotten about the feet being part of it but stubbing my feet on the base VERY soon reminded me AND finding a 'lump' in the 2nd drawer, cleverly hidden from the top view, (one could see into the top drawers before the top went on which is why he put these 'feet' in LATE, when he UNPACKED them LATE>
IF he had unpacked EVERYTHING FIRST, we wouldn't be in this position. I was asked if I'd given them a PICTURE! These plumbers are not in kindergarden! IF one unpacks ALL one finds everything BEFORE one starts. AND to add insult to injury 'Justin' at the office said he would 'believe my plumber over you' and Greg had ALSO put up 2 towel rails that have BOTH since come down, in the last week, and they've only been UP 4-5 weeks in the first place. AND they are TRYING to charge an EXTRA $500 for rectifying GREG's own blunder and pass the buck to us. $500 because HE discovered something late! We don't HAVE $500 to go towards that! And whilst we get no response lately we're STILL stubbing our feet and have paid $1500 for someone not to check everything out FIRST!
Thank you.

Hazel,

First of all, I would like to mention that I have responded to your concerns each and every time you have called us. I would like to recap the entire job from beginning to end. July 13 we signed a work order to install a customer supplied vanity and 2 faucets, what should have been a one day job, for $1345.00. On july 23rd we sent 2 licensed plumbers downtown to Yonge and Bloor, to complete the work according to the agreement. When we arrived, the water to your unit could not be shut off, so we were unable to complete the work. This is billable time, as the delay was not our fault, and we had 2 plumbers spend 1/2 a day and had scheduled them off for the entire day. We came back on July 27th a second time to complete the work, and this time, the vanity that the manufacturer sent to you was cracked. Whenever we do not supply the parts, we are not responsible for defects of any kind, this is the benefit of us supplying parts,in that you receive a warranty for our parts and labor. Again we had scheduled 2 licensed plumbers off for an entire day and had sent them home with no work. As when working with any professional, this time is billable as it is not our fault for the delay. We came back a 3rd time to do the work on August 6th, and this time we completed the work according to your instruction and satisfaction and you signed off on the completed work order after inspecting the work. You called us back the next day to say that the feet had not been installed on the vanity. When I asked Greg about it, he said that he knew nothing about it and that you never gave him the feet, verbal or written instructions or a picture, prior to the installation. We did want you to be happy however and tried to rectify the issues with you, so we sent 2 plumbers once again on Aug. 11th, to put the feet on for you. Once again there was a delay, as this time you did not have the screw for the feet you wanted us to install. Once again we had sent 2 licensed plumbers down town and spent half a day. Once again this is billable time since we did not supply the parts or fixtures. It is unfair to say that "we tried to pass the buck to you." After all of this, we submitted an invoice for the additional trips to you, and you refuse to pay us. Therefore we can no longer provide service to you, and for that I am truly sorry. We really tried to make you happy, and if we only had to come back once or even twice to do the work and you had your materials in order, we wouldn't have even bothered billing you any extra time.
We simply do not turn our backs on our customers. We feel like your Review is a misleading representation of our company, and our culture of customer service. I can only hope that people reading this will understand our position, not hold this against us, read and focus on the very many positive reviews we have received. Thank You. Austin
Thank you.
