Came back from vacations and toilet bowl leaked when flushed. From first call to time when plumber came out, service was exemplary. We were able to get an appointment within 2 days and process was explained to us. Received an email on day of appointment from WaterWorks regarding process and a phone call reminder of our appointment.
Our assigned plumber, Aaron P, called 30 minutes before his arrival. He arrived on schedule. Aaron was very professional throughout the entire service call. There was no mess in our bathroom after the service call -- everything left spic and span. He assessed the problem, presented us with 2 options and gave us both quotes.
He advised us that the less expensive option we chose (replacing the bolts and gasket/seal) might not work as our toilet was quite an old model with non-standard parts. We discussed the implications with him and decided to proceed.
Unfortunately Aaron was unable to fix the problem to his satisfaction. He explained that the angle at which our toilet was originally installed made it impossible to replace seal without a leak. He said because he was unable to guarantee the work, he would not charge us the full fee. We discussed options at that point and he said he would seal the area around the gasket with silicone and that might possibly be a temporary solution. He advised that we will likely have to replace the toilet if that did not work and advised that we could buy our own replacement toilet or get one through WaterWorks. He gave us the prices for both options.
Aaron only charged us for the call-out trip of $39+HST instead of the $250 we would have paid if we had gone with another plumber! Currently, the temporary fix with the silicone around the gasket is working. We realize we will need to replace the toilet and will definitely call WaterWorks to complete the job when the time comes.
We highly recommend WaterWorks and Aaron P. You will get service that is professional, clean and honesty and transparency throughout the entire experience. Do not hesitate to call if you need plumbing service. So glad we found WaterWorks through HomeStars -- positive reviews on the site were accurate and trustworthy.
