I had the honour and pleasure to meet Dave this morning. He resolved the plumbing issue we were experiencing in our home. He arrived within the time the company suggested he would. He was very professional and courteous.I would use DS Plumbing again and recommend this company to family and friends.

Alex was a great help. Altough we already knew what our plumbing problem was (Our hot water tap was jammed), he quickly fixed it and replaced it, even checking our cold water tap to see how it was working without being asked. I'm an animal lover, and so is Alex and the company, so that is a definite plus in my book!

Thank you Alanna for your awesome comments! Animals are a huge part of our company (the office cats would agree!) When we hire staff, part of the process is needing to be an animal lover! Thanks again!

My wife and I are extremely pleased with the service and quality of work performed. Your on-line booking system is excellent, followed up with time confirmations and updates including info on the technician and his impending arrival time. Dave Smythe was excellent, examining the work to be done and recommending solutions in a professional- yet easy-to-understand fashion. Quality of the work was first rate- all problems solved. We also appreciated the thoroughness of the work, post job testing, and total inspection of our house water supply and drainage system with recommendations for impending work. Dave took the time and clearly answered all our questions. The work was performed in an extremely tidy and clean fashion- fuss and muss free! Overall an absolute top-notch experience and job. DS Plumbing is highly recommended. Thank-You.

Replacement of cast iron waste stack, lead and galvanized steel plumbing

We are so impressed with this company. They are polite, professional, hard-working, and trustworthy. Their system of emailing homeowners with a photo of the plumber when he is on his way is so appreciated (especially for a woman home alone). Particularly the owner, Dave, goes above and beyond explaining the work he's doing and educating the homeowner on how their home works. They are upfront with pricing and charge the same for a job even if they run into snags and have to stay longer. After 10 hours of seriously hard physical work, two young plumbers still took the time to sweep, clean the counters, and leave our home in great condition. I have already recommended these guys and will continue to do so.

Plumbing

The work was efficient and effective. The worker kept the area pretty clean during and after the job. The price was right and it's still working great!

Only complaint is no one I talked to seemed to be particularly informative or talkative when it came to additional services or questions for future use. Other than that no problem.

Repair toilet and replace section of pipe in kitchen under sink

The plumbing company came on time. Two men came to work on the repairs. They did the toilet repair quickly with a small part that cost very little but tried to sell me a toilet that they just so happened to have in their truck that was $800.00. I said no thank you and that was far too expensive for me. The head fellow argued that this was a very good price for that particular toilet. The replacement to the kitchen pipe was done well and the two men were out promptly. Good work but I would not hire them again for them trying to sell me an expensive toilet that I did not need. They lost a customer because of that.

I am sorry that your experience was so not as good as it could have been. I have gone through our records to find what details I could.
From what I could find, we saw you in July of 2009, at that time there was some work required for the kitchen sink as the piping was cracked, this was carried out to your satisfaction as you mention above; Thank you.
Our notes also mention that the toilet was older and a crack was seen in the underside of the tank. With the crack in the tank alone, I would expect our technicians to offer you a new toilet as it making repairs to a toilet in that condition would not necessarily be in your best interest due to the probability that the crack could rupture at some point causing extensive damage.
The toilets we carry on our vans (not $800) are our deluxe model and though they have a higher price tag; are excellent toilets, come with a 5 year trouble free warranty and the price include installation with removal and disposal of the existing one.
You should not have felt pressured into purchasing the toilet as it is not the company philosophy, if you did I apologize although It would have been nice to have heard about it sooner so that I could have addressed it.
If there is any way we can right the customer service experience you had please give us a call.
