I Had an emergency. I contacted 3 other plumbers before I found Skinner. Everyone quoted crazy prices without even seeing the job! Skinner had a van down within the hour and fixed my issues for a fair price. Will use again.Services: Plumbing pipe repair

I just had some work done yesterday with Skinner. These 2 guys (Dean & Mr C) were GREAT !! Couldn't be more professional and knowledgeable. I had called another service to snake the pipe under the kitchen sink since the water wouldn't go down the drain but he wound up cracking my pipe with water going into the basement. So I called Skinner Plumbing. I told Alex (who answered the phone) what had happened and he dispatched the above guys (as a 1st appointment for the day). They proceeded to crawl under the sink and replaced the corroded pipe (wasn't easy). They tested the water but it still would not go down. We were told, there was another blockage. So they traced the drain pipe down to the basement and precisely cut a 2 1/2 foot section out of the wall and there was the other corroded connection. They removed a section of the pipe and brought a pressure washer type machine that pumped water into the opening until there was no more obstruction. They even added an industrial grease cutter to better flush out the debris. Then they replaced the other section of pipe and made a secure connection melting lead around the coupling. Then tested the water again and everything was running like a charm. These guys saved us and we are grateful They were friendly and knew their business. As a new customer, the bill was also reasonable. Management gave us a break (no pun intended). Thanks again Skinner !!!

When they didn't arrive in the 4hr window, no one called to give me a heads up. I called them and told them that I would not be home 2.5hrs after that window. They said they'd relay that to the dispatcher and inform me if they'd be later than that. I got a call at literally the time I said I'd be out that they would be there any moment. The plumbers who came were polite and fixed our clog quickly, but then the cost was also a shock. 5x what I would have expected. The cost is one thing, but the utter lack of communication about scheduling is unacceptable. I'll not be calling them again if I can help it.
